Hey guys! I was trying to think of what other proof I'd like to mix in with my TKM, but I really don't want to drop Master Brawler as i love lunge 2 and intimidate 2. Anyody had this combo and dropped it? I was wondering if KD 2 could replace my treasured lunge 2?
Thanks in advance

for PvP, intimidate2 is a very useful tool. Lunge2 outweighs KD2 depending on what you're trying to achieve. Not only is it a 20m range, but I also hear it's not a KD but a posture change (down). And there are very few people who have defense vs that.
I'd say keep master brawler for the hell of it, it can be quite useful. Though technically, if you don't use the other professions, you could spend 48 skillpoints somewhere else to make yuor defenses more powerful

Lunge2 is a knockdown. Lunge1 is a posture change.
I don't use dizzy so I like my lunge 2 instead of KD2. The dizzy effect of KD2 has no usefulness to me.

For me KD2 is a big no-no 100% of the time, its either lunge 2 if they are kiting or KD1 ifthey are close, this is because with KD2 the dizzy will not always stick so its not worth the risk

Nothing entirely replaces L2. I hated giving it up. But, I've done well without it ala L1 and KD2 (make a macro), and enjoyed mastering other skills.

Why not just do dizzy a few times before trying KD? I use dizzy1 and then KD2 if I am close enough to deliver them. If not, I do do lunge1 (not a master brawler so I wouldn't know about lunge2) and while they are trying to stand I mash dizzy1 in hopes of getting it in before they do. I have noticed that lunge1 with dizzy is almost more effective since they have a chance to fall on their own from the posture change while dizzy.
I dunno... just my thoughts. Just because KD2 has a dizzy on it doesn't mean you can't use dizzy1 anyway just as insurance.
