Thread: Migrating stats....what have you got?

I am 2/1/3/3 in TKA, and flying along fairly well. I am holo grinding, but this was not a holo profession, this was because I was tired of grinding and wanted to play and have some fun...and man oh man, I am HAVING A BLAST WITH TKA!


I know with PB you want to pretty much max out your mind pool, but what do you do with the REST of your HAM bar stats? Do you pump up your FOCUS and WILLPOWER so you can still operate somewhat when you have a muon downer, and to keep your mind up when you don't have mind buffs besides spices?


right now my health and action are as low as they go, 400 I think. Strength and quickness are at 700 each, constitution and stamina are at 400, mind is at 1100, and the rest are in my focus and willpower.


How do you all have your stats, and why?


I hope to keep this profession for as long as I can. I don't know what my hidden profession will be, but until I get to the point I need to do something like BH where I have not points to keep, I will keep TKA. Hey, I am a martial artist in real life...it appeals to me.


Best of luck!

800 health


400 str/con


800 action


400 quik/stam


1000 mind


500 focus


700 willpower



I keep my health and action at a good number since I won't always be buffed (i.e. death), and powerboost has a semi-random duration. High willpower lets me regen very quickly, and I make 33.17% mind cost reduction powerups with 16% max damage, so my mind cost is very low when using specials. I have a bit of skill in medic so I can heal away any damage/ham cost I take usually (never need to heal if I'm buffed). I sometimes take muon, but usually make and use good duration spiced tea, k-18 rations, teltier noodles. Used to take yarrok instead of muon because of it's downer which isnt noticible, but stopped using it when I didnt really notice the benefits either (haha)

I'm a Trandoshan. Would it be a good idea to take 150 away from health and action? That way I when I Power Boost I'll be at 1150/1150/1500?

Well, for every 100 you take from health and action, and put into mind, you get back 100 to each health and action, but PB is not always the same time? I am still pretty new to PB, so I did not know that.


I thought I had read somewhere you could not add power-ups to VK...dang. Well, live and learn, thanks for bringing that up. that has been my biggest problem in a fight, I do more dmg to myself via specials than I take from many creatures.


I think I will shift some more back towards my health and action stats. Slow process, but sometimes I almost need to beg to get buffs. I play on Lowca, and for some reason, there seems to be very few people keeping master Doctor and making good enhance packs. I have a 2nd account, but not a second computer. Maybe I can get my room mate to run my second account on his computer during the night to get my 2nd account to master doctor...hmmm. I already have over half a million of almost every resource needed for making the advanced items for the packs from when a friend was making BE pet stims.


Thanks for the geat info...and may the force be with you all!

Mine is somewhat similar, but I've found that you actually get more benefit by having focus higher than willpower. The lesser HAM cost of the moves with a higher focus is overall more effective than the faster regeneration from willpower. Try it out.

I've put everything into my mind/mind secondaries. If I happen to die and lose my buffs, I just re-buff.

Utess....that is a great post. I did not know that drink/food whatever was availible. I will see if I can procure some of this stuff. I use Muon, and I really hate using it, but since I always ask, but no one is every buffing mental stats on my server, I have little choice left besides muon. Now that you brought this to light, I have an alternative to muon. I will use the food item, and keep muon for those emergencies.


THANKS!!!!!

Not there yet so this is a question, not an answer.


What about putting everything into health, get buffed. Migrate everything to action, get buffed. Migrate everything to mind, get buffed and leave it that way. Will that help?

I know, my mind seems low for a tka, but its not I use the new Brandy chef food on test center. It's a very well made vintage that is 40 something filling and boosts all 3 mind stats by close to 450 for 37 minutes. This lets me drink 2 of these at any one time and I always have a crate of this handy.


Since I use the brandy and always fight powerboosted, that means in reality, my stats are somewhere around

And thats before doctor buffs, entertainer buffs, and for those who like to use it(I don't) spice.

With stats like that XDogmae, you must be a wookiee. :-)


Since writing this original post, I have learned a few things...and yes, I am now a professional TKA (Not dropping for holocrons).


My stats are currently as follows (and the reason to follow)


Health-450


Str-450


Con-400


Action-500


Quickness-500


Stamina-400


Mind-1100


Focus-1100


Willpower-500



I use the high mind to increase my powerboost stats, so I add 550 to each HAM for 1000/1050/1650. With my mind up this high, and using even low end Vasarian Brandy, I am able to raise my Focus up high enough I have ZERO mind cost, so I have no self inflicted wounds from using specials, at least on Mind. I don't have to worry with getting entertainer buffs anymore...it has been weeks since I saw my mind bar go low enough to even notice it. With even mid-ranged doctor buffs, I can spam specials all day long and never incurr any specials damge either. So yes, between Doctor buffs and Brandy, I can pretty much fight non-stop. I don't wear armor because it just gets damaged, needing repair, and you pay an arm and a leg for anything worth wearing really. It is just simplier to go without for me. I may get some in the future for some other fights, but for now, I am happy.


The reason I am shifting my stats to where they are now is I have a 2nd account that I am using for utilities, a master doctor and master musician (soon to be, getting really close on the doctor). This way, I can self buff any time, and when I finally unlock that FS slot, I will be able to buff my FS guy's health and action pools, as well as the focus/willpower pools. I am an adult, with a good deal of patience, so with these buffs, and carefully avoiding getting any visiblity points (gonna happen I know, but no need to show off), I should be able to gain a fair amount of skill in jedi.
