No, there haven't. This is pure unadulterated garbage. This will turn into snare wars. The changes mean that ANY melee class will be kited with NO chance to get a single hit in OR a chance to disengage. Rancor puke will only go so far since ranged weapons also have their snares (this takes up valuable space that could be used to other mandatory drink buffs, putting melee toons at yet more of a disadvantage).


Ranged characters already get an 80m head start and can pound for the entire time. Without at least a chance to burst run/force run to catch up/make up for terrain negotiation mods there will be little chance to catch up. With Rancor puke, the melee toon is lacking in another buff that will turn the battle in favor of the ranged. Without it, it's a 2 minute CM snare with an essentially 65% speed debuff that will end the battle.


What do ranged characters give up in comparison vs. melee? They have to get their armor Armor Break sliced once for a permanent "buff".


Are the Devs incompetant, biased or both?








rancor whiz only deals with elecrolyte drain unless they changed it...





Yep, that's what I meant. Isn't electrolyte drain the 2 min CM snare? (combined 40% speed reduction and movement reduction/snare)...That would leave only a carbineer/BH snare, so they can still use a snare and keep a melee character moving at a ludicrous crawl for the entire 75m while kiting. With the extra damage delt, this can mean that the battle is all but over before the melee toon can make up the distance.

an adventure game called Indigo Prophecy


btw, a bit off-topic...but that game is awesome. My only recomendation is to try EVERYTHING. and make sure you pass all the rythym challenges. The game makes a lot more sense if you do everything.



Yeah, I heard so much good about it that I just have to play it... A friend said something like "Play it, or I will slay you". And he often have good recomendations so I guess I have to 8)




--- Cancelled 24th November 2006
Reason: The lack of multiplayer pve content and Star Wars feel.
For 3 years I have tried to find excuses to stay in game but only the expansions offered me what I subscribed for in the first place: A multiplayer Star Wars pve experience with friends around the globe. I found friends but with almost no addition of pve content they dropped out one by one. Now it's my turn.

To be fair, i doubt for many it is the patch specifically, more a culmination of or.. the straw that broke the camels back.
You can only screw someone over for so long before they call it quits and I suspect its close to that time fora lot of the players, due to lies and nerfs mainly.

And you know that none of the people unhappy about it haven't tried it out? Oh, wait, you said don't get upset because it's not live yet. You did read when that's being patched in, right? Unless there's some sneaky-pete stuff going-on, it's the same old code that's been on test.


I don't know how long you've been around, but for many people taking it on faith is just not an option anymore.


Patch and hope isn't the answer.
