Teras Kasi Archive

Hey guys I am vet player and have always been interested in the TKA Proffession. I created a new toon just to experiment with it. I hit novice last night and came over here to read the FAQ and I don't see the info that I need. Iwas wondering if you could answer a few questions for me.

1. What Tree Progression should I climb? ex 4/x/x/x then 4/x/4/x? Iknow that he Comabt XP Tree is"As I go".


2. From what I gather the vibro knucklers didn't convert well. Should I bare knuckle it until I can pick up a baster fist or a ROTW loot?


3. What CA's and AA's are currently working for TKA? UA Damage, Speed, Acc, Etc

Thanks for any help that you can provide. I know I hate it when you see 100 Template/Info posts a day but I honestly couldn't find the answers to my questions.

Just FYI - from the Stickies I am going to go TKM/MFencer/Doc 4/X/X/X

Thanks

1. xx4x then x44x then 444x, and by then you should have enough combat xp to have mastered

2. If you have a low CL, use VKs if you notice that you kill things faster, otherwise if you kill faster barefisted, go with that. Pre-CU the advice was to always use a VK, but now I don't know. Figure out which works fastest for you and use that

3. I only have a couple of +1 CAs, so I really can't tell if they work or not.

Also, another tidbit that might help: don't neglect your medic skills. They can and will save you a *lot*. If you get in a good group, every other kill be a healer and you should rise through the profession pretty quickly and you'll notice the utility of being a doc.

ok this is what i would do, ive dont the tkm grind pre and post CU for a total of about 4 times lol, and i recommend going up the balance tree first for CoB which will help you take damage more, so go x4xx, then go x44x, by then you should have about two and a half boxes of the combat tree, and then just work ur way up the meditation tree which is helpful but not towards grinding, get CoB and increase your damage output first then youll blow up the meditation and combat tree, hehe and remember group up for a quicker grind, as far as Vk's go i think youll probably hit about the same considering the weapon damage is currently funky, i think its not working properly my katarn knuckler only hits for 50 more damage then my barefist which better be totally wrong, so do which ever works better for ya, as far as CA's im not sure i think they should all be working i havent tried any post CU, so i couldnt tell ya, Good Luck

erm, everyone suggests these xx4x,x44x progressions, well, i went up evenly through the tiers, and that may be why I had a bit of trouble earlier on, but I'd be sure to grab powerboost (2xxx) as soon as you can.

Off topic (sorry). Santoro, did you play EQ on the Xev server? The name sounds awfully familiar.

No matter how you do it, TK is fun... Having said that I suggest getting CoB first.So x1xx, then x14x, thenx44x... Power Boost is nice at 2xxx, but I say don't go for that until you find yourself incappeda lot, or dead more often than you like.

an extra 500 health can go a long way in combat, but as far as most valuable part of tka CoB takes the cake the ability to dodge and mitigate attacks is a much better alternative then 500 extra health at first, get CoB then move up the power tree so you can kill faster, finish up the balance tree and then get meditation which is really just an amplifier of your other skills
