Teras Kasi Archive

I'm wondering if there are any TKA's on test center that would be willing to give the rest of the community here some information on the changes that are currently on Test Center.

Basically here's what I'd personally like to know:

Knockdown

A) How much of a power increase was given to compensate for the 30 second timer.

B) How long do target NPC's not fight back after a knockdown is applied?

C) Seeing as how Knockdown is a per target thing can you use it back to back if using it on multiple targets? IE Knockdown Storm trooper then Knockdown the imperial medic.

D) The new HAM costs of Knockdown and other moves (supposedly all moves ham costs should've been reduced)

E) Can you use Knockdown and then lunge on the same target? Or must you wait the full 30 seconds to use another attack such as lunge?

PvP

A) In a PvP fight against a pistoleer or any ranged class are you taking less dammage? (when running)

B) In a PvP fight against a pistoleer or any ranged class are they missing more often? (when running)

C) Do ranged classes run slower now when firing and running away?

D) Basically I'd like your opinion on how this change to knockdown/lunge will effect PvP battles taking into account the changes that havegone in for other classes as well(good or bad). Please only people on Test Center who actually havetested out the changes should reply to this.

Any other information on these changes would also be greatly appriciated. I think it'll help the rest of the community decide if the Knockdown change is going to benefit us or hurt us, rather than basing it on the assumptions as we are now.

These are outstanding questions and I to would like to know the answers to these questions so if someone could anwser Josefs questions it would help all people who play the Teras Kasi profession.

I know at one point we had a TKA on TC, butI don't remember his/her name. I myself would love to hop over to TC! ...Once they instantiate the character copy, that is.

I started a character there the other day but it's going to take quite a while to get up to the TKA levels unless the developers decide to give players a boost in their stats. However the devsalso stated that they had enough people in all professions that they wouldn't be promoting anyone any time soon so I figured I'd ask here and see what type of information I could get in the mean time.

For the moment it seems to me that the next patch will be just another nerf to the TKAs. We wanted a fix and the SOE devs break us more. *sigh*

Pardon the bump but I'd really like to see a reply.

I just created a character on Test. Name is Wulf.

They are going to "bump" the Correspondents characters up very soon. That way, we will be able to test out our professions at master level.

So Ill be able to verify any changes for all of you. Hopefully it will make my job easier.

They are going to "bump" the Correspondents characters up very soon.

This is the first real benefit for the Correspondents. Im glad..

Hey Bane,

Good to know they are helping you move up so you can test things as they will be at "endgame" for us TK Masters. I created a Brawler today to test for a bit...and then realized ugh Im not fast as a brawler hehe, so it is great to know that we will hear it from "the horses mouth" as it were.

Good luck and happy hunting bro!

Hello All,

I believe as far as TKAs go on TC I'm it. due to the path I took to get there I had KD for almost 1 full day before the changes were made therefore I didn't get alot of prenerf time to see how it worked. I can tell you that against mobs/npcs it's basicly useless imho, they stay down for about 1/2 a second. As for PvP, not much goes on on TC. A few duels here and there are about the extent of it. I know I seem kinda useless only been TKA for 2 weeks so Im still learning. I hope having Thunder there will help me in that I will have someone to discuss things with and learn from. Never really been a big poster but I guess with the limited number of TKAs on test I need to try to be more active here.
