Thread: Posted for Emphasis
This is taken from the Jedi GCW poll post. (which u all should vote in... be heard.)
The response is one of the best I've read, and it deserves it's own post.

And you dont think soloing a canyon krayt in 30 seconds is too powerful. And why does it matter if damge can or cant be resisted, If jedi arent fighting normals anymore?
It seems jedi just want god mode back, they want to be able to solo anything in the game with outhaving to even think of a strategy... I have no problem with removing jedi from GCW and with removing Jedi Bounties, but why do these propsals always include making jedi many times stronger than they are now. Why do you need to kill krayts in 30 seconds rather than a few minutes? Why do you want the game to have no challenge.
The whole point of making Jedi more powerful in PvE is to increase the Jedi feel and make the game more fun, less boring. Let us "pwn" mobs. Let us be uber against Artificial Intelligence. Who cares? The NPCs don't. Before the CU, I was MLS/Mhealer/4004Enhancer. My advanced saber throw was an AoE with a knockdown. The imps placed a ton of PvE bases around a Rebel city. I went around absolutely destroying those NPCs. Corpses everywhere. Yes, I cracked a grin, and let out an evil laugh. It was fun. Let me tell you, what isn't fun is sitting there for 5 minutes, wacking a mob over and over with a so-called Lightsaber. That is boring. Challenging? NO! Boring! It's still easy, it just takes way longer and that removes the fast paced exciting fun that Jedi could have pre-CU in PvE.
I am all for putting measures in place to prevent Jedi from dominating dungeons like the DWB or other loot areas. I want to be a powerful Jedi, like in the movies, but not at the expense and grief to other players. Hence my suggestion to remove us from the GCW, give us our own Jedi war, and give us the SAME PvE power we had pre-CU. I don't want to be able to kill everything in one swipe. 35 seconds to kill a Krayt is long enough. They don't drop anything good anymore, so who cares if Jedi can rack up a lot of "Good" pearls. If you make it take longer, it isn't fun and it gets very boring. The only AI that should give Jedi a tough, very challenging fight, are those who wield Lightsabers.
