Teras Kasi Archive

I sure didnt feel that " supper uber " going up against anything decent in the game, which all has 80% Kenetic resist. Or in some cases 100% ! And I sure didnt feel that super uber in PVP with everyone wearing 80% kenetic composite.

I am sick of reading through treads on these boards from template stackers and melee professions complaining how they are loosing all there power in CU. With buffs, armor, food and a knife you could kill a krayt dragon by your lonesome. Anyone that defends that system is just out and out childish. I lived for the first year and a half as a Wookie without armor, "poor me" you all cried, "just re-roll idiot". Well I am sorry that you will no longer be able to do more damage than a Rocket Launcher or stand toe to toe with the most fearsome creatures in the galaxy with your bare knuckles, but guess what thats a dose of reality for you. Now take your own advice and REROLL, LEAVE, but most importantly SHUT UP.

i never did like wookiees....

" They're is no reason why I should be able to solo Fort Tuskan. "

Why not ?? In the storyline TK's were feared and respected by Jedi. Tuskan raiders are primative sand monkey tribesman. In episode 2 Anakin totally whipes out an entire Tuskan camp. SO it stands to reason a Master Teras Kasi would totally be unstopable against Tuskans.

Untill a Tuskan Which Doctor with 100% kin resists shows up lol.

Okay...
First of all, I disagree with this threads author inasmuch that he is taking a very simplistic point of view. Everyone who dislikes the CU isn't some teenager who will miss the "I win" button. Infact, I am finding that most of the so called "whining" posts, are intelligent, well thought out, bonafide concerns.

I have been a TKM/MTailor likely, longer than most of you have even been playing this game, but that's not relevent. I respect everyone's view equally, regardless of game tenure. I enjoy the role playing side of TKM and agree that TKM's shouldn't be armor wearers. It simply goes against the "mystique" that is supposed to surround the profession. I enjoyed being the fastest melee and the specials that only a TKM could earn.

With that said, on TC4, my TKM comes out as a level 56. I cannot respec any skills because those that aren't TKM pre-req's, are tied up in crafting. It is no great secret that no one will want a level 56 in their group. My Health is NOT 3k+ so I cannot sufficiently "tank". The speed of the profession along with most of the unique specials are gone. In a word, the template that I have enjoyed for almost 2 years, is now permanently non competetive. On live, I can't solo Krayts or NS Elders because I am not a DEF Stacker, but that was perfectly fine with me. I am/was a single combat elite and could still hold my own in any environmental PvE. Now, I cannot even kill a level 52 Gurk. It out-speeds me, hitting me 2-3 times as often as I hit it. My damage being determined by my LEVEL and NOT my skill is also counter-intuitive. Sorry, but I cannot "re-roll" for reasons I stated.

My conclusion is simple. Given all things considered, I do not like the CU because I cannot group because no one wants a Level 56, non tanking, low damage dealing TKM and I can no longer solo. Would anyone here continue to pay for a game that has so radically altered YOUR gaming experience? I am too old and too long vested in this game (20 months) to "re-grind" a new template just so people will want to group with me. At the same time, I shouldn't BE FORCED to abandon my long known Tailoring/BE clothing business, just so I can solo PvE. To the thread author, would you call THIS a "whine over not having an I win button"? The CU has destroyed my gaming experience that I have enjoyed for over 2 years, it's really just that simple and fundemental. All else is just window dressing and verbosity.

"In the storyline TK's were feared and respected by Jedi."

And what story would that be? I don't expect to hear a response to that question, since there are none.

Yeah, they have made stacking of combat professions required. In the new system you have to be a pure combat template to hunt, espically as a tank profession. Mix in some crafter or entertainer and you have less health, less attack accuracy, less attack speed, less defences, less special attacks and most importantly a lower combat level. I didn't mind that as a mixed entertainer/combat template that in the current system I wasn't as good as a pure combat template but I wasn't this badin comparason, I could do well and compete. Now if I wanted to be able to do both playstylesI'd need to start on a second server or get a second account ...
