Actually, they all have there good points.

Kung-fu is based on powerless and is the most 'beautifull' one. Karate is based on stun and does the dmg, I thought. Aikido is based on powerless and enraged.

Best thing you can do is to combine two.

Edit: Mm since your new I doubt you have enough memory to combine two. It's around lvl 30 you can combine things I thought, aah :smileysurprised: I forgot! SMILEY

Yes, Kungfu is more speed, about the middle in strength and does powerless. Karate is more for power, is more for strength and does stun attacks, and unbalance. Aikido is not very strong but it keeps your enemy in interlock, its also mostly grabs. It was first said that it was the sidekick to the other 2.

But hey, its also how you like to fight, and the style. I use all 3 from time to time.

I would say Karate is more offensive technically. The difference isn't that huge, so you should just pick the one you like the most and are going to have more fun with until you are high enough in level to combine 2 of them. I think Karate is the most mediocre of the 3. Kung Fu is my first favorite and Akido is a close second, because they look cool. For me the question is which one is less boring to look at...lol. You really shouldn't analyze them too much until you are ready to PVP and by then you should be able to go back and forth.

I think each type goes with each damage type:

Kung Fu - Speed

Karate - power

Akido - grab

Each one also has abilities which effect the opponet and sometimes yourself. Akido effects yourself most of the time. Karate Causes stun with most attacks. Kung Fu has more damaging moves in the begining while the others have better moves later on(I was told this from a friend so it could be right or wrong). I go Karate mostly since Power is suppose to be the best tactic if you want to get threw an enemies toughness.

Well I personally like Aikido for PvP, Tomo Nage (30 Seconds enrage) is a hacker killer and Reverse Catch Slam rolls higher than most melee moves.

I use Karate for missions and Pandora Box type of things, this style has the greatest damage and most moves have a chance to stun your opponent, it also has the highest rolling melee move after cheap shot which is side kick combo.

Kung Fu is good for duels and lowbies considering that you get powerful moves like Misdirect Punch (blind) and Machinegun Fist (powerless) at lower lvls. Extreme Falling kick is pretty much a Catch Slam except it also causes disarmed and it doesn't roll as high.

its expensive but i have learnt to master all 3, i find that karate/kung-fu is good combo, karate for dmg and kung-fu for downgrades. Mind you if u combine karate with alikido u can keep em in interlock and dmg.

yeah lvl 30 ul be able to... hard life isnt it :smileyhappy:

good luck
