Thread: My Jedi Thoughts
Please keep in mind as you read this that i have never been a Jedi and am curently awaiting for the old man to show up with his zimmer frame and show me the way ![]()
Not only that i've only just come back to the game so am still a bit noobish to whats changed and what hasn't since my absence. Since i've been back i've been reading alot of post on the forums and msot of what i've read is "non jedi" complaining about jedi and "jedi" complaining about all the nerfs. And the main one is "Theres too many Jedi"
Well from a view of a Star Wars fan, (not a fanatic) just a fan, i mean i don't the insides and out of everything, i do believe there a few things that can be done for both sides of this concurring story.
"My Views"
Well to be honest if you ask me, yeah the Jedi have been nerfed alot to bring them in line with all the the other proffesions, and yeah i can see why, to make the gameplay especially in pvp more on par for "Everyone". However if i stand back and think about this to me it seems so so wrong, Just look at the "Star Wars Stories" are the Jedi not the ultimate character ? I mean come on jedi should be the hardest proffesion to master and to defeat. To defeat they are not the hardest really, yeah they ain't no push over but still i believe its too easy for a jedi to be taken out.... To master ? well from Force Sensative to starting the Jedi trials is a 3 month i think, that is just about right, then from Jedi Padwan onwards your looking at a nasty grind. So it isn't really that easy to become a Jedi and i think the Devs have that just right, however for something that takes that long, your not gonna want a nerfed character at the end of it.
***im not talking about making jedi invincable, it would just mean non-jedi would have to carefully plan how to take them out, ambushes etc, groups etc, and if the jedi were really that hard to defeat the rewards should be tremendous***
As i said above the most complaints i see are theres too many Jedi... i can see both sides here, and it is really a yes and no. The jedi were nearly wiped out and are now rebuilding. So bottom line no there isn't too many Jedis.
I think the real problem is, there are too many jedi just taking out their sabers, attacking people, showing off and not enough consequences for the actions. Bring back the losing xp on deaths i hear a lot of people saying, and i think thats not an answer. Thats just too much of a punishment. From a few games i've played before i've thought of this. Something along the lines of, upon a jedi's death he/she is given an xp debt of say 10000. From then onwards until that debt is repaid all xp is divided, half goes to his/her debt and the other he/she keeps ???
There is however a need for a system to be implemented for jedi so if a jedi does something un-jedi like theres a lot of repercussions. Not too sure how this would be done and im open to suggestions. But keep it real...
Im going to do some more thinking on this and post some more in a few days, please feel free to add suggestions. But please no flaming other professions/players. Instead come up with ideas which will keep everything in line with what this game is modeled on "The Star Wars Universe"
