NAH you guys keep missing the best move. We need the warping move, when we're almost dead we instantly warp 300 meters away. Best thing about this move is its already in game

I like the whole aspect of the meditative line of tkm with the ability to heal wounds and states, the powerboost, and the force of will, but i think they could seriously work on a little more with this line in the combat revabalagrade. Most of my issues with the revabalagrade deal with smuggler, but i'd like to see a little more with the abilities of the mind. I'd like to see some specials which could deal with the focusing of the mind to do outrageous feats. Instead of having a state that would slow down time or whatnot, why not have one where you get into a meditative stance, focus your mind to increase the dmg you can do, kind of like a PUP, it will add like a 5% min/max dmg to your attack per meditative lvl, ie when you get it at meditative techniques 1, you get a 5% bonus, 10 at 2 and so on...
another special move i'd like to see would be kind of like what Jet Li did in Lethal Weapon 4 to Mel Gibson's gun. Give us a special where we can target our dmg to a weapon, and reduce it's condition by a factor of x*dmg output, where at master you can hit a weapon for a max of 50 dmg, and add a kd timer to it, so we can only hit a weapon every 30 or so seconds in a fight. If not that, i'd also like to see a special that could disable a weapon for like 20 seconds. This way, if a person is really trying to take down a tkm, he can switch weapons. Doesn't sound like too much, but it could seriously neutralize the dot whores in game, or even jedi.

Because they rock and flip out and kill stuff.
p.s.- Nerf people who say "QFE" until I figure out what it means.
Death Touch- D.O.T. attack
Vibrating Palm -penetrates body armor
Leap Attack! ...that's right, leaping flying attacks for damage multipliers that have a knockdown effect-you got it.
Double Strike -strikes with both hands
Energy disruption-"ki" based attack, variable effects.
Joint Lock-immobilizes attacker and halts all following attacks (you might ask, if that's true, why use anything else? Why indeed.)
A discussion is in order

I just learned it a few weeks ago "Quoted For Emphasis."and ninjas do rock, get pumped up, flip out and kill stuff... they're so awesome.
I heard one time this guy sneezed and no one said "bless you." so a ninja killed the whole town.

it's not staged.. it's real.. they ally themselves with supernatural beings to do it.. i've seen it first hand, as well as expirienced it first hand... what Merc93 was saying about the martial artis'are true.. i've acctually heard about them doing things that most western civilization countries would never believe possible...

I heard that all the scenes in Crouching Tiger and in Hero were not really special effects but were really the actors doing stuff like that. I have this cousin who has a friendwho knowsthis guy he works with that has a roommate whose brother went over to japan and got some undergrind videos proving it so it has to be true.

TKM would be entirely too over-powered with even half of the changes you've proposed.
as much as TKM like to think they are the #1 melee profession, and are far superior to everyone else, we MUST remember that our skill point requirements are exactly the same as Master Swordsman, Master Fencer, and Master Pikeman; and therefore we should be just as powerful as the other elite brawler professions. we should be better at doing certain things, but others should be better at other things.
TKM fight with fists, therefore, an alternative damage type or armor piercing should NOT be given to us. even with some ultra sharp knuckle weapon, a person cannot punch through armor grade steel. it just cannot be done.
and the DOT attack idea would severly overpower us. without using looted weapons, the only non-Bleed dot that any character can use are poisons and diseases from Combat Medics. Combat Medics should have this ability to use DOTs since they are a cross between battlefield medics and chemical weapon specialists.
but, if any of these changes would be put into affect, the devs MUST also give all of the other combat professions just as many improvements that would be comparable to the suggested TKM changes.
the only way that TKM should EVER be superior in all ways would be if our skill point requirements were GREATLY increased, making it not possible to master another elite profession.
