The Eclipse boards are just as bad. I think I've counted 4-5 posts in the last couple of days asking for Mind Fire pikes.
Just wish the FOTMers would go away..maybe someone can start posting about how completely uber Squad Leader is, and they'll migrate that way.
agreed....Eclipse is getting really bad...
I remember when it was like, 5 pikeman taking turns bidding...now they are all coming out of the wood-work...
it's annoying....
i concur... but that much money on a block tape is crazy... at least until they fix it... or change it... what would a +25 speed go for? 100 mil?

Ok I think some people are confused on something...
The cap of block / dodge / counterattack IS 125, but that is the cap that is on proffesion mods. For example if you are a pikeman / rifleman, the cap is 125.
If you are at that 125 cap, and you get another +25 tape, you can go up to 150. Then you can go up even further with food.
A fencer with +25 dodge tape can potentiall have +150 dodge ( Ya he needs to have some pistoleer dodge in their too to get to the 125 cap) then 45% pikkata pie (dodgefood). That leaves them with about 215 dodge for how long the food lasts.
That's how they are so damn hard to hit.
...and thats why people pay alot for a +25 block tape even though they are near or atthe cap.

Isn't almost every class FOTM anymore. I'm so tired of hearing that phrase lol.
I'm gonna set the new standard.... Master Droid Engineer/ Master Tailor/ Unarmed 3 = PvP god!

Whenever i see a good pike i want to bid on,the bid is like 1million++ almost all the time. I hope Pikeman will soon to be not a FoTM. Really cracks the economy at Eclipse imo Oh yeah.When i was onMining Outpost on Dantooine last time,i saw 10,yes 10 people wearing a pike or a Pikeman tag!

Omik from what I understood without food no mod can be over 125, ie ranged defense/block/dodge etc

no defensive mod can be inherently (the mod you get with just your professions, nothing more)over 125. However food, Squad Leader, and Stronghold do increase this.
