Thread: Tired of MLS /cry
Message Edited by supremejedi52 on 08-31-2005 05:55 PM
Although I do aggree that powers and healer need drastic attention... your post here is mute. 90% of Jedi rely on their saber. Powers wielders can utterly destroy the MBH/MCM combo that plagues Jedi currently. If a jedi that relies on a saber cannot outdamage what a MBH / MCM can heal... he's screwed.

MLS can't get premium pearls for quite some time, its been confirmed. Go talk to a master powers user about damage. Go talk to a master healer(if you can find one) about being broken. Basically, you aren't going to get much pity from the truly broken jedi professions. Crappy pearls still tune better and make better sabers that output more damage than a pure powers user can do.
I am not complaining, I know they will fix powers eventually.... BUT FOR HEAVENS SAKE .... YOU(MLS) DO NOT HAVE THE SHORT END OF THE JEDI STICK!!!!!!

Every one makes good points but the last post was right on the money.
Personally, I wish they would make all jedi stronger ..perhaps like they once were..but they deliberately tried in their great wisdom to equalize BH's and jedi ....they went out of their way to do it....only once again they failed..jedi xp loss is far worse than a BH death/failure!
Maybe someone misread the original post, or maybe I didn't make it correctly? The point is, MLS is well off even with "good" pearl drops. Now yes yes the MCM/MBH thing sucks and needs to be "attended to". But the point of this post was that I am tired of MLS templates whining about not getting pearls back when there are jedi out there that need much more than a simple pearl in a saber. Yes your sabers rely heavily on that little white ball, and no I don't think sabers and powers should have the SAME damage(omg did I say that, omg). I think powers needs a damage increase in general for certain things... most of them are outlined in the "fixing master force wielder" thread or something like that that has amplification ideas as well as new special ideas. Melee has always had more damage output than ranged, its just how it is and how it has been. However if you cannot do damage to the amount a creature can heal before you get your best move off again, or it drains all your force taking down that one creature and it isn't much higher level than you are then there is a problem; this is one of the problems I see with powers.
As for healer, well they need the most love of all; atleast we all agree on that 
.
Well I like the idea of the necklace that takes "power" enhancer type items like pearls or something completely different than pearls. I do not like the assumption that all powers users are dark jedi

Any powers user who uses lightning or choke should be dark by default.
Yoda reflected lightning - Force Shield - he didn't use it himself. Luke technically used choke once, although I think thats an error myself
I'm getting really bored of the whineing about Powers.
Its a SUPPORT profession! Its NOT supposed to be doing anything like LS damage.
Sure in a SW sense that sucks a fat one, but lets get real, this is SWG, NOTHING like SW.

Who cares what you're tired of? Stop posting crap just for the sake of it!
Just like to say I've been master powers with no saber for awhile now and I'm about to switch back to master lightsaber.
Powers = Crowd Control
Saber = Damage Dealing

Well I am getting sick of idiots pulling sh!t out of their azz and calling it fact!
Show mw one post by a dev, or a coro who is directly quoting a dev, that reads "Powers is a Support Profession".
You will not find it, PERIOD. It is a myth perpetrated by egocentric saberists that do not want Powers to have the same damage potential even if the costs for loot and crafting were the same.
I can find 3 posts that were made by a dev, or a coro quoting a dev that say "Powers is a Mid Ranged Damage Dealing Profession", and/or the profession is intended to be a "Viable alternative to Sabers".
All you will find is Bacciaca and a bunch of other players posting what their personal oppinion of the profession is.
