In RL we are kind of locked into what we are. In this game you can pickup, change, and become any class in the game with just a little bit of work.

So instead of screaming about whats fair and whats not fair...just pick up those things you think will make you win. If you were right...you will win more...if you aren't...try something else.

This game is totally fair...you have total control of what skills you select, your race, your stats etc. If you think KD/Dizzy is unfair then pick up the skill...now its fair...jeez that was simple.

If you have trouble with this concept then we are back to the original point I made about not being able to do stat migration in RL -- "dang...Mind is capped at 300...I'm toast. Guess I will come complain on the boards and hope someone will make my template uber so I don't have to try anything new."

And why am I stupid just for believing a gun is for cowards?

Look a gun is for cowards you all know it

I think a lot of people are not seeing the big picture here. nerfing kd/dizzy does nothing but injure teh TKA profession. I've heard that PMD2 doesn't work as it should. It's supposed to be another knockdown move. Carbine don't have a knockdown timer and buffs can keep a carbineer going for quite a bit with it. BH has a special that applies a dizzy as well.

Really the fact that everyone focuses on TKA is because they do not want to be bested by anyone who just uses their hands to fight. They believe that with a pistol, rifle, or carbine that you should always win whether you're up close or far away which makes very little sense in my opinion.

I would advise those of you who are hot about debilitating the TKA profession go and talk to correspondents of other combat professions. Find out what they're getting and compare all the info you gathered to the one profession you're trying to handicap. I assure you that you will see what benefits each class has against the other and what negatives go along with them. If you still can't see the positives and negatives of each profession and still come here to complain about TKA then you should resign to getting some other profession that is not combat related. You are not ready for close combat.

please quit making tkmlook bad atone. most of us on this forum enjoy being a tk, but it isn't our right to tell other people what is right or wrong. using a gun isn't cowardly, it's just how people want to play the game. remember, everyone pays 15 dollars a month to play this game however they desire. it is not your place or anyone else's to tell them they are in the wrong. sit back....take a deep breath....relax.

I don't see the problem. 9% vs KD is not a bad stat. As for kiting goes, why not go TK/CM. As the rifleman runds away start stacking mind poisons on the guy, then run the opposite way. The person will have no other choice than to try and run you down. With a good set of poisons he'll be dead before he get's close and if he does get close, well..you know what to do.

I guess I'm not too worried about this becuase the food they will be eating will be taking up "space" in their new "intelligent" stomach. And this means that the food they use to prevent knockdown will take the place of something that buffs their health to 3K, or something that gives them a 3k mind pool to play with. I think it's a good trade off, as long as the food keeps them from getting more buff from food.

Perhaps I'm being naieve about all of this though. Maybe there will be food that can "erase" the defense of others by giving up increased ability to KD? Would make some sense, no?

Anyway, I'm cluless, so don't listen to me,

Eh eh. Last night some guildies found a mabari weave helm that gave like 25% resist to blind and 22% resist to fire. eh eh Look out commando!

I'm glad to see you guys are starting to discuss the topic and not just argue pointless comments with Atone. Let him ramble, but keep to the topic.

I still think KD/Dizzy should be left alone.

Oh one more thing, for the people out there saying, if you don't like what they're doing to TKA then change your profession, that's really lame. If someone bought this game because they heard you can be a TKA, and then they start making it so TKA isn't fun *note* FOR THAT PERSON, why should that person have to change what he wanted to do on the game? doesn't seem right to me. We all pay the same amount of money for the most part. Why should people who wish to play TKA be forced to change their profession because someone else thinks KD/Dizzy is too powerful?

GL Debating! I guess we'll see what happens after the next publish hits.

No one will everknow that though because all the "brave" people will be dead. And us cowards will tell the tale of those who just let us shoot them.

History is not written by the conquered, enslaved, and the dead.
