Well I spent 50 mil on one premium pearl and one premium crystal. Stats from tuning are:

Pearl - 103 damage, -0.26 speed, -9 FC

Crystal - 77 damage, -0.21 speed, -7 FC

Brought up my modified dpsfrom 471 to537 (doesn't matter since modified speed isn't working), max damagefrom 592 to630, and FC from 26 to 18.

As if spending so muchjust to upgrade my saber slightlywasn't bad, I get aMCM / BHcome for me soon after. To make a long story short, I lost. I noticed no diference in the amount of force my abilities use even though my FC dropped and between dealing with perma snare, MCM healing without running out of mind, and droid exploit I ran out of force. But I did notice that my root, snare, and stasis missed about 70% of the time.

So how much more money am I supposed to spend to finally get a saber that can deal enough damage to a MCM tokill them? The bigger question is when are you devs going to finnaly bring backpremium and flawless pearls?

This is rediculas that we have to spend so much to get a saber that canmatch up to preCU jedi and BH/MCM. Can you imagine the kind of weapon a BH can get with just a fraction of the money we spend on getting pearls to upgrade or sabers to the mediocre level.

I'm sorry I'm just having a bad day and I'm tired of getting nerfed to nothing and not seeing any fixes to problems we have.

-Dude if they cared we'd be playing Pre-CU.

I'll wait for the kids to get on this thread and start flaming it. You know it will happan......

"Cry more n00b"

"niiiiib Jedi"

"Respec Jedi have it easy"

"Back in the Pre-9 days we had to earn our Jedi and skills"

What's sad is back then no one in their right might had to spend even remotely as much as the poor Jedi of today's SWG.

I have been playing this game since launch due to issues IRL I was away from game for almost a year andwasn't able to unlock jedi untill the day right before CU went live. If it wasn't for that time I was away from game, I would have unlocked pre patch 9. I wish I could have played a Jedi before CU. Seems like it was more fun back then. Now its just been frustating

As comparison, I cannot imagine jedi life without the stats of my saber, 687 damage max, fc10. Made with only flawless 50 50 -9 (-10) Pearls, this was a lovely glowstick pre-cu, one of the best.

Now it seems it converted crappy. And that means its still nearly twice as nasty as most cu sabers.

I really, really, really feel for cu jedi. I cannot imagine beating a MCM BH with a saber like yours..unless it was a completely newbie respec bh.

-Agreed. I feel for the Post-CU Jedi, they don't stand a chance. However, We took longer to grind and easily got our sabers while they grind quickly and take longer to get their sabers.

not bad tunes! both would have gone straight into my saber anyway

I noticed no diference in the amount of force my abilities use even though my FC dropped and between dealing with perma snare try getting hold of some rancor aid if you haven'tdone so alreadyworks wonders agains electro drain, MCM healing without running out of mind this tends to happen when they over stack foods and are using booster blue. Best to run away use only defence abilities to force preserve and let them chase you for a while till there buffs start to run out then start dealing out the damage, and droid exploit try killing the droid while your running away as soon as its incapped change direction so that the BH has to choose between you and the droid doesn't always work but worth trying I ran out of force. But I did notice that my root, snare, and stasis missed about 70% of the time.

So how much more money am I supposed to spend to finally get a saber that can deal enough damage to a MCM tokill them? The bigger question is when are you devs going to finnaly bring backpremium and flawless pearls probabably around the time they bring back the frs ?

Can you imagine the kind of weapon a BH can get with just a fraction of the money we spend on getting pearls to upgrade or sabers to the mediocre level there probabably aren't any guns at that price.

Its possible the FRS is comming with a complete revamp of jedi, and the way sabers work. Would explain why they are not intrested in adding pearls, perhaps theywill remove quality all together.

I am not sure if bringing back premium pearls will actually unbalance anything really. I recently tanked a jedi with a 730 damage saber with 12fc on my bh/cm. she had mls 4440def 3002enh 4000 healer, and I won using exo protiens and deuterium pyro. I've lost to jedi who have used good tactics to ware me down (not giving any hints here) and lost to them even tho they have had post cu sabers. But I admit these skillfull jedi are very rare to come across. So as I see it they should bring prems back asap and if you havent heard they are now working on a favourable way to bring back premiums right now. Oh i recently fought a jedi mls with a pre cu nasty uber saber and instead of the usual 500's damage i was receiving 650+ damage and quite frankly pooped my panties lol. (ofc i died and cried like a baby). My jedi has 665 damage saber fc 20 now and has a very hard time killing a good bh/cm although i kill most bh/cm there are some that are incredibly skilled and have the right equipment to boot. which makes for a very hard fight so I don't see any imbalance bringing them back at all. My only problem is jedi vs jedi seems to be very OTT damage wise and w/o synth or exo-protiens it's not worth fighting...perhaps some ls defences in defender would be a good idea

Just so you "Premium fans" know what the things are all about...

I had to tune 49 of them (Yes all premium)to obtain my perfect saber (Some crystals mostly pearls. My saber consists of all perals), and i'd say thats a pretty small number in comparison to some i've heard.
