Thread: PvPing
hi i am soon a master TK, and i was just wondering how to pvp/duel other professions. since i am doing something seroiusly wrong.
i am 3343 TK and i dueled a 2232 TK. at first i hit blind and stun, then spam hit 2 and then hit CoB, i was incap with her only having lost half her life, and she hit the same moves i did. oh by the way we did not use dizz and KD.
And i get creamed in any PvP i attend.
Jut hoped some TKAs out there would help me, I love been TKA, but helping understand how to combat other players would enchance the fun i am haveing being TK
OK, here are my stategies i used when i wasn't a MD
You v TKA
Well first thing your gonna wanna do is warcry.
This will enable you to get the first hit, therin (if your using KDs/dizzy) winning
If you are using KD, then KD, dizzy, and UA2 (unless you are TKM then KD2 followed by UA3)
If not, just spam UA2 (unless TKM then UA3)
You v Ranged
Yet again first thing your going to want to do is warcry, especially helpful vs commandos or BH
Then go in for the KD/dizzy
If the KD or dizzy doesn't stick, hit them with whichever didn't effect.
Then just UA2 or UA3 your way to victory.
BUT...
If your target decides to kite, get ur ass behind a wall as fast as you can.
What I mean is back your self into a corner where they only way they can hit you is by having to come right next to you.
Good Places for this is just inside a doorway. Step inside then get RIGHT next to the door and against the wall.
Then when your enemy comes in the door lung or KD them, and they are yours.
I think you are right!!
I got the same thing with panic shot. if I use it as first attack, it just does nothing. not even a msg that the target resists delay or so.
Warcry does not work as a first attack. Hit it twice to use it as an opener. Warcry is a little silly in duels for the same reason that KD2 is, though. It's no fun dueling if it's just a matter of who initiates the duel.
p.s., try headhit1, you'll like it ![]()
well, that counts for every delay shot dont you think?
the trick is to let the other duel first, then type: /duel; /lowblow (or any delay/kd move).
this way you normally win every 1 vs 1 pvp fight (mind armor, buffs, ....) = in my case: 12 secs for free
= in your case: kd + dizzy = win
I think what the original poster is getting at though is he'll lose duels even on completely fair grounds.. IE Everyone does the same exact move.
My question to him then is:
Are you wearing armor and they aren't? Perhaps your encumbrance is making you lose
Are they wearing armor and you aren't? Perhaps they have some very awsome armor.
What kind of Vibro's are you using? 190 damage at 2.3 seconds is what I would purchase. If you have less than this keep shopping!

That said any duel can be won with KD/Dizzy or Warcry. As everyone else posted. Just do it to them before they do it to you... There's also no honor in this when dueling. You leave that duel looking like a chump, not a winner.
As for kiters.. Remember Master Brawler gives you a Unarmed Lunge 2.. A 25 meter Knockdown.. If you can't close that gap to 25 meters you're going to die.. plain and simple.
we were on even ground, no armor. no kd/dizzy. just other spesials i have a 40-150 1,6 speed vibro, dont know what the other had.
i tryed it 3 times, i get incap, and she still had half her ham left.
I am human and she was zabrak, but i dont think that has anything to do with it.
Look in your combat log. Are the damage averages similar? Is it possible that she's using food buffs for secondaries? With VKs you can do more damage to yourself than your opponent is doing to you without buffs.
