heya

just curious, what is the max range ofa tkm? with vibroknucklers? and is there a special lunge attack?

just doing some dueling, and thought that getting hit with vibroknucklers 22m away was odd. or maybe i just had a misconception. please enlighten.

20 meters is the max with ul1, and vibros dont make a difference in range.

Note - Unarmed Lunge is not a TKA specific skill.

Hmm...why so many different answers?

I know if I weild my VK, If I'm over 5m...I get... Target out of range

Bare hands I can go as far as 9-10m...but even sometimes at 8m and unarmed I get... Target out of range

the test i did was with 2 char on same server. i made sure both distances stated were were equal. both stood still and the tka char attacked.

those were the numbers i got. any other way and you'd have to figure server lag into the equation which i've seen to be up 20m difference at times. this is with 2 comps side by side. less than 100ms ping, no packet loss.

Many different answers because 1) it just changed and 2) it varies based on the circumstances.

My experience after the most recent patch is that VKs have no affect on range.Auto-attack will hit up to 5m. Lunge will hit up to 20m. All other specials hit at 10m. All when both players are standing still and have been for a little while.

When moving, this all goes out the window. The reason for the range buff was that the range shown on *your* client may bare very little resemblance to the range shown on your *opponent's* client, while the server has a third idea about it. You could get hit while your client shows 25m, the server thinks it's 10m and your opponent was showing 5m. Thesynchronization issue works both ways (allowing for both an apparent increase and apparent decrease in range).

All this aside, we *still* get out of range errors when the client shows us as <5m away. The range buff didn't fix the problem at all, it just reduced the circumstances that would cause it and gave other players a newreason to complain about us.

20m is a hell of a lunge!

Thanks for the answers guys, guess in the future I better add a buffer of another 10m then
