Heya guys!
I'm just returning to SWG after a break of over a year. I'm trying to get the hang of the combat upgrade! I'm playing a Trandoshan Master DOC/Master TKA. A couple of questions:
1. Why do I do almost double the amount of damage when I'm not using any weapon as opposed to when I use my VK?
2. I'm going out of my mind! My mind is draining like crazy! Simply setting the basic melee hit to auto attck & doing nothing else drains my mind! As soon as I start healing of using specials it's gone in no time! This is while using the Doc mind buff and Vegnerian Canape! The weird thing is that a friend of mine playing Master TK/ Master Swordsman can spam specials all day and his mind stays full!
3. Combo attack: I've heard that the damage being reported is wrong? It doesn't seem to do mucj damage at all if you believe the numbers!
Thanks for your help!

VK is a low level weapon now and does little damage. As soon as you use no weapon the "Unarmed Damage"-mod kicks in and you do more damage. You will only do more damage (as TKM) with Katarn Knuckler or Nightblade.

SAC = Special Attack Cost
It uses action and mind. Your fists have a huge SAC (for some reason).
3. Combo attack: I've heard that the damage being reported is wrong? It doesn't seem to do mucj damage at all if you believe the numbers!
It is shown damage x3
Thanks for your help!

I have the same build as you do, and pretty much the same problems. As for your VK it's prolly maxxed out on damage around 290ish, and with TKM you can do more via the unarmed damage bonuses. As for your mind, get a weapon with a SAC pup and stay away from Bacta shot when healing. And spiced tea seems to help a little.

You need to usekatarn knucklers, only thing worth while now.
