Ok i gave up BH i was 0433. It was ok...not too great dmg except for the great KD's and confusion shot for carbine tree and high dmg for the LLC. But the amount of skill points it took up was terrible. I also had to eventually give up BH cuz holo said ....~cough~Merchant~cough~.....So i was out taking on some Dark Troops at the Imp base near lake retreat on tat...and then a TKA shows up. A pair of troops spawn and he goes after them and KDs dizzys and stuns etc........ lol then by the time i get out my freaking CDEF carbine to use Fire KD to get away from the 200 action HAM costs for my laser carb he has killed both of them.... Then i think wow i really need to drop BH. So here i am wanting to become a TKA and having no idea what to do. I am now a novice brawler with the first unarmed skill and 2500 xp until the second skill. So i was just wondering what i should hunt to get to Novice TKA the fastest. I cant take on anything like pickets yet so remember im just a measly little novice brawler. I aprreciate all of your help!!!

On the other hand if you think a real game is based on PVE and that PVP is just a cheap excuse by developers to avoid providing real game content, then choose TKA Because were better by far than any other class at PVE, and look good doing it. Ok sure maybe a BH can kite their way through some mobs given 30 minutes than we cant take down, but for the most part you can kill a mob in seconds and leave other classes gaping.

Hunt basically anything that isn't BAF and doesn't kill you before you kill it. There is no great exp creature for unarmed. It is very much a grind up to novice TKA. After unarmed 3, that last 200k takes a while. You can group, but usually the horrible dmg you do at those lvls means your getting 200-300 exp on a baz nitch or something.

I posted a faster way to get there in this thread - how ever as I state in that thread, I feel you need to learn as you grind - the tka you saw kicking butt and taking names probably knew his profession well, and didnt grind his way to the top

I'd also learn how to use specials while grinding, and not just go with berserk and fast VKs. Stun, Intimidate, War Cry andBlind make many creatures easy to handle.

Yup, NPCs are our specialty. I would say that we may be the strongest PvE class against NPCs. For other PvE, I'd have to go with a ch/commando combo.

ranger/rifle/CH owns the PvE creature world.

TKA owns the PvE NPC world... if you can catch them.

PvP is Paper, Rock, and Scissors. pwn at your own risk.

as a young TKA (my alt) with 2.2.1.2, and novice commando (ie, master marksman), I took out a pesky PvP'er with rifle 4.4.4.3. my ranged defense, and his running, caused him to miss 10 shots, and hitme oncefor 99 dmg (I had to check the combat log to even notice the hit). I didn't even get to use any elegant specials on him... chasing him, I was forced to spam the novice brawler /unarmedlunge1. but that was all it took.

I rode that bantha all the way to incap.

Well you really can't power grind, as the power of TKA is in the tatics of what specials on what targets. However do go with fast VK's you use them a long time, look for missions that spawn in pairs. Depends what planet you are on (lare retreat is on Naboo???). For tat I went with bocatts. They are easy to split and handle 1 on 1.

Don't forget if you still have scout, wire mesh traps.

if you like getting kited pvp by Novice BH's and pistoleers it's your choice
