Why are people still complaining about KD/Dizzy? A rifleman can dizzy you and downposture you from 60 meters and then whip out a jawa ion rifle and master head shot you to death, but the TKA's are not on the rifleman boards crying nerf for that. If anything in this game is imbalanced, it's the current HAM system and the classes that currently own it. Mind damage is a hair away from a requirement in PvP these days, and the classes that can wreck your mind the most get STUN weapons (rifleman and now the new pistol for BH). Everyone I encounter in PvP these days has a set of 80% composite. Ican barely touchthem. I have on a 40% stun layer on my helmet and rifleman can still destroy me from 60 meters with master head shot. BH's also have a KD/dizzy. Rifleman can accomplish this as well if they pick up the ranged support line. Fencers as well. If you don't like the Dizzy/KD combo then pick up doctor, or make friends with one. /healState is your buddy.

A lousy Commando who can't one shot. Apparently you haven't played the prof. Commandos 1 shot kill anyone without armor pretty much no matter what if they hit, which is about 65% of the time. I would really like to see you try to 1 shot someone in 80 composite armor. After lag, ping, etc is factored ina Commando may think he is 16m, but thats after he is on his ass. Although getting up from KD really isnt difficult at all and once you do most people have theyre combat queue spammed and dont have time to clear it before you get that same KD2 on them. Then they just spam away. BTW I have just dropped down to 0040 commando today for you guessed it Rifleman/TKM.

....and if you know a chef and eat two doses of knockdown food to boost your resist to +90 then there's really not problem with KD/dizzy, of course if everyone ran around in full armor and always stayed more than the prescribed 20 feet PvP would be pretty damn stupid. Cry me a river that commandos have to get within 16m and if you can't manage to one shot someone you must be a pretty lousy commando.

Commandos are certified to use a cdef pistol, yes? Equip said pistol, attack TK, run opposite direction. This is all you need to do to defeat a TK.

You indeed have a limited view of your profession you can use your launcher pistol or use several charged weapons. Relying only on the flamer is a mistake. its accuracy is very bad, and especially against CoB'd melee fighters. I suggest you look further into your profession than flamesingle2.

Been to commando, didn't care for it. I believe your complaint was that commandos can't kite in PvP...which is obviously insane. If you come across someone buffed/spiced/brandied/in 80% sliced composite there is no such thing as a profession that will drop that person in one hit, and a TKM probably couldn't kill it with KD/dizzy because the person would still have enough HAM left over after the dizzy wore off to kite the TKM. That's why I claim you're not a very good commando, you obviously rely far to much on your flame thrower and armor to save you, which is probably why pretty much any TKM will beat you.

Facts about TKM's that you clearly don't know:

- If you rely on KD2 and UAH3 in PvP you will die, early and often

- If you run around chasing people with guns in the open you will die, early and often

- If you rely completely on doctors buffs and composite armor to keep you alive you'll be screwed the first time you die

If you played your profession well you wouldn't need some "batarang" or whatever to kill people. I don't wear armor or use buffs in PvP and my record since making TKM is insanely good. If they ever did give us some stupid batman grappling hook I wouldn't use it...for one thing, if you're a TKM and you're not a moving target you're a dead one and for another thing, if I needed a long range weapon to kill someone I'd just pick up a gun.

Finally ... yes IF YOU KITE ... You may win ... idiots that go point blank as a commando, pistols whatever and get knocked down, deserve it ...

I personally will intimidate ( + 16 ) then go blind, stun, and then try a knockdown ....

Last night a commando ran right at me, and yes I knocked him down, but that was his stupidity, you burn most TKAs and kite, your good to go, now a master doc /tka no ... different story
