Hey! heres an idea. why dont all you DEVs fix a couple things about the commando prof as an act of good faith, BEFORE the combat rebalance (if it ever happens). even a little change or two for the better might lighten our spirits a bit after all of this excessive NERFING.
Commandos: PLEASE BACK ME UP ON THIS.
The Devs actually have already proposed doing this.

It is my goal to get them to do just that...give us something soon...or at the very least give us specifics and timelines...
Just made another post today in the Correspondent forum asking if we could get some of the things slated for the Combat Revamp move up in timing...or at the very least, get some of the other "tweaks and minor fixes" we have requested recently worked on prior to or with Publish 10...
I hope to hear something back soon...TH did tell me the other day that we should expect some Commando Love soon...but that could mean anything from some fixes to just a friendly confirmation post in our forum...so you never know...
For the time being, we should not just focus on other professions getting love and not us...we should focus on other professions, who also haven't seen love in awhile, are now getting love...this gives me hope for us...that our turn is coming soon...The Devs, at least in my eyes, are making good on their promise to make many fixes, tweaks, etc prior to and up to Publish 10...
You have to admit, we've seen a lot more game changes and proposed game changes in the last couple of weeks then in awhile (changes that weren't scheduled)...

Let's see; they said prior to JTL, and JTL comes out in October. Therefore the answer to your question is 3 months.

Actually, from my understanding (unless something has changed) the Combat Revamp isn't coming until sometime after the release of JTL...that's the bad part...
The good part is that the Combat Revamp (originally called the Combat Balance) was originally slated for Publish 11...which won't go live until September or October...Why do I say this is the good part? Well, originally the CB was suppose to include specific profession changes as well as overall Combat changes...Because of the push back the Devs are now trying to get as many of those specific profession changes in by or with Publish 10...that's a whole publish early...
The real question is, will we see many if any at all of those changes be Commando specific prior to the Combat Revamp...I'm being optimistic about it...I think they will...
Either way...I'm not going anywhere...I'm a Commando through good and bad...I don't blame people for leaving and I hope to welcome them all back when we do get our fixes (notice I say "when we do" and not "if we do")....

That is something thats bugging me. They have time to screw with things that currently work, macros and such, but they don't have time to work on the combat revamp?
It is my belief that a lot of things we've seen go in and are seeing go in that were not originally scheduled were actually already set to go with the Combat Balance (or were almost set)...but since it was delayed, they decided to release some of those changes early (like the CM changes and the new items for Docs)...
Anything new that wasn't already created or planned, the devs are mainly just looking for "quick fixes" or "temporary band-aids"...
The Recursive Macro thing that they are working on is still in the "development" phase...how many times have we seen something in the "development" phase that we have yet to see in game...I'll probably take a bit longer before we see those changes go live (just my opinion)....
Right now I'm very curious what else might have been ready (or almost ready) to go live when the CB go delayed...and of those items, what else can we get pushed...specifically anything Commando Related...

I guess maybe I misread Skeptic's post. I was aluding to us getting a "bone" sometime before JTL. Since we are hopefully getting these things before or in P10, I considered this before JTL, and a safe answer.
