I dont know how many others there are that do this, but you can be EXTREMELY evil in PvP by being TKM/smuggler/pistoleer. Reason being that people get stupid when they see the TK tag above your head. They get more hot and bothered than Michael Jackson looking ata Boy's Life magazine. After all, TK's are the worthless tanks right now because we kill ourselves before we catch anybody in PvP right?

Wrong. Have I ever mentioned that low blow is a beautiful thing? Nothing quite like nutting some stupid carbineer that thinks that action bleeders make them uber vs tanks. As they lay on the ground with me charging them, I often wonder if they saw it coming....

Using low-blow (dirty fighting 3) or panic fire (dirty fighting 2) to screw em over long enough to allow your TK brilliance to shine is a wonderful thing. After all, nothing is more humiliating to a Master Pistoleer than having your butt handed to you by the worst tank in the game.

It's a simple equation:

+2-3 low blows - just enough to close the distance

+1-2 kd2 (balance 4) - makes sure they stay down and puts a good dizzy on em

+4-5 unarmeddizzy1 - oh, they're not getting up now (only 24 ham cost per hit... very worth it)

+10-15 seconds of beating with VK's onwhile your HAM goes back above half way.

+take off VK's and UH3 em to finish them off (looks good for the chicks... hehe).

Needless to say this doesnt work against a group but the principal's the same. I'm wondering how many other people have been able to make this work like I have.

nice to see other TKA's finding new ways to win in PVP

i use my master medic title and pets to lure them in....they think i am coming in to heal the pets but by the tim i get the first KD in they are mine....LOL


as i spit on their corpse i like to inform themi am a TKA as well heheheheh

I usually have explorer as my title or no title at all. And i carry a scout blaster sometimes or nothing at all. i'm very polite and don't DB them, but i'd say i won the last6 outta 6 duels i did (i just started dueling) Most people i duel are just people randomly asking for people to duel around them, that they are.

Suppresion fire works great. It makes them kneel givng you time to close the gap and apply the tka whooping.

Hehe...

Its actually pretty easy to close the distance on people in the midst of a big raid...

I literally took out six (DB'd and everything) imperials by the cantina in Anchorhead last weekend. Wearing my Master Scout tag. Since everyones just hitting tab for the most part, just stand behind or to the side of em and it'll take a while for them to target you outta the crowd. Some people caught on, tried to kite me, but lunge/dizzy worked fine...got em on the ground for a proper KD, and by that time it was all over.

Actually got the biggest compliment of my game there, cause after i got killed (working on my 7th) I finally got incapped, and the guy who did it actually took the time to type "ack..Killed him...Finally", Course since it was still the middle of the raid, he got killed right after he said that by the hundred or so rebels standing around him..lol....but near as i can tell, they werent shooting at the guys i was killing for some reason.

Having a different tag doesn't matter much now. I assume anyone wearing VKs is TK. But then again, i guess not everyone knows about the VK certification, so i'll just kill myself now.

You have been incapacitated by you.

......aww. i can't deathblow myself, can i?

You and I need to scruffle, villa. Heh. I usually use no title at all, but i might try some of my pistol titles for flavor. this type of attack is getting pretty common. but once you define your strengths you have to point out and overcome your weaknesses. a scout blaster will remedy ham costs from pistol skills, and your main worry, like anybody else, is getting kded or having your mind blown away. eye shot, head shot, and the swordsman head hit can be pretty damaging unless you find a good helmet to strap to your head, which i'm looking for now. I'm not sure but I hear they are actually going to make kd defense do something in the next patch. If that's true, a tka/pistoleer will have 50 kd/pc defense and be fairly hard to knock down. However, I'm currently a master brawler and If I'm tempted, I might drop it for....

Wow. Interesting.. ok guys check this out. I just used a character building prog do a little calculation. You can get Master Pistoleer, Master TKA, ranged specialist, all of the fencer's footwork line which gives you 40 kd/pc defense among others, and level 3 on the smuggler's pistol abilities line, which will give you the ever popular low blow and panic shot attacks. fencer will give you a whopping total of 90 defense vs kd and posture change. If they make that defense mean something, I'm getting it. Warcry2 and intimidate2 and my extra unarmed toughness are nice things to have, but I'm kinda liking what I've just discovered. What do you guys think?
