i think this is wonderful ! ! ! ! ! Yes, fencers can now take on the TKA. Now TKA's might complain but keep in mind that in-order to beat the TKA's they have to use CoB, otherwise they get defeated (from what i understand).



This is good news because it means that the devs are finally balancing out the melee proffesions. The answer is not to nerf the TKA but to inhance the other melee classes and this is evidence that the devs are doing so. so rejoice

It's not the first thread about this matter.


By " CoB does not fonction yet" why do you mean ? You dont evade, dodge or counterattack under CoB ?


Like I wrote in other post, CoB allow me to dodge, evade etc maybe not as the expected level of efficiency but it does "work".

I agree. Master Fencer is a very under-rated prof that is going to start getting a lot more respect. As for the CoB thing, i have tried using it(i am TKM) and have found it does nothing. I dodge, counter-attack the same or even worse it sometimes seems.


Thats about it

It must only works for me so ( work for me = I get the dodge, counter and evade system message ).


Without CoB, I barely ornever see my character dodge, counter or evade that much.


Yesterday, after a raid, I checked my log, under CoB, I was able to avoid eyeshot, lastditch, torso shot and so on, soon as CoB wear off, I started to be hitted again.


I know, I didnt ran any extendedtest nor I logged the fights to parse the logs in order to provide an accurate feedback.


Anyway,

The pure irony of this is professions that are deemed to be overpowered by the masses (TKA, BH, Commando, CH) always say "work on your own profession and stop calling for nerfs to us"


Then the devs finally boost other professions without uber nerfing the "overpowered" professions and then the people who said "enhance your profession without nerfing us" start complaining because they start losing.


How many times have we seen a TKA say "enhance your profession and don't call for a nerf to us" now that the Fencer COB is very effective we see posts all the time of some TKA complaining "I can't beat a fencer anymore waaaaaaaaa". Or when the new defenses came out for other professions the outrage on the BH forums (because they still have almost 0 defenses) was so loud it could be heard a mile away.


It's human nature I guess. The "overpowered" profession tells everyone else to focus on boosting their profession then when that profession gets boosted the overpowered profession starts whining that they can't beat the newly balanced "underpowered" profession with ease anymore.

COBS works for me, a Master TKA!!!


Why? Because I am also a master pistoleer and the dodge ismore then a master fencer. Is everybody here a purist and didnt post this fact? Its not broken, its that TKAs mod is Equilibrium and it only works on posture change, not CoB. So, whats the moral, take Pistoleer and control the battle.

Actually I think our COB mod is defensive acuity. That is what really doesn't work that well.


I believe (please correct me if I'm wrong) is it's a mixture of all three. It allows us to either block, dodge, or counterattack.
