Hi,


I'm a new TKA novice (yesterday) and today I picked up Balance I entirely for KD because I mostly solo for xp. However after some experimentation I haven't really been able to use it effectively. I'm wondering if someone could explain how KD really works and what I should know so that I could use it better in a fight. Right now I'll KD, Intimidate, KD, UnarmedHit2.. or some similar combo but I have better results with just auto fighting, throwing debuffs and the occasional unarmedhit2. I know I must be doing something wrong because everyone loves knockdown. I am using VKS (1.6 30-133) and unequip them before using kd.


Thanks for any help.

Knockdown is pretty much useless now. It hardly ever lands successfully, and once it does, the target is immune to further posture changes for 30 seconds.

Well, that makes me wish I had started with the Power tree, which I am going to start now. I have been still messing around with KD and I can get it to land consistently on intermediate mobs if I first have atleast two debuffs going.. three debuffs is almost a guaranteed land for kd but it's actual value is neglible. I am giving a good amount of damage when using this combo but as you can imagine landing all of these is heavy on the ham, so it's a little dangerous for me right now. Hopefully things will improve. I'm trying to get my xp "clean" without pets or even buffs ( thoughI will buffifI knowI'm getting in over my head)if possible so I get into some hairy situations. I can't wait to see the improvement from training the power tree.
