The devs have said that the Razor Knucklers will be back with the Combat Revamp, but that doesnt mean that they cannot be changed based on what we want them to be. My biggest beef with the new knuckler isnt the damage type, rather its the items that you need to make them. They require killing an NPC with 100% kinetic resistances which to me basically means that the TKA cant get the items they need to make their own weapon.
Heat damage is also comparable to kinetic damage in terms of how many people and mobs resist that damage type. Dont get me wrong. Im very excited for this new weapon to add to my arsenal. Id just like to see some minor changes dont to it.
That problem put aside I would like to hold a discussion on what youd like the new knuckler to be. If youve read about the Combat Revamp youll know that stun damage will not be the end all be all of damage types in PvP anymore. Also what kind of DoT, AP, wound %. Things like that, that youd like to see in a knuckler.
My ideal knuckler would deal electric damage. The basis for electric damage would be an item that charges the blade that on contact would deliver an electric shock to the target. It would be AP0 and have no DoT.
A clost second would be a poison tipped knuckler that did acid damage. This knuckler would deal an action pool DoT be AP0 and have a moderate wound percentage chance.

I like the electric knuckers idea, however i do think that AP1 needs to stay. For everyone who will say that this will unbalance combat for TKM's,most comp armor has high resist to electric damage anyways.

Hey all,
My personal dream wep for us would be Shurikens!!! Yes the Pointed stars that could be thrown at yer target from say 10-20m so we have somethin to chase the runnin B--tards down with,lol.........something with around 200 damage 5 second delay maybe even consumable, and most important, NOT Kinetic dam.

Heat is for Commando's, and stun is for Fencers. The beautiful thing about damage types is that any profession can use them. Not just a select one.

Well, pikemen use vibro lances, and we TKA use vibro knucklers. I assume if a weapon has vibro in it, then it does the same type of damage.
Correct me if I'm wrong...

Vibro just means theres a motor in the weapon that makes the blade vibrate giving it an added kick.

Yeah, well, what's added to a vibro lance to give it electrical damage?

id like to see blast/energy knucklers. Energy knucks could have the same graphical effect that the ns energy lance has.
On the other hand, having Blast dmg knucklers makes sense, you look at a hammer, it has a flat surface, real life knucks have a flat surface.
Altho, this post has prolly been a waste of time seeing as the devs take no notice of us whatsoever.
