I get tired of all the people that say


"you knew you would be hunted when you unlocked."


This is a very sick perversion of the truth. Yes I knew that I would be hunted, but I also knew that I could hold my own against a BH. There are many things that need to be addressed with this new publish, but it looks like it is not going to happen. If SOE's main stand point is "Stay off the boards" then they need to sit down and explain to me why I should buy an expansion where all of the content will put me on the boards?


I don't what the BH/Jedi system to go away, but as long as the dev's refuese to address these gamebreaking issues there is no other way.


and to those who say you just need to adapt and overcome, I have said that with every previous publish, but please tell me how I can better my chances against 1-2 shot incap? It seems my playing skills are a little rusty.

13 months to unlock Jedi $194.87
6 months to become "Full temp" $87.96

Having SOE take it all away in a single patch...Priceless

Only in your head.

If you want to pvp, use your alt.








If you don't want PvP, use your alt. That's one of the reasons why every Jedi has an alt.



No decay + uber loot = /spit on crafters

Fix the economy and give crafters their $$$ worth... give us real revamp.

I hate to say it but MisNil has it pretty much summed up, like WoW (in exception of their PVE and PVP dedicated-based servers) SWG is a mix of PVE and PVP with PVP being a choice. Every reason for a Jedi to be soley PVP based is gone, like many other parts of the game the devs seems to change their mind on what they want this game to be like and Jedi seems to be moving further and further towards PVE and it won't surprise me if the FRS is completely quest based (though I like the idea of an occasional quest to killing overts or blowing a S.F. base). It's clear and obvious the GCW forum and community wants Jedi to be seperated into their own PVP class if that'll be possible.

The bounty hunter class is practically dominating this game, regardless of what template they have, they're the most powerful class in PVE, loot, money making, and PVP. BH is basically the best class also to grind out force sensitive XP to unlock for Jedi, 1.2 mil per weapon and 350K combat xp (and if you are swordsman, that's another 1.2 mil melee weap or if smuggler 1.5 mil pistol XP).

I like both PVP and PVE but PVP blows in the CU, I rarely PVP anymore because of the way this system is, and I still like to play Jedi in PVE and doing quests on Kashyyyk, raid bases and space. My template is identical to MisNil's and my LS damage sucks but I'll be there with a group to be a support member if I want to PVP.

"I just got hit for 2.9k dmg, with improved aura on. WT F!!!"

This is true and scary, I'm a SL and this is the last thing I want people doing with this class. SL is what's allowing BH's and faction PVPers to do to others and it's out of the question. I watched a couple last night test SL skills and the guy was using a 900 damage Intimidator pistol and was doing 2800+ before armor every shot, and a MDef will be taking about roughly 1200-1300 dmg per hit after armor and aura- let alone a shot such as sniper/conceal shot or critical.

I hate everything you stand for, This game is a PVP game!






actually, no, it's not. This game has quite possibly the worst pvp system ever created in an mmorpg. If you can give me an example of a worse one than this i'm listening.

I just watched a fight between BH/CM and a Master Defender....the run over Lok for about 1500 meters...with the Jedi being almost perma-snared and so almost no chance to get close except when rooting. At the end the BH dropped the mission cause it's senseless... This snare thing has to be brought back into balance.

And do what? Sit down and look into the sun? PvE with NPCs means visibility, PvP means visibility. And a Bounty Hunters forces you to PvP where and when he wants.

The only reason my account is active atm is because I'm bored with every other game out there. maybe CS:S or something will draw me out of this nightmare again. For crying out loud Duke Nuke'em had more balanced pvp than this and that game was made 12 years ago.
