I just read where someone posted the HAM cost for TKA is bugged, lets hope that's right. Assuming they bring it down.....

Here is my opinion on how to make TKA a more do-able profession which I thinkcenters around mobs and PVP battles where the opponet simply runs out of range. Sure lunge helps but not enoughfrom my experience.Scouts have some nifty mods that help them get over rough terrain faster and that also includes a burst run efficiency modifier. Perhaps some variation on this theme is what's needed whether its another type of burst run or maybe the ability to use it more often...etc. Heck, in the kung fu movies the similarly skilled martial artists can actually leap through the air so far and high they're practically able to fly. Now there's an idea. They could even throw in a backfilp in the middle of the long leap, just like in the movies.

Perhaps even a skill that will allow a TKA artist to pick a landing point if they choose to jump into the center of a mob or just let the default be whoever is targeted and jump within 3m of that player or PVE. I kinda got tired of chasing pve's around and PVP is even worse. I think this would be a blast. Of course they'd have to limit it in some fashion but allow it enough to be effective in long battles.

Or if that's too extravagant, just add some sort of burst run effect.

Personally I kinda like the idea of a TKA artist leaping down from a mountainside right into the middle of my camp as both a sneak attack and to allow TKA to participate more readily in the pvp environment.

I'll still be a master in unarmed formy commando character(another gimped class)so if something like this ever comes into fruition, I may have to come back to TKA. I guess I felt like one gimped class was all I could allow my character to have so I decided to stick with commando with an option to come back towards TKA someday.

Anyway, good luck to you guys. I know my idea may sound corny but ya gotta admit its hardly a stretch from what we see in the movies and that's what thsi game is based on. There might even be a scene in star wars where some is leaping a great distance, wouldn't suprise me at all although I can't think of one at the moment.

One last thought, if they were to actually use this idea(I know they won't) I think it would be an nice graphic, plus add a little bit of balance to have the screen view tumble*sky over ground)as the TKA artist does a leaping flip through the air of say,35 meters max and at a speed much faster than burst run.
