4. as it stands we are the only profession with a single damage type I would like to see others (remember this is a give/take situation. If we get more damage types our damage may not stack with the VK's anylonger)

I dont think this is a good idea. The fact of the matter is were an unarmed profession. Instead of having another damage type we should have a better chance to cast our debuffs (dizzy, intimidate, blind, knockdown etc.) Try punching a hunk of metal and tell me what happens to your hand. However, tell me how easily that hunk of metal falls... In my opinion armour should be classified into 3 types. Light, medium, and heavy. I know they already are, but for player armour it should provide a higher chance to be knocked down or something. If youre wearing a 50 kilo suit of composite armour then you sure as heck are going to be easier to knock down

My choices for a top 5 are this:

1.) FoW. I think everyone agrees that the timer is just too high. 30 minutes would be much more reasonable.

2.) CoB. TKA should have some type of defensive bonuses that come from doing this. I mean, if were meditating
it would stand to reason we could centre ourselves better.

3.) Debuff mods. As a result of having only one damage type, (soon to be two) we should recieve a bonus to cast debuffs. Were a TKA, a profession that has studied the humanoid body, we know the weaknesses and therefor know where to hit someone to cause the most pain.

4.) Meditation. I dont know if any of you consider this a problem, but we know that having debuffs can prevent you from meditating. Personally I dont see how being blind or intimidated prevents me from kneeling down and concentrating. Perhaps only certain debuffs ie. dizzy, prevents you from meditating.

5.) TKA content. Every profession out there would like to have their own content and TKA is no different. Some specific mission types would be nice. TKA are meant to be watchers of the Jedi. Perhaps mission types to hunt down watered down versions of NPC Jedi rogues would be cool. (Dont want to step on the BH toes with player Jedi missions).

The only original thing you said, I actually believe to be a good idea...make TKM's bare hands and AP1 weapon. I don't know if the programming will allow for that, but I think it's certainly a good start.


With our luck, justwatch - the code'll get bugged and we'll have dancers running around with AP1...laying waste to entire cantinas...and the helpless bystanders just wanted their BF healed.....


hehe

um defense acuity works fine




Actually, according to TH's answer it does not work fine. It works as it was originally designed, but has become outdated and thus needs fixed.

No longer holding out hope, SWG will never be the game we fought so hard for, that we believed so much in. Farewell friends.

not always but i see a good appearance of dodge block and counterattack all the time when cobed
it might have somethign to do with having some skill in a dodge weapon a block weapon and counterattack weapon
