Lunge - does more damage that Advanced Leg Sweep and also knocks down the opponant. Is this as intended? Makes ALS kinda useless.


Advanced Combo Attack - pathetic. Is this broken? Damage is terrible.


Parry Riposte - is this of any use, with CoB up? Should this be used?


Weapons at Master - Are there any recomended weapons a TKM should use? Everything I've tried, my naked fists are better.


Thanks for your feedback

the answer to all your questions is...


Who Cares?


tkm rocks due to the fact that it has the best defences in the game and you dont have to spend money on armor. as far as attacks go, dont even bother. the offence is weak and pretty useless unless you have tkm/doc as a template to keep you alive for the huge amount of time it will take for you to kill anything (actually, not a bad template),


If you want to do decent damage, you need a second elete prof to do your fighting. swords/tkm does the most damage. pike/tkm does slightly less damage but has slightly better defence and is nice for crowd control.


If you are interested in using tkm for offence, you are in the prof for the wrong reasons and should reconsider your template. Dont get me wrong, tkm rocks, but not for offence.

ok...thanks...but not really answering the questions...


I am TKM/MD, and I agree, not a bad temp at all. I am not interested in the damage dealing capabilities...what gave you that idea? Anway, I am just curious about the questions asked because, well...I just am


Really, I am wondering if some are known bugs and what not. Plus, since I am TKM/MD, these ARE my primary attacks. Anyway...

I agree

This does damage just fine, just doesn't report it correctly. It also uses a lot of action IMO.


Parry Riposte - is this of any use, with CoB up? Should this be used?

This skill is pointless as it only reflects like 10 damage back, and lasts about 5 seconds.

Fists are best until you get the Katarn from a ROTW quest. I personally use a nice Fencer quest sword that has a max dmg of 1040 since I dabble in fencer. In other words, it's not neccesary to use the unarmed weapons to be effective.


Thanks for your feedback

You're welcome.

no idea, that's a question for the devs

there is supposedly a bugg with the combat spatial and the "floaties" ACA is actually doing more damage than the numbers indicate . . something like 3x more


Parry Riposte - is this of any use, with CoB up? Should this be used?


Thats a master Brawler tech right? I've used it like once and I'm not sure if it did anything

right now . .no. You'll do more damage with bare fists (aka kinetic) supposedly when creatures get the update, they will have resistances and vulnerabilities where TK weapon that do different damage types such as energy or blast may be more advantagous for even masters to use.


Thanks for your feedback


your very welcome

I use parry riposte as well as advanced sword flurry (swordsman) and intimidate (pikeman) : i take as much damage as CoB. in other word, i think that parry riposte is interesting, though you have to hit 3 buttons .


But for me CoB doesn't work every time. So it helps good.

ALS can knock down multiple opponents, lunge only 1.
