Unless Arjun was playing on TC his Jedi was never very high and relied soley on experiences with his Jedi Master on TC. That doesn't make a good correspondent. To this day I think that had we had a Correspondent who knew what he was doing with a jedi of all levels, and one who had a firm grasp of Jedi PvP/PvE and the Jedi proffession in General, our one big patch would not have been such a failure.Arjun, you will be missed.To the new Correspondent(HavelockVetinari for Correspondent!!!!) I hope you can fix the many problems and balancing issues with out profession.PS. Arjun ... Final question, how does someone who does nothing but board whore/ back you up on the forums etc .... prove they would be a valuable Jedi to test the Combat Revamp? Again a Jedi with a firm knowledge of the profession and Post Publish 9- Jedi PvP would help us a lot more than someone who can post about 1 - 2 things and make himself look good, SOLELY on the forums. Yet again I would have nominated one of the Jedi from my server, being the PvP Server after all. (HavelockVetinari for Sandbox Tester!!!)

Old System.
1. Permadeath/ 3 deaths you lose skill boxes.
2. Kintic sabers
3. Very low xp caps Padawan 300 xp Cap / Knight 500 xp Cap /Guardian 900 xp Cap
4. Saber Teff
5. Very low Force regan took up to 20 min to gain force back
6. Sabers broke when repairing them
7. Paying 10+ mill for a pearl worth as**** to put in your saber
8. Padawan 100k jedi xp per buff. Knight 200k per buff. Guardian 300k per buff.
9. 4k max force pool
10. dizzy kd = death
11. The cost of a old system jedi was around 40 mill a month, for armor and saber resources.
New System
1. You can die get rezed and only lose very little xp
2. Sabers have there own damage and can hit up to 14000 in a area in pve!!!
3. Xp cap if you do saber tree first 1200 xp!!!
4. 700k jedi xp per buff W.T.F????????
5. Sabers don't break when repairing and the best crystals cost no more then 500k LOL!!!!
6. You have access to ablities that we didnt' get until we were high lvl guardians.
7. You can have other professions along with jedi so you can feign death, force of will, have uber defence, etc......
8. You can walk around freely with minum risk of being killed, when before a bh would attack you when your at a starport then everyone and there mother tried killing you cause you were teffed!!
9. Insane saber block, and force regan that even 4/4/4/4 guardians could never dream of having.
10. huge incress in force pools, 7200 force for most ranked jedi
11. you can heal on your backs
Prenerfed Jedi vs New Jedi New jedi would win.
Old system jedi had armor sure but the new ones can use synthsteak/forcearmor/other prof templates/ uber saber toughness, and huge force pools to keep healing themselfs. So for those of you who come on the fourms and cry about how hard it is in the new system i can only laugh at you.
Overall i think arjun has done a great job, and if we can ever get FRS fixed jedi will be awsome. Good luck with the sandbox testing.

You must be on crack.. 14,000 in an AE attack? what? Then look at "old Jedi" and your food issues.. back then, NOONE had that food.. Jedi had 90% kinetic armour and sabers that did insane damabe (compared to now).. 4k Jedi xp on a LAIR with FT? You could actually AFK xp? We only get 2/3 of the skills -old- Jedi had?
The ONLY good thing about -new- Jedi over -old- Jedi is that we get to stack templates now too.. for while we are fighting at lower levels. Once we start getting Jedi skills though, we LOSE our defenses again...
The 'walking around at will' thing is crap too.. My -old- Jedi walked around at will too.. I got on the terms ONCE, and that was because I said "screw it, I'm running with my guild".. and that was AFTER the TEF was removed (IIRC).. New Jedi STILL have gank-squads that come with the BH .. until this last patch, that GTef was a killer, no question.. and NOW, we have high level Jedi roaming with BHs so the BHs can find the Jedi some FRS xp? bah..
You can't compare the old system to the new and say the new is "better" some how. Both systems had their perks..
