Well guys it seems the bright boys at SOE now has fooked us as much as you. I have been hearing for a while about how messed up and broken your Profession is and I really feel for you lads. But brighten up your no longer on the short end of the stick and can feel much better knowing that they now have messed up yet another combat class!!!


Well what have they done to bounty hunters you may ask


1.Just as some of your heavy weapons don't work our lightning cannons are just useless pieces of dung, only good for hunting Gnorts and you can only use speacials in mele range. I understand that you gentelmen are haveing the same problem with your heavy weapons.


2. Bounty Missions actually cost us money to complete after you get Investagation 1. Yup thats right we no longer make Profit from our mission we end up paying thousand of credits to complete them and with the New Patch we now have to Buy our droids from Droid Engies making our losses greater. Oh the only way we can reach master BH is to take BH missions we can't just kill any old mob for xp.


3. With increased HAM cost on our carbines we hurt ourselves more using speacil attacks than someone shooting us. 66% Of the Bounty Hunter Carbine Tree is Knockdown shots and with this Nerf it is now a useless skill tree.


I posted this because a curious Commando asked for a post on your forum about how the Patchy effected the Bounty Hunters. So cheer up lads Misery loves company and now you have us Bounty hunters with ya.

Granted, I've never seen a patch where they even admit there is such a thing as a Commando... I really feel for ya guys.

Sorry we don't shed a tear for your missery for you bounty hunters....You guys at least HAD your moment in the sun! Heck there are even quite a few Expert Bounty Hunters running around but you won't see that in the commando professions because we've been fu&%$# since day one...but hey we decided to go this route and many of us decided to go commando for the reason there were just too many BH running around....As for the knockdown shot, EVERY knockdown move for EVERY profession has been nerfed and it is for the best....Personally it was fun to watch and especially great to team up with BH and watch that knockdown in action...then it got pretty tiresome watching players, NPC's, creatures, pets get knockdown at will and blasted to bits while laying on the ground....Something had to be done to put a little bit more challenge back into some of these skills due to some players abusing the knockdown abilities....Now you have to think carefully how you use your diff. weapon skills and you just can't jump into a mob and start blasting....Too many got comfortable with using it, some got to absolutely abusing it and thus lesson of the DEV's that some just don't learn is IF they even think someone is exploiting something, you gotta know by now it's going to get nerfed!!!! Maybe us fellow commandos need to start a thread 'rumor' that we've found a way to exploit our profession by NOT having the heavy weapons and by the weak damage that our current line of heavy weapon inflict....that way the DEV's will quickly jump in and finally FIX the things!!! LMAO

Well the Knockdown should not be spammed I suggested keep the nerf in PVP and leave as was before patch PVE. What most of the uneducated not in the Bounty Hunter proffesion know is that our targets have HAMS in the range of 12,000 to 30,000 without using the Knockdown shot it is impossible to win a battle wise guy before you spew verbal diahreia know the facts.


Yes Nerf then Knockdown in PVP thats fine who wants to be spammed by a cheap shot all day. But they have also effectivly by nerfing it in PVE have taken away our ability to complete missions and progress in our profession but judging form you attitude you really don't give a rats ass. Like i said a curious commando asked for a post so I did. Thanks for the Flame.

well first off.. that post was hilarious.. lol jump up to fix us..



2nd off.. they wont put it back the way it is.. i believe they should put a timer on Knockdown for Pvp/pve.. see the reason they really changed it was because alot of people were just jumping eve mob and spamming Knockdown as much as they could.. thats considered a exploit by the people at SoE.. so if it was an exploit they must change it.. but your Targets having 10k health.. that shouldnt be

little bit too harsh Ronin, I understand the sentiment but too harsh.


Don't we all ask others to research our problem first?

I can understand Ronin alot.. he is prolly like me.. classes who know Absolutely nothing about the class like to critize and say that we arnt gimped, and blah blah and it just gets old, so you tell everyone who says something to go research.. its just.. fustrating we all understand lol..i cant say i have much Sympathy for you BH's either.. we have been sitting in this boat since day 1.. and we are still waiting.. all they ddi was dump a few BH's in with us too.. but you guys still dont have it that hard there are still things you can do to stop form being gimped, while us.. there is basically nothing much we can do...



But.. BH's i can understand where you are coming from..
