People have said that the new XP is about 1/6 the current group XP. I know my math is not the greatist but @ 1/6 earned XP doesent it make FS combat & reflexes basicaly 180:1 (1/6 X 1/30)over the current 30:1? and 180:1 over what was 3:1 combat? I am already done with FSbut it still effects me and everyone else. For anyone who is thinking they are still tweaking the #rs I don't buy it for a second, if they did not intend on severly nerfing xp they would not start it so low. charector development is not something that should be a full time job, I feel sorry for the people that try to do jedi casualy because now in 2007-8 when you are just finishingthere may be SWG2 then it is time to start over........

Rage of the Wookies....... 30$ X 2 60 $
Trials of Obi Wan ............ 30$ X 1 30$ (not 2 because of impending doom)

Paying 1,170$ and spending 1000+ hrs developing charectors and gathering items only to be told go f--- yourself .......Priceless

God I hope they don't do that lol. Now that would weed the people that power grind and put there life in the closet on hold, and the people who threw their life down the garbage disposal.

Its good and bad. It will probably discorouage grinders. So much, that it might in fact make the grind too hard. The grind should be hard, but not so hard thats its bascially impossible to do it.

Hard and time consuming and boring are not the same thing.

Sadly SOE messed things up so bad and will continue to do so that this game will not last to much longer. Too many people are quitting and the new players get discouraged and quit also. They made this game one huge grind and it is no longer fun to play, not to mention all the bugs. I for one am sick of beta testing this game.

if this is turning out to be the beta, then i certainly dont want to see the final version ^^




I finished jedi on my main long ago and used the double xp time on my twink to open all needed lines too andiam all against the actual changes!


The jedi population boom is SOLELY caused by nade grinders!

Now everyone trying to beat the grind is screwed because of that 300k+FS xp per hournade tards. Soe got several chances to just alter nade xp to heavy weapon xp but instead of a simple fix they leaved thatfor months and months!

A naded mob yielded 5000 combat xp + 500 combat xp = 1833.33 FS XP per mob while normal professions got like 333.33 FS XPper mob (5000weapon / 30 + 500combat / 3) Now they just try to fix all the holes and jedi overpopulation and punish the just started grinder.


This is a joke and a slap in the face of the honest player!


well, although iam done with the fs grind on both my chars, i sense a big unfairness here and beg you guys to rise your voice and give them trouble! Thats not the way a company should treattheir customer/gamer.

It's not soley caused by the nade grinders. The Double XP snafu is the real cause. You'd get 14k for a bol , when you converted the 14k into FS you would get 933 FS XP instead of 466 because if a flaw in the double XP system.


During the double XP months people were really getting 4x FS xp because of lack of coding and lack of foresight abilities.


Just wait, when pub 22 crashes all the servers they will give another Double XP year and everyone while murdering bols and hitting up the village.

/agree

Nothing in a game should be impossible. If this isn't a bug theres probably a way around it. When and if i find it ill write another grind post.

so, as ive been working on FS for a while- im more of a casual grinder - on my fighter character (the other is a crafter) its now unlikely that i will be getting my last 4 FS trees. So......its looking easier to grind my FS and jedi by becomming Droid engineer and making binary chassies with my crafter alt. just need that 14mill resources.....(and two other trees - from merchant xp perhaps)

Hey MR. caps manthis is goingfrom the release noteson testing 8/15. This alsowas put in on the test of publish 19 or 20 then revoked due to people being pissed off about it. Thenthey didn't sayanything and did a big combat xp nerf. Now the original nerf is back, as if nothing has happened trying to pull the same crap.


On another note regrinding templates (not that you ever would cause nothing ever gets nerfed in this game) should be made easier like if you have mastered pistoleer next time the boxes should cost you .5 the original or something like the way it is done for space. I fkn hate grinding

First off ... they said that the group xp change was postponed. So stop bitching that they did not say anything about it.

If u hate sooooo much grinding, don't even dare to go Jedi, coz u'll whine ever more.
