...I know it won't change anything but I am extreamly pissed about this...it took me since day one to finally get my freaaking second bleed hit...and now in the next patch they are ripping it away from me...
I like soloing my self, not a huge fan or grouping or having to group...Instead of screwing us and everyone agian, why couldn't they just add resists to everything agianst bleeds..Ive had it to here*raises hand above head* ...
/rantoff...
sorry guys need to release steam....back to happy go lucky CLab... :shifty:

If you read StGabe's post about bleeds, the devs said they want to add DoT resists to every creature, but did not have the time, so they started with the AT-ST. And they didn't take actionhit2 away from you, they made actionhit1 completely useless once you get actionhit2.

calm down
All this means is that you'll be able to slap a 2-3K DOT on a mob instead of a 5-6K DOT on a mob.
That's still pretty good.

hey now, wait a second... the way I see it at the moment is that it has been an increase in power for us pikeMen. I've begun to have dreams of 20 pikeMen bleeding away a Gorax on Endor these last nights, so let's just not loose hope of this great potential yet

Sound off on my GCW post. Rifleman can outdamage Pikeman and Swordsman without bleeds. They also get more melee defense and can shoot 64 m away.

The DOT nerf, and I will call it a nerf is based soley on the bloody jedi pieces of *&^% who no doubt were using the 'anyone certified to use the DOT nightsister lances' to never pull out a lightsaber and get full jedi xp. Therefore you can't not stack bleeds to kill something huge with bleeds or poison alone, and if you are it's going to take a long time riding around on a speeder to wait for the thing to die, AND you need to be certified to use the DOT lances now. Let's have a big cheer for the jedi system again,that not only came up with the best ways to ruin the fun of professions, but are now taking away the shred of power pikeman were given as a distraction... yahhhh jedi...

It seems like it's to act off one bleed for each pool. So, theoretically we can still use multiple staffs in PvP. And with a mind or health targeting profession you can place more than one bleed. However, where I would see the benifit is in having two pikemen apply action hits and both sticking. Two carbs applying their action hits and them both sticking. After putting some thought into it, it is a lil strange givin we complain about not being able to solo red con mobs. Most other games you would be crazy to attempt it. Give it some time though, the people on TC are all over it, give em a few days to play around.
