Fix theweapon speed forumla either so that pistoleers shoot a max of once/second (as it is now), carbineers shoot once/1.5 seconds max and riflemen shoot once every three seconds max. Similar changes need to be made to melee and to lightsabers.

Limit defense stacking even more, if professions were meant to have 125 melee defense, 125 ranged defense and 125 dodge I'm sure it would have been put in the game from the start.

So that all classes can make at least some contribution in every fight, no mob should ever have 100% resistance to kinetic or energy damage. Also get rid of the armour levels on mobs and give themresists onlyso that damage type actually becomes more relevant than just weapon AP level (example Krayt Dragon with heavy armour 70% resist except for 20% to cold but the only cold weapon in game is AP0 meaning that a heavy or medium AP weapon will still do more damage despite the higher resists).

Shorten base vulnerability times to 30 minutes, and make the defenders, who are trying to shut down the base destruction sequence, type in a code similar to the structure deletion code.
If you choose to read more, here are the reasons: A two hour window is way too much time for a casual gamer who only has 5 hours tops each night. The code is to give the attackers, who are trying to destroy the base, a chance to kill the defense stackers who are zerging in for the base destruction sequence shut down. I posted a thread on the GCW boards and in the IConcept thread for July 18th also.
Thanks!

Make the game more about Roleplaying interesting characters rather than having the best combat abilities, most buffs, best armour and heighest PvP kill points.

Make stats(abilities) more functional than just pool burn and refresh rates.
ie.
- Strength affects amount of melee damage done
- Constitution affects poison/disease resists and heal effectiveness(Doc heal more on a High Con char than low Con)
- Quickness affects physical action/activity speed barring animation limitations
- Stamina affects Physical Burn Rates and wound resistance
- Focus determines applicable skill effectiveness (modified by Battle Fatigue)
- Willpower determines Battle Fatigue accumilation rate and resists the negative effect of Battle Fatigue on skill effectiveness

Or let chefs create food that will give high resist to posion and disease....food should be used for more things than to buff your HAM.

I hope this will cross the Devs' noise threshold.
Speed cap rifles and heavy weapons at 3.0 secs and medium weapons at 2.0 secs. If a weapon has AP3 it should be capped at 4 secs.
