The only thing really special about jedi though is what you have to go through to obtain it.






Exactly. One of my buds worked overtime making minimum wage at Burger King to save up for an Ebay jedi account auction. Is that how you got yours?




you have a serious e-bay fixation

Ok still nothing... I ask a CR/PR person or the Devs to step in and show us where we are misguided.

Show us how Jedi are special. Point out something special Jedi have or can do since the CU that is not available to all other professions that can be picked up and ground in a couple of days.

I challenge everyone, even the developers...

And if the project and development leaders don't care, I will make sure this issue gets in the hands of people that will care. I promise...

Maybe I do. I do get tired of everyone throwing around the Jebay, PRE-CU, POST-CU arguments, because they're just not productive anymore. And to see someone with a registration date that implies they have been around as long as I have going off about Jebay, just pisses me off to no end and honestly makes me wonder if they aren't deflecting because they ARE Jebay.




To be fair registration date doesnt imply anything since the ebay jedi would inherit that
along with the jedi, since forum accounts are same login as station.

OMG how could you even think we aren't special?


/activate sarcasm switch


1. Jedi is the only Profession in this game that has been revamped three times and each one caused more problems than it solved.


2. Jedi is the only Profession in this game that requires excellent material component drops to make good sabers that do not drop anymore.


3. Jedi is the only Profession in this game whose weapon has gone from cutting through armor to being rebuffed in large part by armor.


4. Jedi is the only Profession in this game who have a special bar in addition to action and mind to use abilities that other Elite professions can do without this bar.


5. Jediis the only Profession whose damage output in the case of both Melee AND Ranged is exceeded by other professions simply by putting the right amount of credits down for a weapon.


6. Jediis the only Profession whose abilities are constantly being reduced as other professions are brought up in power.


7. Jediis the only hunted Profession in game with experience losses upon death in such capacity.


8. Jediis the only Profession in which players get no defenses from their weapon tree.


9. Jedi is the most hated Profession in game and ironically the one most players are either grinding towards or actually have.


10. Jedi is the only Profession to have actually lost a ranking system that the Developers admitted could be grossly exploited and was allowed to be.


I could go on but most Jedi players have probably become disgusted already reading these truisms.

Jedi were special and cool in the movies.


In SWG, Jedi are just "special".

i didnt read all the replys and i am no jedi and im gunna say this... you get all the force run and all that in one proffesion... i know there are differenat trees and what now but you guys dont have to drop everything and get something else... for example i have FoW(even thought its broken still) i would have to drop all my melee skills and go to ranged if i wanted the claok or cover that you were talking about... while if your jedi you can drop mabey your swords or defending to go for it and still have the rest of you skills... also most of this doesnt requir food or clothing, while i would have to buy all this and be sure i bought the right stuff... sure jedi aren't as uber as they probably should be, but this is what SOE has made and if you dont like either go on a "I'm not paying for my 3 accounts till they fix this!" or deal with it...

Just to clear things up im not flamin im agreeing but i see some flaws =D

They never should have changed the original jedi grind. Does anyone here remember when the first jedi unlocked on thier server? The system message that was sent out by Vader.............

Yes some of the nerfs are annoying, but if jedi aren't "special," please explain why pvp is dominated by jedi... on every server... all of the time.

In my opinion Yes, Jedi were "special" in the movies, books, ect.. and they where at one point in this game. Now due to the population of the Jedi, which I dont mind a bit. Hell more Jedi more ForceRank, but theres the Jedi who dont play there Jedi like I think It should be.
Im talking about those who run around in hawtpants and those who wear the ridiculous outfits that you would not see a Jedi wear. Yeah Its there choice and Im fine with that, but hey its my opinion. I enjoy roleplaying and I think people should look up the a Light Jedi if there a citizen of a member of the Rebellion. Looking for support towards the Light Jedi's.
Looking down upon the Dark Jedi if ur a citizen or a member of the Rebellion. A Dark Jedi is ruthless and does not want to help the people. They are out for one thing and that Is too kill what they can.
Jedi were something special when they first came out when the population was 10%. You see alot of new Jedi making fools of themselfs and making the rest of us look bad.

IN MY OPINION!





aww ulove me I only do that when i break into a song!


Who! ill squish em xD
