Thread: Miss Exceptional Weapons?
Message Edited by Alristico on 09-29-2005 10:43 AM
Well not really expectional but i also miss the good old CM mind poisions or expectional high janta buffs etc. Dunno why jedis are complaining about BH/CM now. Pre-CU with those strong mind poisions (over 1K easily possible) a jedi knight used up his ~7000 force rather quickly trying to regain his mind all the time until brandy or aitha/canape weared off and they couldn't keep healing against mind and health except of master healer which used up there force even faster anyway if your tactic was right. These fights were thrilling. You needed to change your tactics rather often while fighting and it was something if you have won.
Jedi/BH was unballanced in just one way... A fresh padi could get stalked by 5 BH all the time.
Not a lot of people got Janta buffs or high mind poisions. You had to work hard and long to get a decent amount so you could use it on a regular basis, so things like this were never an issue.
Being BH now is boring. Being Jedi is boring, too especially now that nearly everyone is jedi or is on there way to get one except the few pure crafters left. 1on1 PVP fights can take hours of boring run and hide in cloak etc. Don't get me wrong but this game has lost a awful lot of possibilities for PVP and PVE, it's all the same now. Non Jedi/BH templates are used for FS grind in 70-80% of the cases or doing jobs for jedis/bh's.
This is rediculus! Every profession was unique to another back then and had its strong pro's and cons. Now you just have everyone running around with the same template with low differs.
Jedis affected the same as non-jedi melee and ranged. I don't know a single full temp ranged class fighter without routing abilities. They all pick some pistoleer or smuggler but mostly pistoleer. At least take it back to where it was and make pistoleer specials only available for pistoleers, double-bladed lightsaber specials only usable on double-bladed etc. so we get more unique templates.
Once the majority of templates were unique except of armor. Real hardcore solo PVE'ler were all swordsman/doc but what was wrong about that anyway?
Now you have 3 types of armor used and everything else isn't unique anymore. All what's left unique is pre-cu stuff cause you can't loot it anymore well that pretty sums it all up, rest is nerfed. If they have forgotten something to nerf i'm sure someone will find out and they will nerf it as fast as possible. That's what the CU did and that's what SOEs policies are now.
This is turned into a "used to be fun" game. Most players still play it because they have hope for future patches or don't know the old days. But for how long will everyone still be on this? For how long will you play a game which could be cool again in the future when all what they ever did was nerfing?

I myself didnt have any exceptional weapons ..just some good ones but I agree with Ullysses......equalizing this game like they have done was just plain stupid and ruined a very unique game!
The have-nots are always whining about the haves just like in real life....and in swg their whines seem to have prevailed.

I never said the weapon selection isn't bland now because of the CU. Did I? Well Did I? I'm kind of sick of people responding to stuff I didn't say. Please show me where I said "eqalizing this game like they have done wasn't just plain stupid and ruined a very unique game"
Now about the have-nots always whining about the haves. There are tons and tons and tons of crap that I don't have but want. And I'm not whining about any of it. The only thing I am complaining about are players with these types of weapons....

That is god mode and it ruins the game for everyone else. If you don't agree than you've gotyour head up your butt. Stop being ignorant.

It makes me ignorant to use a weapon that I looted? Ive noticed that the people that start the name calling, are usually the idiots.... thanks for proving me right, again.
