in my opinion i think tka'a should get an area kd attack. i mean it would help a lot. instead of taking one at a time. or using area attack 2 and only doin around 2k damage a hit use the area kd then use area 2 and be doin arounf 3.5k dmaage a hit. anyone else think this is a good idea? just a thought.

It's a bad idea.

We get no special area attacks. That's one of the things that balances us against other professions. Polearms get area attack KDs, swordsmen get area attack posture change and dizzy, fencers get area attack blind. We get none of that and it's one reason why we're allowed to have the benefits we have, like being able to land any state on someone. Giving us an area effect KD might overpower us.

Area attacks are one of the Pikeman's specialities, to give them to TK would take away from another proffesion to much. As it stands TK is more focused on single target fighting & we get people crying to nerf us when we are infact a well ballenced proffesion. If we were given something which is from the teritory of another proffesion then this would unballance us.


So while it's a nice idea to be able to do more in this case, in my opinion, it's just not going to happen as it would, probably, be too unbalancing & it would be taking away from another proffesion.If you want to be damaging multiple targets at once & puting states on them & KD'ing them then it would be much easier to go Pikeman.

insted of getting an unarmed dizzy 1 then we should just get an area kd . since we alredy have unrmed kd 2 to do the dizzy and kd . but it only works on one target at a time. so that is why i even put this post up.

That would still over balance us, even from the veiw you use. "since we alredy have unrmed kd 2 to do the dizzy and kd" the reason we have a single dizzy is so that we can apply just a dizzy if we want, many TK's prefer to use this dizzy & use Lunge2 to KD their opponant for example. It's not a case of KD2 been two skills we have already, it's two skills that we have which can be used at once if we wish to but without giving us a whole other skill.


As said by the others in the thread, area-attacks & not the strong point of TK & are designed to be more the strong point of Pikeman (& to a lesser extent Fencer & Swords).

i for one prefer Dizzy+lunge1 simply because Def VS posture change seems to be the lower Stat of most PvP'ers, besides since hte stealth nerf of the State attacks the Dizzy on KD 2 seems to land less often. And By using KD2 on a target thats already KD you end up having the target stand back up and not being able to knock him down for anoter 28 or so seconds

No this is justa bad idea. TK allready kicks arse and were we to be given this it would seriously overpower os. The AOE melee attacks are the realm of the pikemen, we should not intrude.

It would make sense to have an area KD, like the toon would drop to the ground and spin one leg around to sweep the enemie off his feet. But the second poster is right...that would make TKA way too powerful! Not that any TKM would complain...but the other professions could get agitated
