Last night was my first time Rancor hunting. We were a group of five. Luckly there was a doctor with us who buffed the entire group. Also,my first time useing a Doctor's buff. I've never been able to spam our specials untill last night. Good grief, we are awsome. Not only was it fun just to watch but the damage done to those poor rancors was awe inspiring. My LVA and armor are just store bought, nothing special. Important lesson learned....Doc buff's + special moves = dead,dead,and dead mobs.

Usually the ham costs are very high, for me at least, that after a few specials my action bar will be depleted. When using buffs I could spam away. As it stands right now, unless you have a weapon with very low ham costs, no armor, and no food/drink, spaming specials, especially at the speed cap can hurt you more than your opponent.

Yeah I hope the combat balance will fix the HAM problem when unbuffed. Whilebuffs are useful, Iwish we could be less dependant on them to survive.

Im always using specials, every hit, and my HAM bar is rarely affected, and this is when I am not buffed. I've always read posts about people complaining about the HAM issue but I just don't see it. Well, I hope you guys get what you wish for.

I could see that happening if you had a LVA experimented all into ham costs, then you'd be looking at like 60-200 damage though at 8 speed.
