There has already been enough posts on the forums about the melee stacking swordsman with either CM or DOC heals.


I just want to let you know about one thing that is making them even stronger.


You should see some of the power hammers on bria. They are insane. Ppl used the char transfer to come to bria with pre cu power hammers that converted with wicked damaged. Then before they transfered they put a damage power up on the hammer and after the transfer the power up was gone but the extra damage stayed. Now they can put another power up on it and some of these power hammers have over 1600 max damage.


You can put the blame for these on both the players and soe. The players for useing an exploit and soe for letting it happen.

That's pretty pathetic.


But on thehumorous side, imagine if you did that to a CDEF a few dozen times. O_o

I once had a Pike with -1 Dot uses. Then they soughtthem out and reset the Dot. I hid mine and eventualy the Dot was reset anyway. Then the CU and no Dot.


Time will find them out. For now, all I can say is Wow! Nice Hammer Dude.

so you do a character transfer to the server, pick up a weapon put a pup on it than transfer back to your original server and the pup stats stick to the weapon?

Or just go to eBay and buy a new weapon. What's the point? If you need one of these weapons to win, you will also need more, for you are a poor player.

I heard that there was a tuning exploit as well Flawless pearls that you can tune to 200 dmg.


Or how about when everyone said you gotta master swordsman to pick up jedi way back in '03 or whatever stupid rumor people like to spread then.


I can promise you, there is no 1600 or 1500 hammer in existence in SWG.

Simple test, someone on Bria that is using there free transfer put a pu on your weapon take a screenie and make sure the serial number is showing. Once you get to your new server take another screenie and prove it.

how do you know there isn't? as the OP stated they are bugging the system by a character transfer having their weapons PuPed before the transfer. it's the same thing as what happend pre-cu to the cu change.. weapons with Pups converted much much better than the same weapon without a pup. i guess soe was not able to figure out the code on how to figure out if a weapon had a pup or not during the conversion system, just like they left pre-cu sabers with no sac and stats that could not be achieved post-cu or the ones that placed their LS in their bank storage when the sac patch got placed. the same bug could and is probably still around and the way to take advantage of it is by character transfer.

A friend of mine recently did a character transfer with items. He took several weapons that all had powerups on them. The powerups were not absorbed into the weapon. The weapons arrived on the new galaxy with the same stats as they always had and with the powerups acting as normal.
