TH already did comment on this, the just of it was:
Hologrinding has ruined the game and the GCW, therefore the Jedi changes HAD to come before they did the GCW update otherwise the entire effort would be useless. They want the drastic changes everyone is making to their characters causing all the inbalances to go away before balancing everything else.
*Sigh*
Now I really want to be a part of that system. Thanks Devs. Sounds really good so far.

Holo-grinding is killing this game and that needed to be fixed, hence Publish #10. To put in Publish #10, the Jedi profession needed to be re-done, hence publish #9.
In other words, the primary reason this is happening is for the good of the whole game, not some love-fest between Devs and Jedi players.

Oh i read that and i feel that it is just a round a-bout from the real question.I mean jedis have been around less then most things in-yet they are getting a revamp EVEN before fixing the holo problem...(sorry im running of a different comp and i dont like this keyboard...)
This feature is so much filled with awesome information that my head is about to explode! THIS is what I had imagined the path to Jedi would be. I /salute the devs for improving this game so much!!!

/Applude the devs!
I must say you have improved the system quite a bit. Just when I was thinking about quitting you give me a reason to think about sticking it out a little longer.
Although, like someone else asked, I was wondering what type of damage will the lightsabers do? Will it change so that Lightsabers really can kick some tail?
TH -
A couple of questions on Armor and Sabers....
I understand how we are going to have to tune the crystals/pearls - but is the method of acquistion still the same?
I now see that Jedi are going to get robes that have hidden toughness - does this mean that Armor will no longer be wearable by Jedi? or is it one option or the other. Most of the 'looted' or 'gifted' items seem to have much lower stats than that of which can be crafted.
Thanks in advance..
