After hologrinding 15 professions (actually 11 the first 4 were pre-holo) I was starting up Pikeman, and **edit** near quit the game because of it. Started Commando this morning and this job ROCKS!!! I haven't had this much fun killing stuff since I first started playing back in the end of July.
Which leads me to my question. Whats the big uproar about the next publish/update that has people jumping ship? I have read a few of threads but can't/don't understand what the big deal is. I'm not saying that people are whining, just that I think that I'm missing or not understanding something.

The deal with the flamer as you will discover is accuracy and loooonnng special recycle time. Because of those 2 factors our damage per second is lower than all other combat professions. Our only advantage was our flame dot but that is being made less viable. For the next couple of patches it's going to suck being a commando but my hope is, once the combat revamp is finished the rest of our weapons will be usefull making the flame dot only a side note not worth bitching about.

Easiest? Doing what?
Currently I'm a Novice Commando and 2-2-3-3 in TKA. I've been leveling mostly TKA because the exp is incredibly easy to get (over 4k unarmed exp per picket/quenker) and Commando has been for the most part ignored for now. What's the easy exp coming from?

I got 4 boxes in Commando in about 2 days, doing this. I reside on Lok, outside of Lokian Abyss. I would arm my Launcher Pistol, then get a mission, Gurk missions that are only about 500m away. Get fully buffed, and go raid our Chef...head out on my way. I would just sit infront of the Gurk lair, and just spam flame cone...within 5-10minutes I would have accomplished around 40k of xp, and 8k of money. Then move to the next lair. This has worked great for me so far.

Thanks for the input, especially about the HAR line. I usually level on Pikets on Dantooine, pretty easy and they don't deathblow. What exactly are they doing with the flame DOT?

Get Master Commando and maintain it for at least afew weeks, then you'll understand what all the uproar is about.
