He was a Dark Jedi Master Enhancer Fighting a Master Defender in a inclosed spot. Hes template is based on kiting, he could of easily ran around on FR3 spamming drain on the Defender. As a Dark Jedi with Forcearmor2 , that was the only way too kill Mdefenders because you only had 69% forcearmor at Dark council Member and sucky healing mods, as for being a light jedi council member you had 78% forcearmor2 with normal healing mods. So you could stand and tank a defender and just take a beating and channel all day..hell you could do that with 6 jedi pounding on you lol. Dark Jedi Enhancers sucked, end of story.




bumped this so any nubs know what is really happening in the duel before they start shouting OMG FIGHTCLUBB IS NUB ELOHEL ONEON11

I miss damage modifier when you were kneeled, laying down or moving, along with distance. Now a rifleman have the same accuracy 0m as 65m and they said CU would bring more tactic to the game.. pfft.. any idiot can stand on his spot and shoot, but to run and keep his distance to get maximum accuracy and damage is another thing.

Jesus Christ! Pre CU SUCKED BOLLOCKS.

In PVE all you had to do was get buffed and drink some brandy and you could tank / kill anything 1on1 without even breaking a sweat.

In PVP all you had to do is throw mind dots / use dot guns and you'd win. Also Jedi were so freaking unbalanced that it made baby Jesus cry.

Stop whining bout not having your "I Win" buttons anymore and either learn how to play with the new system or just cancel your account.





pre- cu was alot more fun to play for many reasons!


Sounds like someone here is STUCK ON STUPID! LOL

and if you look at the first video look at how little damage they take from dervish you had to get hit like 10 times before needing a heal. that was why the jedi duels were so fun. Now you can incap someone in 2-3 hits not counting armor break.





Yeah the reason was the 75% damage reduction in PvP,that and the combat que gave you time to plan and execute what you really wanted to do. Pre Cu was so cool, It was a unique combat system. A little balancing like:


Nerfed doc buffs from +2500 HAM to 750 or 1000


Nerfed melee and beefed ranged to balance combat


Nerfed Warcry and intimidate or moved them higher up the skill trees


and some other tweeking is all it would have taken to make pre cu superior to CU


Considering they spent 9 months on the CU before pushing it live, there would have been plenty of time to fix the flaws in the pre cu system...

the real reason it happened was it's easyer to make expansions on the new system, they wanted the money and we paid the price.

I was talking about no-skill weapons that made combat a joke (Dot pikes for one), there was zero skill involved in 2 hitting someone with a 2k max dmg PH or 2k dot pike. No doubt you would have whupped me tho, and no doubt you'd have had one of these no-skill weapons to do it too...

LMAO 2k PH come on, I have seen a 2k pike thow it was double sliced, weapons like that made they game interesting. I would hear in team speak ok "john doe" i is the first target he has that 700 tick action fire. now what you go for the guy that has FR3 or force shield up lol

There were more than one of these types looted on Chimaera and I'm sure if you look you'll find plenty of those sorts of weapons appeared on other servers too. Of course you wont go look, then you cant keep crying about how you want your own Pre-CU server all to yourself.
