No, they are singlehandedly destroying Powers while fixing some problems w/ the "shotgun effect".
It's like saying they fixed the LS Speed problems by removing lightsabers all together. "See guys... the speed issues are fixed and balanced within the vision of the CU"


the more things that are broken and worthless the more reasons for a jedi revamp....I say they should keep it coming....regardless...cloak was cheesy and you know it...it was never intended to be an escape mechanism....it's for offense.







What makes you say that?

and there was no one left to speak out for the jedi.


This fits in here, if other jedi want nerfs to the jedi professions they dont have then SOE will carry on with the nerfs untill eventually they will axe or destroy all the jedi professions

I'm trying to figure out why this is an issue. Why is it considered an exploit? Is it because Jedi can do this an no other class can?


So, we can do corvette with cloak. And what did it take to do this? Months or years of leveling. Is this bad? No. So, we can hit and cloak, is that bad as well? No.


Jedi have abilities the others don't. Sorry guys, that's the way it is. If you want to do this then YOU spend monts grinding Jedi.


You all forget (and mostly SOE) that Jedi use the Force to accomplish things. If they have an advantage it's because they put the time and effort into it.


There is no reason to change cloak, in fact, to enhance cloak is more reasonable. I should be able to heal myself under cloak. If they make our cloak like a riflemans... I'm out.


Why is every advantage a Jedi gets and exploit or something that needs to be nerfed. It could be that the SOE dev team are 'liberal'. No class should be more powerful than the next. With that attitude, I'm out of here.

If with the cloak nerfs, that wont change much. They will just use FR 3. And even if they did cloak, what will anyone do to them then?

I'm going to play a BH tude here.


If you don't want to be killed at a starport, then be dam sure you are not 'overt' when you arrive. That's special forces for you post-cu guys. If you are special forces, it's your own fault that you get killed.


cheers ).

Like I said before, that's assuming that they allow FR while cloaked man.

This happens often on my galaxy, there would usually be one or two overt to "bait" any incoming overt and the rest of the baits' group members uncloak and hammer away. I have seen it happen and it saddens me to how an ability I use properly gets used by dabblers that has more defense and typically more offense with MLS than I do as a master force wielder. Of course many of these are pure speculation but whatever Helios says may come true and this will hurt pure force wielders and of course the dabblers will not care about it because they will go find something else to take advantage of as usual.

If I decide to stay then I will logging on my main more often and be better off wearing 75% armorbreak reduced sliced RIS armor and carrying a damage capped with a damage pup powerhammer on my main than my Jedi if this goes live, so be it because I am not going to regrind my template once again after a year of grinding from initiate to knight.

cloak should be removed from the game







Well, ONLY if the new FRS takes deaths into account as well as kills. The way it works, a jedi can cloak pretty much ANY time, and though it DOESN'T make a jedi deal damage faster and such, it DOES allow the jedi to escape pretty much ANY death.


Which "record" is better: 101/101 or 1/0 ? A non-cloaking jedi will have to stand there and take the death while a cloaker can run and live to fight another day. In the previous statements about the upcoming FRS, 1/0 is a "better" record since deaths count against the ranking as much as kills do. If the system counts kills but not deaths then the 101/101 would be better. Even though 101/101 is .500, I'd consider it a better record than the 1.0 ranking of 1/0 since it shows that the jedi HAS fought and HAS killed. Many jedi will end up getting ganked in this new system merely due to running into a larger group of opposing jedi or even being killed by multiple BHs/special forces TKM/Mpike/medic sorts that can over power a jedi template.


Fix how cloak works in the FRS and I see NO issues with it as it is currently applied-so long as it doesn't allow players to loot the DWB without risk while others cannot fight down there in a large group. I think that THIS is one of the biggest things that is working towards getting cloak a very large nerf-abusing it in loot situations.
