It was "too hard" for the crybaby kids to make Jedi.


Other than that, no problem.

All I remember was that I got my 5th one silent, ground out two more professions and had to quit for a few months. When I came back the Village was in place. What was the justification for making Jedi a linear quest?

which is ironic because a full blown hologrind is less xp then the village.

in theory yes, but the difference between the two is. changing profession and consistantly starting at lvl 1 and rebuilding and rebuying. where as now.. you just get2 professions..and cap xp...over and over and over again, in a spin group, where you're pulling in cap in like.. 3hours. insted of fighting solo.. /shrug


The hologrind was surely a more.. mental game.

And that was it? They nerfed the System to make Jedi easer to get, and now they are Nerfing the Jedi because their are to many of them?


I thought there was some problem with content or exploiting

Yeah, know there wasn't. i'm just putting it into retrospect. just incase we have people reading, and they weren't here at the time.. it'll give them a better understanding of pain.

There were lots of "Hologrind is ruining the economy" and "Hologrind is ruining Galaxies" posts... same old same old.

Well I do remember that Holos where one of the first big ticket items along with crystals but surly the one inflated item was not enough to start a tail spin?

no. it was just a excuse for those that didn't have the money, or didn't want to spend the money, to get started on the path of jedi. which is why they wanted hologrinding removed so bad, along with saying.."hologrinders are ruining our profession". But i still fail to see how someone coming into the profession, crafting everything in practice mode..and leaving (or staying if they liked it), ruining their profession. i mean..if you calculate how much one spends in that grind its stupid.


spent at least 10-15mil on the grind resourrces alone. God only knows how much i spent on weapons and armor... **edit** the hologrind was filling all of these peoples pockets.


But no.. its too hard.. its not fun, its not easy.. it should be a quest... but not a unknown path.. a known one. welcome to today.

Your joking right? The hologrind was much faster. You could doa combat proffession in about a day and a 1/2 and most artisan proffessions could be done afk. The village is a time gate, nothing more. It forces people to have to wait at least 18-20weeks to become Jedi. If they left the old system in place there would be even more Jedi than there are now. I actually know ppl who gave up on Jedi because they didn't feel like doing the fs grind. I bet I could grind out all 31 professions in the old system in about8 weeks maybe even less if I got lucky and guessed my secret proffs. I just love it how ppl say they had it tough grinding out professions to unlock Jedi. I'd rather do that than the boring fs grind/ village quests.
