This is a very difficult question to answer but , here it goes...
Probably theeasiest way is to pick up a ranged profession of your own - pistoleer if you want defenses with some health hits - rifleman if you want to hit mind - carbineer if you want to try a ranged kd to close in on your opponent and use your tk skills. The only thing to worry about on this path is - swapping weapons in pvp can be very annoying... there is a 5 second period where you have to wait to attack.
If you want to fight a ranged person with TKM only... it's simple, you HAVE to knock the person down. Some ways to do this are using burst run to catch up or lunging (range 20m). Once you catch up... kd2 followed by dizz1 should make the kd stick. Then use your attacks based on which pool you want to attack.
The way I fight ranged people as TKM is with CM. I just throw my poisons - then chase them around and watch their HAM go to nothing, once they loose their mind, they cant attack... so it's just cat and mouse. If the person has some doctor in his template, i throw poisons to keep him buisy healing himself thus still using mind to heal. Eventually I have to catch up to the person - i usually use burstrun/lunge. Hope that helps... enjoy tkm

This is tough..but you can do it:
My template:
TKM
Master Brawler
Doc 4-0-3-0
1st: Intimdate it works up to 30 meters
2nd: PSGs (Personal shield Generator) Equip one and a good helmet (Since mind is usually what gets targeted)
3rd: SynSteak
4th: Warcry + Lunge1 or Lung2 (MasterBrawler lung2)
5th: "Line of sight"..if your in trouble..hide behind a building..make him/her come to you...and dont chase your enemy..try and be where he gonna be at instead of trying to chase him.
6th: Use your burst run only when you need to.
7th: once you do catch up with him..stun him and dizzy him...but always ty to keep him intimdated.
8th: Never ever use UA3 unless your enemy is down..and his Health or action is 1/2 down...I use Unarmed combo 2 and Headchot1.. alot.
Im strictly Melee.
Hope this helps.

Fencers, even with crappy stun batons do fairly well against ranged.

ha! fencers are easy once you prepare.
get 40% stun helment, chest, boots, and gloves
Even with only 40% the stun baton doesnt do enough damage to really hurt you.
Stun them or intidate to kill their dodge and have at them.
For ranged, like most people say, knockum down. Riflemen have like no Kd defense so they go down quickly and usually stay down. Pistoleers can be more trouble to get down.
Either run inot a building or get within 20 ms to lunge1 them to catch up.

Get master brawler. Intimidate2 will last a long time and seriously reduce their ability to do damage to you, and it is a ranged attack. Make sure you have Lunge1 and Lunge2 hotkeyed, both are 20m attacks. One will posture down, the other will knock down, either will put em on their back if they are dizzy, and they use seperate timers. (That means if you use knockdown and they get up, you can still use posture down without having to wait, and vice versa.)
