We are gun bait in PVP and now totally worthless. After ALL the hours I put in to get high in the TKA skills just to find you kill yourself by using a "special move".


This really pisses me off about KD ham costs.... WHY even have the skill if it takes half your HAM away??? Its now TOTALLY worthless to have. The xp cost and hours of playtimeto get to that point then get a skill so that you can kill yourself YAY THATS A GAME I WANT TO PLAY!!! GOOD TIMES!!! FUN !!!


I should have known though being SOE. I played EQ from beta until this game came out and watched themgive into the whiners (people saying "they can do that and I cant, its not fair") the whole way nerfing stuff. Looks like now if a few people whine about somethin, it will be nerfed guaranteed.


Its now impossible for a melee to solo unless they fight stuff they can kill in 2 hits. You watch, when someone becomes jedi, their HAM skills will really be nerfed, and they will keep the population down cause the JEDI WILL KILL THEMSELVES off!


BS is all I can say.

i couldn' agree more. i tried to kill a desert razorback(something i used to do with ease), and had been incapaciteated twice before i found out what was going on.


Hmmm... why do i keep dying so quickly?... could it be that using knockdown twice **edit** near kills me?


oh well... let some more people complain about us being too strong, then we can all band together and go to naboo to take out a nest of diseased chubas.


this makes me sick.

even unequipped you can't use it 3 times without incapping yourself. Even 1 KD unequipped knocks you down (ironic isn't it) by 1/3. Forget KD...it doesn't exist in the TK tree. It's now called masochism1 and masochism2.

I am severely disappointed. What is the purpose of a special move if it does less damage than before and eats up all of your HAM.


Just because some people with weak weapons complain that they don't do as much damage as us, WE get nerfed. Well, we dont' need special guns and uber rifles. We do massive damage because we already have our weapons, our hands.



Ranged weapon users don't do lots of damage unless they have a GOOD weapon. TKA should always do good damage (provided you have the skill) because you always have your hands.



Hunting is now totally worthless. I can't kill a **edit** thing worth killing for EXP. I might as well drop all my TKA and brawler skills.

For what's its worth I agree with you guys 100%. You had advantages but a huge disadvantage because of the range. I think it was balanced pretty good. Leave it to SOE to fix what ain't broke.

"sure you can solo. just make sure you have a medic with you!"


Excellent idea, mind you. Even if you did mean it in a sarcastic manner.


Having aDoctor to help you along certainly helps when you get in a bind with the big creatures.


Those Revive kits are spectacular. You should consider hooking up with a Doc before heading out, especially a talkative one (good companyduring those long walks between missions)

" even unequipped you can't use it 3 times without incapping yourself. "

You are so full of **edit**.

I was just in the game testing it out. Using knockdown unequipped took away about 1/10 or less of my bar.

Grow up.
