Thread: I'm confused, please throw me a bone
I mastered Teras Kasi recently, as well as Creature Handling.
An hour ago I went to the Imperial Mission Terminal and requested a destroy mission. I have a hell of a time doing missions assigned with my vibroknuckler equipped, so I usually equip a CDEF pistol and pick up a destroy mission. However, when I went to get this mission I was only offered Deliveries while the pistol was equipped, forcing me to get a mission under the "unarmed" state.
The problem: it's impossible for me to do a destroy mission against rebels as a Teras Kasi Master, even with the help of a few pets.
Today's scenario: Destroy a small rebel base, guarded by 3 rebels. I send my pets out after one rebel, and engage another in combat. I attempt to knock him down, fail 3 times before finally delivering a successfull knockdown. I look at my HAM and fall under the impression that I've been attacked by a bloody nightsister elder because I suddenly have mere slivers of health in each bar. Even though I executed this maneuver without a weapon equipped my HAM diminished at a rapid pace.
I realized then that knockdown was nerfed and pissed my pants. After the 10 second knockdown duration effect wore off of the Rebel, he stood up and began sprinting away, all the while firing shots with his pistol over his shoulder. This was a joke, but I was not laughing. He peppered me with 85 damage shots for a while and of course I was incapacitated. I waited a few seconds before using my esteemed "Force of Will" skill, and was promptly shot in the back. My force of will was denied a second use, and I was slain by a Rebel that conned BLUE.
So, how does a Teras Kasi fight now? I can't solo a con-blue Rebel - I get kited. If the answer is "burstrun", I'll be able to kill a rebel every 10 minutes.
Please help, this is crazy frustrating.

I'm doing it at this time, real easy. Just need to evolve with patches, forget about spamming KD, just use it when really needed and without vibroknucklers.
With vk unequipped, I tried spamming unarmed hit 3 : it costs -33 (nothing) and hit for 800+ on those dark blue rebels. Easy.

You didn't reply to the entire sentence ![]()
Unarmed hit 3 is nice and all, but doesn't teleport me to my opponent. I can chase them all across the map, they'll continue to pepper me with blasts from the CDEFs.
I used to be able to knockdown a rebel, fight for a few seconds, then knock them down again. Now I hit once and they run. If there's more than one Rebel as soon as I begin chasing the second he starts to run - I never even have a chance to unarmedhit3.
woops sorry ![]()
I don't have this problem, weird ! Only one in a few tried to kite me but lunge did it.
aaah man thx for posting it in the update! I was playing with a few beers last night so didn't notice the extreeme penalty. I lost 2 stormtroopers now!
snik, and how to fight now
I'm getting forced to go crafting only is that what I payed for?
(tka soon 2 be master+soon architect master)
npc missions are still doable, though I would not say on advanced planets like Dantooine. I am hanging out in Theed, and decided to snag an imperial medic to fight with me.I cansolo (with pet)the level 25 missions near Theed fairly easily now with him helping out. It's decent faction.
To those without some form of pet, it will be a lot harder to do. The npc rebels usually con white / yellow to me (Captains, Commando's, etc.). Creatures unfortunately are not affected by the lunge / dizzy, so solo creature hunting got nerfed pretty hard. Still doable - I can solo single pulls and with my new faction pet it's even easier. But if I get multiple creatures and have to spend minimum 200 total ham to keep them down for 12 seconds, I'm going to get chewed.
