Thread: Why SWG and the entertainer are BROKEN. Entertainer lead please read..
First, mind pool is completely broken. It's annoying enough to have three "health" type attributes in this game, but it's even worse to make one that cannot be repaired. What I'm saying is the mind pool is the only "health" based pool that cannot be healed! So in PVP what do you do? You target the mind pool because even with medics/dancers/your favorite bard character, you're SOL!
This leads me to my second comment which is really more for this section. Entertainers should be able to fix the mind pool. Yes I know we can heal BF and actual wounds. But nothing we do makes the mind pool regenerate faster or repair. This is just rediculous IMO. We are healing characters (like medics) but we can't even heal! If the devs need a "how would this even work in real life" thing.. Then think of it this way, like bards in other games, I should be able to play while in combat. I rally the group together! I give them more spirit to fight! I heal their mind in combat so they can focus more clearly. To me this is the single largest issue with the entertainer line and SWG.
thank you for listening to my rant....

I would love to see entertainers help with mind regen, however there may good reason we can't. For example, an entertainerand doctor (or image design for that matter) could pair up and esentially help each other power skill since they would probably never have to rest if the entertainer kept healing mind. In other words, there wouldn't be much of a penalty left for not having good mind stats (focus and willpower).
Having said that I'm not against the idea of mind healing, but I can see why it may not exist.
I'm not sure if entertainers help the white wounds. ...
Also, he's the entertainer Correspondent, not Lead. As in, he doesn't lead us, he Co-responds with us and for us to the Devs.

yes that's what it sounded like to me too and I agree ents should be able to heal white mind wounds. Btw no we can't currently heal them I've had many friends go incap with mid wound and no amount of playing helped them come back up quicker. The only cure for a person incapped in the mind is to lay a camp on them but that skill is not in the ent class.
I agree... this would be a great help for people in combat. I hate dieing do to the loss of my mind pool and if there was a way to help reduce the death from mind pool loss while fighting it would make the game just that much better. There needs to be a way to heal the mind pool while in combat theHAM pool sistem in my humble opinion is broke as long as there is no way to have your mind healed (while in combat).
I thought about chefs having ways to healmind in combatbut i like the idea of the musician or the dancer just a bit more.

Case in point - a brand new novice marksman can equip a rifle and very quickly take out another fighter type character with head/mind shots (I don't play any ranged fighters, but I know rifles do mind pool damage mostly). I dueled a buddy for fun, and I couldn't even hardly run up to him before he incap'd me with headshots.
this kind of goes along with my 'melee characters get raped in combat' complaint...

Please do. Obviously you need some hints. Rifles do normal ranged damage. Meaning: No Special, Random damage. This can hit the mind pool. Doesn't have to. You need HeadShot1, which comes at a cost, too. I agree PvP is broken, but it's not because of the HAM bars.
