Oh well, I guess I can just turn perma blue and go sit in a corner yelling nerfed to death.




Yeah, because it was really hard for them to fightclub up the ranks wasn't it. Kudos to them for the mammoth effort that went into that!

You are miss informed.

To gain the title of "Knight" all you had to do was finish the trials. You did not fight club to get this title.

Anything like guardian or master was possible (and I stress possible) to gain via fightclubs.

If you see someone with the knight title up, it is becasue they finised the trials. If you don't know what the trials are then think padawan trials but with harder mobs and very hard to locate ones as well. It wasn't terribly challenging, but it could take people a while.

no, you will no longer be special with the uber stuff no one else can have. equality is coming. get behind it, or get run over. i am happier with these changes than anything done in game so far. although seeing ch removed hurts a bit. i was a ch before the very first nerf round back in 03...




I'm not sure about that.


Did anyone notice when Tiggs said Pearls will still be required to upgrade the saber? Well if that is true maybe all the people with gimped sabers will STILL be gimped. So maybe we should wait before we say equality is coming.

actually glarg, try reading the post from tiggs about vetern jedi players....then edit your reply to resemble a factual reply...






Actually Kraken I think you need to re-read Section IV of the FAQ reguarding Veteran Players.


If you dont want to hunt it down, I will gladly quote it for you.


IV. New Veteran Player Loyalty Rewards



We are offering current active characters several loyalty bonus items in recognition of their status in the game community as valued veterans.


• Elder Buff – Increases to combat abilities, this buff can be shared with new players.


• Elder Title – In recognition of your status in the game as a valued veteran player.


• Profession Re-Allocation Option – All characters active prior to the introduction of the new game enhancements will receive a total of 9 re-allocation options or charges attached to their character to allow the player to test out each of the new professions once before choosing the final path.


• Jedi Bonus Items – Power-enhanced Jedi Robe and Lightsaber color crystal and the opportunity to play as transcended blue glowing Jedi character.


• 10 Additional Combat Levels – New combat levels to explore from level 80 – 90.



That doesn't mean strictly Jedi. The only part of that posting that states Jedi in specific terms, is the Jedi Bonus Items part where it mentions power enhanced Jedi Robe, lightsaber color Crystal, and the opportunity to play as the blue glowie Jedi.


The veteran rewards are being given to those who have and have maintained active accounts up until the changes happen. So anyone purchasing the game after the changes hit, will not be able to obtain the non jedi specific rewards.

amin, i see what u are saying but let me clarify cause i may have posted this in general and really meant to specificly deal with the cl 80 to 90 levels. the cl levels should be based on what post you unlocked. I hope that clears up what i was getting at.

Sheesh. Nerfed to hell and back, the laughingstock profession of the game and fallen farther than Gabriel, relegated to starter prof, and STILL people are trying to be "1337" based on their unlock date. Get over it already.

I don't get why you'd fight for this...can't any CL80 work their way to 90? How would this make you special (for anything but the 1st week or so)?

I did think. This kind of post is still more "give us veteran Jedi more 1337ness" nonsense that has gone on in these forums for months. You want CL90 handed to you on a silver platter, in the same way veterans consistently accused post-9/post-CU Jedi of wanting things handed to them for free.


You want CL90 fast? Get grinding, me bucko, bank 4mil before this hits and you should have an excellent headstart. I should think anyone who has attained Jedi would be a master grinder. On November 16th everyone in the whole game will be in the MO grinding up CL80-90, you might as well too.


/edit: Look at it this way. You'll need the grind to learn the new skills and combat system, and we might as well all learn together, in a group, as friends, beating up on the dark forces of Piket..

As an additional bonus, all current active characters will be able to begin advancing through new levels as we are adding 10 levels to the combat advancement system, level 80 – 90.


I quoted that from the FAQ as well, now,reguarding your previous post....


I dont feel that it would be benefitial to, not only SOE, but to the players themselves if they became canceled out based on the publish that they obtained their account in. I myself have an account that is about 120 days old, and can honestly say that with having spent most, if not all of my time in game grinding out three seperate combat professions (one was reground twice), and mastering one pilot profession, and in the same time getting force sensitive and obtaining four tree unlocks and one filled tree from the village in that time....that putting people who might have an account the same age, or close to, mine yet havn't accomplished that much, or even more than that, would be unfair.


Some people do have lives and might not have that much accomplished in that time. Granted people who began the long drawn out pre-CU grinding and Perma Death issues and what not, those characters deserve recognition, I dont' think that characters like mine who are 'young' and yet has so much accomplished deserve to be pushed back either.
