Heavy swordsmen also get an AP2, blast-damage dealing hammer that does horrible amounts of damage on anything it hits.


OK, so you got beaten by a TKM. So have I. Learn how to play your class, and figure out how to get round it.


I also note that you're not that high on the Heavy Sword tree (going by your sig), whereas KD2 is a tier 4 skill (correct me if I'm wrong). Maybe when you're higher up, you'll find that your defensive mods prevent this from happening so often, as the people above describe.

I don't think a 0/4/0/0 Teras Kasi (assuming that's all his skills besides 4/0/0/0 brawler) could consistantly take a Master Swordsman.

A Master Swordsman has:

Counterattack: +25
Defense Vs. Blind: +10
Defense Vs. Dizzy: +20
Defense Vs. Intimidate: +20
Defense Vs. Knockdown: +25
Defense Vs. Posture Change: +10
Defense Vs. Stun: +30
Melee Defense: +20
Two-handed Melee Toughness: +32

And I think these are old figures. This doesn't include the CoB that works very well with their class causing their counterattack to go off on a regular basis.

Compare this to a 0/4/0/0 TKA having these defenses:

Combat Equilibrium: +40
Defense Vs. Blind: +10
Defense Vs. Dizzy: +5
Defense Vs. Knockdown: +30
Defense Vs. Posture Change: +20
Defense Vs. Stun: +15
Melee Defense: +2
Unarmed Toughness: +32

No defense against intimidate, less defense against stun, much less melee defense and **NO** defense moves that CoB works with.

Yeah, TKA's are hard to knock down and keep down, but a stun or an intimidate from a Master Swordsman with a Power Hammer, and this 0/4/0/0 TKA is in trouble.

They are so many possible reasons other than KD2 is overpowered, the first that come in my mind is ..maybe the "master swordsman" wasn't a very good at playing the class.
