Commando Archive

From the discussion forum.

Let's get ready.

coming...to give another post on how the devs know nothing about how the commando class functions, and then not come back for manymonths to respond.

So, they are comming here, to tell us, that they dont play Commando..and that they don't need to listen to those who plays commando, because they know best.

I can dig that...

It's not like Devs prodding us in this forum gives us any hope is it?...Let em come..and let em go..They can't make us worse now can they?.....or..knowing the devs..We would prolly have DE's laughing of us next..

OK, bear with me a bit here because I am still ramping up on exactly what the issue is (I don't play a commando myself).

The way things are at the moment, post-patch:

• Commando weapons operate at up to 64m. The default loop is slow but pretty powerful in terms of raw damage per hit. (I don't know how they are in terms of DPS--?)
  
• Commando weapon specials are limited to <16m.
  
• The commando weapons take pretty significant accuracy hits when used <16m.
  
• But the commando specials have significant accuracy bonuses which make them very accurate at <16m.
  
• Commandos take ranged weapon defensive penalties when fighting vs melee, resulting in 2x damage to them.

The way you thought things were going to be:

• Commando weapons would operate at up to 64m, but their strength is at short range for both specials AND default attack.
  
• Commandoswould not do extra damage to ranged weapon wielders.
  
• Commandos would not take defensive penalties versus melee

Is that accurate? I just need solid info so I can discuss this with the combat designer.
