yeah it sucks. You'll have to learn to beat a full templated jedi with a ranged profession.





Well part of the CU comments was forget about what you used to do and learn everything all over again. I didn't like it in the begging but it is ok now.

Bh's aren't supposed to be melee fighters. Besides you could take MBH, and a melee prof along with some healing.





Why, because when Ralph "Holocron" Koster mismanaged the design of the combat system in this game he came up with that rule?


BH's should not even be a SP consumingprofession, they should be like politician, same goes with smuggler




I've said that for a long time....it should beit's ownfaction.

Good job SOE, more nerfs.


That's what the players wanted right? Completely water the prof into oblivion?

The bad part with having to be MBH (and Im not wanting to be a melee bh btw) is that your specials are all geared towards ranged. So while you can be a Master melee whatever your bh skills wont help you in the fight. I think that sucks because variety in hunters makes the game more interesting....now they want all BHs to be the same to match all the jedi.

If they never wanted dabblers, MBH should have been made the Jedi hunting qualification in the first place...





well if u was at fan fest, would of noticed there r differnt devs working on it, and since they came to sony that is what they wanted and thought was good for the game. and i agree




It is in fact.


The dedicated master should be the only one to hunt players.


Ranged is the weakness of Jedi's anyway.


It boils down to the fact that it was at inv 3 because BH used to also be a HUGE sp investment and it is not that anymore

Pre Pub 9 After Master Scout and Master Marksmen and Invest 3 you had 76 SP left for what ever

Post Pub 9, afte Master Marksmen, Scout 4xxxand invest 3 you had 126 SP left to do what ever

Post CU Marksment xxx4 Scout 4xxx BH 3xxx you have 176 SP to do what ever.

Post Pub 20 MBH, Marksmen xxx4 you have 129 to do what ever.


THIS IS A BALANCE PEOPLE TO THE PRE CU WAY OF THINGS. GET OVER IT!



P.S The color coding has no meaning what so ever.

Enjoy the nerfs





Why would you want to endorse nerfs on someones gameplay, i enjoy BHing up close and now that is gone..I would think of a jedi such as you to like Melee BH battles otherthan ranged.

That's too bad. I always liked the variety of seeing ranged and melee bh's.


The least they could do is pepper the bh trees with general melee accuracy/speed so that the melee guys would still get something out of it.


This mixed with the end of grouping on missions is just gonna equal one thing .. a lot of CM4000 bh's.
