yes, going solo is harder now, especially for those of us who haven't hit master TKA yet. I can't even solo things that con yellow without tearing my HAM up. Using my special moves is more like doing suicide moves, because it does more damage to me than to the creature i am fighting. It's perposterious, and using basic tactics like dizzy and unarmed lunge will not work for gaining hundreds of thousands of unarmed exp.



Wonder why unarmed lunge doesn't use much HAM? Because it's the very first ability you get, and the worse ability. It doesn't do much of anything, and it sure as hell isn't going to keep the monster i am fighting from eating me alive. What they need to do is revert TKA back to the way it was, when we could actually gain some EXP. Even then we still get beat by people with pistols out in the open.

Well they basically doubled what I asked for w/knockdown costs, which was already a high cost. They reduced ham costs on some other attacks, but they are still for the most part worthless. Asking to be a more well-rounded class and getting turned into a class with no unique power and still no well-roundedness are two entirely different things.

Heh, I agree Pyradius, I am not blaming you. I am just astonished to see developers apply bandaid soultions liek this that ruin entire professions. We asked for balance, not to have our legs chopped off at the knee =)

I am TKM, and this was the first thing I tried after the nerf. I find that using knockdown actually works better than this technique even with the increased HAM costs.


This technique hardly works.

Selwynn and Sseese, I gave a try and I agree with you when you say we're still viable. We just need to use some technics now our special moves got a use.


I could still solo a rancor, or chainkill baz nitches before tka master yesterday.


Now that patch may hurt in the first time, but I feel that classes are more balanced right now. I can still solo a baz nitch and still have a third of my ham bars at worse - just can't take on two of them.


We aren't the uber PvE class anymore, and I'm very pleased with that - less tka around there

Snoobag, you mentioned balance. How did this patch make us in any way balaced with other classes? Maybe it balanced us to their levels in PvP, but how did this solve any PvP balancing issues?
