Well, lol, I cant disagree.




--- 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.

Nil! I've been wondering if some of the vets were in hiding, or already quit.

Nice to see ya.

Ban me!

Only then will you show that your only response to our outcry is to silence us. Prove to us that you and the devs don't want to respond to us. Then you will show your true nature to the dark side of marketing.

Ban me, and take your role along sony, and rule the corporate world as rich boss and wanna-be lacky!

Yeah, the old 90% block was pretty awesome (although it sounded like you were playing ping-pong). I'd like it back too.


We may see bonuses added in the FRS I suppose...

TO pull a smed. Jeez, those dev's pulled a smed on swg big time

I know we wont have our 90% block (which was bugged btw was only suppose to be 85%). But I would be happy with anywhere for us padawans to have 50-65% Ls block. With chances to reach 85% through the Frs.

We can't have high saber block anymore because MDef is already tough enough... Can you imagine MDef/MLS with valor on and 85% ls block?


Maybe they could add some diminishing returns, so that a MLS/MDef isn't untouchable?


Sounds hard to find out a way :/

Nah, I havnt given up yet lol.

I have taken a month break from SWG, not even logging on in weekends.

I want to save my 3 million banked xp for 0400 lightsaber when I decide to retrain, and have no plan on giving it free to a BH right now.

Saber Block is a very important Jedi ability, and a major part of Jedi training. Although instead of having it as a static defense, it should have been an active "stance"-like defense. That means, it should be activated like CoB, and work only temporary while concentrating, and not work when knocked over. But when it works it should be great and even bounce projectiles back.


Valor should be a part of the Lightsaber tree really.

Well if you ask me, it is ridiculous to see jedi (defenders) tanking blaster bolts instead of deflecting/blocking.


But what can we do? With the current Defender profession, high saber block would make em untouchable by ranged guys.. and if a shot would get through block (and miss miss miss), it would hit for ridiculous dmg..

it goesalong the same lines as people "tanking" a jedi while getting pummeled on by a saber. Im a fan of making jedi = to pre patch 9 in progression, that way you wouldnt have half the problems we have now.
