Does this mean that Raphayl Blade ideer will be dropped. Even though we have a great new correspondent, we shouldnt forget the old one.

Junti Mace is in game, however no one has accomplished getting one and has said something about it.
Whatever manner Raphayl is memorialized with it will take a very long time to design and code the final result so that it is worthy of her memory.

Thanks Minerunner, i've been actively reading the other forums searching for "clues" on what to expect with this new CR, and whether it be because I overlooked something , or it just wasnt there, you have given the most information/ heads up then most.

That's probably because I've been actively trying to figure out how I can say as much as I can without saying what I can't.
Not that the others aren't doing their jobs, and realistically I'm not telling you anything that isn't something that goes without saying.
And there is ALOT I'm not saying, but mostly that has to do with things that need specifics. Like numbers... numbers are bad... comparisons are bad... specifics are bad... drugs are bad... mmmmkay.
But generalizations that basically cannot be proved wrong are good.
I really do wish I could tell you more, as it's all very cool. But even in my genious I can only say so much.

Thanks for the response Minerunner, thought it would take longer to change professions, good to hear that I may have been wrong.
So, with JtL being released in 2 days, when are we seeing the CR documents? Yes I am annoying, but I really want to see them before I decide to renew my accounts and buy JtL, no way I am committing on blind faith. No offense to you or the testers, but with all the previous promises and initial testing with other revamps (Jedi, which I participated in and supported, till it got completely off track and watered down in the end) I am skeptical of what the result will be compared to the preliminary promises.
Note to explain my impatience, and I know you can not say anything, more of a vent to make me feel better:
I have been waiting for this revamp for a year now, I have suffered through professions that were supposedly already balanced with this revamp (orthe combat balance), my patience is running thin, and I am not willing to pay while I wait anymore.
Edit: Minerunner, no need to respond, more of a post so that any wandering SOE people can see some people are getting impatient for their marketing decisionson releasing information that will affect customers decisions on purchasing the expansion and renewing their subscriptions.

right on, anything that will get someone into a specific mindset will only set them up for a dissapointment when the revamp actually arrives. Personally i'm going Jedi on one character, opening up the second slot and resuming my Fencer career.
we need t-shirts "fencer or bust" or something stupidly cheesy like that =/
Personally i've stopped even trying to speculate as i don't want to get my hopes up. I like fencer and its a fun prof to play. Can't wait to see how combat is affected, and hopefully its soon =/ CM's, DoT weapons, and Jedi are killing pvp on my small server of Shadowfire.

Jump to Nerf Speed is what I always called it and it seems that I was correct in the fact that they are going to nerf everything and make us all start our professions from scratch because the kick butt templates that are being used by the Loot Ho's will soon be nerfed. 
Personally I'm tired of having to change my templates everytime they nerf us. I had Master TKA/Commando/Marksman for 6 months and finally ditched Commando and Marksman because they took for ever to do this revamp. Now that I'm Master TKA/Swordsman/Fencer, they're going to nerf that and make start anew.
May have to leave SWG like everybody else if they keep this up.

Kaya what can you possibly be reading that makes you think everyone's Used skill points are going away and you'll have to start over from scratch?
It's been stated that when the Combat Upgrade hits you will get what ammounts to /restart Conversion command where you will get to respend all your spent skill points to change professions to something that suits your style. Or you will be able to Not respend them and stay the same.
Also there is nothing in JTL that is a Nerf to the ground game. So you aren't supposed to earn as much credits with solo groups as you did. But they are putting in a massive new loot revamp which adds a whole lot of loot drops to the ground game, some old some new. Also ground NPC's are dropping far more credits with the loot revamp part 1.
I really don't understand what information you could possibly be getting that is causing you to react in such a way.
