I'm just so very confused about what happened. I mean, commandos area pretty knowledgeable group, and went into testing as an organized group with their correspondant. I just cannot believe that ALL of the commando testers would have missed AoE doing NO damage! That's just impossible.


Now our SEAs work but our weapons don't. Yikes!


Keep fighting for us, Mighty StarNick. I passed my one-year mark as a commando recently myself.

Shortly after launch though, it completely broke into what you see now. Also during this time we were fighting to get the Proton Rifle fixed as well, it got a hotfix, started working, and now is reportedly not firing *again*.

These are not new issues, and we've been pushing for fixes in the twilight of the CU beta, and now beyond.





Can confirm it is not firing still. I try it on a daily basis hoping for a hot fix. Just taking up a slot in my inventory. It is equippable, the mods on the weapon (+10 to HW Speed and +10 to HW accuracy) do show up when equipped. The HW defense mods from equipping a HW do show up on your stats. You target something and hit a special and you get that "thunk" sound like a special borks or invalid target sound.

We have so many issues I generally clump stuff together...but for petes sake this is our only non-AoE weapon. Just put up a new thread in the corr forums, used your testimony Knightcrest, thanks

Btw, I tend to use a lot of quotes from here from you folks, especially when they're done in a nice, concise manner - it helps quite a bit

No problem... just want the thing I dropped 10mil on (Since jedi defenders seem to be the only way to drop Necrosis and not exploit) to actually fire! If they need to look at the toon to see what is wrong. This is the same account. Bishop on Shadowfire... also it did not fire before or after slicing.

That means you never use anything I say, doesn't it?

Thanks for putting in the good fight StarNick! I'm also getting kinda worn down by the lack of progress. The devs seemed to have a pretty admirable rate of bugfixes in the few days before and after the CU went live, but since then we've had not much action, and what has been done has mostly been on the CU-content front.

I can't imagine how frustrating it is to be a correspondent, the person the devs themselves designate to collect and filter all the opinions of the screaming masses (since they don't take the time to do it themselves), and then not hear a damn thing from them when we have such a large list of glaring problems.

I used to have fun doing some volunteer work at a specific place. A standard gag we used to play there was pretending to grumble and moan about being underappreciated, which would result in the boss/overseer type saying something to the effect of: "I know you're working hard, how does a 200% raise sound?" Well, I'll write up the papers authorizing your 200% raise StarNick (I doubt the SOE accountants will mind).

I'll also give you a /hearty_slap_on_the_back, we sure appreciate you doing your best to see that things get done!

Rather sad that in order to damage multiple mobs at once, we have to resort to a NON-AE weapon and use another profession's specials (Fan Shot, Spray Shot, etc.) to get the job done. Sure, we can land a flame DOT on multiple mobs, but they regen that as it burns in most cases.


I still love my aggro cannons though. They make pretty fire. My armor, on the other hand, HATES my aggro cannons.
