Nerfing Root is going to happen but it's not going to change how a Jedi uses it currently. A Jedi uses it to finally catch up to the kiter, that will not change, however, what will change is a Ranged player soloing highend mobs and creating instances where they can perma root a single player.
This my friends is going to be nerfed. Oh, and I do find it funny how when the shoe is on the other foot people will say "Stop calling for nerfs" when previous posts were "Nerf Jedi, I should be able to solo one"
so what is the difference between a jedi rooting someone while riflemen blow him away from 80m or a pistoleer doing it?

At the end of the day, there are enough Jedi in every server that you should only be as powerful as everyone else. Can't hide behind starwars continuety after being the ruin of it.

one thing your forgetting wookie is that jedi healing cost's a hell of a lot more sp wise than to be added to a normal template than a jedi to get 4000 healer
the only profession that should be outhealing 4000doctor or CM is master healer based on sp useage, because that's what the game eventually comes down to, how you spread your skill point's, personally if someone invested the sp's into master healer than i see no reason why they shouldn't be able to spam 1500heals ever 3 seconds at almost no action/mind cost(still force cost though) though a dabbler who uses a lousy 28point's into healer should not be given the ability to heal as one who has spent 63pts (4000doctor or cm)

except that:
healer 4xxxx= costs 28 skill points
cm4xxx= costs 78 skill pts
anyways keep playing kid mode cause you know you can't hang on a normal toon
Ok I'd like to address these two statements. Reason why it is not valid to compare skill point cost for skills for a non-Jedi and Jedi is simple, we have to choose skills from specific professions just to get what a non-Jedi gets automatically. For instance, armor or any defensive abliity. It has been stated by the devs if we want defense, we have to get DEfender. Now if we are going to start comparing skill point costs as both have you suggested, then non-Jedi are giong to have to start spending skill points in a single profession to get their defense, offense, and healing. Only then will it be valid to say it only costs 28 skill points for our healing, you have to look at the whole picture not just one side.
The day we get everything in one tree like non-Jedi do is the day you can complain how much it costs to get healing lol.

This thread belongs in the pistoleer forum. Nuff said, no need to continue this discussion.

Damn crybaby, makes me sick that when we finally get a decent move to work with, you automatically want it taken from us. Gee thanks for letting me chew on the bone the devs threw us for a little.
Your whine post is the only crying i see here. Sorry root is the only thing that makes you a decent player, and from the sounds of it, not even that decent

I agree, Im not a fan of root in any sence. Makes for AFK xping, lame PVP tactics, and cookie cutter templates. The ability is too powerful. Nerf it across the board.
