Stop the melee prof defense stacking, ie. only have the profession's defenses when you are using the weapon of said profession. This would also apply to ranged profs. A rifleman using his T21 would NOT benefit having the pistoleer defensive tree.


Every profession should have a unique, and fair chance at PvP. Anymore, to beat a fencer, you need to be the same template as him.

Ignore all posts in this thread related to boosting Jedi, pay extra attention to everything else and delete the entire Jedi message board.



Vendor taken down because you have to invest skill points to run a business. Which I am out of. Sorry folks. I will still slice for you! Just let me know I'll help you out.

  • 75% PvP reduction on CM poisons and diseases.

  • Rework armor, so that it is not all about composite (spread high resists between different types of armor, increase vulnerabilities).

  • Poison/Disease cures at lower level, if you don't nerf weapon DoTs.

  • Balance the ranged professions (nerf rifle, bump up carbines / pistols)

Hard speed caps on the ranged profs say 1 sec for pistol 2 for carbines and 3 for rifles. It makes little sense that one sees rifles being shot at the speed of pistols.

Make the Heavy Acid Rifle a ranged weapon worthy of having it's own tree rather than having it be a weaker acid damage Flame Thrower clone.

Allow factional armour to be crafted by Players, with multiple armour types, certifications for better armours (more resists) granted at higher ranks. This also gives incentive for players to gain rank in the GCW. Add bracers and gloves to Marine armour.

(Ex. Imperial Private has access to Energy Special / Kinetic Base Stormtrooper Armour. Colonel has access to Energy/Kin Special Acid/Elec/Blast/Heat/Cold/Stun Base armour.)

Redefine the weapon speed formula and give combat professions a sensical +speed system -- master riflemen shoot faster than master pistoleers.

Make buffs percent based, have all stims heal mind, and in order to make it all work give us the new HAM system that was put on TC back in December.
