its you... Sorry this game isn't working out for you but a game with 275,000 players can't be doing everything wrong. Go play Final Fantasy because I'm seriously tried of all the people whining about how much this games sucks.



I love it, and this Jedi news has totally rekindled my interest in the FS slot.

It looks like 43% for Investigation II and above... I don't think we have data for Invest 0-1 yet...

I can forsee a change to Investigation 1, just because of the huge number of bugs and horrible droid issues in that level, but at 0 I don't think there needs to be too much of a change, at least not that much.


However, if there is, that goes a long way to ungriefing the terrible insurance system on our profession.

OH I don't think there SHOULD be any change at Invest 0.. though I would love to see a reason TO train Invest I... I mean right now NO ONE trains it.. we just skip it... kinda silly to even have it at this point

... or do other's fencer Specials also take from the mind pool instead of the action pool?



I've asked friends that are other professions and most of them say thier specials take from the Action pool. I have pistol skills and those take from the Action pool.


So why is it that when I use my sword and use a special, it takes from my Mind pool?


And yes, I've made sure this is what happens and that it's not just dropping from combat hits. I've even tested it out on Durni (a simple one or two hit kill) and watched the Mind drop instead of the Action. Yet when I use pistol specials it's the Action that drops....

All combat specials take from all HAM pools. When someone tells you that a special just takes from one pool, they are refering to the fact that each profession has one pool that is hit the hardest. For example, look at the HAM numbers on your weapon. You'll notice something like 45/35/30... or some other combination of numbers. The first number is what will be deducted from Health, the second from Action, and the third from Mind... after they are adjusted by the special attacks HAM multipliers.


So, no... you aren't crazy or bugged. What you are seeing is the norm. In order for a special to "only" take formt he Action pool, the weapon would have to show something like 0/72/0. Currently no weapons have a zero listed in their HAMs that I'm aware of.

Well, if I understand what you're saying, then my action should be the one that drops more than mind. I just checked and the ham on my sword is highest in the Action. Yet when I'm in a fight I can watch the Mind pool drop like a stone with every Special unless my mind is buffedwhile the Action hardly moves at all when I use Specials.

..Or does someone really hate us? Seems to me that almost all the threads have been 1-starred a million times.


Am I going crazy?

Wow!


Never seen so many stars. What does one-starring do to a thread?
