I was a Smuggler.

Then became a Bouny Hunter. I found like to be dull.

Went back to Smuggler, and found myself lvling TKAM just because of the Skill Points.

Then I choose pistoleer cause it was again convienent. No regrets.

Been like this since October.

First, if a TKA does this and the other fella comes after him and gets within melee range,they deserves to get their clock cleaned. There is no profession in the game that can't kill at tkm with a CDEF pistol if they stay 20+ meters away.


Second, range is a factor of client/server lag. I can be 2m away from you on the server and 35m away on your client.


Third, the lunge2 skill that is NOT a TKA but EVERY SINGLE MASTER BRAWLER OF EVERY SINGLE MELEE WEAPON TYPE GETS is what is hitting you from more then 15m. Also a lot of TKM's are also Smugglers, so they can lowblow you, or Marksman with supression fire or every single other fighter class in the game that gets a posture change. SO next time you see a guy who hasa TKA flag up, consider that fact that they are probably something else as well, and if they knocked ya down from more then 15m it was NOT their TKA skills that did it. And if you are knocking people down with a TKA skill from that range, I'd suggest that you have lag issues.

Well, as I said in my other thread, I have no problem with KDs - it's the Dizzy component that completely loses the fight beyond any control that needs to be adjusted, eliminated, or fixed.

The fact that TKMs have so much flexibility is another bone of contention. No other profession is as powerful as TKM and costs less points besides MAYBE Rifleman which costs the same. A TKM can master Doctor, or Commando, or one entire Elite ranged profession PLUS 0444 of another. If Master Brawler were added as the prerequisite to TKM instead of Unarmed 4, sure there would be more WC1 + WC2 + Lunge2 + UKD2 = tehwinz people, but on the same token even if Master Brawler WERE required, you'd STILL have enough to go Master Brawler, Master TK, Pistoleer 4444, and Smuggler 0030 for a ranged KD and additional Intimidate-like ability in Panic Shot plus get Ranged Mitigation 2. With Master Brawler you'd still have enough to go Commando 0040 as well and have 13SP left over.

So sorry, I'm STILL not buying the "ranged professions chew us up" line - if that's happening, MASTER one, **edit** - I've made it quite clear you have an overabundance of points to do so.

Personally I think it's a conspiracy - the leftmost column in the starting combat professions has the best elite profession attached to it (TKM/Rifleman) - I think the Devs are just in the process of going from left to right in adjustments.

I'm really tired of hearing about the point costs for professions. TKA, fencer, swordsman, pikeman, rifleman, carbineer, and pistoleer all require the same amount of skill points to use. Each of tehm have their strengths and their weaknesses.


Melee needs to have their balance in their field and range needs to have their balance in theirs. Too many ignorant people complain about how a tka can force someone to kneel from 15m out or a master brawler can make someone kneel from 20m out. Honestly if you're that idiotic to stay within that range then you deserve whatever you get and if you come out on top good on you. Range has a max of 64m. You can't pay me to eat that BS about 15 or 20 meters when you can get farther out as a ranged fighter.If you feel inclined to, cancel your subscription. I can't help, but wonder where these neanderthals obtained their knowledge because even slow people would understand how baseless these "excuses" for not knowing how to play are.

Let me explain something to you:


I've been:



Master Pistoleer


Master CH


Master Rifleman


Master Commando


Master Tka


and BH 2-4-4-4 could'nt deal with invest.



Tka is the most fun I've had, but it is not even close to the best in game. Your the reason we get nerfed. Please explain why?


Do we solo Krayts? No.


Try to defeat a nightsister unbuffed with no powerboost. Are you tough now? NO.


Try to defeat a BH with master Pistoleer from 50m. Did you win? NO.


Rifleman at 60m. Did you win? No.



Every profession hasone advantage over the others. IMHO, the single BEST Move in the Entire game is Warcry2, which is a Master Brawler Move. Fix the other professions before you wreck anthoer.


I saw a Master Markman solo a Rancor, am i crying Nerf Master Marksman? Nope.



Do do yourself a favor.


1. Do Shut Up.


2. Play in Traffic, Kick Rocks, Cry Me a River. then Eat an overdose of Lead.


3. Call Kleenex they have your tissues waiting.



END RANT

Yeah, that's pretty much correct. I took two months straight off the game when I had to work, and I came back with EVERYONE TKA! Understand, i was kinda upset. I was playing the second day galaxies came out, and TKA was all I ever wanted.


NERF us.

I have been going for tka since launch, and I have seen this profession in times of good and times of bad. I remember when I was the only tka on the block and everyone marveled at my meditate ability and felt sorry for me because I was melee and I got owned all the time. But now the situation is much different, I look around at the starport and something like 1/4 of the people there are tka, why? Because people have realised the killer combo that is kd/dizzy, with minimal use of skillpoints, I as a tka would rather see this profession nerfed to hell than see everyone on Dath with a tka title up, I started this profession as a roleplayer not a power gamer, we should get owned by ranged in pvp half the time, that is realistic, a tka should never run after an opponent but they should wait for them, the amount of range we have is insane so yes, I say the dreaded word.... NERF tka
