Another reason I am glad I am an Architect... because I love crafting, not just seeking cash to get my holocron fix and super-grind my way to my next master.

I'm just curious, but how many of you are going to do the Force trials when publish 10 goes live? I'm definately going to do them. In fact, I can't wait.

After reading about force sensitive skills, that are profession specific, this may be interesting... might be kinda fun to have some ranger specific force sensitive skills

I'm definitely interested.


Finally the potential to be Jedi without suffering through months of grinding and boredom. Some people I know endorse the current system over the new quest-based one.


Rationale:


Number 1: (This one I like..) "It forces you to get to know more about the game, to experience new things that you might not have otherwise."


Debunk: Most people grind and drop, and never actually bother to try to learn to play the profession. The friend that said this was a true exception to the rule, and actually kept Weaponsmith after mastering it, rather than going back to Rifleman.


Number 2: "The grinding system keeps the Jedi population from exploding because only the truly dedicated will go through the grind."


Debunk: Reality. The Jedi numbers are massive. Yes, it's quite possible that they'll skyrocket once the Quest system comes out, but the fact of the matter is, anyone who wants to be Jedi enough is going to be, regardless of the system. The only way to counteract that is to artificially limit the Jedi populations, which would be a bad, bad business decision for SOE, because denied the possibility of Jedi-hood, many, many people would quit, or never start playing.



Personally, I'm looking forward to it. A friend of mine mentioned (as a fault) that if you want to preserve your first character, you have to work from the beginning as a Jedi.. which I'm thinking is more a bonus. It will help slow down the Jedi growth, as many people grow attached to their primary and don't want to get rid of their professions (even those who grind typically do it with the intention of going back to their original template once it's done) and secondly because it will give me more things to do in game, and that's never a bad thing.

I have faith that the devs will make the Jedi missions impossibly hard until enough people complain that they can't do them. I do plan on getting as many Force Sensitive skills that I can, but I don't think I will take the trials.

I just wonder they the actual chances are that a Ranger/Rifleman could finish all 24 missions to complete the 24 force sensitive blocks. I wonder if one you will have to be armorsmith and all that junk. Just some odd form of grinding. Instead of grind then drop a profession you will grind, complete mission then drop. Is that how its gonna be?

Yeah i agree, im gonna blast through them to get my pilot set up too, dont realy care how hard they are. I can take a high difficulty level, however i refuse to do anything that will ruin my gaming experience and others (i.e holo-grind)

Why wasnt the jedi revamp , jedi quest system, and combat reblance all done at that the same time? Would make better sense to combine all 3 and have them workin properly so that jedi doesnt seem unbalanced for months while we wait for the combat reblance?


Maybe because they have no ideal what they want to do in the combat reblance?

Hi all, im not here to rant and rave and shout NERF NERF NERF, but hey i feel there are a few issues that need to be a addressed. First and foremost, is the new lightsaber dmg and attack rate. Ok i saw this jedi dueling everyone in coronot and didnt take a scratch. Now that would be fine if he was the leader of the council or a high ranking official. But this guy was a PADAWAN. i know jedi are suppose to be strong and elite, and i know it takes forever to grind, but realistically you have to think about things. First a master of any proffesion (combat) should be able to do alright. Now im on the tarq server and some of the best, BEST duelers on our server were getting dominated by this jedi padawan. I mean the fight was 10 secs long tops. Although this rebalance is nice, and im glad you guys are getting what you deserve for all the hours and work you put in, but i mean this is ridiculus. I know its a "jedi" but hey a Master riflemen and master fencer, should be able to take down a padawan. Now if anyone says the lightsaber should cut him in half blaaa, then shut up, cause this is a rpg, go play jedi acadamy. in this game dmg has to be put in perspective, a training saber should not shred threw everyone. Although im glad that jedi isnt broken anymore, i recomend fixing some proffesions asap to be able to at least keep up with yall. I mean the bounty hunters, think about the bountyrs, /cry over broken proffesion that could would be incap because a jedi could like fart in his general dirrection and take out him quicker then lightning. anyways i hope you enjoy your new proffesion, but Devs cmon put rebalance quickly, cause this just isnt right. Now let the flames begin which im sure there will be plenty of
