Well...I know many of you saw the new changes in the tesy center to TKA what with all new increase in our mods and new skills like Center of Being and so forth.


Well I went to the DEV forum and saw where the devs have been really concerned about all the people with pets taking on high level mobs and advamcing to quickly up the skill tree just by "dabbling" in the first two trees og the CH profession. The second concern was that because of this...Multi-player envlovement was no longer encouraged and now (like myself) many of us TKMs still us pets to tank for US! That sounds rather backwards.


Well the devs are making some great changes and Thunderheart responded to one users comment of "Pets have taken over as tanks and no one needs meleers anymore" by saying "We have some cool changes comming for TKAs and meleers".


This is encouraging so I believe that with the new Changes to CH (these changes make it hard to have any good pets without MCH) and that coupled with the new mods and increases for us...TKA may finally be on its way to being what is supposed to be in this game!


Read the below links to see his comment and the changes to CH that will mean alot to us and fulfilling our role as tanks again.

I find most are doing MCH and MD...with TKM...I am doing MCH...I can take on most anything and have soloed MOBS like Nightsister Spellweavers and Force Crystal Hunters as well as Voritors and Pikets..ect ect.


I like CH for obvious reasons....but I have found myself in a fight when all of the sudden another MOB spawns outta nowhere only to attack me from behind while I am already in a Melee...well i just sick my Pets on the offender and he stops attacking me. Plus they help with Kiters who run like little punks in a fight. I mean what player can outrun a GSP or Merek,,,None!

yea, do you suggest master brawler w/ tka master or just straight up the line. I knw the feeling bud I can kill almost anything out there, but I swear I hate things that run and then turn on you(bolmas). Nightsisters are fun to kill so are rancors.


I love my pets, so I would think mch/tkm would be great w/ something else to use the other skill pts(maybe some med skills).

Also any suggestion as to where the best xp for earning the 125k of unarmed xp to novice tka would be? Would be awesome if you could give me your personal insight.

Devs plan to make TKAs as good as CH pets at tanking...


I forseethis new amazing Solo f.o.t.m. tank/cleric/skclass :


TKM tank w/ tk buffs + Doc 'D' Buffs,Stim-E heals & rez + Smuggler Feign-Death,ranged knockdown & panic... add high quality Composite 65-70% (80% kenetic)... top it off with a pet mount, at-st, orthe new upgraded Probot w/ a crate of batteries... and we have a Krayt Tank!oh my!


This new SOLO class will beSo muchbetterthan the old CH dabbler combos. Great Tanking plus Awesome self heals and buffs...


In their rush tocrush theCH mole hill, the Devs created a Monster.

As a TKM i can already tank krayt. granted i was insanely buffed and i had a commando helping out with dmg, but i am pretty confident htat i've could killed the krayt by myself chaining intimidate and UH3. It wouldn't be long until ppls cry nerf so maybe our future doens't look so bright..

You couldnt solo a krayt on your own. not without insane doc buffs and good armor... and theyll prolly nerf our damage if we get enough defenses to allow us to be real tanks (which likely we will never be)
