Jedi Archive

we had it easy? jedi post cu had it harder not flaming or arguing just stating my opinion. I remember those days when u would go grind xp on your own, its so much different now. I remeber trying to grind out 1mill xp solo, haha that would take quite a while, the good old days hehe. I hope star wars galaxies gets there act together and does make us 1.5x stronger as a knight and up with the frs...because currently bounty hunters say, "wahahha we can kill the hardest jedi"....i laugh ROFL when i hear this cuz no bounty hunter can kill a knight or higher. maybe the bh's will whine and cry some more and the devs will nerf us more so they can havea fighting chance, lol, or maybe the devs will finally realize they need to fix our profession and not shaft us .

To any jediwho have questions about there profession im always here to help, cuz we were allbeginner jedi at one point, and i would 100% rather helpany jedi out than a bounty hunter hehe

may the force be with you

Also, make this thread grow, add to it, let everyone know that its hard, but its far, far from over and things are going to be this way (hopefully, nefin devs) for long.

BTW how do u Pre Cu jedi feel about this?

i made a post before about the jedi grind pre-cu and post-cu the difference was this even if you were to master all the professions meaning you would have definitely unlocked jedi regardless of holocrons then you wouldnt have close to the grind for the xp needed for the village now. basically pre-cu unlocked jedi faster then post-cu, only difference ive even heard about was that BH was a hard profession to master, and maybe some others as far as low xp, like merchant can only get xp from people buying stuff but im sure you all know the tricks to grinding things like they used to master doctor in one day with combat rolls on roof tops and artisan macros and dancers grinding with other dancers each watching each other, i mean face it in the worst case scenerio you had what 32 professions not more then 6million xp per master profession, so 6milX32 at the worst still isnt 7.25mil X 30 for the conversion rate at the village right now. anyhow im getting off work now so i gotta leave peace everyone and think on your pre-cu grind and just how hard it was, oh and btw i think this village is easy and the jedi grind will be easy too, as long as your smart about it, and if the village is easy and the pre-cu grind wasnt as hard then idk what the hell your b1^ching about.

I don't get it.

I think p89... was referring to how rediculously easy it is to unlock now days. The should have left it a complete secret to control population. If it gets any worse, they're gonna have to bring back perma death.

My main point is, that people arnt playing the game anymore, they are just grinding from day 1, until they get a jedi. It was never this bad Pre CU.

I was mbh and if a jedi knows thier toon they won't get killed, well, not very often, that is my point. Dont be listening to the bh's bragin on here, they just killed a person that doesn't know thier toon. I know of a padawan that took out a mbh because he did like you did and asked his jedi pals and knew the toon. That was my point and that is why bhs come here and brag when they don't know what the heck they are talkin about.

This was the same since launch, not the people changed, but the way to become a jedi. Yes, it's easier, and then what? It's a lot easier to become a BH too, is anyone whining about it?

why do players think just because you didnt unlock before the cu your are not entitled to be a jedi.(is your gameplay do what you like)

Think before you post i unlock way before the CU and i have yet no finished my template and my reason is because i am in no hurry i enjoy playing the game not grinding untill am bored of it.
if players want to go jedi with lvl 58 is their game and their problem what i dont agree with all the changes, why pre CU think oh we are better because we did a longer grind thatz is plain stupid you are no more no less jedi than the jebay jedi.

You want to be better than others start by acting like a mature person and then maybe players will take you seryously.

Hmm, not sure why I was quoted for your response??? I am post CU. All I did was guess at what the other poster meant by 58 glowie,

Okay, I know its rough, cuz im a post cu jedi. We are at a disadvantage regardless of what the bhs say as there is not absolute way to understand it unless you go through it. No way, not how dont even try. Negative xp as a new jedi for the first time is a serious shock to one system, so dont expect bounty hunters to understand. they never have and never will until they become a jedi.

I know that you also get sick of them posting how they killed a full temp because you are a cl 80. Again, most of them dont know jack about our profession other than how to kill jedi. I saw a post today that one thought he killed a full temp because the jedi used aura...right. well, youll ahve to live with that because they TRULY believe they are killing full temps and we all know you can be a cl 80 and be pretty far from full temp. as my jedi is. Unfortunately youll have to roll with their egos on that one.

Lastly, and my most biggest word to you guys is Crystal Pearl drops. Even the infamous maura said it best that pre cu sabers and jedi are the most difficult out of the bunch, because their sabers hit hard. very very hard. the perfect and near perfect sabers basically wreck shop and give bhs an extrememly hard time. now, i knwo some bh will comeon here and say ive killed full temp jedi master blah blah...well, so what. Of course, ive never seen a single bh take on a jedi master and win. Anyway, they may have killed a few, but those are the most dangerous. Know this.

The gloating. Well. for the most part, yea, they are in their glory days. they mostly complain about cloak and fr. theyve got pics of us dead and blah blah. I know. weve all seen it.

Post cu jedi are hutning. yeah we are. And regardless of tag we are all just full temp padawans..FULL TEMP PADAWANS.

Lets think about that. Even the pre cu jedi are full temp padawans with skill and ripping up mbhs. That is scary, heh, and means hope for us. Want to know why?

If the frs does actually give us bonuses, (if u become knight) we become STRONGER than we are now. Even the old school jedi too, making them even moreso with their knowledge and destructive sabers. as a knight...yes, so they say, a KNIGHT, NOT FULL TEMP PADAWAN (for the mbhs that gloat) you are 1.5x stronger. Debateable, so well see, as now there really are no knights or 1.5x stronger jedi at all. So, that whole jedi are weak thing is sort of true..

Lastly we have no perfect crystal drops or pearls or frs. We just dont have it now. but when we do, like i always say, it will be a whole new ballgame. And alot of the bh photos and gloating (btw, most of mauras kills were POST cu jedi), will slow, and many of them have never even gone after a pre cu jedi because most of em have either quit or play their alt.

And because its so hard now, imagine how much less it will be when we DO actually get the drops. Scary thougth eh?

So. Dont be too discouraged, and stop fighting with the older jedi, as theyve got alot of knowledge and things tolearn from, which is why im friends with alot of them. And try to understand their frustration. But thats another story...

BHs will have their fun, this is their day, but their days are numbered.

(yeah, i know some mbhs are going to post negative stuff here, its expected, but the day is STILL comming regardless. Enjoy your kills and screenies while u can)

I'm a Pre-CU Jedi, so for you veteran Jedi forum readers, you know what I'm going to say. As I have read, this thread is to encourage new Jedi. So I'll give it my best shot.

You are a post CU Jedi. It's hard for you, and if you ask me that's a good thing. They completely opened up the Jedi profession to everyone. I was grinding yesterday with a level 44 Jedi. Through various changes and nerfs they have made your life hard, but it's the price you pay for being given the open option of being a Jedi.

I died to a BH yesterday while grinding, a really bad BH. I have no defender, I'm a pure support Jedi for my guild and the Empire, and I play my template well. But when you have 1/4 health in the middle of a lair you're dead meat. It sucked bad losing the XP, mostly because after playing for so long at this point I really have no desire to ever be bothered to grind Jedi XP ever again. I have a respec left so I figured I can wait a month (hopefully) and see what kind of temp I can pick up for the FRS. But yes, it sucked big time losing that XP. However, I grinded the XP back in a half hour with a grind group on Dantooine. So it's not that big of a deal, just don't let it get to you.

Crystal / Pearl drops, sucks bad I'm quite aware. Again, I have no defender at all, my Melee Defense is 45. I had FOUR, yes FOUR, Jedi on me yesterday for a good 10 seconds, two of them MLS. All of them were new Jedi, and I was able to escape. Their damage outpost was hideous because their sabers have terrible pearls. Terrible. I will revisit this issue in a bit.

As far as BHs go, you posting about them and acknowledging them is your first mistake. I have a Bounty Hunter alt, like every other Jedi. BHing is pretty easy, it's a pain when Jedi are sitting in their house or hall of course. I've beaten Master Defenders (AI and all) and Master Lightsabers. It's all about timing for a BH, moreso than the actual fight itself if you actually get into one.

Bounty Hunting is the only thing left to do in this game for a LOT of people, especially people like myself, aside from PvP. You have to realize that Bounty Hunters are in the game to stop you from grinding, to kill you, and to mock you. That's their job, and you have to deal with it. If you go down, get up and grind faster, grind harder. Without BHs this game would be worse than it already is for the most part.

Back to the pearls / crystals. You will not be getting a fix to the tuning system, or the drops. What SOE will do is put it on the [hopefully] uber hard bosses that will be prowling the end of the Mustafar dungeons. Hopefully harder than Necrosis, and a lot more complex than the Necrosis set up. And hopefully the drop rate is 1 in 25. But it will be available, and you can do it multiple times, but you will have to work for them. And I hope this is how it ends up being. Perfect Sabers were not given to every Pre CURB Jedi, we worked for those too, as well as our templates before they gave post CURB Jedi grinding groups or Kashyyyk. The early Publish 9 Jedi, like myself, only had color crystals to use and they had NEGATIVE MOFIDIERS ON THEM. Can you imagine having crystals and pearls that actually made your saber worse? Trying grinding with that, without a group.

We all have our sob stories. I'm sure I have a lot more but I think they're all covered on these forums in one thread or another. I know you're not attacking Post CURB Jedi here, but it's just really tiresome to see people who don't have it as hard as they think complain about petty things. You didn't have to find out how to unlock your Jedi like some people did, and you didn't have to go through a completely randomized system to get yours. The least you can do is deal with the fact that you're not going to be as good as your elders.

You will be screwed in the FRS too, I'm sure. Pre CURB Jedi who did their Knight Trials have their Knight boxes already completed, so chances are pretty high that we won't need to go through the new Trials they put in, which would be a nice reward to those who have accomplished more than the new Jedi. Otherwise we're gonna have a bunch of noob Jedi taking up all the FRS ranks.

well said
