Thread: lets not complain about some of the things we dont have that others do
DarthDenigrate, you are dodging the question .. just like SOE.
Do we want TKA to be a carbon copy of another profession? Of course not. Do we want to be all powerful? Of course not.
What we DO want is for the TKA profession to be viable. We are not 'complaining', 'whining', etc. because we want what others have. We are complaining because we are not viable. There is a siginificant difference between whining out want and the simple act of pointing out a glaring imbalance.
As of right now, if I use a simple knockdown ability (with VK's equipped) I incure 1075+ action damage, 550+ health and mind damage.
You don't have to compare those number with ANYTHING to recognize that they are inbalanced and 'out of whack'.
Comparing TKA to other professions does serve a purpose, however: it clearly demonstrates why the KD nerf for TKA's is so unfair to begin with. Pistoleers can spam 25+ 'pistol whips' in a row, withsmall, incremental HAM costs. TKA's, on the other hand, use KD twice and they're already at one third HAM, across ALL pools.
Please, if you think this is okay, I'd love to hear your logic/rationale for saying so.
Also, what is the point of criticisizing us for making comparisons between the combat professions, especially when it is done with an intent that is valid and constructive? You don't see us ranting "Nerf the Bounty Hunters now!!" do you? (No, you don't. That sort of behavior seems to bereserved for the ranged weapon players. You know, the same people who kept whining about TKA's being oh so powerful.)
We're simpily proposing ideas, potential 'fixes', etc. More than anything, though, we're giving examples as to why TKA needs some serious'looking at'. Bringing other professions into the discussionisjust another way to make the issues evident.
