I would say yes TKA is very powerful. I am a TKA and I use to be a Master BH. I would have no problem with TKA's as long asI stay away from them. All my weopons were Krayt enhanced and it didn't take many shots to take TKA's down. I guess some people just need to learn how to fight at a distance.

you are correct

some people i fought a while ago who were using a gun just stood here and let me hit them.

he then complained to me how overpowered tka was, i said he should have kited me

he didnt know what that ment. lol

/yawn

These posts make me sleepy.

Anyone know any good TKA stories from the books we could start telling when these posts start up. That way we can look at these daily anoyance posts as fun.

Just hyjack these posts and get them off topic. I haven't personally read any of the TKA books, but the Timothy Zahn series kicked all kinds of booty.

The bounty hunter short stories book was great too. Especially the story about bosk being taken down by a wookie bounty hunter. That was a great story. I highly reccomend it.

TKA isn't as powerful as u think. We have literally no defense vs mods, once we are knocked down and dizzied were just as good as dead to a ranged fighter. We have no chance of killing a kiter unless he stops running. We havelittle chance of killing someone who is buffed with 80% kinetic composite on.

So, don't let us catch you, wear kinetic armor, and throw a dizzy/kd on us first and were screwed. Simple as that. We're good offensively but not so good defensively. Without buffs we can't use vibro knucklers, we'll kill ourselves in 3-4 specials. I say we're pretty well balanced.

When will the devs come to their senses and remove people likeDenizen from the forums.

"Good, bad, I'm the guy with the gun."

TKA is overpowered. Sadly, I don't think that making the other professions as powerful will work. Simply because that would mean giving everyone everything.

TKA's have everything. Kinetic damage doesn't matter at the level we can dish it out, even if we're fighting 80% composite.

Kiting? 20m lunge kd . Silly.

I was a Master Commando forever. Yesterday I surrendered all my skills except for Commando to go TKA.

I made novice and was sickened. I can do more with my fist than my guns and bombs.

TKA should be made a defensive profession. Leave in the defense mods and accuracy, but take out speed and damage. And special attacks that are really not needed, like the precision striking or the combos. What other profession gets as much as TKA?

Don't say anything about everything else is broken. The very fact that you would say "we're the only ones not broken, that's why you cry nerf" is silly and isthe #1 sign this profession is busted and overpowered.

Somebody on the dev team played way too much Playstation back in the day.

I've been a pistoleer, carbineer, swordsman, fencer, pikeman and commando. TKA beats them all.

It'snearly impossibleto stay 25m away from a TKA in town.

Say what you will. I will Master this profession until it is nerfed, but I will always remain Commando.

I made novice and was sickened. I can do more with my fist than my guns and bombs. - get a better gun lol at master commando i was dealing almost 5-6K of damage

1) I am not a tka but i am learning it but i think i speak for most people when i say TKA is overpowered. But i do not think that they need to nerf TKA, Id much prefer them to fix every broken class as classes are good at different things.

2) Nerfing does not help anyone or anything

3) You think TKA are overpowered, they probably are but learn ways around it. As a swordsman i do not stand a chance against a tka but i have come to expect that. But atm one main reason is easy KD+Dizzy which i believe thunderheard says is likely to be nerfed or removed.

4) shhhhhhhhhhh, stop crying

5) What ever class you are say here and im sure everyone will agree that they need some loving. Swordsman - we need some new specials as only 2 tree's are usefull, one is useless because its the same as another and our bleeds suck after the nerf. Pikeman - never been one so i cant tell ya. Fencer - im sure they need a fix or 2. Hell TKA need stuff fixing but other classes should take priority.

6) stop whining

Well, actually as a master tka Ihonestly dont think these things are "extremely limiting", and wouldmake up for the benefits you get through the meditation line in comparison to othermelee professions. When people argument about what profession is better, they never define "better" and "balance" usually the arguments circle around player vs. player.

Kiting is about the only thing which makes melee professions screwed. As a rebel it's very frustrating when the stormtroopers start to kite and there is nothing I can do about it really. I use PvP as an example of being limited mainly because that is there the flaw is obvious, if you want a better example a ranged fighter can use warning shot on an animal as many times as they want to bounce it back and forth without getting hit. Now THAT is overpowered.

I read a lot of forums but rarely post unless its in my own profession, but all the nerf crys are very annoying. IF tkm is overpowered right now, it'd only be because many other professions are broken. I'd much rather see those fixed than tkm nerfed. Seriously, how can you call anything overpowered until everything is working?
