I agree with all you folks that are saying NO to stun. Stun is over rated and from rumblings I have heard there is a big armor nerf on the way, there was something about it on the armorsmith boards. If armor is fixed we will be fine. Right now everyone that isnt Fencer, Pistols, Rifle or CM are at a major disadvantage in PvP. Lets get the actual PROBLEM fixed not just improvise a solution. However for future damage types I would love to see a Cold Damage VK. Could be explained that the blade is hollow and filled with a chemical coolant that causes the blade to be incredibly cold.

wow...some one really wants me one-starred.

I also dont think we should have stun VK's but i think we should have something other than heat most **edit** that has high kinetic resists has high heat resists too so it wouldnt help much in PvE and it wont help in PvP becuase as many have said the dmg type isnt the problem the uber composite is the problem. I think that acid VK's would be nice but i doubt that they will change the RK's to do acid instead of stun so mehh i give up on the subject. I'll stick to nuna's.

Not to be sarcastic here but we have 250 skill points to use. If you want Stun damage then pick up fencer or rifleman and quit asking for Stun VKs. Armor will be revamped in the combat balance and until then we will have to work as we have worked in the past and deal with it. When the combat balance happens then we can look at what needs to be improved for our profession. Please people, quit asking for things that just aren't going to happen. I would like to compete better in pvp myself and I have points used in Armorsmith that will not allow me to be as capable as I could be but that is my decision. The game isn't about always winning, it's about fun. I admit it isn't fun always getting beat, but maybe it is not the profession that you have but the person using it. Just because your title says Master ______ it doesn't mean that you have fully mastered the profession and one who does so makes that profession better then average with the way they use it. I have seen totally useless masters of their profession and I have seen true masters of their profession. This is my opinion and until the combat rebalance I will just take what I have which is already a great profession.

Well the Electric is really unique forget any DOT effects. I mean, only 3 professions can even DO electric (Bounty Hunter LLC, Commando Lightning Cannon, Pikeman Lance)

Let me say this again... If you are a TKM of any sort, and need STUN weapons to win a fight. You deserve to be tarred and feathered.

For everyone having Buffs and L337 H4X armor, I can still do anywhere from 50-100 damage with my REGULAR VK's if I don't get stated. And those are people running around with their L337 80-90% Kinetic Special Protection based 37% STUN Suits. Heat's usually 60-70% Resistance. So now instead of doing 50-100 (Not being stated) I can do maybe 80-120? Thats minimum, no doubt it'll probably be a little more.

TK's don't need stun dmg... but something other than heat which most everything is immune to would be nice... I would think like electric would be good, but then ns elders would still evade us.... but tk's wih stun would be way too powerful... though I have a feeling that all armor will have a major change when the combat balance hits... so I am thankful for the new knuckler

heat is still better than kinetic for PvP, kinetic is 80 protected in PvP, and heat is typically 60 protected in PvP.But heat is awful in PvE and kinetic is great in PvE, so we will be fine.Be grateful, besides if they give us stun it'll most likely be AP0.

They arn't going to give you stun.

The armor peircing on whatever weapon your stun weapon would be is irrelivent, becouse the item will never exist with the game the way it is now.

Not becouse of TKAs skills or speed or defenses, but becouse of +250 unarmed damage

You could have a +0-+0 damage stun knuckler with 0 armor peircing and you will still have at least +250-250 BASE damage.

Thats an average damage of 250, swinging once per second, and NEVER EVER missing.

ANd IF you dizzied and KD some one(wich you wouldn't have to anymore) they wouldn't have a chance at all.

so knock it off with the stun.

I know how much some of you would like to be compleatly unstoppable, but it really is just a dumb idea.

It's a moot point. We're not getting Heat OR Stun.

not the section under rewards where it says Razor knucklers have been removed.
