Not to mention they can spam their KD, cuz it doesn't have a timer. Devs have said this is "as intended".

Scaaary, folks!

"piezo, do you realize other profs have kd besides us? i have been put on my back for entire fight by carbineers quite often. "


That KD will get nerfed soon, because of the lack of timer. But that being said, their kd isn't a kd/dizzy in one move. Have you ever played a carbineer? Their specials cost far more than a TKAs, and they have less accuracy and speed.


Many classes have abilities that are out of line and should probably be adjusted. TKA just has a lot more than most.

Make everyone as powerful as tka? That would suck. Then everyone would have an insta-win, put you on your back for 5 minutes button? Then every class could attack for sick damage, once per second, with perfect accuracy? Then every class could buff itself up and heal its own wounds, poison and disease? Every class could hit any pool for good damage? Every class could IGNORE damage mitigation?

You tka are just too much. You need to just get over yourselves and realize that yes, maybe you ARE too tough. Every patch TKA gets better than the other brawlers, when it should be the other way around. People playing on a level playing ground with other classes is a GOOD thing, but making everyone as powerful as tka are now is just ridiculous. It would be like playing quake in insta-gib mode(remember that one? )

TKA isn't supposed to be the most powerful profession. How many skill points does it take to master TKM again? You should be getting smacked around by combat medics and BH's. People that have invested a LOT of points into their profession.

YOu I will yell at Odim

I am getting very sick of the whinning BH's and CM's

Oh we use more skill points we should be uber

God **edit** it shut up about it already!!!!!!!

TKA is finally at where it should have been months ago

Again fix the other professions like the original poster said

No more nerfs

no more nerfs

no more nerfs

Yes we do a lot of damage, but gimme a break, if you PvPers that are against us TKA's are smart, you just have to run away and we can't catch up unless we have Marksman skills of our own.

Pikeman, One hand or two hand? We're stronger than you? You have a longer reach, use that to your advantage. We can't hurt you unless we get next to you.

Pretty soon all professions will get destroyed by these nerfs.

With melee damage mitigation 3, how much HAM does an unarmed TKM use on specials? Now compare that to the other classes (Fencer with a Vibroblade is probably the only exception) on their HAM costs? Who has the upper hand (no pun intended)? A TKM using no VK can still do considerable damage with a very low HAM usage compared to the other classes.

Novice Teras Kasi using bare fists using unarmed hit 2 can do?.........near 700 damage with -68 (or was it 58) HAM useage.

"Pikeman, One hand or two hand? We're stronger than you? You have a longer reach, use that to your advantage. We can't hurt you unless we get next to you."

Just how do pikeman, 1hd, and 2hd swordsman have longer reach?

All melee range is 10m now, with the exception of a few specials(like the lunge2 from master brawler).

Maybe in "real life" a pike has longer reach than a fist, but not in SWG. On the contrary, pikeman and heavy swordsman(especialy pikeman) have horrible range mods on their weapons.

Get another argument.

"First .. just out of curiosity, what is your profession?

Second .. if you're any kind of marksman and you're complaining about TKAs being too powerful, you need to go to your profession's boards and learn how to fight properly. Because if you're getting owned by TKAs (unless your a novice marksman, which I wouldn't put past anyone who posts these worthless nerf cries), you're doing something wrong. And if you're another melee prof, you need to understand that we're gonna be faster and as such we're gonna beat the **edit** outta you (unless your a fencer, and I swear to god if you're a fencer complaining about TKAs .. you deserve to be eaten by gnorts). That's just the way it is. Speed > Strength. And if our dmg is your complaing, take a look at swordsman. I was a master swordsman for a while and I could do mindhit3 on people for ludicrous amounts of damage.

Third .. if people like you get their way, this game will be full of underpowered, half broken, non-functional, worthless classes. What's the use of nerfs? Why break a class that works? It just amuses me so much that people who get rocked by TKAs feel the need to spam our forums with their whiney posts. Please, spare us."


I'm mainly a heavy swordsman, and i think its completely ludicrous that you, and most tka for that matter, think that you should be better than the other melee professions no matter what. Some of you rationalize it by saying you are "jedi police", others like you by random opinions you make up(speed>strength) All the brawlers spend the same amount of points, but you still think you should be better than them? The game SHOULD be balanced. All combat classes paying the same points should be on a level playing field.

Heavy swordsman damage is decent, but since mitigation came in, things have changed a lot. We hit tka for less than ever, yet tka somehow got the ability that patch to bypass 91% of dmg mitigation?! Tka already have huge unarmed toughness, which drops the damage even lower. Next patch bleeds are getting nerfed, so the only edge the other brawlers had is going away.

Every patch tka get better than the other brawlers, and you already say they are the best. Do you have any concept of fairness?


I don't want any classes to be broken, i just want classes that are clearly overpowered brought down to a reasonable level. A good start would be to make dizzy wear off quicker, and make mitigation effect tka like it does the other brawlers. Hardly a catastrophic change, but it might force all the l33t dude fotm tka to do something other than spam kd2 and nexu grin all day. And don't say "bring the other classes up to match tka", that makes no sense either. It would take 20x as long to do that, and what fun would it be when EVERYONE is running around in godmode?


flame away, i've heard all the "i read on the internet that tka are tougher than jedis so we should be uber" excuses before, and they don't hold water.
