Fern, my point is not that I'm inherently entitled to be more powerful than other players. I never really cared about that. I just think recognition for past achievements (like badges) is a good thing. If I had my way, all current Jedi would get the same rewards at NGE, I'd just like to see titles based on when you unlocked.


Why does this even matter to me you ask? When I unlocked Jedi pre 9 it was very rare and very special to me. Now it has become so common there's almost no point to me in being one any more. I have nothing left to hold on to of the times when it was rare. Simply a title in recognition would suffice for me.


Players who argue none should be inherently more powerful or have more abilities than another are probably right. But I still believe it is good to recognize players on certain accomplishments, and anyone who argues against special recognition argues against the point of putting effort into the game.

nice 180 there

The blue glowie, elder title, and elder buff things aren't enough for you?

Personally, I think the glowie & elder title are perfect ways to recognize past achievements without unbalancing the game going forward. I'm actually surprised/confused about the elder buffs (better robe/saber/etc). It doesn't really make sense, given the whole premise of the new system.





I think they're great as well, which is why I just said all Jedi should get them. At the same time I'd like to see recognition of time of unlock by titles. This does not affect game mechanics and would be a nice way to throw older Jedi a bone as well. You can't tell me the post CU Jedi grind even compares to pre pub 9.

Sure I wish that I would get somethingmorefor the 450 million XP that I invested in my character but thathas nothing to do with having otherpeople become Jedi as well. I really hope that this change does unite our profession. See you all on the other side!





I have more than this easily invested in my character, just not invested in jedi.I get nothing for it. I am a beta 2 vet

I'm not sure what your point is? I have more than 450 million XP in my character as well. My Jedi temp is 450 million XP but before that God only knows how much. Again, what's your point?





The point is,I have earned as much xp in total as any other player in this game. Just because you spent yours the way you did entitles you to more? But also the extra rewards for jedi are only good if you go jedi under the new system, for those that may not want to go that route, they get less as well. Basicaly Veterans of this game aren't rewarded, Jedi are.

You put in as much or more work than some Jedi who will get rewarded where you won't. But, you never had to put up with being bountied.

For what its worth, tho, I do agree with you that you're getting the shaft.
