Jedi Archive

Hello TH/Tiggs/Correspondant/Developer...

Basically, just a simple question which I am hoping you might be able to answer or at least confirm to me that this question is/has been passed onto the relevant department

I have been looking at your "Treasures of Mustafar" page, and must say that alot of the weapons that you have allowed us to have a look at (so far) are great. Really nice artwork, and the stats on those babies rock.

However, my concern is the following:

DP-23 Rifle

Skill Mods
General Ranged Accuracy: 15

Combat Level Required: 55
Skill Required: Master Bounty Hunter

Damage
Base Type: Energy
Attack Speed: 2.68
Your modified Speed: 2.68
Damage: 624-1248
Accuracy Bonus: 20
Wound: 2.9%
Estimated Base DPS: 349.25 / sec
Your modified DPS: 349.25 / sec

Other Stats:
Range: 0-64m
Special Attack Cost: 83

Given the current situation with Pearl and Crystal drops, the frequency they drop and the frequency a good "tune" will occur both really in the negative - How are newer Jedi characters (and older if they do not possess an already sound Lightsaber) meant to compete with a Bounty Hunter using such a weapon?

I am sure of course there will be numerous other weapons of this caliber, as there are already weapons similiar to this. But given that this weapon is destined to be a popular choice amongst the Bounty Hunter profession, what exactly are the plans in the foreseeable future for both Lower Level Jedi and Jedi without "Good" Sabers to defend themselves against such damage output?

I am of course aware that Low Level Jedi should not put themselves in a position that causes a confrontation with Bounty Hunters, but this sort of limits the ability for a percentage of the player base to enjoy the expansion, and I am sure you can appreciate sometimes being in such a position in the first place is sometimes unavoidable.

I would very much appreciate some word on if there are any plans in the near future to at least allow a Jedi player who lack a weapon that is capable of effectively defending themselves (myself included)to improve their weapon(s) - in this case, of course, the Lightsaber.

Thanks for your time.

Like Garva said. TH and Tiggs are both really busy and don't have time to respond to any of the gamebreaking issues that were introduced after 3 days of people telling them the 'fixes' were gamebreaking.

Of course, they still have time to repond to all their fanbios and toow friday features and base building guides and Myydril Caverns problems and player event calanders and Tuesday Tips archives and er...............

Please keep this bumped as this really shows or exposesthe, well, what i like to call,

"The Bixie Bopper Effect" on SWG.

keep this up top.

this post is simple but really tells the story.
