this is just a thought of mine. we all need the ls to do some dmg to eachother and to the mobs too, but i see the ls as a verry unbalanced weapon with the skills needed to use it. heres my solution: make ls one handed as a part of healer with generation 4 in masterbox. make 2 handed a part ofdefender with the same rules as for onehanded and finally make the doublebladed a part of enhancer. this would mean that all ls became available to the temp u choose. powers should have no ls at all since it is POWERS and still need a change in dmg dealing with them.

also make the skills xpensiver so that its only possible for 2 masterywith nothing moore. this would balance the jedi proffession alot and we can all live happily ever after. plz give me some feedback if u think its a good or bad idea

sry about misspells and so

Lol well i have to say you didn't think this out did you...

Well i have a better idea how about make Jedi Iniate more like Brawler where you can go up a tree to get to a specialized area for that weapon, and remove defender as you can put these defences into theseareas then everyone can choose there weapons of choice and have mods / abilities for each weapon..

so you could have Say a Master Polearm saber specialist, or a One Handed Saber Specialist and finaly a Two Handed Saber specialist..

Each area been able to craft and produce better weapons for that Profession and allow you to be a little more focused and make it so each style of combat for LS has is better in different areas for instant say

One Handed is for speed and is great at1 v 1 but is ok for Crowd Control,

Two handed is for Dmg and okat 1 v 1 and ok at crowd control,

Double BladedGreatfor Crowd Control and ok at 1 v 1

i think this would make the templates more personal and beneficial as some like to be good at 1 v 1 some prefere a more group role. E.t.c.

But for this to work you will need to reduce sp costs on the LS skills

IGN Dagis

ok i didnt make my self clear on this then. i dont want the ls in the proffessions to be uber.....

make them diffrent according to the temp u choose. no armor breake or dervish for healers.

armor breake should be suited for defenders and dervish for enhancer.

i know its hard to play as masterpowers master enhancer but u can do good in pvp and in pve as well but its how u play your temp that matters.

His idea sounds good although its flawed......

How about instead of one two double tech in the LS trees why dont you have.....

Block/Finesse/style/tech

Block +5 a box

Finesse + add new saber moves

style Certain LS stances that give + bonus to what ever stance you have active

tech +crafting exp ect

and make it so at novice you can craft 1st gen, and all tech boxes give you +1 2nd gen (ALL LS) +2 3rd gen +3 4th gen +4 nothing and at master you get to craft a special Master saber which is ONLY for master.... which will be a sort of 5th gen.

Yes this doesnt take away the saber tree but tbh you cant take it away.....

but this way you get more fun out of it and you onlyneed 1 branch (tech) for all saber forms, that opens up another range(tree)for someone who would like some extra skills,but if you do invest in master you get to have a slightly better saber......

Although you havent gone very deep in detail with your idea, I like the concept very much...

Defenders with two-handed sabers, which I imagine as a very defensive style saber, One-handed for healers for

i didnt go far in the idea cause i wanted some feedbacks first. the idea is not to take away the ls as a single proffession but to give the other proffessions in jedi a balance. im still interessted in keeping ls as a proffession but i want the master of the other proffessions to have a chance to craft a ls that can be gen 4 too but also that they shouldnt have all the diffrent hits as a master ls still would get if he chooses that as a proffession.

all jedis today needs to grind up ls in some way 0404 is a good choice for us who dont want the mastery due ro armorbreake but it takes manny skills away from the other proffessions in jedi. if u want to kill a decent bh u have to have it. why shouldnt a master enhancer be able to craft a good ls but not being able to use them as well as a mls? why shouldnt a mls be able to do moore dmg than the rest of the jedi just as well as a mdef can protect himself better than the master enhancer? all jedi proffessions are uniq but a ls is needed for all jedi no matter what temp u choose.

masterpowers are havin seriously trouble killing a good bh due to the lack of dmg. is that right or even balanced? the emperor would have killed luke with no problem unless Vader had thrown him away. ok i know luke hadnt killed a zillion of animals before and all that but still a ls is needed for all jedis. i admire the once tryin to play as menh mpow but they have to run away from manny fights cause they cant defeat the opponents with the dmg they are doin.

i want and hope that a mls should be the mayor dmg dealer in the future too and i want the mdef to be able to tank just as well as the mpow should be able to kill an other player of decent skills and not cloak and run cause thats what they have to do alot of and no one likes that. not the opponents and not the mpow either.

add one line of speed attacks one line of defensive saber hits and one line of high dmg in the ls skill three and the master should also be able to wield and craft all diffrent types of ls. the balance should be restored to the proffessios in an instant and maybe some new master healers should show up too at least i hope they would.
