Hehe, first time I tried this old rumour, pre CU, I got a 50/50 -9FC and I was convinced it was true. But 15 or so premium tunes later, and one got to -2/-2 0FC....so pretty sure it doesn't help
Otherwise, nice post. Too many of the crybaby jedi here moan that good tunes are impossible. I dunno about anyone else, but +90 tunes sound good to me

See, for a little perspective, I do pretty darn well in 1v1 combat... with ANYONE... i dont always win and sometimes get beaten in short order.... BUT when a pre-cu jedi can hot a master defender 4 times and he's incapped... while running aura AND healing and buffed.. and doped up.... something is just plain wrong.
We NEED those pearls to drop again. And we need to adjust the HAM and force cost of SABER attacks as well.
I agree, but until the FRS hits this won't be an issue. The only issue for me regarding pearls and crystals right now is the jedi/BH relationship. I want all my jedi friends in game to have good enough sabers to fight off at least 80% of the hunters they face, so that's why I farm crystals for them. I frarely even charge them for it, if I know they have a rubbish saber. I have helped a friend get to 650 mac damage on a post CU saber; one of the crystals I got for him is 105/105.
Once the FRS starts again, all jedi will have the same opportunities as each other to excel. Until then we just sit and wait, and have what fun we can
The problem with that is that Pre-CU Jedi (well excluding me and those that unlocked just prior to CU for fear of the unknown) will have a huge head start if we just "sit and wait" until the frs comes out. So if the FRS came out with TOW and they also fixed the pearls/crystals then we would have to devote a lot of time trying to upgrade our sabers just to catch up. Hell I spend almost all my playing time hunting Krayts have killed between 750-1000 I am sure and still only have a 636 max damage 16 FC saber. I know it is better than some but until they fix the tuning(if they refuse to drop premium crystals/pearls) atleast give the good pearls/crystals a slightly better chance of tuning perfect. I don't believe any Jedi that says they have tuned a post cu "good" pearl/crystal to 120 -9FPC -.25. Maybe they have tuned high damge but low FC or low speed. I have a 109 -5 but the speed it an eye popping -.01. That makes a huge difference in the speed of a saber. Oh well I guess I could try ebay..........

pre-cu will have a huge head-start on what? have you heard something bout the frs? why would you think that you would start at the same place as gaurdian pre-cu? has something been posted?honestly i dont care either way anymore, just wondering what information your using. one thing i have learned though..we should all be careful what we ask for. an example..jedi used to complain that all they were is healers with flashlights....now we just have flashlights.

No they get a head start by having a much bettersaber to start with. That is all I am saying. I don't think sabers should be nerfed at all I think they just need to tweek the tuning process.

i believe they are working on a solution on how to properly implement them into the game. krayts as they are now are too easy to farm and when they were very high levels would one-hit kill you. they'll figure something out..i wouldnt worry to much bout that. i know crappy sabers suck..just hang in there. i would venture to guess that the younger ones will have it much better off in the end, though i know its hard to see atm.

fixt for you
i dont know where you go the dozens figure from, but as a friend of mine put it, when she asked how many crystals she would need A YEAR BEFORE she unlocked, she was told it depends on luck, but averages out to about 350 or so. so she hoarded crystals in the bank, in storage houses, in droids until the magic 350 number was reached. post cu unlockers who didnt put this type of preperation into what they were doing dont deserve better sabers.
i tuned over 200 pearls/crystals pre-cu, still dont have the perfect saber, i could boost the damage by 15 or so, maybe knock .1 from the speed if i wanted to tune 200 more(which i dont) so stop whining and start farming all you post cu unlockers. you would think you were suprised by the unlock the way your going on about this.
Not up to you who "deserves" what. Maybe some of us liked playing and not holo grinding or maybe some of us liked pvp'ing much more than we did farming krayts. Hell I didn't even decide to go Jedi until I heard about the cu. I unlocked pre cu but didn't have time to grind fs and hunt krayts at the same time. I have been playing for aslong if not longer than you and for you to tell me what I deserve and not deserve because of how I liked to play the game is idiotic. Nobody saw the nerf coming to pearls not exactly like SOE gives anyone warning when they decide to nerf something. Don't go around telling people you don't know and don't know how they played what they deserve and don't deserve.
