Commando Archive

Hi, Helios. Hope you're browsing the forum and will see this.

I have been testing as a Commando/BH on TC-3 and have had significant troubles due to a lack of dizzy recovery usable with Commando weapons. Currently, the dizzy recovery abilities from other professions do not seem to work when a Commando weapon is equipped, and, while Commando comes with KD recovery,it's useless for the most part since you cannot use it while dizzied.

To illustrate, here's something that happened to me earlier today:

I got dizzy/KD'd by a level 29 Imperial Executioner in Espa todayand couldn't get up for two minutes. He kept refreshing the dizzy on me right as it ran out and before I could stand up. Luckily, I was 51 levels higher than him, so he wasn't doing jack for damage; only time I've actually been happy with levels in SWG (now if only they'd remove thatpesky damage multiplier...).

I can suggest three solutions to this problem: 1.) allow dizzy recovery from other professions to work with a Commando weapon equipped, 2.) add a dizzy recovery ability somewhere in one of the commando trees, or 3.) remove knockdown recovery and replace with dizzy recovery - KD recovery is useless unless you can remove the dizzy.

Any help would be much appreciated.

Theres a bug with our heavy weapons that when they're equiped we can't get up, its says im disorientated or something.

I had this problem today, I fought a TKM, first thing he did was to KD me, that fight ended after few minutes of me on my back going doh, lol and ah poop!

After the fight i was saying what a pain in the butt not being able to get up, someone passing by then told me there was a bug with heavy weapons meaning when they are equiped you can't get up.

So i try this out and get KD with heavy weapon equiped, I could'nt get up at all, was saying crud about being disorientated etc. I then switched to my rifle, I instantly got back up and layed some commando smack down on this oppenents candy a$$!

I proceed to have atleast 5 more duels inbetween CTD with different opponents, winning everysingle one very easily, beat 2 tkm with no problems.

My template is Master Commando, Master Rifles, Pistols xxx3. Root is very invaluable vs melee. Startle I find to be great also against ranged opponents due to slowing there attack speed.

By trying to get back up, you mean using the KD Recovery ability, right?

I figured there was a bug involved....Was hoping anyway.

Also, I stayed intimidated for 20 minutes the other day. I finally had to get someone to kill me so I could clone and get it off.

Yep trying to use the KD recovery special, I also have the Dizzy recovery special but not sure if that works or not. I asked the tkm if he dizzied me but he said he just KD me.

Its says im disorientated when Ihave Heavy weapon equiped so can't get back up when try the KD recovery, but when Iequip a rifle I just leap back up when I click the KD recovery everytime. Which indicates to me a bug while holding Heavy weapons.

I duelled another commando , I KD using RL on him and he just could'nt get up, I changed to the T-21 after his KD to make sure it was'nt me just continuelly Knocking him down with RL special.He had the plasma flamer equiped.I told him to change weapon but he never did and never got up before I incapped.
