that's all well and good TH, but will i ever get to control more than 1 Stormtrooper at a time?


the way you make it sound, you need to be a CH to have multiple faction pets. is this right?

Too strong? AT-ST's, if anything, are weak. About a monthago I dropped by a small battlefield (sm.Reb station attacked by ST's and an AT-ST). I spectated and I saw a Rebel player show up, wipe out the ST's. This is while the AT-ST was shooting at him. As a covert, novice marksman in Bone Armor,I couldn't do much but spectate. When most of the ST's were killed off, he whipped out his Gaffi Stick, wailed on the AT-ST for 30 seconds, and it was dead! I can see a Commando with Rocket Launchers killing off an AT-ST, but a stick!

Just how much average XP's and FP's do Rebels get when they kill one, out of curiousity?





Sorry Th and SOE i apologise for my obive statement but it really does piss me off.

I mean nerf em again why!

didn't you read this post i have put above?

again i apoligise just a little pissed rihg tnow

Ok, ...this is disturbing ....


"I know some of you are used to having three pets out, but the reason Creature Handlers are being re-balanced is because players can get the combat benefits of the Creature Handler Tree for the skill point cost of 2 trees (essentially all the benefit for half the skill point price) and having three pets out is a major perk for Creature Handlers. If everyone can do it, then its not a perk."


When in ANY of the movies did you see 1 Generalcommanding 1 Stormtrooper to go kill that "band" of Rebels?


Look, with troops ...there was always an ARMY!! Right??? That being said, whenare you guys going to give the people who took the time and their hard earned points to up their Rank the right to call on 3 or more troops???? Ido understand 1 tank (AT-ST), but to only have1 troop?TROOPERS ARE NOT PETS! THEY ARE TROOPERS!! I'm doing Creature Handler right now, and I don't like it nor will I keep it once I'm done. I do not want an animal (unless it's a Dewback so I can ride it with my ST armor on..lol). Here is an example ....


Lieutenant= 2 troops


Corporal = 3 troops


Surface Marshall = 4,5+ troops


Just to name a couple. Get the idea? A Private shouldn't be able to call on any troops. You should have to earn the right to have troopers (Factional "pets" - as you call them).

Please STOP giving these rights to ONLY Creature Handlers!!!! PLEEEEEEAAAAAAASSSSSSSSSSEEEEEEE

Due to the fact that the combat rebalance isn't happening any time soon, please revert the combat functionality of CH pets back to their pre-December level. CHs were the only profession to go through the "balance." This has made the profession substantially weaker compared to other professions. Please fix this development error before other changes are made to the game.

hmmm well when I was a reb.. Commando Atst were cake now that i changed servers and now im a tka commando and have an atst... There still cake to wipe off.. hmm let me think I have one and never use it.. Because there to easy to get killed.. Ie thats why you dont see them anymore....in the game...Now for those nukle heads who think the imps were to powerful.. let me think they need to be Hence the power of the empire... When I first started to play swg I joined the Reble side for the opression facter and the fact that i thought it would be harder to get things done....Boy was I a dumb arse.. population count ws 3 rebs to every imp at that time.. the atst's made the pvp fun . 5 imps with 2 atst and 25 rebs trying to figure out how to kick there butts...( the opression facter)it was a blast Hard as hell my friend and i works it out and started to make stratages to beat them...


Well then the atst nerf showed up ..... BORI:NG i could kill atst in 30 seconds and still can.. Now what we have is a zillion Rebs controling the game.. isnt that backwards.. So my buddys and i have started over on a new server we are all imps now So we can acutaly play and opressed faction...


So my question is the system is screwy.. My commando skills arnt worth anything anymore.. I want to fight a war but the nerf bat wont let us.. The Cry baby's are screaming nerf this nerf that . So SOE does and what happens the same cry baby's Say thats not fair... Now it nerf riffleman and combat medic's Because it to hard to fight them...My arse the reason it is to hard to fight them is because your to lazy to figure out how to beat them....but We all know the Bat is coming..


My word of advise to SOE is build the game as hard as possible Stop listening to the whiners and Lets get it on.. And make every profession worth playing... then just lets us play.. the Nerf screamers will leave the real player will stay and it will grow.. IE everquest.. the harder it got the more we played..


Well thanks for letting me Rant. if you want to flame me go for it ..but I can tell you this for sure I dont care what you think if you take the easy road...

Thats what i ment .. no one will use a atst in combat pvp now because a commando ( like my self}) or riffleman can take them out in no time...and it is a hell of alot of work to get the fp up there to get another....when I was a reb i loved going after them but since the nerf nah to easy... pvp is very mmm whats the word steral ( sp) grr...

Now to the 12 year old who posted this after my post Quote


you guys are pathetic. just a bunch of pansy imps crying about a few balancing changes to your new toy. well ya know what? your "useless" at-st is still better than anything the rebs have available to them faction wise. buck up and quit your sniveling.


-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------


this is a 12 year old kid who crys wolf ITS NOT FARE.. lol You need to read my post better... I have played both sides,,,,, I was a Reb first.. Who had to fight atsts before the nerf.. And i loved how hard it was to beat them.. At the time there is and still is more rebs on a server than imp SO the ATST was a great tool to keep the game real....And to the story line. The Empire is a mighty force opressiing its subjects ect to get what they want... The Rebs are a bunch of ragtag freedom fighters( under suplied underfunded and are supose to be less in strength.. fire power ect) thisd being the stoty line...

Now to a real RoLL PLAYER.. this is a great storyline to get into.. ( you probably wouldnt understand Since you bought your jedi off of ebay because it was easier)


Ok you turn Lets see if you can discuss this insted of flaming

while I agree with most of your points I feel obliged to correct you as to the matter of having Zero CHs in Star Wars.


The Rancor handler in Jabbas Palace would count as a CH I believe.

Whats interesting to notice was, the participation level and the server load and game was at its most populated point before the AT-ST was nerfed and Imperials were the strong force on every server.


Now they are hoping to save the game with the space expansion which I believe probably will. But they wouldn't even have to worry about saving the game if they hadn't nerfed the Imperials to death. Like some respectable rebels have said, the game was the most fun for them when there was a challenge which was fighting the Empire. Now there is no challenge and no challenge equals no fun. Its amazing the developers have not come to realize the cancelled accounts and low participation level is due to the fact of them nerfing everything to death.......
