For the longest time I thought TKA should be nerfed back to where it was before. I'd watch my girlfriend who is a TKM/Master Dancer (which is really a cool combo if you think about it considering the only thing a TKM can't heal is battle fatigue) take out Storm Troopers with 2 hits and kill massive amounts of people in PvP while doing base defense. As a master carbineer/MCH she could still beat me at PvE, and did so...often. Once I became completely disgusted with Carbineer (easy to do considering none of the specials work and everything costs a fortune in HAM) I took up TKA. It took me 3 hours to level 6 boxes with a free set of buffs and some brandy. I'm only 2-2-4-4 right now and not only have I not lost a duel since I started TKA, I also haven't died in PvE since I started...I died constantly doing both with carbineer.


I don't have to wear armor anymore, I don't have to pump endless amounts of stims into myself anymore, if I don't find buffs before I go off to PvE it isn't a big deal anymore...I have become a TKA *sigh* and I'm loving every second of it.


Quick question...when I was killing Stormies in Kor Vella they kept getting a bleed thing put on them, obviously they went down way too fast for it to matter, but I was under the impression we couldn't bleed. Is this like the carbineer thing where crippling shot would blind as well as cripple even though it only was supposed to cripple?

heh, welcome to the crowd. While most people here will never admit TKA being overpowered, you're absolutely right in your observations


To answer your question, must be a bug or someone else shooting at them, TKA has no way of bleeding whatsoever.

Actually, I think the bleed comes for the VK's does it not? You can't intentionally bleed, but there is a chance for a bleed to happen if you have VK's equipped.

Yes, actuallywe do. UAHit 3 has a chance to apply a bleed. The bleed itself will only tick for 1 dmg however, so it is nothing to get happy over.


However, since he obviously doesn't have UAHit 3 yet (Master TK special) its possible that someone else was applying the bleed, or it is possible that what he is seeing is the Intimidate state icon, which looks like a bleed state icon, only lighter in color.

I cause bleeds all the time, spam hit3 on a target and I get a bleed on about the third hit, i think you can get a random bleed when you inflict high damage in 1 hit, I also used to get it spaming adv straff shot

No armor and no buffs is a cool way to go like my self but..


You will die fast in PVP that way unless you are fighting novices.


Master Rifleman with a Jawa Ion rifle or a Combat Medic will make short work of you.


I am finding more and more people that are Dueling (Melee) for fun and honor with no Buffs and no armor and no Vk's.

Unarmed Hit 2 also has a chance to to the same bleed. That explains it.

I've read the bleed issue talked about here before. But anyway, no, nonbleedshots are not causing bleeds.


There are random 1 damage bleeds that occur on NPC. I believe it was set up basically for Riflemen. So whenaRifleman is soloing somethinglike a Nightstisterwith concealshot (Rifleman can fire this shot prone and not be aggroed)therandom bleed will cause aggros on the Rifleman since the shot does not. I don't believe it really effects any other class.

Use foods to resist and cure bleeds while you fight, from what we in the BE community can tell the bleeding defence tissues don't actually work even now.

Well if you got hit with a flurry kicks and punches you'd bleed a bit too.

learn something new every day, though I never inflicted a bleed when I was a TKM, and I used UAH2 and 3 a LOT. Of course my swordsman area attack 3 and hit 3 don't ever dizzy either when they should, so it's probably me.

I solo mobs with UA2 with VKs and I bleed them randomly.
