I miss some of it. On the other hand I am glad it is gone sometimes. I don't have to spend 30 minutes just to get buffed to do any pve/pvp in game. I would say the mind pool is not god but I would be wrong since healing is now god. Not to mention stackers that were impossible to beat. I had fun pre-cu it was the game I loved, but a combat upgrade was needed. Do I miss using dervish 2 over and over again and mixing in saber throw three, saber slash three, and saber polearm spin attack 3? Not really to be quite honest. Both have their own advantages the part I miss most about pre-cu is all of the people that played and quit because of the cu.

I don't miss waiting in line in Coronet starport getting buffs.

I don't miss seeing everyone wearing composite armor.

I don't miss seeing TKMs everywhere you go.


I do miss my TKM template (I had to say it!).

I do miss flawless pearls.

I do miss seeing Coronet the central city in the galaxy.

I do miss how Jedi were super powerful.


That's all

I always used a Doc bot. But I would rather go back to those days if i could be super powerful. Not to mention the people come back that have quit.

The one thing i do miss is not having to be a master of 2 elite combat professions to be needed and wanted. I never was a masterof 2elite combat professions before the cu. I had all kinds of different skills in different professionsand i could still play the gameand kill lots of mobs and take part in high end content and dungeons. Forget about doing that now, not that i have to worry because im CL 80 nearly full temp Jedi any way. I really feel bad for the new players coming into this game trying to level. They stand around forever to try to get in a group and nobody wants to let them join. Even if you are a veteran player and trying to grind your alt, unless you have buds or guild mates online that are willing to help, forget about trying to find a group.






Too often players and the devs have a mindset that professions should be balanced with 1 on 1 pvp in mind. This mindset is ruining the game. The benchmark for balance should be determined by the role a profession plays in a group setting. As long as the current mindset continues we will never see uniqueness among the professions, nor will we ever see individuality within a given profession. We will never see the SWG universe expanded as the focus will only ever be balance pass after balance pass after balance pass.

Now it's going to be waiting forever to get Doc buffs, finding food (especially the prevent electrolyte drain stuff) and gathering up your squad leader friends. Whoot! More time spent well. The CURB didn't change the fact that buffs are mandatory, it just changed what type. Now foods/drinks/spices are the mandatory items, but the system is adding SOOO many mandatory items that it will soon be impossible to manage.

I don't miss seeing everyone wearing composite armor.

Everyone is MBH/MCM (or so it seems) so it's only about three types of armor anyway.

I don't miss seeing TKMs everywhere you go.

'Errr, ditto?


I do miss my TKM template (I had to say it!).

I miss nearly ANY previous template!

I do miss flawless pearls.

I hear you there!

I do miss seeing Coronet the central city in the galaxy.

Even Mos Eisley has only about 30 people at peak now.

I do miss how Jedi were super powerful.

Don't make me cry..../sniff

hate to correct ya but that was NOT an upgrade, an upgrade would have FIXED what was broken in the system mainly jedi were god against range and sucked against melee, comp armor became godly with 80% resists to the 2 major damages possible in one suit eanergy and kenetic,doc/entertainer buffs were way slewed out of balance comapred to any players base stats, and the biggest problem that started all this imbalance. when the devs nerfed ch into mediocrity because everyone was playing pokemon with tamed pets that had medium armor and high resists they should have nerfed the TAMED PETS ONLY, not the wild ones ie if pet tamed armor = none/light else weild equals medium/heavy armor. when the devs madespawns a joke to kill leveling became a solo only deal, cash became meaningless doing 38k rancor missions ect ect ect but i digress.


this was NOT an upgrade, it was an entirely new systemripped mainly off eq,if it would have been one we ll wouldnt have combat changes slapped across every freakin publish and hotpatch since we were alledgely 'balanced' by the cu already.........

I do miss lines for buffs (made killing someone in pvp worth something)
I do miss animal attack
I do miss cheap, basic food
I do miss the harder grind for jedi (and let's face it, it wasn't that tough after perma death/skill loss was removed, now it's just a joke)
I do miss the diversity between jedi and normal profs (mind heal, state heal but also lacking armor)
I really miss being a templated jedi with novice brawler

I think pre-cu was a much better system

i miss ntohing of it really... i am just mad that newbies can master a full temp (wihich is actually twice as big as a template u NEEDED back then, back then 1 combat prof was sufficient) in 2 days when it took much longer to master 1 elite prof.


i do miss solo grinding sometimes when i cant find a group, but i dont miss the Buffs, i hated having to wait a half an hour and scrounging around just to pay for my buffs... nowadays im a millionair that can buy most of wat i want... back then i was poor and the docs just sucked money out of my pockets lol
