Commando Archive

Just a funny little observation of mine.

Why do all commando heavy weapons get a 2.5x melee damage modifier, but the Bounty Hunter's Light Lightning Cannon does not?

Granted that it's name implies that it is a "light" weapon, but all you have to do is look at the stats on one and check out the BH LLC tree to see that it is almost identical to the flamethrower in power, speed, specials and function.

I'm not really one to cry nerf, but lets get real here. If you're going to cripple the Commando's livelihood, at least make it an even, universal nerf.

Iam a bounty hunter and there is a 2.5 mod on the llc as well

Let's stop this class envy right now. It does nothing but divert both commando's and bounty hunters from the real objective. That both classes need work and should be tweaked. Honestly....the 2.5x mod doesn't bother me at all. What annoys me is that comandos dont get a backup weapon to fall back on. Launcher pistol gets no mods or specials. THAT is one of our problems.

o man will you shut up, why the hell should commandos have the mod and bh's not, but that other dude said they did. ok w/e, if the commandos have it then the bh's deserve to have it too

The mod does count for the LLC. Good news is BH have other weapons to fall back on.

No one should have it period. But whining like a child won't do anything. If you actually knew how the commando played you'd realize that our BIG issue is the fact that our launcher pistol and HAR sucks. So quit your belly aching. SOE does not care. Don't you get it? As long as you give them their 15 a moth they could care less. So think about that before you tell someone to "shut up".

cyber ya we need to get to gather and screem and holwer r heds of until it gets changed

No one should have that dmg mod, period.

Riflemen have had it for a while, unless ur master rifleman scenario for us is...

60m laser rifle (since T 21 is suicide Ham cost for no extra dmg) go prone

fire at target

target warps

x target does insane dmg

you stand up

you miss

you have been incapacitated

Went krayt hunting, warp, instagib time for me with 6k+ dmg... etc etc etc

At least riflemen have a reason to stay at range though, since our guns hit out there... usually. Workingclose to the target with heavy weaps has got to suck...DNA sampling things (have to be within 15m)Ive had to pick up Pistols skills because im dead in two hits against anything stronger than a gnort when they aggro.

Could be worse though! Heavy weapons could still do melee type dmg Picture PvP.... ya there ya go... messy

LLCsDOES have the modifier. As a matter of fact after I hit my bleed shots on a mark, I switched to LLC just as the mark warped right on top of me. 1200 melee dmg. Luckily he bled to death while the clone window was up .

I strongly suggest you check your facts before asking about a nerf on anyone.
