Teras Kasi Archive

Ok happy is ment to be in a sarcastic tone. Basically upon reading more about teras kasi (www.teraskasi.com) as well as some of the expanded universe books it is apparent that we have been put here to keep the jedi "in check". Read my signature for an exact quote about jedi fearing us.

Currently I have not dueled a jedi as master brawler, TKM however I don't feel that he/she would be very afraid of me. So here is my proposal.

Perhaps either A. giving us some kind of defense against lightsabers I.E. a dodge or resistance. or B. get an elite elite class of Teras Kasi that would be for hunting jedi's.

Should B, be an option I don't feel that any amount of unarmed xp should grant you that honor of being a jedi hunter. There needs to be trails or some kind that will be difficult to open up that tree. NO HOLOCRONS or mastering random levels. I mean talking to a trainer and he gives you difficult quests that you must finish in order to achieve this platform of teras kasi.

I came up with this idea after reading something in Mister_Heavy's report about a TK only quest of some kind... perhaps this would be a good way to bring that about. However it would have to be extremely difficult and done alone. To many 'jedi hunter tks' would definately bring about a nerf something fierce.

Just thought I would share this idea..

I think that the tka's should ally with the jedi, they are the closest in relation.

But after reading your sig more carefully, i think that's a good idea. Or have something in meditate that allows a tka to track jedi, that would be cool...

From all this reading about how Jedis feared tk's I definatly see how there could be an add on the go off of TKM. An elite elite TKA.

TKM has 57% melee toughness... does that count for your resistance?

As long as TKs aren't permadeath (skill loss, same deal) and cost 250 skillpoints, you'll never be as powerful as Jedi. There's no sense whatsoever asking.

I believe we all realize that to be true. But its still a nice dream to have. Thanks for ruining the fun

The fact is...if the devs do not allow for a Elite Elite class for the Teras Kasi, then they themselves, alone will single handedly re-define who the Teras Kasi are. They will be rejecting all material that came before they ever did and arbitrarily re-define us.....I think that is bad and I think that they should never had made us as a profession in this game unless they plan to make us stronger, which I think they are in upcomming patches with +250 damage and the Center Of Being skill.

please post what books tk is described in. thank you

and xeo, there's alot of stuff they *shouldn't* have put in.how can you have a balanced game when there is 1 ranged profession that is better than every other ranged profession? (better in terms of specials and skill mods). how can you have a balanced game when there is 1 melee profession that is better than every other melee profession? (for the same reasons).

no, i have no choice but to /bonk all the devs. what were they thinking?

Once again I hear about the TKA in the EU. Where in the EU are TKA mentioned as Jedi watchers/hunters. Ive read many EU novels, and still havent found one that talks about tka in such a matter. Currently I decided to pick Shadows of the Empire again, just to se what or where people found the information about tka. Havent read it all and its been a long time since i last read it, but so far ive only seen them mentioned once. Two TKA twins. Prince xixor is watching them in a video and is impresed on how these wemen are pummeling 8 storm troopers and not even breaking a sweat. That is all it says so far. He is going to hire them to kill luke, but nothing is mentioned afterwards. We cannot conclude that with such little info, they would even be capable of beating Luke (haha would have never happened)..

Im not saying that beating a Jedi should be imposibe (well in the game it will be if soloing) but in no way its an easy task. The only true watchers of th eJedi are the sith or dark jedi. They will be the only ones really doing all the jedi killing.

Anyways Im just writing because I would like to know where you are getting all of this TKA EU related info. It would be great just to readanything about tka. So far I havent seen a tka even holding a secondary role in any novel. Actualy my mistake. Two have, Darth MAul and a twileck jedi he kills. Both practiced tka and used it to compliment their skills.

Tka is just a martial art style, nothing more noyhing less.

Oh, and i play a tka before any flaming starts.

corsair: this has been brought up countless times before. every time someone says that tk is the balance of jedi they allways say ''it's in the books'', and every time, they are asked ''show me what book''. and that retort is met with silence. it isn't in any book like they are describing. what they are describing is coming off of a fanfiction website.

I compleatly agree with you. The info they all claim as TKA cannon comes from a role playing story made by someone for their roleplaying character. In no ways is this Star Wars cannon. Like I said I vr read many novels and comics and nothing (at least not sustancial) about TKA.

Im just trying to make people realize that thir vision of what a Tka should be is not real and probably it has nothing to do with what the devs wanted to do. I think the devs just put melee combat to give a little of variety to the game and keep interest in those that do not like ranged profesions.

Anyways, i do agree with you, lets just hope this finally silences people and stops all the speculation of what tka is or should be. Tka is whatever you want it to be, at least untill some guide is given to us.

it's only normal that a jedi is more powerfull that a TKA, or any prof. so everything should stay the same oke yes TKA are jedi killers in the comic books. but this is a game and I wouldn't make sence. OR they should make TKA a very rare prof LIKE the jedi prof. or idd a special TKA version. BUT then It wouldn't be fair against other prof's... etc...
