Elder status should be given to those that


1 Longterm Members


2 Went through the ridiculous grind to become a Jedi


Reason Being


I myself am a jedi butthink elder status should be applied to long term members as well.


Alot of players didn't want to follow the nonsense path that others were doing to become a jedi but instead enjoyed playing the game.


My brother being one of them. I feel sorry for him and others that havebeen playing longer then me andI will get more.


It is wrong.

Aye, maybe they should get 5 extra cl's since they didnt choose our grind.

But I dont think Blue Glowie is suitable for non-jedi, but they should get some sort of compensation.

It's not a reward for how long you have played... it's a reward for all the time we did put into the grind. They decided not to do the horrific grind, so they don't get the status.

I agree this should extend to none jedi also. I also like the idea of being balanced with none jedi. What I dont like is the fact long term players of any proffession might be screwed. But REALLY lets all wait and see. hehe And yes I feel that jedi who did alot of work more than others should be rewarded for that also.

This last one confuses me.... do all players (even post 15th november newbies) get the extra 10 levels, or is this a thing only for players pre-cu2? seems very unbalancing to me to give old players 10 more levels than anyone joining later on

Thats actually for everyone, its just us veterans for the most part will be able to start at 80 and work upto 90... while others will have to start from scratch to get to 90

What I dont get is how people who have played 4 months are the same as people who have played 2 years. I understand calling 2 year vets veterans, but why call so much newer accounts veterans. I better not get the same label thats all I have to say. I dont mind not being labeled at all, but if i get labeled it should at least reflect something of the time and effort put in. Ya its a game but yeesh it threatens to throw any sort of logic right out the window. And I will put my disclaimer in again, lets wait and see

I grinded 4 FS branches in 6 days - 20hrs a day.
And that wasnt during double or quad xp.
I did my last unlock and realised it would take forever so I grinded like mad and made Initiate 8days later.

There is about 12 days left so if u got 1 or 2 branches left to grind for it

Its all tat guys.


What does an Eldar Title mean?


Means no more than having a Jedi Master Title that you got Fight Clubbing.... its just a pointless show off that only impresses newbies.


The Buff will give everyone a small edge over newer people in pvp/pve, which is fair enough.


I myself am not worried about being nerfed to equal to other profs, its got to be better than the half broken mess half of jedi is now. Perhaps lightning will be worth having. I am slightly worried about the locking of people into one prof. It means every newbie picks jedi, and when they find they might prefer spy or something, they find themselves stuck as a jedi.


The larger picturer is no more switching your alt to a crafter when someone in your guild armoursmith leaves... or one character people who are crafting weapons for a couple of months, then grind combat to go shoot things in ToOW or ROTW. It means being trapped as one prof forever on your server. (unless you have two already)


This is the devs mistake


All the rest is unimportant.

hey, i went jedi and i enjoyed playing the game too. but there was definitely a lot more involved in becoming a jedi, a lot of solo grinding for me, i had to do a lot of things others didnt, and I got the privilage of unlocking jedi and becoming a full temp. a hell of a lot more went in to that than if i just played as a swordsman the whole time the game was out. I most definitely want to be compensated somehow for them totally screwing us.
