Look TKA is not as self dependant as people say


yes we can buff ourselves but its only a 5-10 minute buff Doc buffs are much better



so go cry nerf somewhere else and leave TKA's alone

I was going to apologize to you, for upon looking at your post you did not call me a name, someone else did, but after your next post, I will give no apology. I have had plenty of women amuse me with their stupid notions and worthless prizes, dear. Since you called me Tomepoo I can bear a few weeks dating you before I dump you, if you would like.

Meditate isn't worth a damn. You could give it to every damn class in the game and it wouldn't make a single difference. Each class has it's own unique ability and meditate happens to be the TKA's.


Powerboostis good for a quick boost but I would not go PVP with just that and know buffs. Come now people think about it for a second. Go out and become a TKM and do Powerboost then go PvP against buffed players, hell even unbuffed players and see how long you last. Give it a break. Many people are TKA and Rifleman because combat wise they are the two least broken professions. I do recall around August-October that everyone was a damn Master Pistoleer with BH Pistols and Smugler pistols. Also around that time everyone was a 3/3/0/0 CH. TKA and Rifleman just happen to be the current FOTM, in a few weeks it will be something else and then everyone will jump on the band wagon to nerf that profession. You nerfheaders will never be happy.

Yah your right, every class has unique abilities, like swordsman has the spin attacks, and headhits, both of which have a DPS less than TKM spin attack2 dps and headhit/combo2 DPS. This makes the Swordsman class a mere novelty, wholly useless. 80% resists to Blast as well(today I saw 88% for 600k a piece), make the stupid kinetic whine of TKM completely inaccurate.

It doesn't matter anymore because people will cry nerf no matter what. Whatever the next FOTM is going to be within a week people will be carrying their sticks on another witch hunt.

LOL, I rattle your cage a bit, and thats the best you can do? Spew forth more BS? Ok Tomeypoo, since this about the closest you'll ever come to getting attention from a woman, here we go.

"Women are fond of calling men names, believing that such insults are sufficient to disprove the testimony of truth, which such men profess."


In my opinion, the only "truth" being spoken by anyone on these boards, is coming from the Dev Team. They make the game, they decide what happens in it. You aren't a part of Dev Team, and such what you say is opinion. You aren't privy to the inner workings of the development process, nor do yousit in on Design meetings.The forums aren't a court of law, or preacher's pulpit. You want to go "testify"about something- go to the Peoples Court, or talk to Billy Graham.


You're not a man, you're a child. And what you misconstrued as me calling you names, was in fact, an adult admonishing achild.


"Typical, and pathetic"


Yes, you are indeed pathetic. See now that time, I'm definitely calling you a name. Since you seem to havedifficulty discerning when people are insulting you, I'll be sure to clearly state when I'm doing so. Read on.


"meet me point for point or stop with the stupid name calling it is childish, insipid ultimately vulgar"


As soon as you stop spewing childish, insipid, and ultimatelyvulgar BS, I'll be happy to discuss with you your thoughts on the TKA profession. Next!


"I am growing tired of the entire notion of what is 'cool'. Analyzing the notion, one comes to find that 'cool' means conformity, and they call themselves rebels. lmao"


Uhh ok... I'm not really sure where this one came from, but I'm willing to take a look-see. First of all "coolness" is an abstract concept,that defies analysis. What is cool to some, may not be cool to others."Coolness" is in the eye of the beholder, as it were. Reading your posts Tomeypoo, I see the exactopposite of "cool". I see"Anti-Cool" or simply "Uncool" -take your pick. Oh look! Another insult!


The fact that you "anaylized the notion of what is cool" means just 1 thing - You are full of it.


Here's the problem with that statment in it's entirety. You've become so enamored with, and de-sensitized to your on BS, thatyou've stopped making sense to the normal people around you. You're so wrapped up in your "testimony of truth" you've completely lost touch with reality. Flowery verbiage do not make up for a lack ofplain ole' common sense.


"so get off your focking high horse you worthless trash"


What can I say? Even your insults are lame.You need help from a professional Tomeypoo. Someone get's your goat, and you start foaming at the mouth. Deep breaths Tomey, deep breaths. Take my advice, leave and leave quickly. You keep verbally sparring with me, and you're gonna end up on the Six O'Clock news as the guy with the gun in the bell tower.


Obviously this game has done you a lot of harm. The game as well as a lifetime of anti-social behavior and rejection from women. LOL stop playing SWG, change out of those wife-beaters and stained tidy-whities, and get yourself some lovin'. You need it.

...

whenever one person is defeated in battle they will never look to themselves for the fault but to others...


basically people, after they spawn in teh clone center, dont tend to say to themselves "**edit** i sucked, damn i shoulda done THIS instead"...

they tend to go with either:

a) That exploitin son of a **edit** ill kill im *insert several profanities*

b) Stupid fotm class, **edit**in overpowered NERF NERF NERF

c) **edit** this i quit


this will never change, and i severly doubt no amtter what arguments are put forward that we will eb able to change the opinions of these people (most are too stubborn, an dont like to admit they messed up a lil).

though taht wont stop me from arguin with em.


an t (cant rememebr rest of eyr anme now sorry, ug so late)

maybe they got kinda offended because your "opinion" could be seen as a sexist attack against them (when i first read it i said in my mind "shouvanist pig")


but meh, to late, to tired, argue tomorrow

First, to the retard who thinks TKAs stop bleeds and such from medic, you must not have the meditate tree.


Second, to the guy who wants to know why TKAs shouldn't be in the game, gee, I dunno, maybe because they have no appearance or role in the Star Wars movies and no logical place on a battlefield?


Finally, this thread was about balance. There is more to balance than PvP, and those of you who are literate would have noticed my post was about PvE. In PvE, TKA is simply not balanced.

TKA has its place in the game you know it and I know it



and secondly just because it doesn't appear in any of the movies it shouldn't be in the game? Thats stupid



TKA is mentioned in a bunch of Star Wars books



Shadows of the Empire, Agents of Chaos 2 Darth Maul: Shadow Hunter and possibly some others



and if they were to take this profession out of the game I would cancell my account cause that would just make the game utterly boring and I'm sure others would follow



so go cry on your professions board and leave our profession alone!!!

I don't givea rip about PvP since it's pointless. But even PvE is slanted to the TKA. You don't even have to chase MOBs because the game will make the characters drop their blasters and go brawlerif you don't shoot at them (I did unarmedto get smuggler, I know). IfTKA is so balanced please explain why:

1) TKA can target any HAM pool they want while a master pistoleer (MP) can only hit health?

2) TKA can dizzy, KD, blind, stun, and intimidate while a MP can only KD (and then only at point-blank range)?

3) TKA can beat the crap out of a Tusken Warlord in 4 seconds flat unbuffed, while an unbuffedMP will simply die?

4)

Ummm.... Blind, Stun, and Intimdate are Brawler moves, available to anyone with the Brawler Profession for a modest amount of skill points. Most other brawling professions have similar moves at the Brawler level, usually before Master.

I am a MP and Smuggler and I can whip up on the Tusken Warlord too unbuffed without much problem. What are you doing wrong not to be able to do it. Repeat this with me... It's called go prone, Chest Shot, Chest Shot, Chest Shot, Low Blow, Panic Shot, Chest Shot, Chest Shot, Chest Shot, Pistol Whip, Panic Shot, Chest Shot until dead. I might, and I stress MIGHT have to use a stim b during this, but not usually.

Why can a Pikeman have an area knockdown that hte other classes don't have...

Why Could Bounty Hunters knock you down and set you on fire at the same time....

Why can riflemen 2 hit your mind pool and kill you?

Why did I go to the Ewok Caves with a Commando and watch him torch 15 of them in the time it took me to catch up with one?

Why? Because that's what their classes do. Deal with it. Either you want to play it or you don't. The meditation line is available to every player in the game for I believe 35 skill points. If it's that great, go get it and then come back and tell us all how you now can solo Krayts with the default attack.
