Thread: Meditate or Power Techniques?

I'm in a dilemma. Right now my TKA is 1 1 2 2. What I'm wondering is if I should continue to go up in equal (2 2 2 2, 3 3 3 3, etc.), go up meditate (4 1 2 x) or go up power techniques (1 1 4 x). The x meaning that it's combat xp based so i'll go up it as i get it.


Logically it seems like meditate would be a great branch to go all the way up first, since I can then heal my own wounds and reduce the amount of trips I have to make back to a healer. But then again, Power Techniques give me more strength and speed which means I can take out bigger things. To me Balance would be the last branch to go up, while it does offer some good skills.


What do you guys think?

Ill go to 2122 first thing for Power boast. Then go 2242 upgrading the last whenever you get the combat xp. Then work to 424?. finally just finsh it out.

I recommend doing the complete power tree before any of the others. Once you reach Power Tech 4 you will be doing so much damage the rest will come easily.

i did the following,


0/0/1/0


0/1/1/1


0/1/3/2 Im debating whether to go power 4 or take balance for the extra unarmed toughness. Might comi in handy


so it would follow as


0/2/3/2


0/2/4/


4/2/4/


4/4/4 (last tree as i get the xp).

0/0/4/0 First


2/1/4/2 should be next.. combat exp might not add up for you because i did master brawler.


3/2/4/3


4/4/4/4 Thats how i did my TKA



But get power tech first, then get some doc buffs and go kill pikets over and over 3200-5000exp

I went 0/1/1/x first for my dizzy+kd, and then went all the way up meditation since I solo most of the time and wound healing is great for that. If I had it to do over again, I'd go to 2/1/1/x for powerboost and then finish the power tree before anything else. Grinding out over 1 million unarmed xp with power 1 sucked, and now that I'm 4/1/3/x I'm finding that things are going much quicker.


Get powerboost for sure though.

since you can't decide just continue on the path of equality 2-2-2-2, 3-3-3-3 then 4-4-4-4

I took the traditional 1-1-1-1- 2-2-2-2 3-3-3-3 and 4-4-4-4... It worked great because i got the defence, med and dmg all at once... Balance is very good because the pikets hardly punish you when you get to 2 and 3


In my opinion you don't have to do your profession as fast as possible... Enjoy, TKA is great!

I took a different road, I guess.


Started 0/0/0/2 (after MBrawler).


Went straight to 2/0/0/3 for powerboost. It's just SO useful. I didn't bother with Dizzy/KD because I had Warcry2/UnarmedLunge2 and I wasn't fightning many NPCs anyway.


Then went 2/0/2/3 for a small boost in Power.


Then 4/0/2/3, for wound healing. At this point I don't think I returned to town until I had mastered TKA =p.


Then 4/0/4/4 for a little more power, then went straight up the balance tree.


The one thing I really dislike aboutleveling combat classesevenly is having 4 450k exp boxes left at the end. Makes it feel as if it takes an eternity to accomplish anything =p.
