Unless the person is wearing an armor that absorbs electricity or is some kind of wierd creature that feeds off of electricity, then electricity should pierce through most anything. And yes tka can and should have a weapon that charges up and then boom shocks the shiz out of you. This would of course be a weapon with much slower speed then vks.
Giving tka heat damage is kinda pointless because most things are resist to heat&kenetic electricity would actually be nice thing to have no dots are needed just decent damage and ap. THIS WAY TKA CAN KILL THE STUFF WORTH KILLING IN THIS GAME JUST LIKE BLOODYSWORDSMAN!!!!HATE SWORDSMAN!!!

Im a masterbrawler/masterswordsman/mastertka. I use swordsman to solo krayts and NS and stuff but I also use tka. I love that it has meditate can self heal. Also they have a awsome kd and dizzy. They also alot faster than swordsman.

Theres been some suggestions in the past of our actual hands gaining AP 1 at novice, and AP 2 at master, however the VK is fine, i'd leave it alone, unless you want to lower the special cost

i know how cool it would be to get ap2 or even3 (ha) but look at it this way, theoretically we have the smallest weapon, and weapon type, i dont think that a fist or some form of the fist, should ever puncture/peirce armor as a say 7 foot long vibrating stick. Ap1 is fine for me, and i think getting an AP3 wep to the pikeman would really solvle their dilema of not being good in PvP without uber equipment or stacked templates. I think giving the NSE ( nightsister energy lance for all you non-pike lovers out there) AP3 would make this weapon worth its rarity, even tho' the damage sucks on it........ but i agree that we, TKA's do need the damage type that is coming to us, i thnk it will balance PvP with it's damage numbers plus the heat, and it will once again make us viable in places that are mostly off limits to us...... IE geo caves, or DWB
* note i have never used TKA in the geo or DWB i did the geo's with swords and the TKM with me was getting outdamaged, so, sorry if i offend, and in the DWB i was scared, didnt pay attention to anyone but the jedi owning things and myself.
BTW why do you hate swordsman ( !!!11! !!!!!!1) TKA's have a much cooler time running missions making cash healing wounds and getting my mind up to 4k w/out using my vercupti

No to electric damage. That belongs to pikemen.
If you don't like heat, then ask for cold.

That would be rather unbalanced dont you think? Look at our damage output as it is, make it electric and add in some bonuses for ap2 or 3...ouch we would be gods worth nerfing then.
Our speed mod naturally goes over 100 so even if the weapon was speed 20 we would fire off specials over the cap.
this is just a bad bad idea. Many people think "Oh wouldnt it be cool if we had X?" never really trying to think of the big picture and why X would ultimately be bad for the game balance as a whole.

If you are worried about swordsmen killing stuff that tks can't, go pick it up! This would totally unbalence the game.

lol, I don't think he does....
AP2 would be nice, or just lower some of the kinetic resists. I'm not asking for a drastic reduction. 85-95 % would be fine so we could do a small amount of damage.

Wouldn't it be cool if like Bart in that episode of the Simpsons we had the all powerful "Touch Of Death" just think about it 1 hit kills on everything! Think about it 1 hit kill Night Sister Elders, 1 hit kill on a Giant Dune Kimo. oh and Jedi's watch out 1 hit kills on them as well!

The thing you guys dont realize is that swordsmans speed is 75 so they swing really slow (with a powerhammer)unless they buy attachments which cost millions.... you guys alrdy have ur speed capped 
I'd say okay for this if they made it like the DE-10 very hard to loot so they costal ot so not every noob is runnin around w/ an uber weapon
