i finally did it.i finally surrendered master commando. after being a commando since july, i finally hung my flamer up.


why did i do this? why did i, the most die hard commando that i knew finally give up? i was just tired. tired of waiting for our class to get fixed. tired of waiting for the combat revamp to "fix everything". tired of missing everyone with my flamer in pvp. tired of not having many weapons to choose from. tired of always having to be in melee range to do the most damage. tired of relying on tka to get me out of trouble. tired of the excuses laid out by the devs for our profession. tired of getting nerfed over and over because noobs don't know how to use strategy and tactics against us.


of course, i'll be reading these forums still. when, or actually if, they fix this profession, i want to know, so i can decide if i want to get it back again.


to you others still fighting the good fight, i /salute you.

i am about to drop commando as well im currently commando/pistoleer/smug and im just not cutting it in PvP. i started grinding fencer today and am loving it. then once i master fencer i think i will trickle my pistoleer/smug skill points into TKA and master heavy swords. ill be a melee god, PvE and PvP. at least i refuse to go FotM CM or Rifleman.... i feel like im letting the commandos down, but if enough people leave perhaps it will get noticed.



and there was much rejoicing...

I wish they would fix your class...flamethrows and other heavy weapons could be great if they actually work.

I dropped it three nights ago altogether. Since then I grinded two days non stop and I now am a TKM/Rifleman. Yes I joined the bandwagon but seriously this combo works so well. I was in a guild hunt today, if you can call it that since it was just 3 of us hehe, killing nightsisters and we absolutely OWNED them all over the place. One of my friend was also a master rifle/TKM and the other was a Pistoleer/BH.We took on three Nightsister Protectors at once, a 3 on 3 match and we did fantastic. Even the 470k Ham NSat the end of the cave wasnt a match for us.Not a single death the entire night.


I really wish i didnt have to give up commando because I really did have fun with it for a time. However it just wasnt worth all the kill points it ate up. I love the idea of a Commando but until the dev make it what it should be my Krayt FT will hang on the wall of my house.

Dropped it a week after the big nerf. I love commando and will always be a commando at heart, but I love pvp too. Commando is a flawed design, and I hope the devs can swallow their pride and realize this before it's too late.

Sad to hear that we are loosing fellow commandos. But I guess you can only kick a guy in the nuttsack that many times before he sings "time to say godbye".


Anyway I think Ill take a few more kicks before ill drop my commando profession. I mean what will they do next?? give us CDEF riffles as special weapon?

We have to fight to get it revamped first.

Agreed, however, many of those professions dont need a revamp, rather they need to have skills fixed/balanced, etc. The only other professions that are in need of comple revamp (read: redesign) are smuggler, droid engineer and squad leader. By revamp, I mean the restructuring of the way the profession itself works. The good news is, two out of the four that are fundamently flawed in design (pikeman for instance is a modifier and under powered issue, doesn't need to be redesigned from the ground up) are being revamped in the near future. There is hope, we just need to show the developers not just that the profession is borked (which everyone in the game besides the devs knows it is) but it is not capable of being a functional class with a usefull decidated role to play unless the entire profession is revamped.

I'm with you there pal,
I was out bunnyslaying near the PA to get the little pests away. I found a corellian butterfly warrior (which usually takes 3 flamesingles to kill since i miss so much)and i killed it wih just ONE unarmedhit2.And when i dont kill it that fast it barely has any HAM left and a simple hit could take it out.
Now lets look at logic.How can one of my skills that takes no time and skillpoints have a huge advantage over a hybrid skill?it's just not right.......

despite that I'll see how many more kicks i can take and go for Master Commando/TKM (gonna master TK first for meditation and the defensive bonuses)
