Maybe you guys will take a hint. I've been TKM longer than most people and I feel we're overpowering in some aspects compared to some other classes. I love hearing the moronic new TKAs whining about us needed defense vs random_crap, while the other melee professions don't have such luxuries as Meditate, and Powerboost, etc.
Whats maybe we will take the hint mean? What hint was given? So your saying I should stop being a TKA altogether because someone hates my proffesion?
Heh really? Something like this just started on Kauri too.

The way SOE works, they make one class that is the melee class, and they base all other classes with reference to this class.So in effect, TKA's are going to always seem overpowered and always be balanced first. Everyone needs to understand this. In Everquest, it was the warrior. Although this class never really worked correctly, it was the class that all other melee classes were based off of. Everyone knows we're still beta testers and is getting a little frustrated, but ya gotta try to be patient. TKA's are meant to be the class for tanking. There is only one and that is the TKA. That's the way that SOE works so if people don't like it they're either gonna have to get over it or leave the game, because the way they think is not going to mold for you. It's sad but it's the truth. I knew from the start having played EQ that the monk like character was going to be it as there was not really any other class that had the defense that they have, and is why I am one now and having a blast. Everyone wants to be "it" at melee but that word is subjective. If you use a sword you're going to be high damage with large single strikes. You just have to understand the mechanics of fighting to understand why TKA's are and always will be the melee tank.

I really don't think we're overpowered, we're just the Bounty Hunters of melee, aside from Jedi of course. And, melee should do the absolute most damage.
That's a better way of saying it. I wasn't clear when I said we're overpowered. Just that, it looks bad when so many people want all sorts of things added to TKA, when none of the other melee classes have unique abilities like Meditate and Force of Will and Powerboost. The other classes need to be fixed and balanced with us, not necessarily a TKA nerf.

Well, yeah, when you put it that way its a whole different story. I do feel that the other melees could use something special like the meditation line.
