Thread: Nerfherded coming?
I have not been a commando for that long, but long enough to experience the pre patch tears and post patch cheers. I may be an alarmist, but I can already hear the nerfherders pounding on our gates.
I hope I at least get a week of blowing the hell outta things before they nerf us back to our elite pre-patch status of being the guy everyone looks at, reads their profession title, then gets that sad look intheir eyes and says...
"I'm soooo sorry, friend..."
"This is deliberate" -Ralph Koster
translation (no nerf)
some people really think these guys are idiots, yet they somehow managed to create a massivly popular 3-D game that takes tons of talent, hard work and dedication. I dont think the guy that pumps gas and smokes a ton of pot down the road could do that, and he is an idiot.
and dont tell me the Star Wars name itself is the SOLE reason people play this game, if the game sucked people wouldn't play it.
I dont understand why we would be nerfed( im not fully advanced yet in commando so if some info is wrong plz correct it)
1: Our Flamethrower and HAR are AR0, If ppl actually wore armor when PvPing then maybe theyed see a difference in damage intake
2: Our Specials are slow and after we use one we cant just switch weapons, we have to wait around 10 secs before we attack...its like we get hit with a panicshot.
3: The Weapons Ideal ranges are melee ranges...The HAR is 0m and if your stupid enough to let me hit you from 0m you deserve to die
Ivoni has some very good points on why we arent going to get nerfed, I think its in his Commando Guide
It's pretty funny that ppl are calling nerfs to us when they don't have any idea about us. True, the patch has increased our max damage, but we still can't hit very well..
ALL YOU GUYS GOTTA EASE UP!
well they nerfed a riflemans T21 to **edit** saying it was unheard of to do 3k in one shot but hey no problem letting a commando hit for 1k in pvp and cuase fire dmg.......

We are also a HYBRID PROFESSION, your just an elite. hybrid take tons more time, and costs more skill points. end of story
I'm sorry but the people who posted above saying they don't think a nerf is needed/should be coming what are you retarded? or do you just not play the game? You don't find it odd that on a consistent basis you can do 5x the dmg of anyone else, and up to 10x as much with a special? not only instantly but your specials carry a dot as well?
The thing that confuses the hell outta me is that the work on "balancing" the game and some classes that were "PITIFUL" are being gimped even further, and then outta no where they go and make one class 10x more powerful than pistoleer's ever were.
PvE we should be gods but in PvP if you have some armor on we are just the same as anyone else even with specials. I was fighting a guy with armor on and was hitting for nothing so we don't hit for 5 or 10 times more then anyone else and do you really think a pistoleer should be stronger then a commando when you are using a light weapon and we are using heavy weapons?? Come on get real.
Ehrgeiz Zwiehander my friend's a master rifleman and last night i took they ol particle cannon out to do some nightsister initiate missions with him. Needless to say, his 3-7k @ 1 second speed out damaged my particle cannon. Not only that but he had some CRAZY aoe attack that just killed everything in sight.
I don't believe we're on par with other classes still...
Elbobbo ,
the enourmous amount of regergetated stupidity spewing from your postdoesn't surprize me one bit
you are obviosly not a Commando, thus have zero insight on what is going on in the Commando Community. You are failing to consider our relativly low DPS (Still) and VERY high miss rate.
IfI was to take a guess, you probably play a Rifleman and complain thet you get X2.5 melee penalty
