Please sign up here so the Devs can see how badly we consider ourselves to be screwed.

/sign.

Personally, I didn't think our profession could get any worse. WRONG!!! I am quite disgusted. The only thing we had going for us was broken, and they decided to fix that and only that. I am going to wait maybe a day or two to see if NovaMarine can get us an immediate answer/fix. But if nothing happens quickly, I'm finished waiting for Carbineer to be fixed. I'm not waiting another 4-5 months for a possible fix. I'm going pistoleer now.

Added :
I just want to add that I am one of the people that has been a carbineer since day 1. I mastered weaponsmith on the side just so I could make my own set of nice carbines. I have been promoting this profession all the way. I wanted to be a "different" combat class. But with this patch, I realize that the most important problems DEVs are willing to fix are ones which involve supposed "EXPLOITS". It is considered an exploit for a carbineer to use CS1 repeatedly, resulting in a pinned target. However true this is, it has no different outcome than the dizzy/KD ability. Also, it should say something for Carbineers that we were READY AND WILLING to let this be fixed BUT AT THE SAME TIME THEY FIX OUR OTHER SPECIALS. Show me a thread on another profession saying "oh yeah, this skill we have is too powerful, please take it away" It was considered an exploit for people to bleed a target and drive off on their bikes to kite. I don't see how this is a major issue considering this is one of the most time consuming way to kill something. Personally, I have used it, but I would rather just get buffed and kill the NPC in 1/10th of the time.

I'll be dropping it when I get home from work.

I'm discusted that time went into adding a timer to CS2 when it didn't even KD in the first place. I actually agree with the timer being there but for god sake do not waste your time, my time with the nerf to a special that doesn't even work.

High ham costs, broken specials, poor choice of weapons, most generic class now. nope can't justify hanging onto that.

I was having a BLAST as carbineer, till I tried playing today. I don't really PvP, so I don't know about what kinda problems it was giving in that area, but in PvE, the chargeshot was essential to being able to solo. I can't wait to get master (i'm too far in now to NOT finish) so I can drop what has become useless. I think I'll go try a melee profession next so I can handle multiple opponents again. Great job "fixing" the "crowd control" class. Carbineers can't take on more then one mob at a time, but I see TK's, Fencers and swordsmen taking out entire lairs. I'd love to kick the dev responsible right in the grill.
