So what if people want to spam KDs against mobs, thats their decision. Takes the fun out of the game doing it for 400k+ combat xp. And if a gunslinger actually lets you get that close he deserves /spamKD. I for one used it sparingly and skillfully if attacked by more than one mob - that was skill. Now, I'm lucky to take out 2 white cons back to back without needing a rest. Took the fun out for me... I worked hard for those skills - not planning to use /unarmedlunge1 the very first skill if I can help it.

So your saying if a martial artist used knockdown 5 times he would be dead? Wow if that was true fight movies would be 10 mins long. It is just unrealistic to have a knockdown move to take 50 or 25 percent of your health, especially if you are trained martial artist trained to fight jedi's.

First off, the new HAM cost of knockdown (tka) is 200...


secondly, if you don't like the changes, then fine... tha tis your perogative. Pick up a new profession and let the true TKA warriors shine through. You're making us all look bad.







You're joking right? What do you kill all day ? minor worts? I am a master TKA, and I believe, along with many other TKA, and i mean MANY OTHERS, that this nerf was the worse thing they have ever done, and they obviously do not care about melee at all.


As it goes, ranged still has it easy, not having th chase a target, not worrying about getting hit, cuz melee's are the only to ever get hurt, we are the frontline and we deserve special abilites.


Let me ask you something Vegan, how many others believe that the nerf was GOOD? 1 in 10 people at most? i seriously even doubt that. Look at how many posts today were saying the nerf is horrible.


The only way people will get used to it is over time, and even then it renders TKA useless, it's better off being a master brawler and using unarmed lunge2 now.

And guess what...pistol whip only costs 90-something, has better range, and does more damage. Plus there is no chance of a Pistoleer accidentally forgetting to unequip his weapon and thus killing himself (w/ 600 ham damage)--nope, ONLY TKAs have to be vigilant about this little workaround.

I mean seriously... the only people that have it worse than us are Droid Engineers and Commandoes. I gotta tell you, I really feel for the Commandoes.

lol yeah, anyone who is actually sticking up for this patch obviously hasnt gotten far enough to use knockdown yet.


it doesnt make us more creative, it makes us worthless. there is absolutely no CREATIVE way to kill semi-deficult enemies now without using half your health and needing 30 minutes of healing. at that rate its gonna be a year just to get to tk master, and i sure as hell arent sit around all day just to kill 4 creatures in 5 hours. worthless crap. or spend 2 hours searching for semi-easy mosly worthless xp creatures to waste my time on.
