Thread: Hybrid?
Hi there. I posted this on the jedi boards a while back cause some people were also wondering about the same thing. 
Ijust finished most of my TKM/Master Powers template... just need to get up to heal 4xxx. I can tell you that it is a lot of fun, choke+lighting is great. Couple that with your TK moves and you can do pretty good damage. In a group, you can play the support role (area intim/stun/lightning/kd) or you can tank with the usual TK CoB. But you will still have to rely mostly on your TK moves and use your powers as a secondary attack.
I also did this template for RP reasons, as I am part of a TK guild and just really like teras kasi a lot. If you have that mindset... to have fun and not to "win", I'm sure that you'll have a blast with this template.
Hope that helps, goodluck bud.
That's a long time to assume there won't be a patch "rebalancing" one or the other, forcing you to re-think your build. And, since you can't even begin to start MP until then, it's little more than a conversation piece until then.
Today TK does seem to be a good starter profession to hybrid with Jedi. The no-armor bonuses work nicely w/ Jedi, good defense, and in general good survivability. It's probably not-so-good against ranged BHs with root, etc., but that's a different problem.
Check this post out. It may help you decide.

i have a full temp msaber mdef enh0002 heal3000 250/250 jedi. i have always loved tkm. my alt tkm/mbrawler/mdoc who unlocked my jedi pre 9 is now fs. he will become th tkm hybrid. here is his future template.
tkm very close to master defender, has attacks, does not use force for those attacks, great inate armor
defender 0040 adds 500 to range and melee defs AURA,
enh 2002 for run1 and synergy
heal 4000 heals yay
powers 0400 for cloak and mindblast, could go 4000 for lightning , your choice
as you can see, there is alot of potential for a tkm hybrid. the key here is , you wont be usin any force for attacks, unless you go with lightning, for the ooo aaah effect.

Ive been working on the Force Sensitive unlock quests and was curious about a hybrid. Ive got the Rebel Themepark and 1 Warren Themepark left. Wondering if a TKM/Force Master would be a good hybrid?
As you know bro, I am currently running Master Powers TK
it is bad, very bad, if you dont believe me we can fight it out you can watch me fight defenders etc
I can fight out pretty much anyone but a defender
I fell in love with the template but I wouldnt say do it

Hi mate, no worries but I just need to clear a few things. Here's the key sentence from my post : "But you will still have to rely mostly on your TK moves and use your powers as a secondary attack."
If you keep to that, you'll see that you can manage your force quite well... specially now that powers got a 50% FC reduction. I never had channel while grinding jedi so I pretty much learned not to rely on channel to manage my force bar.
Oh and one more thing, I can tell you that I can definately fight for more than 5 mins.
