I think your right. BE is a broken class.


You are wrong to blame it on the DE's. Taking fixes from other classes will not help your class



And for the record, my interpretation is that DE's will be the only ones who can use/craft the combat *modules* (not models)

im not a CH you tard, BIO ENGINEER.....CRAFTING CLASS!!! afraid this are things a going to become unbalanced? whiny little......lol......and then to the poster about unloading with both barrels.....ok now go to lok with a kahmurra and see if it even makes it through 1 hit, the kahmurra is CL15 too. you wanna talk about whiny? take a look at the BE forum, its nothing compared to you guys, you complain like little girls about how your not getting your way, your not getting love, your were neglected as children. you wanna talk about whining? chefs dont whine anywhere near as bad as you saps and yet they are worse off than any of us.



Then when your profession gets a plan that will completely skew the balance of the game because you will become completely self reliant, you can craft all the tools you need to harvest all your resources, you can then craft all the weapons you will need in war, have a combat droid, and on top of all of this you will STILL be able to master an elite combat profession so how.....how is this not skewing the balance of the game? this is going to be like prenerf CH where every novice CH and his stepsister was running around with a rancor.

Lets see...to become completely self reliant as you say...

you would need to Master

Drid Engineer
Artisan


You would need at least two trees in Architect to make a house and harvestors for resources...3 trees if you want to make good experimented ones.

X number of trees of weaponsmith to make your weapon

X number of trees in armorsmith to make your armor

Master X combat class...




Well your reasoning is fairly flawed about giveing us combat droids making us 100% self sufficient...unless you got a heck of a lot more skillpoints than I did.

Btw...I'll just add again...Jesus you're whinny...

You are terrified someone is going to get something you aren't.


Now you just sound like a spoiled brat...again throwing a tantrum because Johnny may get a candy bar and you might not.

Lets see since you wanna compare BEs to DEs...you can make pets...we can make droids..


You can make stat enhancing tissues...we can ummm...oh wait we can't do that.

I guess I should go troll the BE forum and whine how they should be nerfed because they can do something I can't.

We should all stop responding in this thread and just one-star his a$$ outta here. He's clearly not going to "come around" and be reasonable. Glad he's not on my server.

You know, I don't like the Plan either, and I hate seeing us going towards a Combat class like Creature Handlers are, but.....well, the original post was just sorta sloppy. It wasn't arguementative, it was a "waa waa we're worse" one, which anyone can do really. Sure, BE's are hurting just as much as Droid Engineers are. But that doesn't mean we're all for this new plan.

How is a DE being able to call certain droids that he crafted that non-DE's cant any different from a CH taming acreature and selling it, or just taming one for himself to use?

mmm battle man in case u havent noticed, this game is made in a way so u can carry multiple professions, i just looked at the skill point calc and i realized how powerful u can possibly be if you do, up to explore 4, master ch, master be, and 2 line pistoleer. or u can give up the pistol defence skills and go novice medic to give urself the abilities to use stim bs. if you want to be pure be then that's just not the right way to play since u need ch to control the pets u make anyways. im a droid engi, 2 line pistoleer, 2 line medic, master artisan. that enables me the ability to fight and craft stuff. it's how u make ur character to have more fun. if you really don't enjoy the be profession then i suggest u try something else instead of waiting it to be fixed because whatever they fix will never satisfy anybody unless that profession becomes the most "uber" class in the game anyways.

Hello Mr. Clueless


We are HEAVILY reliant on MASTER ARTISAN. Furthermore, we need composite armor segments from armorsmith for our Level 6 armor. We need power units from architects for our power droids.

I think some of you need to read the plan again


It _doesnt_ say that _combat droids_ will become DE exclusive, it says _a new_ combat droid (note singular not plural) will be DE exclusive.


I dont see how that is any different to CH in that the skills they learn as a CH arent combat based either (further balanced by the fact that the plan statesyou will only be able to have 1 combat droid called). If you didnt become DE to do combat, simple, dont make it, its not like you can sell it to someone else to use anyway (we'll you could sell it to another DE but I'd expect the devs to put in a restriction so that if you cant make it you cant use it) and I dont see this turning DE's in uber killing machines (not next to the CH with multiple creatures called anyway)

Uhhh...you're saying that Weaponsmith can't shoot the gun he makes?

You sure about that?!?

Quit complaining. CH's get CH only pets. Architects are getting new stuff for player cities. RIS armor is in the works. Krayt items enhance weapons and armor. What does a DE have that's being tested and not just something jotted down at a meeting as a plan for the future? Scream nerf. I've got two weapons: /ignore and the ban feature on my shop.


DE's have been neglected since the game came out, it's about time we see something that helps us out a little. Do you really think a DE only droid will be as powerful as a CH with 2 Graul Maulers, 3 Narglatches, or even a torton?

OMG are you insane? lol Yes they made some referance to some elusive DE combat droid. But we dont even know what they mean. It could just mean we are getting new modules for the droids we already make or maybe we will get a droid that only we can use. And even if they did mean a combat droid was going to be usable by DE's only, how great do you think that droid is going to be? Have you even tried using a probot? If its anything like the droids we have now I dont envision any DE's running off to Dantooine and running 10K missions with it.I dont work for SOE so I cant tell you and from the sound of your post you certainly dont work for them either, so maybe you should keep your speculations to yourself until they actually fill us in more.


As for you whining about your profession, well get use to it. The majority of professions in this game have issues. If you dont like they way your profession is going, switch. You are complainging that you cant have a combat skill cause you are too busy "wasting" your skill points on Ranger and BE maybe they arent the careers for you.


We all have an issue or two with our professions. I for one would like it if DE had more than 1 teir of useful selling items. (where as all other elite artisian professions have numerous teirs of items they can sell to the general public of their galaxy). But Im certainly not going to run to their boards and demand they be "nerfed" I would rather try offering suggestions to the DE board of what I like to envision DE becoming. Just because your profession isnt exactly how you want it doesnt mean everyone elses needs to be broken.


As for you whinying about the fact that you have to gather so much meat. Deal with it. I cant even begin to tell you how much inorganic resources I have gone through. Yea sure a DE using inorganics can just plop down a few harvestors and let them do the work, but that costs money and I hate to say it unless you are a Master... you arent making any money.


im sorry to see that you are SO UNHAPPY with your life that you have to try and make everyone as miserable as you are. Please dont bother us with your ranting. I hope you have the good sense to not bother posting on the BE boards either. Im sure they dont want to hear from you and your bad attitude either.
