Thread: Defenses, ripped off?
I personally feel ripped off as a tkm when I view rifleman (sniper) having a block of 80 (close range defense) and about 55 ranged and 45 or so melee defense.... I mean come on thats 10 off of a master tka (melee prof) and they get this as snipers? I know we have the non working defense acuity... but heck if the snipers get this much close up defense, give tka a little more than 60ranged/55melee. I know its good as is but if i have to get to 6m then i want to fair better than a rifleman does, thats for sure! sorry if this seems like a troll but thats a fact. We should be substantially better up close than a sniper. Many other ranged profs nearly equal our defenses as well. go check that for yourself.
again DO NOT NERF, I hate nerfing, just make us better than ranged profs in melee combat. Our accuracy outdoes everything but still, i think we deserve more defenses fighting at 6m or less..... or fix our defense acuity! i notice NO difference.
I gotta agree with this one, the pistoleer defence mods are 2-3x better than the TK ones. Ranged should NEVER have better defenses than melee!!!!!!!!![]()

The 2.5x modifier is being removed. We're getting instead a ranged to-hit bonus.
We rarely miss, actually I haven't noticed missing anything in the last 100 fights, guessing I most likely did miss sometime but not like it mattered.
Great, lowering our damage against ranged and givingus theabilitythat we really don't need, to hit, for less damage.

Yea i dont agree with that statement...tka gets the unarmed toughness with higher ranged/melee D and pistoleers get like 12 ranged defensewhich is awful cause pistoleers do most of their fighting from ranged anyway
