oh my word
Rifleman are not too much of a problem if you are clever, 2 rifleman against your 1 TKM however is a slightly different matter but thats another topic. And if the rifleman is a TK as well, its gonna be more difficult if you are completely melee
King of rifleman's weapons is Jawa = stun damage - buy some 38% plus stun armor, 45% base imperial stun PSG with effectiveness slice = additional 60%
As a TKM, we are blessed with high accuracy and state attacks
use Stun = lowers defence and attack
Blind = chance to hit
Initimidate = strength of attacks i believe (someone correct me if i'm wrong)
Warcry = 10 secs of not being hit ( use peace straight after if you are in range)
Dizzy = apply this first
KD2 = if it sticks he is toast for a good couple of seconds
headhit1 = targeted unhealable mind pool (unless there is a CM around)
COB = increases your secondary stats a little and your chance to get up from a KD/Posture down
use the terrain, use LOS if in cities, make him come to you, hide so he gets into YOUR range
womp away
its also nice if you have some good buffs from an dancer and a musician + 2 brandies + 1 canape + vercupti

Chewie,
Jawa has light armor piercing, PSG work only against no armor piercing, so for stun dmg, it's only good against batton and pistol.
Intimidate lower the damage, actually, half them I think, and stack (in time).
Lots of people use food against KD, so Dizzy and lunge is a better option.
Mind is healable with blue milk.
Warcy stop the person combat queue for 10 seconds, so, beside no more hit, it's also no more healing.

yes Jawa has AP1 but PSG has AR1, and it also stacks with Armor
Example jawa vs 40% stun armor + 60% Stun PSG
master head shot floats 600, 40% = 240, further 60% = 144
intimidate = 50% less damage as you say, therefore = 72 damage
all this without being stun/blind
Yes people do use food against KD, using lunge is not the usually the best optiom,
If you are master brawler then Lunge2 = KD from 20 m
i agree on blue milk, but you hardly see blue milk used when people double up with brandy
800 more M/F/W is better than a 600 heal mind 33%filling use blue milk, (do you not use double brandy? - certain circumstances allow a third brandy but this timing is rarely available when you can hardly find opposite faction to kill, and you are constantly keeping your mind bar full
/agree with Warcry

PSG is bugged against AP weapons
It's in the bug list of AS.
Lunge2 is better, but only master brawler have it, and all the TKA are not Master Brawler.
Only buff I use is spice.
And I'm an addict.
Just wanted to say that mind is currently healable.
Not the usual way to do things, but nobody force you to follow what everybody do.

When you finally get to TK Novice, you'll thank yourself for the horrific grind that is the unarmed tree of Brawler. Once you fill up a couple trees of TKA, you'll wonder what the hell you were doing in any other combat profession if PvE is the goal. I can't comment on PvP because I haven't tried it, but I've heard TKA isn't that good. Oh, well. I'll take kicking the crap out of rancors and krayts any day.
Well I've been a TKM / 4 4 0 4 Cm for about 5 months now. TKA dmg in PVP will not be effective enough without some kind of back-up damage type. However, it is an awesome tool for spamming states, intimidate,dizzy,blind,stun, even bleed if ua3 sticks one, and you have 2 posture change moves to keepoponents from kiting you.
