Commando Archive

Hmm yeah I guess I shouldnt have put the dabblers comment....but still I think we need soemething better a reward for getting mester commando.

I'd like to see something like a flamesingle 3, or at least an increase in speed and accuracy for hitting master.. heres an idea... set it up so if you hit master, all of a sudden your acid rifle become a really useful weapon that has a speed of 2.0 damage of 350-750 and armor piercing... lol

I'm a master and I wont drop the title for anything, but the rewards for reaching it aren't really good enough right now...

That said.. at least we get more than master smugglers lol

The problem, if it is considered a problem, is that an increaseing number of players are going Novice Commando followed by FlameSpec IV, primarily it's not because they want to be Commandos to start with but because of the relatively easy power you get from just that line. In light of the BountyHunter changes where they are(considering?) moveing eyeshot to master, it isn't so easy to adapt thoes changs to the Commando Profession because we have two attacks of similare power level, namely Flamecone2 and Flamesingle2, haveing both at master is not a good solution in my opinion, even if there were more Speed and Accuracy modifieres added in the boxes from I-IV. I really dont know what the best solution would be at the moment, because I would hate to see a reduction in overall power of the Flamethrower line, but on the other hand I fully understand the issues with it.

If you want to play a game where you are force to play full professions go play EQ. Dabbling is here to stay, and thank god it is.

i complea;y agree with eyshot going to atleast pistol4 if not master. currently it is in pistol 2. there is a BIG xp diffrence from Psitol2 and flame 4 i had to work my ass of to get flame 4 ( im 3 2 4 0 dabbler my butti plan on master) anyway hell if i wanted to i chould drop medic and CH get the rest of scout and becoma a BH commando FS2 then eye shot them to doom. thats just wrong bah any way im not going to whine all i realy want fixed it revenge tefs today there was a BIG war in AH. ots of fun untill it became a TEF area deisees fest. i just left and whent to endor. then i can at least keep an eye out for ppl faming missions with there at-st's thats toatal fun just out of noware comes a group of 20 rebs and drops your 2 at-st's aww poor mission farmers go boom sad day

just relised that that post was a compleat rant sorry im REALY tired

The problem with dabblers is you start seeing the same classes everywhere.

People have been adding flame tree in commando to every class lately, and using it like it's going out of style.

Personally i'd like to see the flamethrower cert moved to master commando, JUST to remove it from the mass population. That or make flame 1 cone 1 just dmg attacks, and move flame 2/Cone2 to master and have them be the dot attacks.

Yes, dabbling is nice, dabbling has it's uses, everyone dabbles, but the fact stands that right now, master commando=worthless except for title and heavy weapons accuracy. (HW which no one really uses anyway). Flame4 is all you need for total effectiveness as a commando, suppliment that with CH and medic and your golden.

how about you're a **edit** rebel?

I disagree, being able to dabble in multiple skills is a good thing. If you make Master Commando the only viable option for that class, your going to see alot of cookie cutter classes.

I'm sure all these Master Commando's used flame2 to gain the hvy weapon xp quite happily. Now you there you want it moving? lol.

Jarrax hit the nail on the head...

Every Master of any class is like it.. I got master using this or that.. move it to master only.. Screw the people trying to get MY TITLE!!! I'm gonna be the only Master Commando on this server damit!!

LOL

Geeze you weenies. I run around and shoot my flame singles my flame cones and my bloody heavy weapons ON THE MOVE! I outdamage most players with their specials, this is WITHOUT fireing a single special. Just because we have uber 1 hit damage at close range DOESN'T mean we are worthless long range fighters. I can bring down ANYONE in a strait out firefight between me and my flamer and them and their whatever, on the move. I use RLs whenever I feel like adding some flavor or the enemys are stupid enough to stand in tight clusters, then they all fall down and I laugh. I use flame cone exclusively in pvp because that added chance to hit others pays off. I also use little tricks like haveing a pet attack the lair so all the mobs attack the pet, guess what I get to do, 1 shot kill all the mobs and get tons of exp, not that I need it, or haveing my pets occupy the rebel npcs while I just run up and flame single them 1 at a time. Works like a charm. I never bother to /aim or kneel or anything, its a waste of time and time is valuable in pvp.

"They're moving eyeshot to master I believe. Right now eyeshot is the single most powerful shot in the game, flame single2 is probably the second most powerful "

Thats not true flame single2 is the most powerfull right now.

COOOOOOOOOOL.

Im Commando 0-2-4-0

Does that mean ill get flamecone 2 instead of flamesingle 2?

WOW I TOTALLY AGREE TO THAT
