Thread: Advise for a poor Trandoshan

As the topic would suggest, I, being a trandoshan should be the most logical race for a tkm what with our free bonuses to unarmed. Sadly, I lack the finesse that most of my "lesser" co-races seem to be blessed with.
My problem is that fickle mistress that is the mind pool. Despite having thrown all my stat points into mind and its subs, I still end up causing myself MAJOR mind damage by using my specials. Around 5 seconds is all it takes for me to mind incap myself when fighting gurrecks, and you can tell where that leads to (one VERY mad trandoshan). I have tried everything to aid my survival (buffs, 90% composite armor, special HAM affecting food and drink) but nothing seems to work. If one of my fellow trandoshans could please post a strategy that works well for them, I'd be very much obliged
Ok, First of all you need Brandy and either Canape or that other food Arsiha or whatever. Second, make sure you have a helmet with an Encumberance slice not an effectiveness slice.
Lastly, welcome to the life of a Trando. You hit a little harder but you jack up your battle fatigue faster than any other species. My advice where that is concerned is to get yourself some 160dmg VKs, get a damage slice set, then add a power up.
As for PvP, you had better be aware that when fighting another melee profession (if they have food and spice) they will outlast you toe to toe due to your battlefatigue racking up so fast (I can max out in just under 15min), so get a second profession with that one.
but yeah...always, ALWAYS, have food. I carry it in multiple crates.
