My Rating: 5/10
1.) We are little too weak compared to the BHs who have the suprise attack.
2.) The force drain lately have been insane. I run out of Force after a 10 minute fight with a BH... No way you can call this balanced
3.) No Pearl Drops of Premium/Flawless quality. So theres no way we can get pearls that will give us weapons of equal quality
4.) BHs have Armour slice, Weapons Slice, Krayt Enahnched weapons, Surpise attack. And No slow regen cost on any action they got.
Jedi have Force, action and mindcost added to weapon and even health cost added to some jedi specials. While BHs only have action on weapon.
5.) BHs also have the chance of getting both a Doc buff and soon a ranger buff, while the jedi have to get a buff every 40 minutes just to be on equal line... Unfair!
We are not stronger then other professions. Thats ok, if we are not forced into PvP, as with BHs. And if we are supposed to be 1.5 times stronger only as a Knight, SOE cant balance us before we have the posibillity of getting knighthood.
Much work remains really on the Jedi. The only reason it gets as high as 5 is because i love being a dark jedi. I always loved Star Wars. But I have to say that the Jedi in SWG is a joke. Remove Forced PvP if you want us this balanced! Thats the only solution.
The Game do have potential tho

It's a steaming pile of .........nerfage. I played about 5 months before CU, all grinding mind you, and it was a lot more fun (save the loneliness) than currently. The ability to 'know' that you could cut through literally anything was comforting (I know ls resist psg's, bah). The action was a ton smoother, prettier, and more graceful. The sheer joy upon reaching ls 0040 and seeing what I likened to "Bruce Lee raging on roids" was fantastic and I fear lost on the newer padawan. The ability to pop armor(mid-template) on when a BH decided he needed to be sent to the cloner was outstanding. That one little ability to put armor on in combat would allow soo many of our paddies to survive...... Anyhow, Most of the skill trees have gaping wholes, broken mods, or skills that neither work or are pre-cu artifacts. The negative attention received from the powers that be are also very unwelcome and not helpful at all. Meanwhile, we have not had a positive fix other then some 'minor' tweaking of action and force costs for sabers, although in the same stroke they added mind cost to out weapons. The profession is in a shambles. Yet 90% of the player base is actively moving towards a Jedi in one shape form or another, that's a scary number for SOE to have to deal with, 90%. I do not mind if 100% of all players are Jedi, but if the profession is in the state it is in now once they get there the game will just cease.

I want too give it a high score, i really do, but i just cant. i dont know what else to do.
5/10
Reasoning. Nerfed Pearls / FRS non existant
These are game breaking issues that leave the full templated jedi out in the cold.
4/10
1. No FRS system
2. No content, nothing really to do other than PvP which has no purpose other than talking smack at this point
3. Broken disciplines like healer and powers.
4. limiting bugs like the speed bug
I find myself not logging in anymore on my Jedi unless its to help someone with something. There's just not much to do. There is no FRS there is no point to the GCW (it's more about PvE than PvP anymore).
3/10
Just to many reasons to want to list them all.
However if they fix pearls drops, saber modified speed, post cu saber crafting improved to be onpar with pre cu sabers, give us back the frs in a functioning state that doesn't need fightclubbing, do away with the triple threat special action cost and poor force regen, kill the heal timer or cut it in half and allow us to wear our robes over our saber clothes then i would give it 10/10
