Well I'm just saying all the other profs have a wide selection of weapons... we only get 2... hands and vk's... and its still classifed as unarmed fighting if you use a thing that like fits over your hands.



Bloodfin, Rageus, Master Gunfighter, Master Doctor.

Ever noticed that a Doc in real life goes by M.D.?
Well does that mean they are a Master Doctor aswell?

I would have no problems with that, and would rather rejoice.

In answer to "how do you get the new weapons" the answer is "from a weaponsmith"


If your weaponsmith cannot make said weapons yet, you can help him/her out by obtaining as many components and schematics as possible from the new "Geonosian cave" dungeon, which I *believe* is on Tatooine, but I could easily be wrong about that.


Pistoliers get a weapon now that does stun damage, riflemen get a medium range, AP 2 acid rifle with between 35-50% wound rate (depending on quality). The various components can be used to make higher damage versions of certain other weapons as well. I recall seeing a screenshot for a higher damage power hammer, but I have no idea what else is possible.


The link I followed was posted on the rifleman profession forum, but I'm sure it's probably being discussed in the other profession forums as well.

Actually the Geonosian Caves are on Yavin.

Teras kasi should get no weapons at all. I would like to see the certification for vibroknucklers moved to the smuggler tree also. Brass knuckles sound like dirty fighting to me.

hmmm...


How about, instead of a weapon, a new special move (aquired at Master)...


"Bones of Steel"


Using a pure mental focus, a TKA could channel his energies into strengthening his bones (temporarily), so that his BODY (hands and feet) can hit with the force of steel (i.e. AP MED).


The maneuver could take DOUBLE the amount of HAM cost CoB does, but to MIND, and it could last for something like DOUBLE the time of CoB, or at least significantly LESS than Powerboost (which would be way too long).


Once turned on, ANY attack or special used during that time would be treated as an AP MED attack.


What do ya think???








I agree that unarmed shouldn't get weapons, I could go for an idea like the one above though.

Again lets all read our title "Teras kasi" ok now that means we fight with "Open hands" or with nothing in them (not even brass knuckles) :}


We should not have a weapon at all our body and mind are our weapons. I understand that this is Star Wars and it would be cool to have some technology thrown in to the mix. That and "IF" a martial artist was going to war I would think he would use something to give him the most advantage possible.


1. Take away our VK's or at least the schematic so they may die out slowly.


2. Make our specials cost HALF as much HAM with just our"open hands"to encourage using all thespecialswe have.


3.Then make a "PFG" power feild generator/schematicthat can only be used when overt. This will make getting involved in the GCW more apealing. It would use the same graphic as a "PSG" so no extra graphics are needed as well as work the same was by turning it on from our inventory.The power feild generator could be made to do energy, stun, maybe even impact dammage that could be used in times of war when all opponents are in very high kinetic resist battle armor.


Then we will truely be Unarmed, staying true to our title and pathas well asstill hold on to our honor by only using a "weapon" (PFG) in times of war.


Lower HAM would promote the use of skill/specials and tactics to win not 90% kinetic composite or 3200 HAM doctor buffs with spice.


TKA should notbe armor clad drug users.


I would hope that just adding code and text is easier than adding graphics and tools so we can make "fast and furious" speeder bikes : {


Cry NERF nerf our Vk's that is.

TKA SHOULD get new wep(s). and don't tell me unarmed shouldn't get weps. look at chinese kung fu, the original unarmed combat style. there's like 100 different weapons in kung fu that can be used WITH the unarmed style together in harmony. that's bs. TKA should get something.

/Correspondent Hat off


Actually Teras Kasi means 'Steel Hands' - The question of whether we should fight with weapons or not is one long disputed. Personally I prefer unarmed, but I can understand other people's viewpoints.

I think that they need to make a weapon that UA 1-4 on the Brawler tree to use. I remember how hard it was to grind up to Novice Tera Kasi

All I ask is that we get something other than kinetic. I don't care what it is, I just want to be able to do SOMETHING to mobs with 100% kinetic resists.

We don't need any new weapons, we aren't made to fight with weapons. I would also liek to see the Vk shcmatic dissapear. I think that the ideas with "steel bones" and "Knife Hands" are good ones. they woudl be really fun, plus makign the teras kasi treee more complex. We shouldn't cryu about not having any other damage types, we are the strongest profession in teh game right now, we don't need anythign new guys, jsut hope not to be nerfed in teh near future.....



I supported the old system, but it didn't help. I now support working with the devs to try and make the new game something we'll enjoy.
