Yeah ap 2 only increases our damage by 25% against AR1, it is better, but not as great as all the TKAs make it seem.

And that has always been my biggest beef about them nerfing bleeds. Either they need to make it so AP actually works (though God forbid they do without nerfing riflemen first), or give us some other way to pierce armor. That was always our one advantage, and now we don't have it anymore.

Basically the only advantage swordsmen have over TKA, is CoB. But currently, that is a huge advantage.

But once our stacking is done away with, swordsmen will definately need to be addressed.

TKA dont need nerfing... they seem to work as intended... Its EVREYONE ELSE (use swordsmen especially) that needs FIXING.

more nerf cries.... ughh

YOU HAVE ENOUGH SKILL POINTS TO TAKE SOME TKA IF YOU REALLY THINK ITS ALL THAT GREAT. Stop whinning.

On low armored Enemies a TKA can do more damage.

its called mitigation, swordsmen get it also. as do all professions, not just tk, look in your skill boxes. ranged get ranged mitigation, melee gets melee mitigation, smugglers get both, and i think commandos get both.

TKM does not need a nerf. one just needs to know how to play swordman. and trust me being a MHS for only 2 weeks does not mean you know how to play swordman to the fullest. hell i've been a master swordman for like 5 months and i dont think i can play swordman to it's fullest potental yet. even though i'm close i'm not there yet.


How ever there is only one problem with tka in pvp and that is damage mitration. it doesnt affect tka right as it does with the other professions. because no matter what weapon we use in pvp a MHS vs a TKM wih out armor or buffs a TKM will win due to the lack of mitration damage. they would do double the damage we would do per second if we would use a scythe/ 2-hand axe/ cleaver. 200-250 damage on average we would do opposed to 350-450 damage they would do per second. so that is like 2-3 hits and one is gone. and btw that is witout ether being kded.


also if both parties had armor and buffs and this armor is 80% kintic and like 80%+ blasta tkm will most likely win because they are not affected corectly from damagemitration. but once this getss fixed facing a tkm will bbe more of a 50/50 chance between a tkm and a swordman.


but other then that we rock in pve. Or at least i rock in pve. PVP to me right now is pointless to do. not fun right now when everyone is the same profession.








only if the TKM manages to get his focus over 1500 to negate the nasty mind cost of knucklers, if he didnt then you may as well just lay there untill he uses all his mind then just smack him in the head (yes i have done almost exactly this before, and its funny as hell when they send you tells about it afterwards too)

You can't forget that the TKA also has +550 extra mind, and two lives.

i dont know if its just on my server or what but i dont think i have ever seen a TKA use FOW, i use it fairly often unless all my HAM bars are beaten to nothing.


then again, with /deathblow hotkeyed i dont give them much of a chance to try it
