Hi,
I am almost finish with the quest, and I will soon get the knuckle.
How is the knuckle? Anyone here that have tried it?
Right now, I am using my hands when fighting, not even a good/uber "blaster fist" is better than bare hands.
Can anyone explain this to me?
Why is bare hands better?
Is the "Knuckles of the Katarn" any good?

Nobody knows?
Well, with my blaster fist at 240 estimated damage (not modified) I do less damage than bare hands.
This is the best knuckler on my server (Bria) - I don't understand....
Anyone?

Knucklers of the Katarn still seems pretty useless. Pick up some other melee weapon that you can use unskilled with a decent DPSand it is better than allthe TK weapons....

Just got my new "uber" knuckler...
I tried some PvP, the numbers are not 100% accurate.
Unarmed (bare hands) = 180 damage
With the Katarn knuckle = 194 damage
(don't look at the low number, but the difference)
REALLY!
Is this right?

AGREED ! Ok this is my first post EVER, but I am not going to HARP on about the amount of balancing ISSUES .... However .......
I only play 2/3 times per week and re CU was enjoying the game working towards TKM looking
forward to kicking some butt ! AAAAAAAAAAARRRRRRGGGGGGGHHHHHHH !
I AM SO WIMPY NOW !
I can understand they wanted to make the game more "REAL" with HAM balancing and levels and it was UNREALISTIC that 1 guy could take on 5 Rancors and win.... FAIR ENOUGH !
BUT you wanna make it REAL .......
If someone who BOXES puts METAL on the end of their hands THEY DO MORE DAMAGE !
?????????????????????????? YES, MAYBE ????????????
It's not as if TKM does mass damage anyway but at least get the basic CONCEPT right !
I hit Avg. 400 Damage with my BEST MOVE
I put ANYTHING ON MY FISTS and it drops by at least 25 - 30%
??????????????????????????????????
Don't even get me started that they are fixing bugs for everything else and haven't even sorted one of the TKM MOVES. COMBO ????? COMBO ????? HA ! 123 Damage !
C'mon, don't completely revamp the TKM then leave a bug like that in there !

TKM is the ultimate tank in this game - fine.
I dueled a Master BH/DOC - and I was unable to kill him, we fought for about 30 min - I could NOT damage him enough, he just healed all the damage I did with NO PROBLEM all the time. I am glad he did not attack back... He was my punching bag...
Try yourself - you can't kill a Master XX/DOC as a TKM cause you can't do enough damage!

Well, the Advance Combo attack does work (DPS is about 500-600) the reason you don't see it, because of the display bug with combat tab.
Where as the NEW weapons are not rebalanced yet for display combat....so its best for now to stick with unarmed fighting until the fix is in.

The top two issues imho:
- We need to do (a little) more damage, like +20%
- Better and faster animations (high attack speed).
- We need to do (a little) more damage, like +20%
- Better and faster animations (high attack speed).

The knucklers do slightly more damage than unarmed, but I'm still not seeing the advertised cold damage in the detailed combat spam. It's all kinetic. And is it just my imagination, or am I faster without them? If that's true, the extra damage might not be worth the speed reduction.

I have not tested 100% yet, but it seems that my bare hand are slightly faster than the Katarn knuckler.
This is not right, really!
The knuckler has about 5xx+ modified damage!
