maybe.. that's what im hoping.. 5k dmg still seems a bit much in my opinion.. why in god's name did they make any metal work with the weapons?? i just dont see it at ALL.. unless they WANTED half the population to flock to commando for some reason..

I hit some guys DarkTrooper pet for 8856 points of damage tonight with Flame Single II. I was one shotting players left and right in Theed, and even if I didnt kill them outright with a special they would keel over 3 seconds later when the Flame DOT kicked in. I truely believe that no DEV actually picked up one of these Commando weapons on Test or their internal test server and fired one.


Because if they had this never would have gone live. Seriously folks, enjoy it while you can because were gonna get beat down with a nerf bat.

Hmm..I dont think so cause my friend just did FS2 to a I think a gnort and did about 3k. With my Heavy Acid Rifle AS2 I did a max of 4900 to a correlia butterfly drone. In PvP I wasnt one shooting anyone with either weapon(i'm 1,1,3,4). True Flame dot was good but no worse than someone putting on a Health shot,Mind shot,action shot bleed or heck Bounty Hunters own Flame Fireknockdown DOT.





Your right Riddler, I didn't do 8856 points of damage. That was a typo, I really did 8566 points of damage. This screen shot won't be there very long due to the fact that I don't have a real host. But there you go, we attacked a guy named D'ave he had 2 Dark Trooper pets. I darn near one shotted one of his pets with my 1st shot.

Ok if that pic is real the person must have had a Rifle and Prone right? or just had a Rifle and was knockeddown? and you just FS2 him right? Weakness to Fire also? I can see if you added up all those bonuses you could do that dmg.

I think tactics will catch up. I'm betting a master pistoleer could beat a commando 50% of the time if he learns to shoot and scoot and doesn't let the commando get into the sweet spot of the heavy weapons. The things a grossly inaccurate at long range and even worse now on a moving target.

Sometimes the commando will get lucky and get the one shot kill sometimes the pistoleer (or other professions will get missed that first shot and wreak havoc in the ensuing 15 seconds. We've only had 12 hours for the tactics to develope, give it time.

Also in responce to some others. All AP3 weapons are CHARGED weapons. None of the normal ones are. So while most types of new weapons are AP3, the three we use the most are still AP0.

i still cant believe it.. it doesnt take a genius to realize this is far too much dmg.. i hope im not alone on this.. why dont they just give every commando an atst and a graul..

Seriously, what the heck do I have to gain by faking a picture like that? That's a real pic and I am the only one that attacked the Dark Trooper. I did not do and other attacks on that trooper except for the Flame Single II. And the Trooper was not prone when I tagged him, I am not sure what weapon he was using at the time.

lol aim doesnt work with Heavy weapons or Special Heavy Weapons Not to mention its NOT easier to make a rocket launcher and commando's are getting gouge now heh Even when the prices do settle down rocket launcher will still cost a pretty penny and still be 50/50 accuracy at master lvl and very very limited chargest and down time on top of that a heavy HAM cost.

I'm sorry Kitrinia I just been tring all day on all types of mobs(giant peko's weak to fire,to rifle holding imps) and I never done these super high dmg shots. It must be a rare rare moment?

The damage is crazy but.....


If the person you're are trying to hit is moving instead of just standing there like a noob. I missed 5 times in a row.... miss = 0 damage


they missed alot too but they hit me more times then I hit them.


Second, flameone takes a long time to charge up. For an all or nothing shot thats so easy to avoid I don't find it any more overkill then an AT-ST ( and a commando is waaaay harder to get )

Fully specd in the Flame tree I was shooting off Flame Single II once every 8 seconds. And I had a pretty darn good accuracy with it. This was against players in full Stormtrooper armor moving and standing still.
