Thread: Another Master TK complaining...
Alright,
I tought i was going to quit, right after i played 1 hour after this patch when i couldnt killed 2 imperial medics and 1 imperial sergeants with 2 sludge panters supporting me, the reason was not that the mobs were hitting me but i was killing myself while i was using my specials.
I am not talking about KD, i am talking about the only useful move that TK uses as dmg Unarmed3, it costs 229ham when you do it and KD2 costs 169 per hit. so i can not knockdown, and use my only useful special more than 2 times per mob, hehe. Ok now the funny part since considering most missions are for social creatures who helps each other how a TK is going to survive more than 2 mobs and finish the mission. Than I understand why Devs made mission on Talus and other planets closer than before, because they knew that all TK's and melee classes will get simply get rap[ed after this patch=)
Now for some PvP issues, on an open field, a TK doesnt even stand a chance agains any ranged opponent. Reasons are simple any clever ranged person will keep running since they know that TK's can t get close to them in time, and when they do it is over anyways. Now everyone is going to say wear armor, and cut the ranged dmg, but here is the problem ham costs, how a TK wearing armor can do any specials and survive?, lemme answer that noone can.
How can you balance Tk is simpler than what it looks like.First reducing all ham costs(including with VK's), second, either give more defence vs ranged or give Tk's thorowing weps, which will get certifications from presision striking(This come to my mind when i was reading a pistoleer forum, about pistoleers doing melee attacks. So, why not TK gets ranged weps. Sounds fair to me).
Now gotto goto work, i ll finish this when i get back, feel free to add things that i have missed or if you feel that i am wrong,

...and then James Bond kicks in and shoot Bruce Lee with aFWG5 pistol
Bond wins
Bruce tries to fight back with his super kick, however this ain't matrix, so before he can get to him, James Bond shoots another bullet at him.
Bond wins
With a last chance, Bruce tries to sneak behind Bond however Bond sees it and shoots a couple shots at him...Bruce tries to dodge the bullet but unfortunately he ain't Mr. Anderson so he falls down.
Bond wins
..at last, Bond walks up to him and gives him a deathblow...
Bond wins
Bruce got ressurected and he just bought a sliced carbine from someone, and he found Bond datin' a woman so he fired at him.
Bruce wins
..at last, Bruce walks up to him and gives him a deathblow(whack him usin' the carbine).
Bruce wins
Something i saw on another forum to explain how TKvsranged works=)
