I am a dueler on my server while most of the time I prefer unbuffed , unarmored duels once in a while someone will only duel me
if they have both .. and I like to think I have nice vk (267 max damage after powerup) and I absolutly cannot cut through the 80% kentic armorfast enough for the 2ndary buffs to regen them!Especially if im ntimidated , im forced to switch to dot weapons which alot of people consider unfair in duels.. anyone have feedback regarding this?

Get buffed, drink brandy and eat muon.. dizzy lunge and attack the head over and over as they flop like a fish.. with your vk's damage that high you would waste thier mind in a few seconds no matter how much they are buffed

80% Resist in Armor
another 50% if intimidated
50% from toughness if fighting a TKA
45% from Synthsteak
and defense mods such asdodge counter attack melee defense etc? Ouch

Yeah, recently in Coronet while I was waiting at the starport, I saw an Overt Rebel with the TKM tag up. I figured I'd challenge him to a friendly duel, no DB, we both had buffs, I had 80% kin comp armor, he had a full set of comp armor, didn't know the stats on it, I had two shots of brandy, not sure how much he had, could have been one, two, or muon. Anyways, we went at it for a good 5 minutes, spamming whatever specials we wanted, and over these 5 minutes we both KD/dizzied each other twice or so. While he was twitching on the floor, I spammed unarmed head and over that entire time he was on the ground, I nmust of done 500 dmg, but with his willpower so high (brandy, muon, canape maybe), he easily regen'd all the damage I did to him. What I am trying to say is in my experience, TKM vs. TKM = stalemate. We eventually gave up and he ran off to hop on the shuttle right before it left.

If you are noticing that you cant hit someone hard on a certain attack, try switching up your approach. i was jumped while selling Faction points out of moeina cantina by a fellow in a ful comp suit, had my VK's equipped so i started cycling through my specials to see which parts of his armor were weakest. Head hits on him were useless, but when i tried unarmed combo 2 i noticed that his action dropped significantly. So i switched again to spamming unarmed leg hit and beat him. All of this happened in about 8 seconds. Know your template, know how to judge an opponent, and for god's sake be quick about it.

I dont count shield gens because
1) Most of the time they have a kinetic weakness anyway
2) Rumors that if a weapon has any AP it completly negates the effects of the PSG
