After the patch 6 nerfs, I find myself here with you guys. As a former Swordsman and a new TKA, please help me out with a few questions.

1. What are the HAM cost of bare fist?

2. Does dodge work with unarmed?

3. I heard that if you knock down an already knocked down foe, they will instantly get up. Is this true?

4. Whats the deal with center of being. I heard it does not work. Can anyone please explain?

5. Most TKM's I see rarely wear armor. What do you guys (and gals) fell about armor?

6. At master, VK use them or dont use them?

Thank you for your time. /bow

1. If you have a decent Vibro its not much different HAM costs...with unarmed i lost about 49 mind with UA3 and lost about 59 with vibro on.

2. Dunno

3. Yup...thats why even though you have KD2...have dizzy on your hot keys because the dizzy does not always stick and if you use KD2 again to dizzy them they will get back up.

4. Never used it...lol

5. I would say it depends on what you are fighting, I have a 77% Ubese armor set for tanking melee creatures ( this armor rox, I was tanking a canyon krayt for my group...got about -50 a hit with full armor...groupies were getting about -1200 damage without armor, I was also not buffed except for muon...so ubese 0wnz all). If you have the $$ get a nice % composite...but u have to be buffed and have muon and some fishack if you hope to be able to wear it without killing yourself with specials. For PvP i dont see many people wearing armor as TKs...and if i do see them it is usually ubese to fight against other TKMs.

6. When I fight critters, I prefer to have my VK on, as long as im buffed I have no problems with it. For PvP I dont use it unless the person im fighting has armor.

1. Not sure of the exact HAM cost but they are moderate when buffed.

2. Not sure what you mean by dodge. We get melee mitigation 3 at master and through out the tree we get bonuses to combat equilibrium, ranged and melee defences and defenses against dizzy and posture changes but if you mean do we have a dodge like the fencer or pistoleer i dont believe so.

3. Conserning KD and Dizzy two things I have observed: First if a oppornent has some melee ability and attempts to stand after KD and dizzy they can the moment they get up still hit you for damage then fall back until the dizzy subsides or you db them. Second: IF you accidentaly spam KD and the first succeeds the second may be resisted and cause your enemy to bounce up. Something to keep in mind.

4. It works...sort of. Definitely needs work though. I will say this: I would rather have the little I have with CoB then no CoB at all.

5. I wear armor. I wear full composite of the best quality. I also get buffs to the gills. When not buffed i wear high kinetic resist Ubese. Some MTKA do not wear armor but many do.

6. Don't use them. HAM cost is too high and they can interfere with certain attacks like lunge.
