The lunge from BRAWLER is the only skill that TKA's have with a range greater than app. 5 m's. We cannot dizzy from that range (the 15m), and the lunge is simply a posture change down. If you can't react to being put into a kneeling position fast enough, then sorry. And by the way, I see enough people in PvP be able to stand before I close the 10m to know that it can be done.

IMHO it's fair to use whatever the skill points you've spent have allowed you to use.



In particular getting a pet with dizzy strike and knockdown you may find valuable

you have to admit a 15 meter lunge is more like a short flight dude? superman style. Lunging 50 feet isn't exactly logical? Even for a computer game.

Before you reply........

Please think about it--- lunging....50 feet??







Um, you are going to argue logical??
Um...TKAs meditating wounds away. I guess thats logical.

Or jedis shooting lightening beams out of thier hands, thats logical.

Or pets showing up out of nowhere. Yep, this whole game is logical.

Thanks for the reply bro- I understand where you are coming from.


I have been knocked down by TKA's from ridiculous distances Lol. Unless they have rubber arms or are using the force then this is impossible Lol. Even if the consensus being 16 meters is accurate- THAT is still make believe- isn't 16 meters like 52 FEET?



So lets all pretend TKA isn't broken and somehow a TKA can shove me to the ground and make me dizzy from over 50 FEET away- jeeze guys come on.







is it fair that a ranged fighter can run in any direction, top speed, torso turned 90 degrees and still hit their target without tripping over their own legs?


i've heard that snub nosed pistols are pretty tough at over25 yds, but scout blasters and dx2's have no prob hitting a target burst running away.


there are a lot of things that don't make sense in the real world and that's why this is a game.

omg.... lunge is a brawler move. Go to the skill box, go to master brawler, put your cursor over one of the lunges, (unarmed if u are whining about taht one) and read it. It says "KNOCKDOWN" I could dizzy+kd you at fencer III, and I could take a tusken captain at fencer III.. I saw my friend do it. U just dizzy and do unarmed lunge, and boom, hes dzzy and falls down. you warcry and you beat the piss outa him.


MAN I'm getting so sick of you little girls whining about this profession, THERE IS NOTHING WRONG WITH IT!!! LEAVE US ALONE

to the original poster.


I am a TKM, Master Brawler, and a CH...When I duel, I dont normally get my pets out due to I dont want to get themkilled becuase I might go out hunting later and might need them, but use all the tools you have. Use that kimo, use whatever you have that isnt specifically banned at the beginning of the duel. I expect ranged professions to kite me, thats fine, it would be stupid for them to stand toe to toe and try to take me down the their pistol.


to others:


If it wasnt for the unrealistic melee range, playing a brawler class would suck. 1 meter is about 3 ft...look at your arms and legs. The max range you would have without 'lunging' at a target would be about 1-1.5 m. With lunging, it would be about 2-3 m. Imagine trying to be that close just to hit someone who is kiting you in this game. It would be next to impossible. The 20m is very unrealistic, but it allows brawlers of all types to be able to actually hit something more than their 'realistic' reach. Like someone else said, its not realistic to turn 180 degrees around while running away full speed and still be able to do special shots. Hell, its unrealistic to take down a kimo-sized creature without something the size of an atst at your side.
