Thread: Positive comments about a broken profesion
First off i would like to say that I love being a commando. I have been a master TK and I wouldn't go back for anything. Every profession has its weakness. The key of course is to find the good points and maximize those and to exploit your opponents weaknesses. I am confident that over time our class will get fixed sooner hopefully...perhaps later. At any rate in the mean time we are still pretty powerful. First off I would like to say that I believe many people that play commando don't understand that we are intended to support groups large or small and we are tremendous assests to any group we are in. Also, too many commandos rely on FT single 1 and 2 many times running up on someone trying to flame them is just plain stupid and will get you killed. the defauld attack on your FT not only hits very hard but has a very nice range. If you are picking up commando to PvP thanbe a bounty hunter. flame cone 1 but especially 2 is brutal to opponents and sure many times its a sucide mission but when you can DOT 3 or 4 targets even if you go down you just gave your group a big edge and,did your job. The LP, sure it doesn't have specials yet but it has a lot of range and it can virtually blind an incoming force and give your melee fighters a chance to get in. I am not unware of the many problems facing commando nor am I unware of all the posts here about lack of specials, the HAR, and accuracy problems. I am only saying that in game i see a lot of stupid tactics used by commandos and commando dabblers. If you run in on a master brawler or if you /duel a master BH and than get owned...well i am not sure that any amount of fixing our profession will help your tactical mistakes.

I'll just say one thing...
I couldn't read that, it was too confusing in that giant block format.
