I dont think the devs will fix this nerf to the Teras Kasi skill because they still have release the new vibro knuckles that use lessHAM points yet I am knocking at deaths door when I am not even using vibro knuckles while training advanced Teras Kasi.


This ideaofequipping and unequipping VK is BS because it dont work for me because it costs me 212 on my ham bar ever time I use the knock down with out VK. I cant even burstrunto safetybecause I dont even have the points left for it on my HAM bar so all I can do is let my target kill me off. Thank god I dont have to insure my items yet or I would be broke already!

You've been playing UO for 4 years, and you should know nothing is guaranteed. Remember that they *nerfed* tank mages in UO? Remember they *nerfed* macers in UO? Remember they *nerfed* bards in UO?


If you could stick with all those chances for 4 years, why nerfin' TK sounds like a new thing to you? At least it's not as bad as the UO nerfs IMO.



Just a thought.

I have played Ultima Online for 4 years. I decided to try something new so two months ago I started SWG and when I started training the unarmed skill and then theTeras Kasi skill I never had so much fun in an online game for ages.


One month ago I began to hear rumors about changes the SWG dev team were thinkingof makingand while I tried to verify if these rumors were true by checking the boards I could find nothing to prove them true however with my four years of experience with Ultima Onlines past and current dev teams I could read these rumors like I had ESP andI knew that the current SWG dev team was looking to nerf the Teras Kasi skill because they somehow did not see it fit well into there master plan of the game however with out hard proof of this I could not stop training the Teras Kasi skill becuase of rumors.


When most people gave no thought of this new wonder patch the current SWG dev team claimed they were so excited about I was sweating bullets and when I logged on SWG at Dathomir I was in for a rude but not unexpected shock of finding out that the SWG dev team truly did nerf the Teras Kasi skill with their new patch just like I thought they would.


Before I go on any more let us first ponder these questions. Why does the current SWG dev team spend so much time on skills in a science fiction game based on the movies of Star Wars that had space ships and vehicles? Didnot40%-50% of the movie scenesin theStar Wars movies have some sort of space ship or some sort ofvehicle? Yet we have no space ship or a vehicles and infact the closest we can get to space is when we look up at the sky at night and let us not foeget thatwhen we have to travel outside thecities we haveto run around on planets by foot and now we see the current SWG dev teamwhich seemsmuch more intrested in nerfing skills than fixingin game bugs and adding space ships or vehicles to the game. I have never played Ever Quest but I keep seeing a lot of people say: The dev team is making this game Ever Quest in space.


Now back to the Teras Kais skill the current SWG dev team has nerfed so badly.


I cant begin to tell you how hurt I was by the SWG dev teams move to kill off the Teras Kasi skill. After the shock settled in I was angry because I felt betrayed because I had spent 70,000 creds and so many hourstojust to see allmy time and effort go down the toilet with their newpatch they were so excited about.


I hope that this current SWG dev team willfix their mistake on nerfing the Teras Kasi skill but if my Ultima Online experience holds correct I will have a better chance of seeing santa claus or E.T.


I will wait a couple of weeks to see if the current SWG dev team fixes their massivemistakes on the Teras Kasiskill butifthecurrent SWG dev team does nothingthen I am gonna quit SWG because I cant play a game that I used to enjoy when that enjoyment has been ripped away.


I thank those of youwho havetaken the time to read this post,

p.s. why pay for training? Find someone and ask them to train you . It only helps you and the the trainer out.

Yep, a 400% increase in HAM costs isn't a nerf. It's a betrayal that borders on suicide, because they've just lost themselves customers. And I'm not talking about the ones who post here, I'm talking about the silent masses who will realize that the Developers have no concept of the actualities of this game.

i cannot believe this outrage. my KD cost went from 34 to 202. and i went from being able to solo 2 rancors to dieing against an imperial cadet, just one of them. i agree that KD had to be nerfed a bit, but 6 fold is freakin too much. not to mention the 600 HAM it takes to KD with knucklers on.i would be ok with KD taking 100 HAM, that is reasonable because we can't spam it but it isn't suicidal either.


if they don't fix this by september 17th im gone....


(thats the day jedi knight 3 comes out)
