Lets think realistically, as you may know, I myself am a Master Commando. Personally, I miss the old DoT damage, and I don't know why, with the up and coming fire blanket, why it needed to be nerfed. After allowing some time for people to adjust to the new style, I'm curious to see what other players may think. Again, be realistic. Id like to see Comando back into some people's template... and maybe be able to once again rival the TKM "Knock Down 2". Or the B.H "Eye Shot". The way I see it.

B.H Feared for- Eyeshot

TKM " " - Knock Down, Dizzy, and Head Hit

Riflemen " "- Strafe 2, Sniper Shot, Head Shot 3, Mind Shot 2

Commando " "- Turrets (The ability to remove them)and a new "mild" burn

Smug- " " - Low Blow


I think I miss my signature move... dosen't anyone else feel the same

Aie, well not 100% true... I did 100% own a master smuggler and TKM yesterday... but I mean really, after playing for this long I should be owning them, plus 30 others. Suffering to the Conquered.... thats ironically true.

I used to be MCH until Command required more skill points of me. Let me tell you, I can finally kill stuff as a commando. Comming from a CH where you can't kill anything, Commando is a Godsend.

We suck especially , when the flavor of the day (riflemen), can deathblow you from 64m, before you can get into any range to do any type of damage . It doen't help that there is very little armor out there that protects the mindbar. Especially, when it takes two or three hits too take a mind that is buffed to 2000, in the three stats, stopped pvp'ing altogether. Just went to grinding cash and FP. Seems that all Master Commando is good for now a days.

Well so far this has been Commando's VS PvP. And as for the Master Dancer I am sure they had some other professions under their belt (Thinks about TKA) From what you have said looks like you want to see Commando's on par with PvP professions ( BH, CM, RM come to mind). If you have played for such a long time you should come to relise we are not a PvP profession, we are PvE. As for the new dot stuff I love it. It now gives me the ability to do up to 15k dmg on aflame2 or 9k flamecone2which can get reduced alot but against mobs which don't have heat protection down they go and if the mob has 100% Heat resistence the dot still dmgs them.

I have still yet to see other professions take care of mobs as fast as us and with the DOT fixes I no longer get mobs kill stealed from me.


As for PvP it is a joke atm since poisons and diseases have not had a look in as of yet so the best PvP profession atm imo is the Combat Medic, 100% accuracy at 42m?? which do an aoe mind poisons with around 500 to 600 a tick why wouldn't you go one

I have died alot in PvP but that has mainly due to CMs I go back and look at the logs and the guys are missing me 60% to 70% of the time, during a recent fight I actually felt sorry for an IMP commando I was fighting because he missed me 3 times with his Flame2.


To be honenst I longer really care what they do to Commando as it has never effected the way I play much at all and I have learned to roll with the punches we takeso I canlook forward to the changes they make.

Look at it like this, if you went master commando, you likely will encouter PVP at least once. Don't tell me were a PVE class, because then you contridict the "Combat Balance" Whats blanced about the Ownage TKMs and Master Sharpies do in PVE, and PVP? "Balance" Really plays in there? Heh. If you really want to brag about people not being able to hit you, grab some of the "Ranged Defence" mods out of the combat tree in riflemen. Ive been killed once by a master sharpie. They're not really where my problem lies. It really lies with Tk's and Fencer and Heavy Swords, who are unmatched in PVP. If we want to see a real even playing feild... Give us our DoT's back! Heh. See, I think we all got suckered into commando from release ( I did ) And when we lost our DoT damage... we didn't really want to be a "noob" at some other Profession.
