All the NS were unarmed ..... and No NS used Force Power ....

I'm a Chef/Pikeman (By choice mind you) myself ... and I managed to solo the whole Forced Labor Camp cave (minus the Elder *sigh*) ... hell I soloed a Protector and a Stalker togheter ... They are quite easy whitout their Force Weaken/Choke/Lightning

I want the old cave back !! hell ... if someone like me can solo it ... it is not even fun for a "true" combat character ...hopefully they will fix it quick ...

Also ... I noticed more loot ... Usually I can solo 2/3 of the cave whitout looting anything (exept a locked container and some Disks)... and Tonight I looted 3 NS Lance (One nice Action Fire =P) and 7 NS Layers ... ah and a Locked Container !!...

More Loots ... Easier ... hell it was already too easy ... NO ONE should be able to solo the cave ... but now a Chef/pikeman can ...

*sigh*

PS

As a side note ..have you heard the TKM Crying that the Devs killed all the Melee professions because they removedTKA's Dizzy/KD move lol ... this is so funny ... they killed All MELEE because they removed a TKA Move lolll... (I read this by 3 differents people on the GCW board ... man these guys think they are the center of the world lol)

Take care

I did the run yesterday and was amazed though not so pleasantly. Took a Master Heavy Swordsman/Master Doctor along and run the Forced Labor camp, literally tore through it in minutes then got stalled by the Elder but only for so long until she went down. So we thought "What the hell, this is not right." and thought we'd try out the Stronghold Caves, with that luck we might pick on Axkva and so we did. Emptied the caves with minimal effort without even a single incap or serious threat. All the Nightsisters were acting TKA without even a VK and did not use a single Force Power ONCE. So we reach Axkva, manage to lure her away and start hitting hard, if it wasn't for the armor hole she was too happy to hit, as a sidenote she landed a 5k UH3 through the hole, we'd have taken her out too.

While it was certainly more rewarding to wade through hordes of enemies the less challenge seemed to be much less fun. I want their Force Powers back so I can feel threatened and get surprised when they fire those 4k Mind Force hits. The loot did not seem out of the ordinary however, I seemed to be getting two or three NS Lances per Forced Labor Camp sweep and the odd container pre patch so nothing weird there. I've still to loot a good Lance from there aside the first double DoT NS Lance I got yesterday with Health Disease/Poison.

On topic, bring the NS Force Powers back and while you're at it at least tune the loot drops of certain mobs, hurts my feelings to spend 30 minutes to kill the Elder and get nothing, I've gotten more loot from Rancor Tamers than Elders and Spellweavers together.. Some high level mobs should be dropping things ALL the time, even if they don't drop uber things.
