I fail to see how two teras kasi masters can distinguish themselves When you have THE EXACT i mean the same damn skills as the other... If you add in armor and vks and stuff it really takes some mental thought... What armor peices shall i wear the HAM costs blah blah blah.. Buffs are a bad idea. Its so stupid its like taking two carbineers giving them the exact same everything and say go.. Its whoever gets the lukiest. We all know everyones gunna end up using kd and ua3.






Have you seen a TKA fight with armor? I was at a pvp tourny last night 2 tkms full armored and buffed. The fight took 30 minutes..Yes 30 minutes we finished 1/2 of the tourny before they called it a draw and went on. One guy was a trandoshan.

Yeah what i am sayin is one of the other buff or armor perfferable armor cuz that depends on how sucessful they are in the game being able to afford good armor with the AA's.. But then again buffs are random so thats a large downside. I think the perfect melee tourney would be all moves allowed + armor nothing more no spices nothing. Having armor lets you decide which peices you want to use and what not. Vks are also very needed.

yeah, go ahead and do that


theres a lot more to playing as a tkm than spamming kd2 and uh3. if you think thats all there is to it, then you should make a toon on this guys server and go see what happens!


if i thought, even for a second, that this game was nothing more than what skill boxes and what equiptment you have, i would quit and never look back. you have to at least figure in processor speed!


but seriously, theres bad, better, and best ways to work tk. events like this really help sort all that stuff out. its a cool idea. wish my tk was on your server.

Yeah i know what your saying i understand it all too well, i am a master doc/tkm and i can last hours no doubt. Tkm's With armor usually makes for a great fight. And if your thinking we shouldnt allowed armor cuz not everyone can afford it, thats totally the reason why it should be allowed, this game is dependent on sucess. If you want a fair fight take two tkms with nothing and let them go at it i garuntee it will be lame boring and stupid and show no skill in the game or in the tkm profession. Funny thing is this guy prolly already made his decision and stopped reading days ago.

Not really because not anyone can afford it. Basicaly as a time factor. It gets boring after 2-3 minutes..

I just thought about this some more, what about allowing buffs and VK,but no armor and no healing? How long would a fight last? Obviously we wouldn't want fights to last 30 minutes because the tournament would take forever. There are probably different kinds of buffs that someone would choose, right?

buffs other than powerboosting have nothing to do with teras kasi, and the merits of individual buffs would be more of a competition of buff packs and doc skills, not teras kasi skills. if its a teras kasi tournament, then i would try to limit as many factors as possible to teras kasi skills/attributes.


picture it this way... if the competitors have time to get doc buffed before the fight, whats to stop it from ultimately coming down to a question of who got db/rezzed enough times to get the ideal substat buffs, etc...


buffs vary too greatly from one another to be able to operate invisibly in the fight. it would become a very significant factor.


on the other hand, if you want it to be a general melee duel match, then i would say anything goes. it depends on what youre going for- an exploration of teras kasi or an exploration of melee pvp.
