Not to get off topic but im almost to novice BH ( I went smuggler and didnt like it) and today I got to see just how much they nerfed Underhand shot...here's the senerio: We Just Put a out PA hall on Gorathand the spot we picked was by some other guys home and he starts screaming and throwing a tantrum. So I go over and start dancing in his house( antagonizing him)while he's doin whatever he's doing and then left. He sends me a tell that he wants to challenge me to a duel, so I replied for him to meet me outside. Now this guy wants to duel me, but wants me to challenge him ( so he can get the first hit obviously...and I knew thats what he was trying to do). So after I told him he was theone who challenged me not vive-versa and thenhe challenges and runs off as I accept ( I gave him time to run about 20-30 m). Hit him with a healthshot and a couple 500 dam bs2's ( his armor probally absorbed half that as it took around 4 hits to incap him). So I glance at my HAM bars and see that I never took any dammage, so I open my combat chat and see he was useing Underhandshot and he missed 5 times and never hit me once during the duel. Did they really nerf Underhand this bad or did this guy just not know how to fight? I was useing a Fwg5 and I think he was useing a Laser Carbine

Underhand shot seems to be fairly inaccurate at lower levels, in particular in close quarters where carbine has a real tendency to miss alot more due to some heavy targetting penalties. Now if you hit him with an eyeshot early in the fight, or before he tried to underhand you, that adds to his targetting penalties. Hence, he missed you enough times for you to finish him off. It could also depend on what kind of carbine he was using - if he was using a laser carbine, I believe their ideal range is quite a bit further out than the usual carbine so his close quarters negatives might have been quite a bit higher. Hard to say exactly though.

Can the devs please fix the investigation missions? I tracked a mark for 2 hours and when i found him he was white and unattackable. This is just unacceptable!!!! I waste 4 hours a day of my play time on this crap. IS THIS WORKING AS INTENDED? The only thing it is doing is driving up my bloodpressure. If i have a heart attack I am sueing SOE! heh


I demand this crap be fixed! Im sure everyone else feels the same way.

thing is the devs claimed they fixed this.


What they ended up fixing was now other peoples marks will randomly attack you. One nailed me zoning into the shuttle.

That is true. Also I am well aware of the fact this is a known issue. Thats why my subject is For the love of god. They know its an issue. They havent fixed it. I dare any dev to pick a high end inv mission and complete it. Its not the mark thats hard, its tracking, waiting on shuttles, and not being able to attack the mark half of the time. This just flat out sucks.

lol.. that happened to me the other night too... which is doubly strange, since my marks never seem to aggro me.


the ultimate thing that sucks about that was that i've killed several in self-defense, just to be bitched at by the mission taker for killing his target...

I was fighting my mark earlier today and just as he is about to die, another "him" spawns. Same name, but different race and everything. It was very odd.

Can you people quit jacking my game up? First I stopped doing Kashyyyk quests for all the bugs, now my space missions are bugged, my alt's POB ships are screwed and the targeting lead cursors are off(this part has been confirmed by over 20 pilots on Bria and Tarq including 6 ACE's)...I don't ask for much, just to GET WHAT I PAY FOR! <<<or IS this what I pay for? Spending more money WAITING to play my game than I do actually playing? I understand that the coding and synchronizations can be VERY difficult, but for gods sake QUIT PLACING "UPGRADES" until you get the BROKEN STUFF FIXED. In almost ANY other job you people would be in the unemployment line by now


I struggle hard to retain reasons to keep my accounts active, and with each "UPGRADE" I lose another reason.





It could be worse...we could be forced to play cookie cutter professions with so few skills we could fit them all on 1 action bar...errr...wait...


- I support a rollback and keeping & balancing the old combat system.
...and making SWG a better place to be.
Your voice counts!

But most of all, bring back the Creature Handlers!
