I think the dev's are just paranoid about getting the games balance wrong, what they fail to realise is that its not balanced as it is. While we are not the only prof with problems, we are always the ones which get ignored. We have come up with ideas which would solve fears of balance, and despite what the dev's may say, are not impossible to implement, tricky maybe, but not impossible. If the game was only around 3 months old, then I could understand, but they have had 8 months at least to sort out the problems with our proffesion, yet they dont. I do think though that what TH said was a simple slip of the tounge, something that he hadnt thought through properly and didnt realise the implications it would have, heres hoping that we will get something resembling usefulness soon.

And the missing 1/6?


We don't know, we don't have character copy yet.






Fractions suck! lol ok, 1/2 = 3/6, 1/3 = 2/6 and the remainder is 1/6, adding up to 1. What missing 6th were you talking about? Or maybe I'm thinking too much.... it's dangerous to do that after spring break, kids.

LOL you are right. I thought you had also said 1/6 missing, hehe.


Still funny though .

I'm sorry guys. Droids are a cool part of game and I feel bad they are not getting attention. I would rather see people running around with droids than gurrecks or any other creature. The game is coming to a slow grinding halt for fun So much potential for this theme and so little effort put in.

Sigh. Unfortunately, I lurk on these boards all the time. I come here in the hopes of finding a glimmer of light at the end of the tunnel.Just alittle something that would make the droidsa little more useful. Something that would appeal to everyone in the game.


I have now been a Master DE since about 2 months after the game started, and have stuck it out all this time. I guess us DE's are just persistant and/or stupid.


I read the patch notes, then came here hoping against hope that the community had heard some extra little something. The glimmer of light I was looking for.


Sad to say, I'm not finding it. Just more of the same. I suppose I will continue grinding away at my pistol skills until the time comes I have to start taking skill points away from DE to continue on in my combat profession. Apparently, the only way to play this game is as a fighter. Unfortunately, this doesn't really appeal to me as much as DE does.


Sigh.. I am getting awfully tired of being dissapointed. Still, the game holds some fun for me. But how long can I holdback the tide offrustration I feel welling up in me?
