I refuse to be turned into an inept generic movie ninja who goes down after 2 hits.

Good to see you posting here Holo, was much needed as I am sure you can tell if you takea fastlook at TK boards.

We are not asking to be uber but simplywould liketo fit into that tank role and being ableto take out fast anything that gets close to us. Right now its far from the case as you already might imagine from the replies you have seen in this post. Lot of combat/hybrid classes in SWG have the ability to keep us KDed not only in close quarters fight scenario but also at range, which makes it very difficult and probably unreal for now to be effective even in close combat. One way to adjust this could be to raise our knockdown and other defense mod resists since we are masters of our body and mind after all

I apperciate Holocron looking into the matters. And responding as best as he could. I have my hopes that they restore the coolest Melee class in the game.

I don't like being taken down by vrelts....

Agrees with shoppaholic,

I nearly fell out of my F'n chair when I saw that reply. All melee suck at PvP in the game. We have NO CHANCE, NONE, PERIOD. But since the game is so new, I didn't fret. This is my first ever MMorpg, and from watching friends play EQ and hearing many tales of development hell with these type of games I figured you would get to it eventually. It seems I had too much faith in you. Your reply (and your whole attitude towards melee classes in general) is disgusting. You could make melee classes viable in PvP combat, you could keep that kind of variety present in combat. But you won't do it. This confuses me. Why? What is your purpose, your reasoning for this? I thought , because I have been a life long SW fan(like i'm sure many of your customers are), because I have read nearly everything in the EU, because I knew something of the TKA's, because I myself have studied and practiced martial arts for over 10 years, that this was the character class for me. This is where I was going to get the richest experience. This is where I was going to be able to sink into my character the most, where my immersion into this galaxy you created was going to be the most rewarding.

I was not one of the people who participated in beta, I wanted to wait for the game to be done. But when I heard that you could be a TKA in the game, my desire to play increased many fold. I decided then, regardless of what other proffesions where in the game, that my character would be a TK Master.

Well.......my dissapointment started a few weeks into the game, when a I participated in my first PvP duel. It was a friendly match between myself and someone I had become buddies with on the server. I had just reached TKA novice, and they where just shy of their elite rifle novice. Short version, they won. 4 out of 4 times. Ok, so there where some balancing issues to work out. No big deal. It was only my second week of playing. Surely this will be fixed. I have so far been proven wrong on that point. And then to be basicly insulted with the "don't bringa knife to a gunfight" answer. Have you read any of the EU regarding TKA's. They are portrayed as the type of warrior who would take a gun from your "average" marksman, lodge the barrel deep in their posterior , and hold the trigger down untill the blaster pack was depleted. And they would do this with the speed, style, and grace rivaled only by the Jedi themselves. So it seems to me, that at the least, they should be competitive in the PvP battles. NOTE: I did not say superior, just competitive.

Well, having given up hope of that ever happening. I tried to be satisfied with the knowledge that I would at least have a solid role in PvE groups, and Solo hunts. People used to be glad I was there, I could take a respectable amount of damage from a MOB,and YES, I had KD skills that I could use to help the group win. Now......now I am not only the biggest liability to the group, but to myself as well.

Well, I guess I was too powerful, or was I having too much fun? Christ!!! You have put me in the position more than once now of trying to make this game fun!!!!!!

That should not be up to me. I paid my $50.00 up front, along with my $15.00 a month to you so that I would be provided with a game that was fun. All I was supposed to bring was my computer, my internet connection, my willingness to build a character over a period of time, and my imagination.

Unlike the majority of people in this thread, I am not going to threaten to quit. I planned to make TKA Master with my character, and I will reach that goal. But I fear , that once I have completed that goalthere will be nothing left for me to do. I really am going to try to stay interested in this game. Shame I will have to work so hard at it.

I really hope you guys(the Dev's) reconsider your stance on melee classes in general. I would rather play 4 seperate melee class characters, then 1 marksman. Truthfully.

This game is fast becoming a Joke!!! Stop comparing guns to knives.. this isnt the real world...its the world George Lucas created.... In this world Jedi are the badasses, and second only to a Jedi is a TK Master (Ive read that Darth Maul was also a TK along with being a Sith Lord) With that said... no way in hell should a guy who is almost as deadly as a jedi be so **edit** weak! Especially since its the hardest to master... we cant just send in a pet and sit back and collect xp... we take the freakin damage while xping... and whats our reward... stupid NERFS, bad enough anybody with a novice marksmanship can kite us to death... now we have to lose to creatures to..... I am not a TK master yet..but im very close and my charcter in no way resembles what he should according to Star Wars folk lore.

FIX THIS SONY.... FIX IT FAST... or lose another customer, and you better believe if I go im taking a few accounts with me. I dont care if you have to make it harder to become a TK master or you even add another level to go through... JUST FIX it so that when I do become a Master.... I am a bad ass like it should be and not some geek getting shot by newbies or getting killed by weak creatures. So to conclude this isnt knife vs gun............ this is Star Wars... and in this world a TK would whoop up on a group of guys with guns. I can go on forever with my displeasure but Ive said enough. The VERY least that should be done to balance us out is put knockdown back to the way it was. Each combat should atleast be equal. (TK should be tops, but if not.. it definatly shouldnt be at the bottom)

FIX IT OR LOSE MONEY!!!

Haven't played since the patch anyhow.

With Matrix and MiddleEarth coming out. They had better sew up the market fast or they *will* lost market share. Promise.

MiddleEarth will take fantasy away from EQ and Matrix will take away from this game.

Delete this post if you want. But it will happen if you dont get this game in line.
