Thread: kd and cant get up
hey im a master pistoleer and when i get kd i cant get up without relogging, just wondering if anyone is
having this same problem.
2 things can do this dizzy and a delay attack (panickshot and warcry)
dizzy justmakes it so your to dizzy to get up
delay meens some one kd you then delayed you wich meens you cant attack or changs poster for how ever long your delay longest delay time a player can put on you is 20 secs longets a npc can that iv seen is 50 sec done by some special force power a night siter elder used on me lol
but i say your haveing trubel with dizzy it can laste for a long time if a big mob put it on you
This brings up a good point though. When in PvP I have noticed that first thing I always get hit with some sort of knockdown and unfortunately 9 times out of 10 that's the end of me. What on earth can you do to counteract it? It completely takes the fun out of PvP to just get continually knocked down and fired upon.
They might have nerfed Pistoleer-Fencer Dodge stacking, but to my knowledge they haven't nerfed anyone's Defense Vs. X stacking yet -- tack on another +50 Defense Vs. Knockdown from the Fencer tree combined with that from Pistoleer and now you've get +100, and you can get even more from TKA and elsewhere.
Or better yet, just blow off Pistoleer entirely and get the Rifleman/melee god template and you don't have to worry about Knockdown defense because you won't be hit much/ever.
Some professions are very very good at getting a KD in PvP right now. It is a huge edge for sure. Unfortanately, pistoleer (PMD1) has been pretty thoroughly nerfed. The smuggler KD is pretty decent but you can't count on it to work all the time. The classes that can follow up a dizzy attack with a posture change get a much more crippling KD on their foes.
Get into a TKM's melee zone and see how many times you end the engagement standing... it won't be many.
Master Pistoleer, and I still get KD way too often, thing is i think we did a test way back when on defense mods, and it was determined strength of weapon affects it, so lets see 500 damage carbine = weak pistol, yes that helps alot
they know about it, we can only wait til whenever that is
