As TKA in close range combat, we need to have a move that would disarm an opponent (and not by damaging the weapon like it is done in the pistoleer tree from what i heard). I mean just look at the real world, any form of martial art have something that dedicated toward defense against a weapon, usually by using the weapon against the wielder. A move such as this should be able to disable the use of a weapon for a set amount of time (i will leave everybody else to figure out the balancing act).

P.S. can any one tell me why the pistoleer tree have better defense against posture change than the TKAtree (not that defense works properly anyway)? I am trying of losing a hand to hand combat w/ a pistoleer!

Many of us have lobbied for a skill like this, Daboora.


Unfortunately, the dev's don't seem to care.


Imagine if we had a powerful disarming attack that could destroy a weapon if we got close to it. That would make the ranged PvP players think twice about attacking us.


Of course, SOE will never implement such a thing.


/sarcasm ... I mean, we're "overpowered"' right now, right?

I like this idea of disarming alot. Too bad it will never happen, only thing the devs know how to do is "balance" classes by making the game less fun than before. With every new patch that comes out, more and more people quit. Devs- ease up now because you're ruining the game.

The dev's focus on the ranged people because they are the easiest to work with, we are just biches on the side, and will continue to stay that way until Raph Koster is fired for being a sheepish moron with as much skill at making/supervising(*whatever he doesn't do*)MMORPG's as Sammy Davis Jr. We won't see any new additions until people start burning down corporate buildings, which its almost getting to that point for some.



As to your p.s: You want to worry about defense vs. knockdown more then posture change, it's a hell of a lot easier to hit the UP arrow then it is to wait 15 seconds on your back, so start getting your Balance Conditioning up, at Adv it gives you +20 knockdown defense, as well as more posture change defense.
