My post concerning NERF whiners from the Fencer forum:





I feel that fencers should just be a little more powerful.. that's all.. I like 'em exactly as they are now. I know a lot of people who gripe and don't like TKA's and they're blinding speed and ever offending "kd/dizzy" but look at is this way....


A TKM is SUPPOSED to be blinding fast. They don't have any kindof of ranged weapon! (sword, dagger, etc...) just their vibro.

Soa TKA has to rely on getting in and attacking fast! If you've ever seen any kindof martial artist such as Shaolin Monks.. or people like Bruce Lee.. their speed is astounding. And that's how they survive against people who are armed.


Secondly.. All the fuss about kd/dizzy is really getting out of hand. Fencers can dizzy/lunge same thing.. just not in the same move. Bounty Hunter carbines has a kd/dizzy.. nobody complains about them... Fencers have:


A: Two bleeds (althought crappy)

B: A stun weapon

C: Amazing kd/dizzy resist and dodge

D: Melee AND ranged defense


The only thing TKA's have is their speed and kd/dizzy.


So please... the TKA's are just fine in my opinion....

Atone you are as clueless as ever....


/sigh


I want to see you beat my character with 80% kinetic armor. High damage doesn't mean shnit when you only have one damage type that is the easiest to defend against.

AP is broken in PVP. If it worked I can tell you EVERYONE and there mother would be a rifleman for the T-21. Heavy armor piercing would rip through Comp like butter, even more so then the jawa, as it is.

its all about the damage per second ...thats why people complain...but with 90% comp. DSP doesn't matter if they only get 50 dmg per hit.

Unfortunately, the nerf criers dont want to hear logic, they want to hear: "Yes, your profession is now L33T." Dam Kids.

OK first of all I relise that TKA does an insane amount of damage


Yes i had an above post that said I was sick of nerf criers but. after dueling my fencer friend today(who is a master by the way) and beating him.(I'm 2/3/3/3)


Now why should a mid level tka beata master fencer you ask? We shouldn't


TKA does to much damage. We can dish out almost more damage then a heavy swordsmen


I mean come on a unarmed man doing more damage then a man wielding a large sharp object?(yes I beat a master heavy swordsmen too the other day)(without KD/dizzy)


So yes TKA damage should maybe be toned down a bit I mean we do a insane amount of damage


and I apoligize for my ranting in the past






OK in defence of TKM here , im fencer /tkm ive being tkm for all time since starting playing this game , ive also beingmaster swordman , so i know the melee profession quite well , Now TKM is not over powered in PVE in so far as master sword and pike will always out do them in damage , in pvp we are good against peeps with no armour , with comp armour 80% res we are , most of the time going to die , unless you know your profession and are not one of thoses , KD Dizzy , Unarmed hit3 spamers ,


Now with regargs to you fighting a fencer ive fought a lot of them in dual's and pvp , in thoses dual's mainly to see how to beat them and how i get on toe-toe , Fencer's are a lot better that us in PVP and 9 times out of 10 they win the reason you beat your mate was maybe he didnt know his profession ,


Also with regard to TKM being on a par with Heavy swordman in the damage catagoury you are very wrong there swordman out damages TKM in pvp any day of the week with his weakest weapon , but in PVP swordman is not a good profession and will most of the time get killed by a tkm , the reason for this is Swordman is very slow & there acc is Pathetic , which means you miss alot ,


So on the basis of your statment yes you can beat a swordman , fencer maybe you were lucky as im 0302 in fencer and tkm ave dualed me and find it very hard to hit me , fencer is faster and has dodge + better def vs dizzy and KD


SO TKM is not overpowered we are working as we are soposed to , the same with fencer and rifleman to a dergree , all the other profession in this game are bugged and broken at the moment look at BH and Commando for instance , at point blank a commando miss 4-5times with a flmae thrower

The answer is for them to stop just reading the skill tree... If I go after a mob that is low or no kinetic resist then I have the best chance...


If I go into the Geno caves and run into a high kinetic resist mob.. My wife (Master Swordsman)doesa lot better.. with my 80% kinetic resist armor I can beat them but it takes forever... I am not ALMIGHTY when they have high kinetic resists I amjust a tank.. I was a Master Carbineer as welland I did better when I examined them and pulled out a carbine that he had the least resistance to.


Sometimes people say "fix" and they just mean "fix so I can beat them".


I honestly don't see why people say we are overpowered.. If you have 80% kinetic resists and maintain at least 21m distance with a ranged weapon you will get a chance to see just how overpowered a TKA is...


The conversation would go something like "ow ow ow coooooooome baaaaaaaack ow ow ow ow ow ow ow ow... (blaster fire can be seen from about 50 m out.."


But an "in your face" pistol jockey with no armor IS going to die if in melee range.... Most people forget this and just stand there... These people are too stupid to live and its a way of thinning the herd..


I dueled my friend and he was an "in your face" pistol jockey.. just stood there.. I whomped him good.... he was logged into my wifes pc.. his first words "You shouldn't be able to beat me with your bare hands when I have a blaster."


Okie.. lets switch... I beat my character with his pistol jockey... I stayed about 30m away and running.. when he started to close in, obviously burst run, I burst run too... he ran around a building... I stayed put.. he wasn't as patient as I was and came running out... He died miserably..


His first words were "You kiting coward"
