Thread: This Jedi-Watching stuff is way out of hand

I don't know who dug up this latest bit of gossip about the Teras Kasi being the monitors of the Jedi, but people are getting carried WAY overboard with it, basically re-writing what our profession is all about. My suggestion is: drop it. This profession isn't going to be changed into some kind of counter-Jedi, there isn't going to be another class stemming from TKM, and we aren't going to get anti-Jedi powers.


In reality, the REAL anti-Jedi class will be the Bounty Hunter. In case you don't know, Jedi who use their powers too much will be subjected to Bounty Hunter missions, NOT Teras Kasi. Don't forget, while the whole phenomenon of Jedi may seem new to YOU, it has been on the Devs' mind since launch.


Let's stay focused on the real task at hand here: Ironing the bugs out of our profession!

You're wrong... We ARE/WILL be the Jedi hunters.. A BH is easily taken down by a Jedi and his Saber.. Reason being is, they're ranged, we're not. Two reasons I can post right now make me believe this


1) The unvailing of RIS armor the "Jedi Hunter's Armor". Used for Melee type classes.


2) The fact that Jedi can deal with ANY ranged profession single handedly because they're just that, far away. A Jedi's weakness IMHO is CLOSE combat. With that being said, flame away.



On another note, I agree.. Fix the class before people go Jedi hunting crazy..

some people are taking it too far, but they have merit for their cases...not 100% but they do.


and i honestly do see another class stemming from TKM, as i see it, it is inivietable. I dont know of any bounty hunters that took Jedi bounty missions, other then vadar convincing some of the galaxies best, that their target was a boy, and knew nothing of the force.


I think bobba fett had a grudge with jedi, and if he killed any, it was because of that grudge, i honestly don't see your average bounty hunter willing to even phuck with a jedi.


TKs on the other hand didnt go out and wage war on jedi either, but in it is fact that the best of the TK masters had the tools and the power to elimite powerfull Jedi, and they sometimes did, when they had to.

There is no way that an super-elite single class will be created. They will either add one to every class, or none at all. Surely you must at least see that.

well no what i see them doing is making it TK only, while bringing up swors and pike and fencing to match the skills of TKA currently.


I can see them implimenting something to just keep TK in TK.


melee is the only last type of combat that doesn't have some form of elite profession that requires all points.



jedi is not exactly melee, since its something else, its their own bread of charecter.


I can see them adding something for just TK to be like bounty hunter in terms of points, being insanly powerfull while having no extra points to spend on other skills, but perhaps some small medic or scout.

I have to agree with Bulbous. There is no way this is going to happen, i know all we TK's like to think were special because we have a little (emphasis on little) bit of mention in star wars literature, and thus a little culture to our class. But that does not mean by any means that we are going to get or deserve some super profession that combat jedi. However, i do agree somewhat with Valkyre that there should (and maybe will be) a "high level" (very skill point expensive, like BH) melee combatant. But i do not agree that it should be TK based just because we are mentioned once or twice in SW literature vaguely and some guy wrote a story up (a good story i might add) about TK's in his rpg, but still a highly elite melee class is needed. I agree, just drop it and worry about fixing the class instead of begging for more power.

Yeah, TKM should totally be able to go toe to toe with a Jedi without expending the effort to get a force-sensitive character or mastering bounty hunter.


We should also be able to hold down 'select' and play as big-head Luke like in the Masters of Teras Kasi playstation game.


Which of these statements is more rediculous?

Just make master brawler and master tka and there is your elite-elite melee profession. Takes over half of your skillpoints and is very powerfull in pve and pvp as much as melee can be.

yawn... tka is just unarmed fighting in this game regardless of what you read in a rpg source book


yes it is the best melee class to have in my opinion merely for the in your face style of fighting


do not think because you are tka you will block saber hits or stop force lightining from killing you


sorry it is not gonna happen


with the points left over from tka i suggest a ranged profession to complement your skills


the template i follow whups bounty hunters to the ground... infact the only thing that is better and that has beaten me tested and tried is melee master doc combo with a lot of buffs and a helmet and armor


its pretty bad when half the server wanders around with a composite helmet lol
