I'm grinding back to Master Commando. Having just finished almost all the Combat Professions, minus BountyHunter, and I've found that every profession can be grinded very easily. Now I'm coming back to Commando again (your optimism has convinced me devs will fix Commando) and I'm getting on average 25% less xp killing the same thing I've killed in every other combat profession. Why?I'm guessing it has to do with the Flame Dot stealing my xp, however even when I one shot kill the same mob, I still get less than if I used a Rifle, Pistol, Gaf Stick, Polearm, Hammer, VK....ect.. Why?


I thought in a previous nerf patch with the dots the devs explained how the dot would count towards xp and loot rights. Am I wrong or is this the way its supposed to be....meaning isCommando supposed to take 25% more kills than any other combat profession to Master? I'm already Flame4 so I'm not that worried the xp will fly now but I really would like to know if its going to be fixed.


side note, I forgot how bad the accuracy Commando has, after mastering mele professions I dont know how any Commando has hair left....I almost pulled mine out after missing 4 times in a row against the same quenker.

its prolly true..despite what some ppl brag (heard a guy in coronet other day yelling how easy commando was and he mastered it in 1 day etc)


anyways..my TKM friend on chilastra was lvling MC up...and he remarked that it was a good proffession....until i told him how bad it is without another class to support itself


in all..i find that the braggerts and liars who say commando is the easiest proffession to master and the strongest of all...are either very spoiled (where they have a 2nd master elite before taking up commando) or never tried ANY of the other combat proffessions...most of what they say is simply untrue when you're standing and looking at just Pure commando...


...yeah this is a skill based game, but when a 169 master hybrid class cant stand on its feet by itself..sure says something...it gives no incentive to master it...and sure as heck doesnt entirely improve being a master anyways...only encourages dabbling...

Each profession has an experience per kill cap. Commano is about 3k while other professions are higher. I am guessing this is in place so that people don't level commando to quickly. I hope that helps
