Thread: Health Crystals
i dont see how it ruins PvP at all, i am a BH and do not have one of these and i do just fine fighting high end Jedi all the time. I do agree that the people who hoard them can get the advantage but then make it bio linked then and you can only bio link one that way all the other ones they have are useless to them, then he either gives them to friends, sells them, or uses them for decor. I just believe that they have earned that reward and should be able to use it. I am just sick of seeing or hearing nerf this and that but who cares of the bugs as long as they can make it so my LvL 50 guy can hold his own against that LvL 80 toon. I just want to see some of the major bugs fixed before they go around nerfing stuff. I have been sitting on a ticket for my FS quest now for 2 days waiting for it to unluck a row for me, and these peeps are worried about nerfing a crystal, just peevs me is all. They is alot of work that needs to be done to make this game fun again.
2 more cents from me. 
It was originally intended to replace a doctor buff.
So if they want to convert it correctly in the CU it would give a 10% health bonus (~300 health not 2000)

I just find this thread.... REDICULOUS.... Nerf this nerf that because he has what I have not or more of it....boo hoo
The people that are writing this game or developing spend more time NERFING it than CORRECTING the BUGS because people like the guy who started this thread and support his NERFING vendetta spend more time whining about haves and have nots rather than focussing the efforts and activists stance on fixing the BUGS that are RAMPANT out there. Odds on probablyevery third or fourth mission out there is bugged. PVE is royally lacking etc etc Mounts and vehicles not working properly, system crashes, BUGGED MISSIONS.... hey did I mention BUGGED MISSIONS.......
Why not simply limit certain items to be NON tradeable OR playerslimited to a certain number of HIGH END items.. stop whining NERF NERF NERF....
FORCE BIO LINKING on all Specialty (OR UBER to use a worn out abused adjective) on Weapons, Armours, Loot,Crystals, Pearls Vehicles.......
BOTTOM LINE THIS WHOLE FRIGGIN CU is WAY AHEAD OF SCHEDULE.... I suppot the idealogy of CU and the game was in need of a fusion of newer approaches to compete in the market place etc etc BUT DAMMITIT IS NOT READY!
Not a question of whether one can cope and survive etc etc etc BLA BLA BLA in this CU anyone with tenacity and effort could survive on the streets if they were forced to live there... Black and White CU is NOT READY!
Maybe what SOE should have done or do .... lol indirectly did in someways ..... SIMPLY BANTHE OLDER PLAYERS AND START A COMPLETELY NEW GAME targeted at EQIQs....... IN WITH THE NEW! S c r e w the past.......
These days you have all these so called Truly Experienced players turning on each other because CU is so NOT READY! We're all upset and pissed off whether we show it or deal with it on forums or not! The problem is the anger is directed at the players that bear arms with you in the game we all supposedly love?!
If you want to give SOE and the Devs some real FRUITFUL advice tell them to SHUT EVERYTHING DOWN until it is ALL balanced and neat and tidy!
Don't go drumming up rediculous complaints like this....."Health Crystals need to be Nerfed!" Holy RIP! THERE ARE A BILLION things that need fixing before that.... WOW?!
I support a CU that FIXES things BEFORE THEY NERF THEM!

Health crystals need a NERF.
Should be +200 bonus, not +2000.
Thought the CU was to rebalance......
Amazing.
Do you know that it's this kind of mindset that can translate into genocide and civil war.
Please extinguish the crack pipe.
Actually I have two of these and they run on seperate timers so a person can use one and then the other.

agree with eggshen, any player with money can purchase 3 or 4 of these things easy enough and run around overpowered in game because of them. If you have five of these and use one, the other four will go on the same timer as the one you used. You cannot use one, then use another, then another and so on. Therefore, all that player did was waste credits.
not sure I agree with 200, but 2000 is too high (in my opinion)
I like how the crystals are now. they give the player a chance to be a versatile combantant without going the way of the jedi.
I have seen several jedi on lowca and we'll only see more if we just base our characters on their generic classes. We need items like this, so normal players can have an ace up their sleeves in troubling times.
Besides in a major PvP battle it won't help that much,it doesn't matter how much health you have when you're being assaulted by 4 jedi guardians/masters simultaneously... "you can not Knockdown recover while knockeddown"
Of course no matter if jedi are present are not...if a group is attacking you and they know what they're doing...then you will go down no matter the size of your health bar.
These crystals mostly help in the one-on-one game and that's a high stakes game.
