Come on , all the other changes are legit , but the snare is just overboard and will make it a basically useless skill . A.I. didn't need a snare and this doesnt either. And all you so called jedi cheering for another jedi nerf should have your heads examined. Sure it is cloak today but what about tomorrow when your favorite skill gets nerfed. It is time we stood up for our proffession. I reccomend everyone who doesnt agree with the upcoming cloak NERF to send our "correspondent" private messages and let him know why you think it should be stopped. Jedi is supposed to be different than other profs but yet we are getting dumbed down more and more with each patch.

See that's what happens when skills get abused, they get nerfed.

I don't think you can stop nerfing of powers but I mentioned something about maybe removing the snare through an alternate advancement idea

I don't mind the healing, looting, or logging out breaking cloak.. That should effectly stop the exploiters. Here is what irks me:
Devs say it's supposed to be our "first strike" capability... ok.. What jedi uses it in PVE to gain the "first strike"? Maybe a very rare instance with a high lvl mob, but that's about it...
So then let's look at PVP.. Which takes place 99% of the time now inside a city, often coronet or the MO.. Where there are dozens upon dozens of npc's. If we are supposed to cloak outside these cities, then slowly walk with a snare up to our mark, what good will it be fighting if we even get up to the mark before we run out of force? The force drain in npc's alone is pretty harsh on cloak, giving it the snare will make no sense with the devs logic here.. Granted we don't un-cloak due to running out of force, in a choke/lightning, we'll be empty.
IMHO, all of the proposed changes will keep the skill from being abused, MINUS the snare.. I have no idea where this even came from. I can understand AI getting the snare, as it was deemed as a "last resort" where you are prolly gonna die anyway, take a few of them with you.. With a snare on cloak our chance to even be able to fight is next to nil

No I said abused, not whined, there is a big difference.
