I agree with the idea of no pearls needed to craft sabers except to be able to use the sunriders or banes heart to boost elemental. Base it on the quality of materials and crafting skills to create a saber.

how many of you spent weeks hunting giants and ancients before the rumored release date of the cu? the peeps that have enuff perfect pearls did this. the assclowns that are constantly whining about pearls/crystals either were not around then and have not invested enuff time in this game (i am a prepatch 9 jedi and yes i believe you have not earned jedi) or they chose not to go out and hunt dragons to stock up.


to all those king whiners out there....i hope you enjoy your game when there is no one to play against.






what do you mean?






exactly what it says.........if you were not around before cu and you already have a full templated knight after only 3 months of play, i say you did not learn enuff about the game to be an effective voice. if you are trying to get into an argument about deserving it or not then troll elsewhere. i was under the impression that being a jedi meant you were 20 times stronger than a regular profession (per TH's exact words pre patch 5) not this watered down crap that 90% of the current jedi have dragged us into or helped nerf us into. 1.5 times as powerful as a reg prof is not acceptable. again, if you are trying to suck up to people for appearing to be on the side of the whiners or newer jedi then seek a flame war elsewhere....it is my opinion and you will not get me to argue with you for trolling sake.






no i dont want to argue with anyone bro,thats why i asked what you meant,i agree to a degree with what you say,if you have a full template jedi after only 3 months of play then yes you dont have enough experience to be an effective voice


that being said,i would appreciate it,if you dont want someone to flame,or troll or whatever,then please keep your posts civilised ok?

fair enough you are entitled to your opinion but just as a FYI it really does make you sound like an elitest "don't care about anyone else Jedi" that some BH's are trying to brand Jedi






if being an elitest means getting what was promised us pre patch 3 then i am indeed that. i do not feel like we have gotten near what we were told was coming, not what we "deserve." no one deserves jack! all i am saying is that 1.5 times is unacceptable. and on the note of what i said....how is it possible that some completed jedi that signed up for the game the day of CU with his big ole total experience box that did nothing but grind his player to one goal and has mastered a whopping 1 prof and essentially mastered jedi have any input in overall game mechanics and balance when he has played a whopping total of 2 profs? that is what i mean by he has not earned the right to cry for nerfs when he has no clue what he is crying for balance against. is like a dancer crying for commando nerfs when the 2 will never fight any way. go join WOW and ruin their veterans game. they have invested far less time than the veterans in this game.





Im gald u had loads of time on ur hands to play this game long enough to be pre 9. I didnt. Anyone who grinded the majority of there temp in the CU knows they grinded a different profession. They grinded knowing they were 1.5 times better, there is no use goin on about how better it was in the old countty and how all the nerfs (balancing the profession) effect you. Its unfortunate that the profession u grinded all the months (years) ago no longer exists. Its the way this game has evolved and you would have watched and experienced that process. You say som1 who mastered 1 prof, a few pois and dont the village can be a jedi, yes u r right. The amount of time put into unlocking and grinding a jedi now, reflexs how good, cool, fun, leet the profession is now. Its the way it is in all walks of life, vetrans are around long enough to see the changes, often not like them but there is nothing u can do unfortuntly. to say some jedi dont derserve pearls coz they lack will power or waht ever is silly. Get the spawns and drops fixed to how they were per CU and u will see who has willpower and enthusiasm.

I don't care who suddenly was motivated to find pearls at the last minute before the CU...most of us worked hard regardless of the impending CU to get good pearls so we could craft the best saber possible. The Jedi Grind was partly about skill advancement and partly about saber crafting back then...there were two grinds, in other words. Saying you worked hard to find pearls at the last minute means nothing here.


I have one of the older Jediand I don't care how much 'easier' it got. Things change. It wasn't like the post-cu Jedi asked for the changes or tried to get over on the system, so cut them some slack. They were hosed out of good pearls---no question of that.


The real question is whether we are about to be robbed of all the hard work we put into our sabers.I have no faith whatsoever in thefairness of the devs...they will not care about the second order effects of nerfing the older Jedi again, and will be happy to see us leave since we aren't the major bill-payers around here.


Remember what happened to the buff sets the doctors crafted? There were doctors who had spent months making the best buffs on the server, and others who spent millions buying them. When they got rid of the crafted buffs, the devs converted them to worthless artifacts. There was no compensation or even a kiss after they were@!#$%&.


So...the few of us left who fall into the category of pre-cu Jedi with near-perfect sabers that we spent months to create are about to be ganked. And nobody cares.

apologize for that then. you know as well as i do that 99.9% of posters here are solely geared towards stirring crap up for the sake of stirring it up. is impossible to know if someone is the .1% or the 99.9% crowd.

What rebellious_imp said kind of makes sense, but I fear those +120 -9 pearls will probably get converted to +110 like the cap that's on the current "quality" crystals. That'll give even the best LS about 700~ max damage, this is just speculation but that statement from the devs kind of sounded like that.





Yeah, this is what I think is coming, too, lol. Since Pub 9, Jedi has been slowly dumbed-down, because of the steadily increasing Jedi population.

Dude, they will not piss off the older jedi population. Meaning us in the pre-pub 9 days... Trust me.. they will not do that




I'm a Pre-Pub 9 Jedi - and I've been pissed since Pub 9.

completely different gear....i was always under the impression that sabers were made with one crystal? max of two? one color one damage. if they change it to where this is the case then they have my vote and would prolly help to eliminate the major descrepancy of pre cu jedi and post cu jedi. since there will be no way to fix the most powerful weapon in the galaxy, then who really cares.

I'm sorry but I don't consider grinding out profs as any more deserving than the new system, both Jedi did the work the devs laid down to get it so both Jedi have earned the right to it. Just because you and other pre-Jedi did it sooner does not mean that their opinions are the only ones that matter over post 9, post cu or future Jedi under a new system if it comes out.


Oh and another thing, I have been playing since the euro servers came up so I am a Vet as well so I have invested my own fair share of time, does that make my opinion more important than yours because my forum reg date is older than yours???? No, that would be elitest of me to think that.


Anyone who has Jedi has equal right to chip in and have their say on their prof, their was not a cut off point as to when you are allowed an opinion


Oh and I tried Wow and thought it didn't need anymore ruining, but hey thats my opinion, other people think it is the best mmorpg ever born, so hey what you gonna do

yeah i know exactly what you're saying,dont worry ive done exactly the same thing too,thinking that someone was trying to start a flamefest with me and i went on the defensive


theres so many people post here who just want to start an arguement for the sake of it,thats why the devs dont take us seriously,they probably take one look at these boards and think,why should we help that bunch of ignorant,immature selfsh,whiny little kids?


then its the adults like us that have to put up with the nerfs they bring down on us

Kraken, if you thought the cloak snare nerf reaction was virulent, mess with people's sabers like this and the biggest Jedi outcry in history would occur.


Pearls have been the basis for Jedi sabers since the beginning and this can't be changed now without severe economic loss to Sony. The devs might be stupid enough to do it, like the cloak snare, but Oh Lordy, what a crisis that would create!

to have constructive thoughts would be a major leap forward for most of these newer jedi or newer players. the vast majority simply cry nerf and/or hand me this or that. crying for balance when they have no clue what they are crying for is the definition of ignorance. i have played not grinded out every profession in this game. i unlocked on prof 31 and grinded out bh to say i had done them all, plus pilot when it was out. when someone has played over 16 dif profs i would say they have a clue as to how the other profs work in this game. until then they are simply stating things they have seen or heard and we all know how reliable that type of information can be. they watch a hybrid pvper tank 4 or 5 mediocre jedi players and automatically cry for a nerf of all pikeman because of this one incident they saw. or they cry nerf on one cloaker that managed to escape a gank squad they were invovlve in. most cries for balance in this game come from jealousy of ability or lack of knowledge of how the game is played. period.
