Teras Kasi Archive

After the patch today I noticed two things. One, I get hit a lot more in general from shooting NPCs. They also seem to do more specials and more damage. Two, when I use CoB I get missed more and I actually counterattack and dodge.

I logged on today in a spot where there is a static spawn of 7 surface marshalls. As a TKM, I have hunted this spot on and off for the last few weeks. I have never had much trouble taking them as they attack 2, 2 then 3 at a time. Worst that happened is I've been down to 1/4 health. Today, I was ripped apart. They bleed me, posture changed me, hit me about 30% more of the time, etc. Not fun. This is with added ranged def from the rifle trees.

Needless to say, I wasnt happy. I went back and cleaned up the two surface marshalls that were left. I then used auto attack on a few blue conning rebels. They used to miss me 50 to 60 percent of the time. Now they were hitting me 80 percent of the time. Misses were rare. So I decided to try CoB.

Lo and behold- it worked! I was missed or I countered about 70 percent of the time with it on.

While I'm not happy with the crappiness of ranged def now at least CoB seems to compensate for that a bit.

Anyone else having any luck with CoB? Anyone else notice any changes in NPC hit/miss percentages? Or was I just having a bad morning?

havn't tested it myslef....

Did it say they fixed it in the patch notes???

The patch notes ( few day ago ) stated that CoB was fixed ( scroll the patch notes down ).

For some of us CoB is working, for others it's not. The opinions are shared and the TKA correspondant asked the Dev to have a look on this matter.

I just want to adde that I have used CoB on and off since the day it was added. It has never worked until today. Not once. Today it worked the 4 times I tried it.

I dont remember if the CoB skills ( duration and efficiency ) start at Novice brawler or novice "insert elite melee class" ..sorry.

Whatdoes itdo : under CoB, your character has a greater chance to dodges, counterattack or evade. You may see a lot of " miss "as well but it's maybe a bug in the system message and it doesnt show the proper action, ie evade ( I think ).

I used CoB last night at Fort Tusken. It does work. There is an obvious decrease in the number of times you are hit when you are -centered-

Now I just have to remember to reuse it every 30seconds.

I don't think defense acuity is working though because as a master TKI dodge, evade, counterattack way less thenwhenI dodgeusing a sword as a novice fencer.

My tests were against NPCs that shot at me. I was not shooting. While I am going up the Rifle tree my cambat spam clearly read dodge and there were clearly a lot more misses on the part of the NPCs after CoB was up and running. I'm going to try to duel a few people online later to test it further.
