Defense Acuity is a 4th defense ability, totally seperate from Block, Counterattack, and Dodge.

Oh and it sucks worse then the others too.

atama has said it, if you want a good ability like that you should be a swordsmen and pick up their counterattack, seems to be the best, that or fencers dodge.

Nope, wont help whatsoever. Acuity does not stack with any other defense mods in any other way.

Defensive accuity only works when you are unarmed. Just like Block only works when you have a rifle or heavy sword equipped.


Dodge/Block/Counter Attack/Defensive Accuity are all totally seperate from each other and only work when you have weapons equipped for the profession that grants you that ability.

"ahhh i see....so tell me why do people get tkm with rifles, and not fencer wth rifles?"


First off, fencer has dodge while rifleman has block, so fencer won't help your evasion any more than TKA would. The only profession you can stack with rifleman is pikeman if you want to improve block.

Secondly, block isn't all that great. It only reduces damage by 50% instead of totally avoiding damage. Most riflemen would rather build up stats like ranged and melee defense, or state defenses if they want to stack defenses.

Finally, TKA gives you meditation, which has many unique benefits. You can get a small buff for free, get out of incap, and heal wounds/disease/poison/bleeds.
