well, when i began this game a year ago i was enraptured with the proffession fo comando and evry bit of grinding i did was towards being a master coamndo.

and it was bitter dissapointment I realised that even with a 1200 max dam flamer with 4 dots buffs and brandy with canapes that id have to flame and switch to tk. well we all knwo the problems we had then. and while i never posted here till recently i read with keen interest the views of my fellow comado's their hopes and dreams for the proff.

CU arrived. and i for one was more dissapointed with the proff than before. i dropped tk for bh when i realised how crap that too had become and while our proff is supposed to be a hihg damage proff i am out damaged by unmastered carbineers and riflemen etc, my 1200 max damage flamer now just doing barely over a k.

with /ex no longer identifying he enemies weakness against a particular element, the variety of elements we can attack with means we all just stick witht the flamer and hop[e for the best. no change there then.

grenades too are more useless than ever with the time it takes to throw one interfering with the specials used with other proffs as we have none of our own, the specials apparently being built into our weps now.

trying to take an npc or jedi bounty with comando is out of the question, the damage dealt far exceding the damage you can deal your self, even with a plasma flamer thats supposed to do 400 odd dps.

Frankly ive been let down one tim.e too many, and while i love the idea fo comando still, its time to move on, to a proff i can actully win with

memnoku the devil.

Do they speak english in the land of what?
What?
ENGLISH MOTHASUCKA! DO YOU SPEAK ENGLISH?
What?
SAY WHAT AGAIN MOTHASUCKA! SAY WHAT AGAIN!

I know I know the guy probably doesnt speak english as a first language, but I can just never get enough Pulp Fiction or Cowbell.

This thread needs more cowbell.

And um to the OP sorry you didn't like commando. For the record it wasn't the profession or its members or its correspondent that failed you. It was the developers. They have failed all of us, horribly.

actually...

i think he let himself down.

all his complaints i have a counter for.
everything he says cant be done... can be.

everything that a rifleman/carbineer/pistoleer, etc, etc can do, so can i. (not including specific specials but i dabble for the ones i want)

its HARDER to do it with a commando, but that is why Commando's are hard ass's.

To be Commando is Hard.
To succeed at Commando is Elite.

jedi's arent the elite class of SWG, they are the Grinder class.

Commando, the truly Elite.

Also why we weren't whining as bad as other professions when the CU hit. Heh, for some of us...it was an improvement! For others, it was easy to cope with as we have been coping under near worse conditions before...now its just bad because the armour and buffs have been taken care of, but our damage went to the birds.

yeah, i do miss my 1.6 spd flamer... and my adk'd 65% PSG's.

i was the only non-jedi i know who could go toe to toe with an SBD.

i DO miss those days.

Commando requires alot more tactics and strategy now.

its not just "whip out flamer and burn".

to be fair i can see what he means... from what i understand... and like you said commando is hard to handle and be any good with, its like moving from X-wing maneuverability onto a B-wing... its very different and unless you stick with it for a long time youll never hurt anything (for any of the non-rebel pilots, B-wing has tricky handling

)

personally ive been considering my options again as a commando, i dont want to drop it but its very tempting, i know everything could be so much simpler... right now im master commando/CM with 0400 carbineer... its good but im still not happy... ive tried a bunch of templates and none of them satisfy me (lets not turn this into yet another template thread)

maybe im just not elite enough then... but rather than insult his terrible terrible grammar i thought id back the guy up, it is hard and dabbling for what you want to supplement commando is tricky... if we got rid of brawler 4000 im sure everyone would be more powerful thanks to the skill points itd open up, maybe ill just go set fire to some rancors now and consider what templates i havent tried yet... or the new SL changes...

but with carbineer improved leg shot i did over 1200 damage to lvl82 gurks with a saber armour break... not uber maybe but better than anyone else there was doing! (still so proud of that brief glimpse of being the biggest damage dealer) my point on that bit is that even though we complain commando is underpowered and should be better... it is NOT weak

and even if im not a moreelite commando and still find it hard, atleast i can fly a B-wing
