It's probably safe to assume, though, that the Blaster Fist is going to the TKA's. Yes, Smuggler and Commando both have Unarmed prerequisites, too, but neither of them place any emphasis on Unarmed combat while TKA is exclusively unarmed melee.

As for the rifles and other melee weapons, you're most likely correct. The BH may get some of the pistol certifications while the pistoleer gets others, and heck, they may even give one to the smugglers since they don't have any of their own. I think it's safe to assume that the two-handed weapons can be handled by any Master Swordsman, but the real question is where the certification will lie on the tree.

But remember blast has basically be restricted to Commandos before and they do have the unarmed requirement. I think it is safe to say in this case yes it is yours... but I hope you understand all melee equipment might not be yours is all I am saying.

I disagree with two parts of your assessment, however. I would say that the far majority of blast damage comes not from Commandoes, but from Swordsmen. I think there are far more Powerhammer-wielding Swordsmen out there than Rocket Launcher- and grenade-wielding Commandoes.

Secondly, from the language thatt he devs are using, I think that the Blaster Fist is going to be doing energy damage, not blast. After all, blasters for the most part in the game are overwhlemingly energy weapons, and the usage of the word "blaster" in the knuckler title suggests to me that it's a point-blank energy knuckler and not one that explodes on contaqct doing blast damage.

Although that would be good, too.

do the blaster knucks fire blast or energy damage?

Not known yet, but I presume from the language the devs use ("Blaster Knuckler" as opposed to "Blast Knuckler") they will be energy damage.

Edit: The exact language from the linked page is: "Description: Fires a very short ranged energy blast during impact." Methinks that's energy damage and not blast.

This is a repost of what I've not long put in another thread. I don't meen to sound rude by just coping it in, but it's the best way I can word any of this information.

Whether or not they will or not be in the game is yet to be said. The weapons in the CU/R/B Weapon Friday Feature is only part one, meening there are probably more to come. We were told that we would get the RK's (which would be heat damage if they stick with what they were going to do), I'd wait for confirmation either way before saying it won't be released.

It may or may not be. Either way there is no deffinate answer. & even if there was I could not tell you either way.
