Thread: For all the people who are wanting pearl drops again...be careful...
Actually the original poster is dead on
As a CH, we stormed the soe castle after the cu because pet specials were removed/broken, after months of demanding/waiting for an answer and wondering what the heck was going on ch finally got them back, In the form of a huge grind that when the math is done and you want to have acess to all the specials it's comparable to the village grind.
Even the growth of a pet is contingent apon grinding it in combat. Content = Grind to these people. I would not doubt if the odds are even worse than what this person is suggesting to keep you chasing pearls for an eternity.
*If they do change the pearl rates and system maybe a nice reset of all the old tuned ones would be nice and give us a second shot lol.

Who cares what char it is that goes through the village? Honestly how does that really change the way it was intended, other than keeping the continuity of the one character? So what. Tell me how that 'forces' you to play your Jedi all the time. That reasoning is pretty poor and nothing more than an attempt to make the way everyone plays their Jedi as their main as acceptable. Funny, I unlocked from the village, I play my 'alt' as my main. I follow the rules, doesn't seem to have affected me. Your Jedi is f****ed up because MOST people play their Jedi as their main and MOST of them can't control themselves. The inability to accept the rules, be wise and not abuse the power, keep yourselves hidden (i.e; not wear/equip your robes/sabers in plain view), etc...well guess what? We now have ordinary Jedi because the majority of 'us' can't handle the responsibilty of the power the way it was.
I care because that is the character Ive befriended alot of folk with during my time befor I became a jedi
And these, rules... you speak of, are but your opinion. Looking at the sheer numbers, the math behind defense, offense, one can clearly and easily see that a jedi is not half as good as most people (often non-jedi) feel it to be. Im basing this all on experience, proven math and tests. You are just bitter taht you see jedi running around in their pyjamas, and cry nerf because of it.... childish...
In context with the original post, Im mearly warning jedi asking for this, that its high likely this will have more nerfs coming our way.
My opinion, not quite. They were set in place by the devs. How am I bitter? Only thing I'm bitter about is the constant 'me, me, me' attitude and whining of this community. Its a joke. And again, sorry but a simple email or /tells to those you've befriended would be really simple and wouldn't take too long for them to get used to you with a different name. All that is, is a really weak excuse. Again Jedi is weak because the majority cannot handle the power and therefore abused it, therefore weak Jedi.

Please show me a post where the devs state that wearing a robe in public is not intended, a form of harrasment etc...And sure, I could just email everyone. This would also inform everyone that I am a jedi... it kills alot of things that some of us like to RP over. I feel that all the alt thing is for, is so the jedi can, if he so choices, hide out his visability.
What on earth do you mean with "handle the power, abused it", what kind of responsabilities do you think come with playing this class? I dont see them any other way then playing a normal character, everyone should just show respect etc.
gota love thism post it is a great example of what the forum has become it started so simple yet became an argument completly off the OP's subject.
Who's the bigger fool the fool or the fool who follows him

WHO in their right mind would choose TURD as their name? HUH? That really says a lot..LOL
SOE has nerfed JEDI for who knows why ...not because the majority cant handle the power and abused it.

and you are right, it took one person and i wont mention turds name, to take attention away from what the original post was about. In short, yeah they might give us drops back, but what good is a worthless time frame on drops....only one conclusion...it will take months of krayt killing to get a perfect saber and that means months of paying 15 bucks a month...

You might get what you asked for...but its not what we intended. Dont get me wrong..we need the quality pearls back in the game but, soe is going to use our words against us. Putting pearls back in the game is one of the top issues we have so in true underhanded soe fashion when we do get them back they are going to be so rare, your entire game will be finding them. Someone had used their forumla and came up with close to a 1000 kryat kills before you will have the remotest chance of getting a better than good quality pearl. Multiply that by how many in your hunting party use pearls...bam....that puts it up to 3000 to 5000 krayt kills just to get one for each party member and then multiply that by 4 to fill a saber. We need to be more specific about calling for pearls to return to the game. It does no one any good if the drops are not realisitic. Me and two guild mates hunted 24 krayts the other day and the results were laughable. Out of 24 kills, 3 sets of tissues, 3 sets of scales, no pearls at all. Now, with the devs folding on the cm/doc costs for healing this is even a bigger issue. So please, when we are asking for pearls back, be specific about drops. Even when my daughter wants ice cream, she tells me a flavor. She doesnt settle for what i pick out for her.
lol..nice example dude
you're right though,SOE will use our words against us,they just really need to stop messing with jedi and come up with the goods,i mean even if every jedi had perfect pearls in their saber it doesnt unbalance thingsin my opinion with all the insane resist on armour now,hell 4 perfect pearls and a 20% damage increase wouldnt unbalance things given the fact that our damage is so underpar with other proffesions
Kraken, do you ever start threads that aren't one big, negative whine?
Seriously, please get out more or maybe start posting positive things instead of crying all the time about what a hard life you have playing as a jedi and how SOE hate us all...

People Grow up when i read these replyes they look rather selfcenteret form some individuals.
Im no jedi jet but 2 facts make this post very good.
Look at what they do with drops now.
Jedi need clear crystals for saber. If your lucky 1:25 is clear and 1:20 then will get descent tune so what he says is right ask for what we want more descent pearls to drop.
If they do it 1:50 or 60 drops a pearl and every 2o of them tunes well, you whont have a chance of getting one for less than 25 mill credits do to those rotten kids wanting to be the richest merchants on servers. They will have grps slaughtering krayts 24-7 for the next year.
