I'm still debating on what move is better, either UnarmedHit3 or UnarmedCombo2, and was wondering what the TK populous prefers? I've used UC2 for the longest time, but I'm beginning to think different......
Thank you,

Unarmed Hit 3 is better the way that a machine gun is better in combat than a frying pan.
Unarmed Combo 2 sucks more than UAH3 in every way. HAM cost isn't much better, it does less damage, it's actually slower (4x delay compared to 3x delay) and while UAH3 has a chance to hit one pool a bit more than others UAC2 is guaranteed to spread its damage across all pools, so even if it did the same damage it would take more time to take something down.
In fact, Unarmed Hit 2 is better than Unarmed Combo 2. UAH2 does the exact same damage except not spread across all pools, but it's almost twice as fast, and costs less HAM, and you get it at TKA novice!
Unarmed Combo 2 is without a doubt the most useless move a TKA has. UAC1 is ok only because it has a tendency to hit the Health pool more than other pools.

Usually when i have something down to 5% health, 90% action and 90% mind, i can't hit health again for 5 hits or so

Well i'll have to agree with everyone that the most useful all-round move is UnarmedHit3. Spam it to get that enemy health down as quickly as possible.
The best-looking move, IMO, is UnarmedCombo2. I throw one of them in now and then when showing off.
The most disappointing one is UnarmedHeadhit. This is a very useful attack in PvP, but looks so lame. In my opinion they should have made it similar to the spinning back fist, such as is used in Thai Boxing.

unarmedcombo2 is only good for getting rid of damage reduction food as it hits 3 times
doe damage go unarmedcombo1 (highest DPS on health) or unarmedheadhit
unarmedheadhit2 simply does not exist
UH3 is mainly good to blind as it sticks a blind faster than unarmed blind

ps: all I said is from pvp pov

It really depends what your doing at the time. PvE then UH3 all the way. PvP I use almost all of them for different reasons depending on situations. however KD2 always is in there at one point or another in both PvE and PvP.

UH3 is in general a better attack due to pure damage. It's a Jedi Force Drainer for sure.
However...
Too many newbs think that it is the end-all attack. Combo2 does have its uses. The best use for Combo2 is quickly eating up synthsteak, as it counts as 3 hits. It also serves as an effective clean-up attack. (and as a master btw the delay on the attack is pretty much meaningless, so don't worry about that)
Beyond that it doesn't do us much good, especially as we have headhit to gank the oh-so-important mind pool on any non-jedi.
So my overall vote is UH3... just know when Combo2 might be appropriate.

Unarmed hit 3 rocks -
but the coolest looking move for me is Health hit - - That knee to the ribs just makes my day!! Any Muay Thai folks out there know what i am talking about
KNEES ALL THE WAY - - we need a strike that throws a bunch o elbows and knees all over the place

Well, I like UAH3, it's really nice. UAheadhit1 is also a nice one. And when I dont care Spinattack2 is just fun.
