Hmm, lets see, I have a crappy saber comparatively which means I cannot outdamage a MBH/medic temp as a MLS. I'm not a defender, oh yeah, I took the different trees to be different and more light-jedi like "I am not the Jedi you are looking for." Oh and I got on the terms because I refuse to hang out only killing non-humanoid NPC's.

If cloak is really your only defense and you don't have good offense, how did you get on the terminals in the first place?

See, Im all for cloak at its level right now for paddy's... that is fine. Leave it like it is for them..


As a Knight however I know how the perma overt system works.. I forsee alot and I mean ALOT of issues with it under the FRS.. In fact I see things getting abused at levels NONE of you know due to more then 75% of you have not ever been in the FRS and understand the gameplay and style.


So while cloak is fun and cool.. in the Paddy system, in the FRS I can see a crap load of issues.


(Unless there is a Knight level force "Sence" cloaked Jedi near this is just a problem waiting to happen.


For those that are in the FRS they too know how it would make cloak... pretty much a given of could make the FRS worse then we could ever think of.


So if they leave it alone at Paddy level fine.. change it at Knight level.. sucks, but this could get bad fast.

And yet! And yet! Let's look at your sig, shall we? "Jedi Record 44w-2l-6t" So, just like sooooo many other Jedi, you complain and complain and complain and write about how you can't outdamage anyone or anything, and you die sooo many times. Yet you have a win/loss record of 44:2. Typical.

Is this a bug or an intended feature?





Intended; as part of the CU, every move, state is supposed to have a counter of some sort.


Riiiiight...except cloak. Even with the nerf. It'sa cheap move folks, and it's being overused. Maybe it isn't a total "I win" button, but it is definitely an "I ain't gonna lose" button. Thanks to lag (or whatever) jedi can cloak during a fight, 1m away from their enemies...and that's the end of the fight. Why waste skill points mastering defender for AI when you can choose toend any battle at any time?


Sure, there are shady ways to deal with cloaked jedi, but if "every move/state is supposed to have a counter of some sort", so should cloak. And it doesn't even look like this nerf includes adding a counter move.

What are they going to do to it?




...Posting rants on these forums is like a rocking chair; it gives you something to do, but it doesn't get ya anywhere... write that down.

Cloak should be left alone and not hit with the nerf forest everytime someone needs a reason to nerf something. What ever happened to the old saying that Jedi are 1.5 times stronger. I think we are 2 times weaker than a durni. If anything we need to be improved with a serious shot of /whoopaz$ to make a difference in the game.

agreed but the devs seem to be listening to the FOM whines that someone else has a cool toy and that it must be taken away.
