Commando Archive

Thank you Garvin. This guy is starting to irriate me with these posts of complete nonsense babble.....I'm glad there are those of us to take the time and point out with undeniable facts how things really are.

Now I'm sure this guy will find some way to squirm around your answers and think he's still right, but I know that none of us really respect his opinion around here after posts like those.We know our problems, and unfortunately, it seems as if we are the only ones. Keep fighting guys.

Enough said.

*yawn*

Again I counter the nonsense that I know nothing about the commando profession by saying: "I was a Master Commando for nearly 3 months"

I hardly ever lost at PvP. I could apply multi-DOTs to multiple people using flame cone, then I could focus the DOTs with flame single. Using multiple flame DOTs, I could wipe out every single NPC at a faction base, solo without stopping to heal.

The logic behind the commando class is the same as teras kasi: If you get in melee range of a commando, you should be dead. Pistoleers kite. That's what they do. To say that a commando is weak because he cannot kite and is at the mercy of a kiter, is as nonsensical as a pistoleer complaining that his flamer doesn't do a lot of damage.

"A marksman can beat a commando."

Okay, that little quote is so outrageous that it speaks volumes of how the rest of your claims are exaggeration and flights of fancy. Isn't a commando also a master marksman?

Everyone rails against TH as if he wakes up in the morning, rubs his palms together and thinks: "I think I'll screw over our customers today. Muahahahaha". He doesn't. It never occurs to you people that your overpowered toys are being taken away and replaced with proper toys. You had a taste of godliness and now the party's over. You will just have to be content with being one of the most powerful professions in the game as opposed to being the most powerful powerful powerful profession in the game.

I have a question for you...have you ever warned someone not to do something but they did it anyway...and did what you feared would happen actually happen? We'll we commandos warned the Devs along time ago about a mistake we thought they were making...they made the mistake anyway...it took over 3months before a Dev finally came to us and said basically "opps...we made a mistake...we'll change it back"...

So yes...even the Godly Devs make mistake...and we'd be stupid to sit back and just watch them make another without trying to warn them...if we just sat back and took it, we'd really deserve what we get...We'd just like to avoid another 3 or 4 month of sitting back and waiting for a fix...

You claim that we are "one of the most powerful professions in the game"...Back that crap up...what are the statistics of wins and losses that Commandos have in PvP...do you even realize that we lose more PvP then we win? How would we EVER lose if we were so Uber....could it be that with our power comes heavy restrictions that are in place to keep us balanced...and if we lose much more then we win, obviously the balance is already off and not in our favor...so I ask you this...what happens to the scale that is already out of balance if you add more weight to the heavy side?

The whole idea that we are "invincible" or "over-powered" is just a weak way of saying you can't use strategy well...a commando is one of the easiest opponents to beat in the game...a Marksman can beat a Commando...But instead of just lying back and taking it OR abandoning our profession we have something called Character...do you know about Character? We choose to stay and try to see our profession fixed...and when attacked, we defend...and if possible, we fight back...

The idea that we want to be the most uber profession in the game is as stupid as the person who claims it...Let's say we did become the "most uber profession"...let's say we became unbeatable...what would happen? Everyone would become Commandos...and we'd get bored...so it would be counter productive to even try that...if that's the way you think, you really need to look up...because that's a clue flying over your head...sorry...

The sad thing is the devsactually think it is ok for a TKM to do more damage with their hands than a master Commando with his weapons.

You label me a troll because I disagree with you? Nonsense. There is nothing I have written that wasn't inappropriate. The CSR will re-read my posts and most likely ban you for false reporting.

Everything I have written has been IMPARTIAL observations based on experience. Frankly, I have written nothing that wasn't fact.

I suppose you all have also reported Thunderheart for being a troll because his remarks disagree with your opinion. You all didn't stop at calling him and idiot and other unsavory names. It wouldn't surprise me that you haven't called him a troll outright and then reported him to a moderator yet.

I'm a bit flattered that you believe I'm a "liar" because my combat abilities were so spectacularly amazing that the only explanation for my skills is that I'm making it up.

I must remember the golden rule to not engage in discussion with children and idiots because they'll always drag you down to their level. I'm done with this thread because you people are incapable of any rational discourse other than saying liar-liar-pants-on-fire and saying you're an idiot.

Thunderheart and the Dev's opinion align with mine. That's all I need to know to affirm that my beliefs are the correct ones. They don't have vested interest in their opinions like the people calling me a "liar".
