Ok flamers here is yet another chance for you to flame me.


But I got to ask the reasons for us to work all this time and put out all this effort to be a Jedi?

I don't understand! We are not the powerfull templates that they said we were going to be, the other classes can take us now, and with all the constant nerf's OMG.

1.5x as strong? since when? Most of us have to run around in fear of being attacked because we couldn't fight back to save our lives, and with the new nerfs we can't run and hide anymore. What Template of jedi has any use? MLS\MDef is the only recourse? You will just nerf it as soon as we all switch to that aswell.


Someone plz tell me the benifits to grinding all my spare time for the last 2 yrs. (yea yea I dont want to hear about the ppl who dont have lives and grind 24/7 I get a few hours a night)


Flame away

Because thats what I want to do to enjoy the game, be a jedi. I didn't sign on to be uber or elite.

Well not much of a reason to become one these days.



I hate Gungans, I hate Ewoks and I hate Jawas....so why am I a Rebel you ask? It is my overriding hate of the MAN !!!

Im asking myself that question now. Now that Im jedi Im wishing I was MBH/MCM again. I never realized how truely underpowered jedi is. I guess the devs would call the 7-8 months we put into getting up to jedi and full template a balance.

It's the Great Jedi Hoax.

They advertise that you can become Jedi but what they don't tell you in those ads is that the Jedi's are hated by the Dev community and everyone else, that the Jedi are content for the other classes, that the Jedi are the underpowered underdogs, and that it take you 10x as long to become jedi so you can run in fear at all the other classes.

WOW, perfectly said bud. Its sad really. Get in an rping guild and you will have fun with jedi. Stay away from places solo BHs wont go. Like, DWB, Corvette, Kash, hunting grounds, space, ext.

I'm not ready to buy into that yet, that Jedi are always doomed to suck. Though I feel like a full template Jedi is about the equivalent of a 60-70CL regular toon these days, plus they get hunted, so it sure feels like it.

what is wrong with the people on this forum? We have been nerfed and ignored since patch 9


you cried about permadeath. the devs did away with it. Yes.. because they were about to loose every one.. soon everyone would have jedi after the new of how to unlock it got out. how many would quit if they died and lost weeks or months of grinding?


you cried that getting jedi was to hard. the devs changed it to be much easier. Huh? Have you grinded FS lately? It takes a minimum of 18 weeks non stop FS grinding now.. i unlocked in 1 month and i did every profession in game.. some people unlocked on 3 professions.. how is it easier now?


you cried that skill loss was to harsh. it went away curtasy of the devs. This is also a misconseption linked to the first question.. how would you feel if you lost a skill you had already trained? Oh.. we hear you jedi. here you go.. you will loose 430k per death.. any death instead and get the crappiest xp on the server.(500xp per kill). oh by the way.. how does staying NEGATIVE 10 million XP sound to you because someone just happens to run by while your grinding with saber tef.. then FRS forced overt.


you whined about pve deaths losing xp. again the dves listen and jump to your request. Yup.. by this time.. everyone and his mama had a jedi and with the coming CU they knew we would be dying like flies... it was either this or we all just leave and they go on welfare.


now you cry that the reward in being a jedi is gone? what the hell did you expect the god damn risk is gone caused the devs listen to your nonstop whining. Yes.. the reward is gone.. it has been since a standard profession you can grind in one day can kill a jedi it takes week or months to grind in less than 3 hits. Ever see a Master Sword/TKA/CM fight a jedi? They can kill almost any jedi temp at close range in less than 5 hits period.. what happened to jedi being able to kill 30+ people.. or hell.. even being 1.5X stonger? Hell.. we cant even get good loot anymore without a BH alt to run elite missions.... Everyone and thier mama has a BH/CM now and with the coming nerfs jedi will be nothing more than a target in a robe with a large bullseye painted on his azz. How about give jedi a perma snare and 64-80m range to make it even? oh.. no.. what? the BH would whine.. well we cant have that now can we?



No biggie.. ill be going to WoW soon prob until Star Trek On-Line comes out.. wonder how many SOE will loose to this POS they are calling Nerf Wars now before its over?

Great post.

This is what I do as well. I'm greatly saddened by all the nerfs and the hate, but I do have fun with my guildmates.
