What I don't understand is why people who cry nerf want to do harm to a good profession rather than trying to help their own profession. Is it because its easier to whine than to state problems in other professions...guess so. """Better to cause more pain than to heal damaged professions.""" My quote for all those that cry nerf.

people call nerf because its easier to blame others than blame themselves.
also if you notice almost all the arguemnts why the prof should be nerfed, always leave other information out such as "what a tk can do, all other melee classes can do just as well".
As fer ft's not killin krayts, ehres some things to consider:
vks are ap1, fts have no ap
heat resistance compared to kinetic (if its the same the ap1 makes up for it a lil)
but meh, not like thatll help, most nerf herders ae insanely stubborn and even when faced with evidence that proves all their points to the contrary theyll still push on and pretend the evidence doesnt exist.

what the majority does not understand is that tka arent overpowered, they are strong, and nerfing them just cus ppl are whining would be suicide by soe, would be like nerfing jedi's when they get strong, and blabla 
tka are force ppl in some way, pikeman are not and so on.

teras kasi is the allpowerfull profesion of this game and i know i'm gonna get slammed for using that phrase but it's true. the amount of damage they can do also by punching and kicking comething is ubsurd. what other profesion can take out 4 kryats at once? and tell me if logicaly this make sense if a master commando walks up to a kryat it takes him a while to kill it even with a FLAMETHROWER a deadly weapon, whereas a TKM can walk up to four of them at once make thier hands glow punch the and they roll over dead.
Hihi I'd like to see that

I've said it before. TKA are "obviously" strong. "Obviously" in that the combat spam seems to tell everyone this. They don't realize how weak we are in the subtle ways, and they don't use that to their advantage.
Status Defense at Master Level:
Defense vs Blind +10
Defense vs Dizzy +5
Defense vs Knockdown +20
Defense vs Posture Change +30
Defense vs Stun +15
Defense vs Dizzy +5
Defense vs Knockdown +20
Defense vs Posture Change +30
Defense vs Stun +15
People only whine cuz we're flashy and have big combat spam numbers (and in comparison to ACTUAL damage, they're not all that big). And whine cuz they didn't realize they coulda dizzied us and knocked us down on our butts. Oh no, we're overpowered cuz THEY didn't think to try other tactics than just "Oooh, outdamage them!!"
What? Does that mean we're balanced? Oh dear god no, not....balanced....how could they do that to us? Balanced!

heres some info that you might find interesting
I was gettin bored today so i asked to duel an mtk (friend of mine so of course he said yes), an i had an almighty 3 in df an 1/0/0/1 in pistoleer. It took him over 5min to kill me, hes using vk were both unarmoured and unbuffed. I managed to drop him to half health and action in this time.
The guy was a master tk, an it took him that long.....
The only way he managed to get me was with a well timed unarmed lunge 1 (brawler skill), that dropped me to a knee an insured my death (i was kiting like mad (damn dantooine lag, he went from 40m away to 20m in 1 second lol))
I dont think that tk is overpowered, i just think the nerf whiners are crap at pvp an should stick to pve.

We are far from over powered! try only having 1 damage type (kinetic) then try fighting someone with 80-90% kinetic resist composite or ubese armor then tell me TKM's are over powered. But even those who have the uber armor whereI can only deal 20-30 damage toI can still beat you know why? Because I know my profession and I am smart 
Like others have posted before try learning your profession and practice and experiance will pay off. I have been beaten many times by most all combat professions and the reason they beat me was because they used tactics. Maybe you NERF crying babies should spend your time developing these tactics instead of spending your time crying NERF on the boards because Teras Kasi Artists are not going to be nerfed and if we are then its only going to be the meditation tree but I am highly confident nothing will be changed.

mmmh rawk_star... do you know if anyone is intimidated, we'll hit for half is normal damage ?
For example an intimidated TKA, who usually hit for 2500 will hit for 1250 
sometimes less
in other words, a pikeman with high armor 80% kinetic against a TKA =>
max damage 20-30 ?
+ intimidated = 10-15
add blind, and we cant see anything
add stun, and it's less than 10-15
add dizzy, and KD, and it's 0
