A MBH/MCM doesn't do enough damage with his weapon not to need them. Sure they don't seem like much but you are running out of force from healing. Without those dots, you won't be healing nearly as often from a MBH, MCM.

ok sounds like a good point. but if the jedi just runs he will get away, not like the old days. 10 sec and your dead.

That's why FOTM is MBH/MCM/Pistoleer xxx4. So you can root them if they try to run.

I really don't want to leave the game but this time the no talent a$$ clowns they call devs have gone too far so I think its time to take a long needed break from SWG. I don't really want to go but unless this issue is fixed before i get home from work tonight, which it won't, I'm taking a break from SWG for a while. The word maintenance seems to have different meaning for the devs than the rest of us. When youtake your car in for scheduled maintenance don't usually get it back with flat tires. And no none of you can have my stuff, its already spoken for. I plan to log in when I get home and check on things and if it ain't fixed then farewell for a while.
Legead wishes you well and hopes to see you soon
It won't be fixed when you get home. Earliest is possibly tomorrow, but I doubt that. They will need time to figure out how the free maintenance "fix" unhooked the CM state effects. Bank on sometime early next week.

Combat medic is not completely useless...i dont even use DOTs sometimes, I have it mainly for traumatize, elec drain and thyroid rupture.
DOTs I usually dont bother wasting mind with unless im against a defender type

how did you last this long? If you're quitting because of a bug like this I really want to know why you haven't quit during the other 1000's of times similar bugs have popped up.

I almost have. But most of the bugs I've encountered didn't realy effect my game play like this does. Half my CM skills are useless and I'm still working up the remaining skill points into Carbine. I was all excited about playing CM since I've never been master CM before and then they ruin it the day after i reach MCM. It actually makes me want to cry. If it had happened say 1 month after i got MCM i wouldn't be so pissed cuz I'd just start another grind but I haven't even been able to play MCM yet
I spent so much money of enhancers and foods and new clothes and stuff. Someone please tell me this is all a dream lol

that works for a short time but the jedi still gets away in the end if he wants to

That's obvious, they were tweaking something related to DOTS and they completely broke it. Just thankfull they permadots don't do damage, or we would have even bigger problems.
