Oneinevitable fact regarding the nerf bat:When there areposts labeled as above; you are to late, shes gonna hit.

heh I agree 100% with Croakie

It isn't so much that TKA is overpowered, which it is to a degree, but rather that it is so easy to master and requires so few SP.

Let me see, Master Doctor + TKM... heh

No one character should be able to be a master of two elite professions, or if that is allowed there has to be some way to balance it out.

Personally I just hit MBH and while I enjoy it and pick my fights carefully, I feel a bit cheated in the amount of work, time and SP used to attain this. Envious? Possibly, considering the most powerful class in the game is one of the easiest to master and requires the fewest number of skill points.

The lamest thing is the people who think they are l337 ubah PvPers because they hit you with the kd/dizzy combo and spam it till you die. While it is a valid tactic with the current game mechanics, it isn't exactly something to go bragging about.

i agree.....people whine entierely to much. pistoleer which should be just as good as carbineer and rifleman does like 1/4 the damage. a rifleman with a full suit of composite against a a tkm with composite up close would win easily. advanced strife with a jawa rifle does 4-5 THOUSAND damage while the tkm woulddo 500-800 damage. i say fix pistoleer and if your going to nerf anyone nerf rifleman. they shouldnt be able to attack from 10m away and kill an atst from that close either.

heh you guys think that distance means something

as fast as characters move and frankly as short of a range as ranged weapons have the distance between targets isn't a big deal

64m max range for a rifle haha I can use a slingshot farther

I remember in beta all the testers went over and over how stupid the weapon ranges were but the devs just shrugged it off and still do

lmao. That's why you wear armor dip**edit**. Oh and that damage WOULD NEVER HAPPEN if you are standing up. So get some uber pistoleer kd defense. Seems like everyone else does.

Smuggler + Pistoleer here, Just poped by to check on the compertion

No no no no nerfing, I carnt find a decent chef any wer since they wacked the melon wiv da nerfy stick,

As far as PvP gose , If i can kite i win, if theTka gets in close he wins, Thats as it should be..

Now who tiedme shoe laces

On one hand I don't blame people for being upset their chosen profession doesn't work. Also, TKA doesn't "work" 100% either. FoW is laughable at best, and our CoB is useless. On the other, it upsets me that the attitude of "As a Y, my class is broken and therefore I'm not as strong as X, which does work. Nerf X." Thats not constructive at all, and leads to either a very boring or very broken game. You can only nerf things so much before they just become broken all over again.

As for the comment that it takes "so few skill points"... ok. It takes 98 skill points. Just like rifleman. Just like pistoleer, carbineer, swordsman, fencer, pikeman. Just like any other one-tree elite combat profession.

Also, as a side note, I think people want to be able to beat anyone without using any tactics. Like I said in a different thread, its common knowledge that TKA's have limited range. Its common knowledge that, if you get into range (which has to be fudged since the servers suck and client/server latency is so **edit**ing bad), and you get knocked down, you're going to get your ass kicked. Thats all there is to it. The same way if you stay at range to a rifleman, you're going to get your ass kicked. Its how it works.

But no... people would rather be able to stand in one spot, /eyeshot 50 times, and win. They don't want to stay away from a melee player. They don't want to figure out ways to use tactics. They just want to be able to "pwn" everybody and never lose. Period.

It takes me forever to get unarmed IV and novice TKA... I'm still seeking where the heck their powers go

TKA is far from overpowered to say the least ! TKA has no dot like many other professions get to enjoy .

TK's also have no ranged attacks , if a pistoleer , carbiner loses to a TKM ? They were simply to close then and DON'T know how to use their profession wisely in PVP . I have seen and know of several TKM that have been slain by simple novice pistoleers & or carbine , rifleman several times and the reason is BECAUSE they are smart enough to stay over 20m away during combat , any TKM is completely helpless then as I well know LOL .

To conclude my point if you duel a TKM within 10 M .. YOUR DEAD pure & simple

If you duel a TKM or attack one from a distance and maintain distance from any TKM ... You are CERTAIN to win

You don't need 10m to be dead, the range of lunge is 20m. Then the TKA catch you then you're dead.
That's stupid, and not funny. It feels like playing DAoC (with his broken PvP system).

heh yah l33t skillz for sure there spam knowndown and you are t3h pvp masta!!111. Real TKM's will admit and know they are overpowered most are adults and like the class regardless of whatever happens the only ones who do not think TKM needs nerfed is the power hungry d00ds who think they should be able to pwn evenyone in pvp in the game and all mobs on a class that takes all of about 7-10 hours to master from brawler1.

That or up all the other proffesional classes and make tkm skill require mastering of the brawler AND scout tree along with TKM.Bounty hunters have to do it and they are crap compared to a tkm.If TKM is gonna be the best pvp class in the game atleast make it where you have to spend time and skill points to get that way going up 1 line of brawler right into the best pvp class in the game is a JOKE.Whine all you want and scream envy blah blah blah I would whine also if I had to play a class that is that overpowered with that little work if it were to be nerfed or adjusted.

Wow, TKA is the master pvp profession? Then all those times I lost to a rifleman using a jawa ion rifle must mean I just suck. Or how about carbineers/smugglers/bountyhunters with their ranged knockdown kicking my ass from 40 meters away, guess it's just me. Oh yeah but we can beat fencers, aslong as they're not using COB. At least we can beat combat medics, that is until they mind poison us and start running the other way.

Point being, that if you think TKA is the best pvp class then it's only because you must be the greatest teras kasi master the star wars universe has ever known. Honestly, If I wanted to be good at pvp I'd be a ranged profession because they're the ones who truly dominate pvp. I like teras kasi because it has nifty abilities, is good in pve and if I have buffs and armor I just might kill 1 or 2 people in a raid... maybe.

Hmm I thought the range of lunge for a TKA was only 15 m ? If you have mastered the Brawler profession , I heard Lunge attack will reach 25 m then .

ethany do you realize you can do any melee prof and also be master doc. you can also hit master pistoleer and master any melee. it is not unique to master a couple profs to any profession...except bh. also, if master doc and tka you lose terrain negotiation which may have some effect in some situations. nerf all the profs so we can all sit around and complain how boring the pvp is.
