The main problem I can see with a block nerf is how are dark jedi oriented templates supposed to kill ranged players?


Some players have taken the dark path which means, no SP left for force run.


Have you ever tried to take out a ranged player who's kiting you with forcerun? It's horrible. You're stuck relying on your burst run and when that runs out, oh man does it suck. The only way to win is if they make a critical mistake and stop/run in the wrong direction so you can KD/dizzy them and hit 'em while they're flopping.


If saber block weren't so high, this would be hopeless.


The problem is that the devs have to remember that Jedi is a melee profession. You're ranged attacks are only 30m max range and you're going up against people who have 64m max range as well as terrain negotiation (most likely).


We don't want to cookie-cutter the entire Jedi class, but take away a decent block and any Jedi without FR is going to be in some serious trouble.

You know what is more rediculous? 30>16m max range of commando specials. Last time I checked, Commando's were a ranged proffesion.

I suggest your character be stripped of all his items and all his credits and all his skills. To make up for leaking information.





Isnt he helping us by warning us ?




We don't need to be warned... it's a friggin game.








That we play for 3 months +- of Jedi grind,being hunted,loseing exp due to bugs, and when get our temp done BAM its nerfed to high heaven....


Iam grinding to Finished temp in under a month. 3buffs a day....If its nerfed I want my 9 hours back each day.






On the box..."Gameplay may change".


Now seriously, if you wasted that much of your life away its no ones fault but your own. Don't brag about it, its embarrasing.







Thats refering to the Rating....People in guild chat can sometimg make it for adutle "MA rated" people cusing,hurasment will make the game a higher rating.....They rate games on what the NPC/Game does not the players....


Gameplay may change means...You will see difernt levels of stuff from the players....ALL online mp games have this.


GAMEPLAY MY CHANGE because its not being ratedhow theplayers act....



Back tothe grind =p

My info came from a friend who is a alpha tester.






Too bad he did not have the latest information, and therefore was wrong.






Hey, Tanks, have you had any of your threads spilling NDA information deleted yet? Or have you been asked to shut your trap about the CU yet by any of the Moderators? Just askin'.

You aren't speculating, you're trying to incite outrage over rumor with absolutely no evidence. That pretty much ranks as trolling.

You may think your $15 gives you the right to act like an ass to SOE folks, but it doesn't. Your $15 is a tiny, miniscule drop in the bucket. So take your money and go home if you don't like it.

I recommend you read my post again. I do speculate over a major change to Jedi defences, I make no judgement about it. I don't call anyone an ass. If you don't like the thread, why not leave it?

The only speculation you do is that it's a conspiracy by 'the man' to keep it all quiet and cover up 'the nerf'.

Well, any thread discussing a heavily trailed change to Jedi disappears and I get a heavy warning from some SOE guy who came into this forum specifically to do it. I'd say, you were right.

Yeah, next time make sure to note the "discussion" for me. Everythread I've seen is you and tomack saying "It must be true!" and everyone else either telling you to drop it, or outright calling you morons for buying into rumor.

Wouldn't you feel foolish if we were right? But let us not derail the discussion. The thread might be locked.
