Oopsie! Posted an empty post.

I was looking at TKM / Pikes x444 / BH 4000. It gets intimidate, stun, warcry, dizzy, and some nice polearm certs just in case. Plus, it keeps me protected without armor.

There are a LOT of wasted skill points, but I thought this combo looked pretty good.

Any thoughts?

I don't know, as TKA you won't be dishing out very much damage. If you'll want to dish out damage you'll need to switch to pikes which has two problems.

A) you'll need to have armor on because you'll lose your TKA defenses. Assuming the equip delay is on it means you won't be healing or attacking for a very long time while you try and get your armor on.

B) you're not master, so in armor you'll take a huge hit in speed and special abilities. Also your DPS will be much lower.

TKM defense has been said to work as long as you dont have armor on. I dont believe this though. I have strong reservation that a TKM/combat prof will be royally F'd over because the lack of armor when you switch to a differnt prof

TKM
4034 Swords
4440 Brawler
4000 BH
Novice Commando

I don't have the char builder in front of me, but I think that's the build I've been looking at. With it we get some of the good swordsman moves which we can use unarmed, we get an insane amount of speed, and we get improved deulist stance for extra defense. also unarmed+gen melee speed is at 95 I think, and unarmed+gen melee accuracy is around 205. again, I don't have the exact numbers but I think this template will be a beast to deal with.

why go for warcry and intimidate when we tank via avoidance? just keep COB and deulist stance up, and wail away w/ advanced crit strike, power attack, advanced combo attack etc. I feel this template will destroy jedi. I can't wait.

EDIT:
found the paper I wrote the stuff down on:

General + Unarmed = Total
130+75= 205 accuracy
30+65= 95 speed

155 melee def
130 ranged def
75 unarmed def

260 damage
all knuckler certs

adv armor break
adv dizzy
adv combo
adv legsweep
berserk
imp crit strike
imp power attack
lunge
melee strike
sword flurry

imp COB
imp deulist stance

Swap out tk for carb or sword.

Not all the defenses carry over. Some do, but the main ones that make TKA a super tank don't carry over when a pike is brought out.

i know this isn't the jedi forum, but: did they add that jedi armor to the m. defenders because Imp Jedi were complaining about how good Force Armor is/was for Light Jedi Knights?

Its not just Master Defender. Jedi Initiate (pre padawan) gets +20, two lines of defender tree add a little for each box, then another +20 at master for +70 total (versus +60 for TKM). As for why, they added it to the skill tree at the same time as TKA Innate Armor, noone has had a chance to test the Force Armor in the CU so it was likely part of the plan all along.
