Thread: Ummm guys. I don't mean to complain but I'm getting tired of getting one shotted by a flamethrower.

I'd like to suggest that we put up a stick on top with the title:
Known Bugs: Flamethrower does tripple damage in PvP (FT 3xPWN vs Rifle).
This way people who have serious complaints and who want to be constructive about it, see at once, that the Commando Community is aware of a serious bug.
I think this is a serious problem with the Flamethrower, beause it distorts the perception of the victims.
The flamethrower needs a bug fix, and not a nerf.
LLC is just as powerup as the Flamethrower. I don't see the issue.
My Commando friend and I (I'm a BH) dueled and we were about equal, he just played his cards better.

Excellent point! Hope our correspondent is reading this and acts on it.
Oh, do be quiet you muppet!
Let me tell you about a little encounter with a gImp "bounty hunter" last night.....
I left Anchorhead to go check my harvestors, now because Id been fighting beforehand, I was overt. My fault, I know.
Just over the hill I spotted an imp heading my way in a hurry, I was carrying my new flamer at the time.
I hit the flame1 and pray.....
MISS!

Dead!
Im sure he would have kept spamming the same key for the 15 seconds it would have taken for my flamer to recharge if he could. I sent him a /tell after congratulating him on his use of fantastic skill and one button.
And....
You now have a functional LLC, which does rather well also and is a **edit** sight faster than a flamer......
So in short
Wind you neck in!
What the heck -TAKEDOWN-???
Are you on a one-man crusade to renerf the Commando profession just because you want your LLC to be the best? I mean, ok...the damage we do is CONSIDERABLY MORE than what us commando's are normally used to (instead of 300 max damage, now we're pumping out 3000) but come on!
Ok, our high damage may not last long, but can you just sit back and shut up for once? Myself, as well as numerous other commando's here have suffered for SO LONGand now we're finally doing damage that is what was intended for us...and you want the developers to kick us back to square one? Whatever.....
Anyway, I'm hoping the developer who is working on our profession makes it so that players have to go farther up the commando tree to get the higher damage dealt. that way, dabblers really have to commit in order to be "uber".
And yes, I AM a Commando. But I've quit the grind so I can enjoy the different aspects of SWG now.
I AM A COMMANDO THAT NOW DOES COMMANDO DAMAGE!!!! ALL COMMANDO'S REPRESENT!!!!
Okay guys, to make this a bit more serious:
He is right in that point that the damage is sometimes ridiculous! My ,max to date is 15,006 (in the combat window), and 7800 over head.
My average is 10,000 (in the combat window) and 5600 over head.
everystime used Flame Single 2.
This is alot! BUT (and this is a HUGE but), we are still below, dps wise, to rifleman and pistoleer. I group with them alot and it is a fact that they deal more dammage than we do. Only difference: we deal it in one huge hit and then pause endlessly. It takes me roughly 10 secs to shoot again on Flamesingle 2. everytime combat spam says 10.000 on average., so i come down to 1.000dps. Taken a friend of mine and a DX2 as a comparate excemple, he deals 1.500 dmg with stoping shot every second. That is 1.500dps. Furthermore he can deal that amount of damage on a distance of 64m whereas i am stuck to 17m.
Every songle one crying nerf has to be insane! We are still not on par with the other classes, so why nerf us?

P.S.: Time it took me to solo an AT-ST: 76 secs, number of times died: 1
Rebels and Imperials shouldn't want us to be nerfed, cos if we get nerfed Rebels have nothing against AT-ST's and Imperials would get their AT-ST's nerfed also.
You knowthe nerf cries aregetting ridiculous, when someone challenges you to a duel, but says "no HW, no DOT's, no KD's, no Special's, no Pets... NO NOTHING, we're just gonna play nice using normal shots"
I was like "Forget it man"
People don't realise, we aren't that good at PvP, sure we are "good", but we aren't the best, BH's are the best because of the simple nature of their profession; tracking down sentient lifeforms and killing them, much the same as PvP.
We however specialise at taking down Monster Vehicles like AT-ST's or huge creatures like Krayt's. Everyone has come to accept BH's for what they are, but we're lagging behind everyone else in terms of nerfs, acceptance etc.
Perhaps the only way to have Commando be powerful where we are supposed to be is make some of our weapons only affective against PvE???
LLC needs the target to be knockdown in order for it to deal a lot of damage.
Knockdown now has a 30 second timer. You know the nerf that came with this patch that made KD useless.
In order for a BH to kill someone with LLC, he still needs to do two shots. Fireknockdown, then LLC.
FT does 1 shot kills. Devs do not want professions doing one shot kills. You guys might not be overpowered in PvE but you guys are surely overpowered in PvP.
Lastly I can level 3 Master commando by the time you can level 1 master BH so don't make arguments about time.
Takedown:
First:
Please try to use english language and complete sentences in your posts. (no, you don't)
Second:
I don't know which LLC you are using, but the one my guildmate's using, deals almost the same damage as my Flamethrower at considerably less speed. DPS wise he keps me standing in the rain.
Third:
Your whining is almost unbearable. Face the facts, you won't be THE uber character of all times. There are things where you are better and things where you are wrorse. Learn to live with it.
Fourth:
Even if you would need a knockdown followed by a second shot to kill a character, you still would be faster than everyone else. A BH can easily knock me down, after i hit my special key and before my shot goes off. Talk abaout balance again.
Conclusion:
Your post is BS! You are a whining 9 year old, oppressed by its father and ignored by it's mother. You have no friends in RL and you actually don't even have a real life. You try to compensate your lack of self esteem through power over others in a virtual community. Seeing this status threatened make you go wild.
have a nice day, your words are worthless.

Why is that every a$$hat BH has to go to other professions boards and make stupid comments? Can you tell me what made you do this? I have seen your kind all over the carbineer and pistoleer board. If the lot of you put half the energy youspendtrolling boards into posting class changes and fixes for your profession you would be the perfect class.
But... It is easier to complain right?
In the future when you feel the need to post more complaints please think of this first.
We do not care.
