well, I am just tired of not getting any dev's attendsions, and I believe many of you DE feel the same way. Our class was broken since the beginning of the game, andI been having faith in the dev hoping that they will help us soon. Yet, after more then 2 moths of waiting. The only changes that i can really recall is the nerf on probot the only thing that really sells, making us DE worst then it ever was. DE has been going down the toilet ever since that happened. Whileother classes, maybe slow, but getting way better then it was when the game first realise. Even our friend CH might have been nerf once, but from the large amount of people playing CH, we can see all the add-on or fixed DEVs gave to the CH outbit that smallnerf. After letting the CH sell the lvl 15 pets, which are mostly stronger the way the probot was. The Devs evenlet them getcreature mountwhich let them make more money selling dewback beforewe don't even now if the DEs are the only people that canbuild and sell hover bike.I say we DE should unite together and all cancel our subscription for 1 month and see if the de gona start working on our class problem or not. If not just keep going until they do.


I played almost all the MMRPG games there is, eventhough this might be the game that is most interesting because of it's story back ground. I must say the service is the worst. Or maybe it's just because I been playing DE all the time.


there are my info, just to prove that I will stop the subscribtion for one month and not show up on my server. if you are willing to join me please do the same.


Server: Waterhome


Character name: Fallen

Come on guys. Do you honestly think this is going to accomplish anything? No one, least of all the devs, are going to give this strike a moment's notice. You'll only hurt yourselves. I'm as frustrated as everyone else with the osrry state of the DE profession, but I have faith it will be fixed in time. A strike is childish. Be patient.

Please shut your pie-holes you whiney bastards and go play a dancer or something. I'm sick to death of people asking for a general player strike in new posts. If you don't like the way your class is right now then for Pete's sake just play another class.


SOE is working on class issues as they get to them. They are aware of our problems and will get to them when they can... (then again it took them a whole 4 years to fix Rangers in EQ) but rest assured DE's will get their fix. It may not be exactly how you want things, but eventually it will be better than it is now.


We have a list of issues posted and SOE has them. Crying about it everyday on the boards only clogs them up and buries posts that actually may serve to help the community.


I used to read these boards religiously, but of late the only thing on the first two pages are issues that have already been pointed out/discussed. Now it takes me 20 minutes just to sift through the garbage to find something worth reading.


There are FAQ's. There are DE Issues. There are Guides. If you don't have anything to contribute other than to express your dissatisfaction with the class, then don't post a "Me Too"reply in a thread that has already been started.

Should not contain the word "don't".


Wanna know the number one feature that should be fixed? Allow an EDIT button in the bloody forums!

Acinonyx_sw look if this is how the person wants to show there disgust about the state of the DE in game now then great for them. If he gets ppl to go along with it even better.So with that in mind maybe you should shut your pie hole nothing worse than someone whineing about some one else whineing.As for them haveing a list and working on the stuff show me or anyone else here how you know there working onanything. Cause they sure as heck have not posted in these boards in a very long time about any progress there makeing on said improvements from the list they have now have they. They could be playing poker and laughing at all the DE for all you know and most likely are doing just that.As for you gaining info here id suggest the CH boards cause thats where the DEVs spend there time.The devs would actually have to post somthing here for you to learn anything new and as we see thats not going to happen.

Oh please.....you know as well as I do if people stop selling droids there are going to be a few who do for the money and everyone will flock to them...you'll only be causing a rush for droids and create the sinkhole the devs want...they'll love you for it ^_^

Well I remember something very similar in EQ. It was with the Paladin class, they sucked basically and were not getting any loving at all, mostly useless tank class and unwanted in groups.


The players eventually had a gut full of this and the fact they were constantly ignored. So they decided to have a "sit in" this works great to do it you need the following.



  1. Enough people who are effected by this and supporters who believe in it

  2. A zone that you know when over populated is lagged to hell

  3. A agree'd day and time.

  4. Conviction to carry it through.

On Fennin Ro, all the Paladins and supporters camped the entrance to Freeport (for those not familar a major city in EQ's early days) the camp grew and grew. People arrived and sat down, more and more came till the zone crashed. It came back up, we logged back in and did it again. eventually we got the attention we wanted one of the Devs arived in the form of a Giant Gnome and wanted as all to leave. NOPE!


We agreed to leave if we could have 1 or 2 corespondants have a MATURE chat with him about our issues and see what could be done. This is what happened. Of course there was the threat of we will keep doing this till we get at least some answers as well. Gotta have leverage! lol


Now yes this is griefing the rest of the community that comes to that area, because the lag become horendious and they complain. Its bad attention but at least it is some attention! Now from memory (and this is going back now about 2+ years) there was over 200 people crammed in that zone and there is no way for them to ban us all.


I sugest we do this on mass across the servers, it will take time to orginise and pick the right spot we know will cause a problem if we over populate it. LOL Anywhere on Tat springs to mind!


Maybe then by making a pain in the a$$ of ourselves we can get some deserved attention!
