you are so pwnd you can't even speak






Fixed...Jedi is not a difficult profession to grind, as so many have done it while AFK on Kashsyyk. So don't even try and give me that whole Jedi grinding BS. The only actual hard part of a Jedi grind is doing the village, which in itself is just simply time consuming and not difficult at all.






Wanna compare that grind to this grind? check this out then, i grinded my jedi in 4 months, in the wild, all alone all the time, that was long before CU. By that time they were grinding cm or doc by healing afk tumblers in days again. There you go, done. Talking about being a BH? did you tried being a full ranged BH pre CU? Against 700k+ marks? No, Yes? Feeling me now?



Anyways non of those matter now. I think CM is perfect right now the way it is. Not over powered at all. Yes jedi healing is screwed and MasterHealer is broken mostly and worthless when you compare it to a MD or a MCM.



The jedi crying about mcm? Well don t get pissed about everything you read here i would say. When someone says JEDI and starts flaming we got our share too while we don t deserve it.



Well anyways the most important thing, Everybody should relize that we are playing the game all together, 1 Dev Team changes something and it turns out to be bad we all get screwd and have these arguments here.


I hope they fix DOT thing ASAP. they came out with a hot fix, didn t work, but at least we know they are working on it.



Ah btw, someone said in a message that They did more stuff for jedi then the other professions, yes the thing called jedi got screwd over and over and over and over again since publish 10 (village comes in). Actually the whole thing started with the holo grind but no need to go there.


Have a nice day and be safe.

I've seen posts on the Jedi forums from 3 viewpoints



1 - Nerf CM to hell cos they keep beating Jedi.


2 - CM are perfectly balanced, when played right can give the most enjoyable battles there are.


3 - CM are a joke, and easily taken down in 2 minutes by the FOTM template.



My suggestion, ignore the calls for nerfs. I think enough nerfing has happened in this game already.








<Looks at amount of posts calling for Nerfs on BH's in Jedi Profession Threads......Looks at amount of post calling for Nerfs on Jediin the Bounty Hunter Profession Threads...>


Hmmmm...Looks to be about the same amount...


Welcome to SOE, the world of unannounced "Stealth" nerfs...If it IS fixed (DoT's that is), I doubt they will ever be the same damage as before.


Keep crying nerf on other professions and all professions will be useless soon.


BTW...Have a Jedi and BH/CM toon, but go ahead and flame me if you want...lol.

what are you talking about? are you suggesting that a bounty hunter actually may have to HUNT(!!!) just take some time, follow them and watch them, if their aura goes off hit them with a kd, critical, torso, critical and they will be near dead if you have a good gun. all CM/BH does IMO is ruin the hunting aspect of BH by making a CM/MBH able to stand toe to toe with any jedi

(btw, before i start getting flamed, i dont think CM should be nerfed, but i also hate people who are too lazy to actually try and be viable with something other than FOTM...i used to be MCarb/MCM, but dropped it for BH, and im one of a very few on chilastra who isnt MCM/MBH)





MCM isnt as easy as you people make it out to be ... its tough .. its tough being that close to a jedi and duking it out ... you gotta have steady nerves ...


i had my other builds ... including pistols and rifles ... and let me tell ya .. they were both 100 times better for PVE and pretty much everything else in the game than my current master CM template ...


the only reason i went MCM is because of the high %'s that when you pull a mission these days its gonna be a master defender .. give me a non FOTM temp that has a chance against THAT FOTM temp and we'll talk ...



i see jedi crying over MCM everywhere these days .. but if they want to solve the MCM problem .... tell their buddies not to go master defender FOTM .. and you wont see ANY MCM's .. MCM is not the type of proffession a bounty hunter wants to be .. we are FORCED to be it ... you think a bounty hunter wants to be a combat medic? you thinnk any of us when buying the game dreaming of being BH pictured ourselves in silly padded suits .. throwing poison packs at people!? id rather go ranged all the way .. crap id rather go COMMANDO all the way ... but we cant .. too many jedi are FOTM master defenders ... and no other proffession can deal with em even remotely

Any Bounty Hunter can Kill any Jedi. It's really very simple. You are meant to hunt jedi and take them out when they are at their most vulnerable. Not charge in head first and expect to win. If an Bounty Hunter does this they should be dispatched very easily. The problem is that most bounty hunters are not bounty hunters but people that want to pvp. If you want to pvp then go overt if oyu want to hunt adn use cunnign tactics to take down your prey then become a bounty hunter.



No Bounty hunter shoudl be able to charge up to a fully templated jedi and expect to win but that is waht you all want. I say to hell with all of you with this mentality. It's is not in line with what a bounty hunter truley is.

I was in a group the other day and we had a jedi who was attacked by a BH....well the noobs in the group went to go watch and root for the jedi...myself and two others continued with the missions....45 minutes later the battle was still going on and basically all that has happened is the use of many a spice, food and whatever else PvP people use these days. My question is what is the point to that?!? 45 minutes for a PvP fight?? *puke* 5 minutes is probably too long. And no I wouldn't call skill knowing which spice, food and any other non combat move thing peeps use for PvP. I think all the additions have taken away something and I'll be glad if they make spice harder to get (proposed Smuggler revamp). They need to let professions duke it out with good ol fashion skill i.e. - knowing your character and moves that will win you a fight, not which spices/food will stack soyou have food/spice icons underyour character name longer thenyour name itself!! Think Street Fighter or Mortal Combat (damn I'm old). Until something changes PvP is pointless to me

P.S. I guess anything is better then back in the day when you could be TKM and just KD/Dizzy to win a fight....but 45 minutes duels is not much better - ok, enough belly aching

let me also state .. i have changed a lot since i made this post ... i still retain the dislike in padded armor ( mainly cuz im trandoshan and i look HORRIBLE in padded armor) ... but other than that .. i have grown to LOVE the MCM proffession ..i love it ... i think i will hold onto it .. and ive thought about giving up bounty hunter .... so im not MCM anymore because of bounty hunting or master defenders... its just a fun proffession to play.. with great moves .. and im not one of those "PVP'er" types, i didnt choose MCM to go around beating kids in duels all day .... i like PVE...i just love the proffesiion and it just makes a lot of sense to me in combat the way the proffession and its moves are played ....and yes if you know what your doing its nice for pvp too...


im here to stay as an MCM and thank the devs for making such an awesome proffession ....

I've done my fair share of both CM and Jedi post CU. My primary is an ex-cm gone Jedi, and my alt is now a pistoleer/cm.

I have to say, while my full temp Jedi (MLS/4040 healer/0240 defender/3004 enhancer) stands exactly no chance against any BH/CM that has hit me, the Combat Medic profession is not to blame. Combat Medic is perfectly balanced against all other professions in my opinion (maybe thyroid is a little off now that doc and jedi speed buffs got the nerf), and fills it's role perfectly in PvE, ie support.

The problem the Jedi have vs BH/CM seems to come from two primary sources.


1: 7-8k resist full ADK'd 75% AB resist RIS armor. Very sick and every BH has it. Now that Jedi have no way to improve their sabers (wow, another 'good' pearl), their damage is less than impressive as a rule. The only professions I outdamage in general are TKM, fencer, and pistoleer. Take away my armor break and the most I can hit for is MAYBE 400 with improved power hit when I have my BH KD'd. Now add his 56 sac puped weapon, attack speed twice mine (4 times if he thyroid bursts me), the fact that I'm on fire, poisoned, diseased, bleeding, slowed, sometimes rooted, and my 33 force cost saber is slowly chopping up my force bar... I stand exactly no chance. Plus don't forget that half my fights START with me KD'd and debuffed while I'm loading in a starport.


2: FRS is off. Sure, a good BH can kill a paddy 9 times out of 10, but I would imagine the odds would be worse against a Knight or Guardian. The best we have now is full temp paddies, if the odds stay the same when FRS comes back, then we have a problem.


I run now. I always get away, so I have no reason to complain. I prefer the PvE aspects of the game, and I don't PvP anymore. If I stayed to fight though I could not win against today's BHs because while my force bar is slowly ticking down, their mind and action remain peak, and I have nothing that can damage them.

Also don't forget that Jedi have no reason to fight. When we 'win', we don't win anything. When we lose, we not only lose xp, we also get the PvE insurance rules, and our stuff decays. When a BH loses it's back to the terms to pull a new victim. Even on the rare occasion the odds are in my favor, I have nothing to gain, so what's the point of my staying?

CM is not to blame, CM is fine. My complaints stem from 75% AB resist (50 should be cap, especially on 8k energy resist armor) and the lack of powerful Jedi above Padawan. It makes sense that a Padawan would need to run, but if this keeps up when FRS is on, and Knight vs BH is a 1:10 fight, then something about the system seriously needs tweaking.

Just like to say a couple of things, this is not really an issue with MCM as far as I can see but more of an issue with MBH/CM vs Jedi, from my experience from both sides as a Mrifles/CM and a jedi I can safely say that a CM/BH with amour break res armour and a good weaponand the correct use of foods and an 'indestructible droid'will win against a jedi every time if they know what they are doing. You get a lot of so called 'leet' jedi saying that they handle MCM/BH with ease, what you got to realise is that a lot of people dont like to admit when theyget beaten and spout on about how they can kill anyone they meet! They are talking bull and they know it.


This is not a whine at all as I admire the MBH/CM temp as one that is a pure jedi killer temp, its all in there.. high damage, combat speed debuff, movement debuff, mind debuff, state debuff, fire dot, poison dot, paralyse along with the BH own skills too.. bleeds, kd,critical, etc


The minute I encounter one of these temps now and the debufs start pouring in I have stopped even bothering to fight as I know it will result in a healling war which I can never win. Thats even after using a holo. Think you may find soon that the FOTM jedi templates MLS/MDef will soon be retemplating to add an escape option into the builds, ie FR, Statis or cloke as any jedi that does not have at least one of these is easy prey to any decent BH/CM.


I really dislike nerfs on any profession and would rather in fact see fixes and boosts. I think that we all need to understand that ever since the CU and before there have been some major balancing flaws between professions which seems to be really slow in being rectified. Its also natural for people to gravitate towards the strongest templates especially the BH profession whose task is to kill jedi so we cant blame the BH for picking an option that the devs have put there. I just hate all the animosity between profession espeicially the jedi BH ones as it spills over into all other professions where BH choose to take their abilities from.


From a selfish point of view as a jedi I would love to have some kinda counter to the CM debuffs (please dont say force speed please as its crap as it stands!) but I have to make do with what I have as this isnt the case. I guess the devs are really busy with the new expansion atm but I can feel a few balancing changes coming in the near future and I hope they are not nerfs, but rather boosts to certain proffs as it would make for a more diverse range of proffs. Seriously as a jedi the only temp that has hunted me in the past 4 months is the BH/CM variety and it gets a little stale. Maybe by boosting some other proffs will give the BH more choice and get rid of this boring heal wars thing!
