Everyone complained that the CU borrowed from WoW too much... I would suggest that they didn't borrow from WoW enough.


It's kind of funny, and yet ironic that my WoW Paladin is more commando than I am right now. Despite being a commando in SWG, my paladin can do all this:



  • Plant C-4 to blast open virtually any locked door.

  • Throw Dynamite/Grenades that actually do decent damage

  • Use a deathray

  • Use a cloaking device to go all commando

  • Use an assortment of various gadgets to bamboozle my opponents at any given moment


They should seriously just take goblin engineering and use that as a template for commando - it'd be morecommando than what we have now (there's actually a flamethrower trinket for golbin engineers too...)

Hmm two things that stopped the CU from being perfect.

1. Levels. Ya got your good sides and your bad sides, but when I see CL 192 I tend to get pissed. I want to smack the guys "Balancing" all the Worlds and Dungeons. I assume their using Jedi in their testing cause they haven't a clue, that most things CL 90 easily kill us without glow rods.

2. Commando. Once again it was made an unworthwhile profession. Nothing really good about it except maybe AoE which is broke and can only be useful in Crowd Control, to which we are suppose to have a 1. I see the 3 Defense, but I ain't seeing the 5 Offense and 1 Crowd Control. I feel so alone in my attempts to make Commando a normal Profession with Specials and Certfied Weapons. And no more freaking built-in Specials damnit! AoEs only belong on Grenades too really. I can go on and on. But I'm sick of not having any abilities. Am I the only as a Commando who is sick of the fact that you must get another profession if you want to do anything in Combat like KD or something. Every Profession is defined by their Specials and Weapons. It pisses me off that the Devs were like "Screw those idiots, just give them weapons with special stuff, that way we don't have to balance any of their Specials cause they don't have any, and then we just keep their Weapons Damage balanced and were done."

I don't think they have any thought process at all. Who in the hell came up with what we have now? We were all afraid when we saw it, but some of us were like, we'll lets give it a chance maybe it works. It doesn't. No effort is or has been done to fix Commando on the Devs part. You need to Re-Vamp this profession. There is almost no Profession as broke as Commando, and the CU was suppose to fix us cause we are FREAKING COMBAT RELATED. And yes CHs and SLs need some help too, but those are odd more hobby Professions anyways.

Dangit. I'm mad. Really, really, really mad. But their lack of communication, and all ther things, and their lack of care to this profession is really sad. I'm not buying another SOE game thanks to the crap we've been putting up with. ya know I almost want to get banned. Don't matter to me I only play on the weekends. At least a Mod or Dev would have then had to have read my post. Oh but they won't so pffft.

Ya wanna ban me! Ok, but damnit least let me tell you what's wrong with Commando.

Hey and the Devs think were overpowered because we have AoEs. Oh yes we have those, or we should say, ToE(Tick off Everything), since they don't really do any effect except to get you killed and the Mob angry at you.

With regards to the AOE, I look at it like this,


AOE = Aggro of everything.
