Hello again this is the first time i have actually used these boards for anything for a very long time

Way back 31 proffesions ago and thru many Griefers and Punks i have passed thru to get back to attempting to enjoy i unlocked pre pub 9 stayed out of sight and out of mind for the most part thru publish after publish and think for the mostpart we all really just want to have a fun time.


Why is that we dont have more innate skills i mean whats this force progression thing i see i get to lear how to get up from a knockdown at initiate wow the force leads me back to me feet!!!


A throw a burst something in the trees i mean im a Knight and i have nothing more than anyone else



each box should give an innate skill


Of course im bored why else would it take this long to get back just some food for thought

so far jedi is far less than it could of been i mean i realize there is still time to make it better but my faith is flailing

the answer is simple. If the devs were to make jedi as powerful as they should be, the rest of the player population would whine and cry about how unbalanced jedi are.


Oh wait.... they already do that!


Basically the devs can't win. They are stuck in a classic catch-22. make the Jedi too powerful and the players whine, make Jedi too weak and they aren't worth playing.

I haven't seen root, but pets are doing specials that haven't been taught to them. I've got a Boar wolf that I've been fighting with to learn Marring Storm 2, he had no other ability, and he was putting bleeds and feints on mobs.

It appears to be a side effect of wild creatures getting abilities to synch up with the "mobs now execute specials against players" change. Whether this was an intended development or a bug is still up in the air. On the one hand, pets can do specials (although not by command) which makes them more powerful. On the other, it might be neat to have CH's build up a "stable" of pets with a mix of trained and innate abilities.

Well, the icon was showing IF L1, but I think even when you train IFL2, the debuff iconshows L1.

I think its stupid and I hope its a bug personally. If pets will randomely use specials they haven't even learned, then what's the point of specifically teaching it a trigger ability? More specific example, if my pet is going to use Bleed Attack anyway then what's the point in wasting ability slots giving it Bleeding Attack? Just so I can trigger it when I want to?


My thought is that its probably an oversight by the developers. They enabled random specials on wild creatures (which also doesn't make sense, IMO. They should use only what they could have innate if you tamed them, but thats just me), and they neglected to make it so that pets don't have random specials.

So don't teach it bleed and use the slot for another special

exactly


its like ur pet ALREADY knowing a special or two just teach him some others then

and if all pets in a species have the same specials then u wont have to hunt till u find the one with the special so we can get pets with two triggered specials all reaydy to use.......just we cant tell them when


but heck its a HUGE add-on to previous pets


for example u get a gaping spider hunter and u r a rifleman/MCH it already knows hamstring with NO negative side effects


just think of it assome love being thrown to the CHs

I think this is part of the general AI crank-up.


When you go hunting, watch for the critters you are killing to be doing the same to YOU.


Ought to make for a fun time tobe had by all, lol.
