Thread: If the commando profession is soooo broke, unplayable and not fun ...
I don't consider the profession broken.
I have loads of fun playing it. I do massive damage with the flamer. I get very cool loot from nightsisters.
The profession is working fine. It can be enhanced, but it's working fine.
Again, if you thinkit's sooooo broke, then why do you bother playing it?

Also, I take it you don't actually want any of the broken things fixed?

Because giving up is the cowards way out (no offense to you dedicated folk who quit out of frustration.) I'm happy that you're satisfied with spending 169 skillpoints for your one trick pony, but no one else is.
If you think this profession isn't broken, take one look in the HAR and look me in the eyes when you say it. There is no possible way that the HAR is not broken.
I don't play it for the power. I play it cause I like it so far.
You really need to read this forum more clearly...Just because our profession is broken doesn't mean it's unplayable...I still enjoy being a Commando but I must honestly rely more heavily on my Dabbled Secondary profession then I'd prefer...
Ask yourself this...if you car blew a tire, would you buy a new car? or would you get your car fixed? We stay with Commando because we want to see it fixed...that's how much we love this profession...
For this profession to be considered our Primary profession, that would mean we could use it's abilities for most of our in game events...but with only one well working weapon, that's hard to do...
Take tonight for instance...I went to the new Geno Lab...at that Lab everything has very high Heat Resists...the most damage I could do anything (using flamesingle2) was around 600pts...and that's with a 1050 power FT...that barely put a dent in their HAM...other's around me were laughing...I had to shelve the FT and use my TKM skills...which did tons more damage then my FT...I would have been nice to have another Commando weapon that was reliable to use in that situation...but the Rocket Laucher (and other consumables heavy weapons) can't be used indoors (or in a cave)...the HAR is broken...the LP has no specials or skill mods beyond what we get in marksman...and grenades are out of the question...So my Commando Skill were completely useless...this isn't acceptable...it doesn't mean I want to abandon the profession over this, it just strengthens my desire to see us fixed...
So take moment and view our complaints through a different set of eyes...we complain and fight because we care...not just to here ourselves whine...
