Thread: Stealth Nerf
Returning to the informative nature of this post for a moment.
The costs have indeed increased quite heavily - whether it is one profession or across the whole board, it would have been nice to have this mentioned in the notes. An NPC boss mark with 35k HAM may take twice as long to finish off as a result of this change.
Is it just me though? Or have foods and buffs seemingly had their effects increased too. Can anyone confirm this?
Can't say about food but i agree its taking longer to take out the elite marks that it did under pub21.

So, in a nutshell...
Group play just got very unattractive with the group XP reduction
Solo play just got a lot harder with the increased special costs, meaning DPS is lowered and risk elevated.
I really don't care all that much one way or the other about this, but I do wish they'd have tackledmore of the major profession and core systems issues.
I guess the reality is that their top priorities are vastly different than ours.

Action cost increase means nothing as any good bh worth a grain of salt uses sac pups in his main gun. (rifle) However, everyone needs to be VERY concerned about a healing % cost increase as it will directly affect our ability to kill full templates. Can someone please test the exact %mind costfor bacta toss, spray and shot? I would take at most 5 minutes of your time.
I never use SAC pups against NPC's...so it means something to me. My rifle is at 83 SAC at stock, which wasn't an issue prior to this patch.

Understood, I appologize. NPC's are certainly a different issue, I was speaking about Jedi marks.
No apology needed...
It wasn't like you said "Hey you big stupid noob moron, your SAC sux, use a PuP, noob."
I do really need to get a SAC pup on there full time...no reason not to at this point.
