Well I got to say being Master Commando is so cool. I love being out damaged by TKA, Fencer, Riflemen, and now with with those geo weapons about all other classes. Might help if our other weapons were worth a poop. Gernades, Rocket Luanchers etc. And can someone explain to me how a launcher pistol is not a armor pierceing weapon? We are getting worse and worse. Everyone else is getting love but us.

I understand and simpathize with your frustration, but . . .


In P7, our HAR will get some love. I AGREE IT IS NOT A WHOLE LOT. But it is something.


We need to get some more love. Wha would you suggest as fixes/enhancements to our profession?

Do we acutally know if the HAR will be seeing any improvements in P7?.. i thought it was certain that there would be NO changes in P7, and that there MIGHT be some changes in P8 or later. I hope im wrong but that was my impression

You're right. They need to fix commando. I was grouped witha master commando in the geonosian caves and he did not even come close to outdamaging me. He used flamesingle 2 over and over again, while I used two hand head hit 3. The monsters were mind incapped every single time. If you think Swordsmen do a lot of damage, then you should see what the Riflemen can do......

The HAR is getting some love in publish 7... but that still doesn't change the fact that everything else he says is still true, even so.

Uh....I'm not quite sure that's exactly accurate (no pun intended). The broke accuracy mods for the HAR in our skill trees are getting fixed...i'm not sure that the weapon it's self is gettin any love.


Which box of the HAR tree says (roughly) "at this level the commando can use the har to melt through armors critical points with ease"? And they made the damn thing the lowest AP of any acid weapon in the game? Friggin ponderous.

The accuracy mods for the HAR are getting fixed(and speed ?), so are some animations. This is how the HAR is getting some love.

I wish I knew.

Go figure. This is why I say some love. Now if they were to go and make the weapon viable against things that can't be killed by the FT I might be a bit more excited. Unfortunately, as is, I'm going to stick with my DX2 over the HAR I think.

I think they should definatly give us some cool specials with the launcher pistol...man i don't remember the last time i even caried mine with me. thinking something like a lobing shot or something that acts kinda like mortors and the damage goes to the group as a whole. you know since we are commando's and commando's are for war funny how i'm a way better hunter than pvper.


and also fix the armorattachments like come on there isn't any such thing as heavey weapons speed or accuracy and yet you can still get these attachments..fix em please everyone else can stack there accuracy up and up and up why can't we


thanks this is my 2 cents

I fully agree with all of you responding to this post. Ive been playing this game since day 1 and the reason why I'm just now joining the forums is because I'm TOTALLY frustrated with this profession. A friend of mine is a master rifleman(who loves his profession i might add)and has no trouble taking down things that i struggle with. Reason: He can fire continuously and we cannot. I sat there and watched him continuously fire for 5 seconds straight without a pause. That rifle has 5.8 speed!!!!!!!! Howin the galaxy is this possible when most of us have flameunits that have 5-6 second speedBEFORE slices?!?!?!?I will tell you how. WeUSED to(most of youwill remember this)have a continuous fire rate just like any other profession but it was taken from us!!!!!!! Why?!?!?!? The bounty hunter is facing the same frustration with the llc. Why?!?!?!? Besides my frustration with the acid rifle ina previous thread(and my frustraion withALL ofour heavy weapons)this is a MAJOR FRUSTRATION.



Bottom line:


Commandoes and Bounty Hunters should beFEARED!!!!!!! NO QUESTION!!!!!! But for some reason we continue to get liquidated and we are the most destructive forces in the game outside of fs characters. I dont get it.


Quote from the strategy guide about our profession: "When there is a question about firepower, the commando is the one to answer it."


Uh..........no ask someone else



Thanx for reading


Later!!!!!

Oh by the way something else to wet your appetite from my previous post: I have a rocket launcher that does 1625-4675 damage and at ideal range, I did 4024 damage TO A LAIR!!!!! What?!?!?!? Heck my flameunit does twice that damage and more at point blank range(which is no where close to ideal)and it has almost half the max damage rate as the minimum damage rate for the rocket launcher.


Commando = Joke?


You better believe it!!!!!!!


Im finished ranting now(and feel a little bit better)


Thanx for reading


Later!!!!!
