Thanks Hyp.


I feel that at least then we would have a reason to be so "uber" as people claim


Then we could maybe Hopefully get some added defense and a pretty good dodge.


because it would be justified


Just a thought

Sorry about the ATTACK JEDTIMBO, im juts P.O'd at the devs, sorry. I just believe that ppl should take a stand and say the a lot of devs should be fired for screwing up every single professsion.


I'd like to c ppl get angry at these devs and say leave the game our we r.


Because Truthfully ppl r leaveing by the thousands because of this crap, it was noted in the Chat area 2 and 1/2 months ago or a little more that 10,000 ppl just said to hell with this game and left.


A lot of my friends did.

Guess I'll say it again. We are TK in name only, and should really beMaster Unarmed or Boxers or something like that. TKM should takealmost all of yourskill pts and should at least include include master brawler, scout 4-0-4-0, medic.4-4-0-0 and some others. It should be hard.

I'm new to the whole teras kasi proffesion but as a master doc as well i see not much of a problem in the HAM costs...i guess you've guys never incapped you're self after useing only 2 specials with riflmen or carbineer...HAM costs are what they should be and if you're using your fists in a sword fight you should have to be buffed.


The only problem i see in tka is kiting of the ranged proffesions...we either need ranged defence or some way to catch them. Its not like i can hop on my bike and chase them down the street but maybe a slight speed burst in exchange of a lot of HAM would be a great help in this aspect.

it should take 217 or more skill points to be a tka

Teras Kasi is half Jedi, so its BS to have to have all these other skills, when getting TKM is hard enough.


And the HAM costs r to much but will take it, instead of what the stupid devs have planned, lol.


Sorry, Teras Kasi is a Jedi Martial-Art i meant.

Well its not really a Jedi art



I call it a "force sensitive" martial art (shrug)

JedTimbo, u r stupid.


TK damage should stay at 500 dmg, and VKs shouldnt change the dmg. Though in some specials and life or death fights we should be able to 750dmg


Our HAM pools should not suffer so much when we do specials.


If u really read what i said ud at least agree with a few things i said because i do know perfectly well what im talkinmg about.







The tools to reduce your HAM costs are already available in the game. Vercupti, Glucose pate, etc.


Sage1 you are indeed poorly named. Your statements make it glaringly obvious that you are not a knowledgeable TK so please beat yourself senseless for us all. Thank you, drive thourgh.

I posted this to another thread, but this seems to be equally valid here:


In my opinion, the first thing we need to ascertain is what is exactly is the mythos of Teras Kasi in the SW universe. As far as I can ascertain, there is nothing on the Star Wars Databank on the TK organisation/belief - it seems to have been created solely for the game "Masters of Teras Kasi" and then resurrected for SWG. What is the 'canon' background to this art? Only then, when we have a true indication of our place in the galaxy (the whos, the whys and the hows), can we begin to speculate on what skills we have? Perhaps one of the Devs could create some history for the artform?


I HAD heard that TKAs were watchers of the Jedi Order, monitoring them in case they absused their powers; and if need be eliminate them. I had also heard that they were attuned to the Force to enhance their bodies.


Both these ideas where dismissed by other posters, and so the whole concept still seems to be in the air.


If I am wrong, and there are references to TK outside these two sources (comics et al), I'd be forever thankful if they were pointed out to me. I'd love to get my Character Story right.

Well the only reference to TKA I've seen was in Shadows of the Empire (good book) All it says is that the Pike sisters could take out Imperial Elite soldiers without breaking a sweat(or something like that)


So what a draw from that is that TKA is a mysterious art that not much is known about


conclusion: we may very well be sensitive to the force

Thanks Atone, thats handy to know.


But that proves my point. Who are the TKAs in the SW universe? Self-identification must be the first step before self-improvement.

First off I am not trying to start an argument. I am just trying to state my feelings about what TKA could possibly be


Since it seems to be so "mysterious" and unknown I feel that they may be somewhat users of the force.


Of course nowhere near as strong as Jedi or anything


And i just looked back in shadows and yes they took out 8 well trained Imperial troopers so thats the only real info out on TKA's i guess
