I know this much...in Q-3POs thread about our concerns I know that he or she mentioned that Unarmedcombos did not do as much damage as just hitting with equiped VKs!


Now as a result instead of upping the damage to Unarmedcombos did they simply lower our damage output?


I am not sure...I would like your thoughts on this..maybe some of you have done research on this but I do know this much:


Before patch my VK unarmedhit2 damage was 1200 average now its 900


Before patch my VK normal hit were 500 and above now they are 300


Has anyone else noticed this????? Or am I drinking Drano?

from what i've seen and heard, all damage across the board has been reduced, not just pvp, but pve and not just tka, but pike, pistol, carbine, etc etc. i was hunting gurks last night with a pistoleer and she kept complaining about her damage going way down, then we duelled. heh. master gunfighter with damage sliced dx2on me, unarmored and everything...she was hitting me with bodyshot3 for 41-43, and that's unintimidated, mind you. the most damage she did with a single shot i think was 60? somewhere around there. anyway, what they've done is effectively made all combat take longer heh, but at least it's applied to everyone (that i've seen sofar anyway)

i skimmed through the patch notes once a week ago on tc, and then again the other day when it went live, and i don't remember seeing anything like ''damage accross the board has been reduced 75%''. i could have missed it though. i'm going to say it was a ninja-nerf

I think what you're seeing is reduced damage from armor piercing weaponry. The devs have already stated that armor and armor piercing is completely borked right now. I find my unarmed damage is just fine without VK's on. I still do well over 1000 damage with UA2 without VK's. Just wait until they hotfix the armor and things should go back to semi-normal.

And hopefully they'll pull out that additional 75% PVP damage reduction.

I don't think it has anything to do with armor. My unarmedhit2 has gone from the 1000-1300 range down to upper 700s with my 48-172 VK. without the knuckler my unarmedhit2 is in the upper 600s and lower 700s.


To me it seems something happened with the knucklers. For that measly increase of damage that the VK is providing right now, I don't even use it. It's not worth the weapon decay. So if I'm still hitting for 700 without a VK, I don't think the 75% decrease is across the board.

Like I said, armor piercing weaponry is screwed up too, not just armor. Since VK's have light armor piercing it's doing much less damage than normal. I read they were hotfixing this today. At least we can hope.

No fix today.

My 211 VK still hits for less damage than my 165 VK did before the patch. Armor piercing must also still be broken. In additon to the chat window damage reduction, actual damage is stil WAY down. Before the patch, I was able to take down a giant dune kimo with my 165 VK. My 211 VK took it down about 1/5th before it killed me tonight, and that took quite a while.

My damage output has been cut in half since yesterday. I was regularly hitting 1700 to 2200 with UH2 and VK's yesterday and now I'm hitting 1200 to 1400. It's fine if this is intentional, but I have yet to see any statement that says this was an intentional rebalancing of the TK class. If this isn't the way it's supposed to be, then please fix it!!!!!

No, Cerillian, it is not fine if it is intentional. Our damage output needs to be returned to exactly what it was before the patch.

I got three consecutive sub 500 hits with UH3 and my 211 VK today.
