We don't get our own specialized revamp, we get fixed with the combat balance.

Which from what I am reading in the "State of the Game" letter, they are putting off till god knows when. Plus the fact we have no idea what they plan to do or not do. They just told us everything will be "looked" at in the combat balance.

Why is the combat balance being put off?
The combat balance is another massive overhaul. We want to get a lot of player feedback from it, and make sure we have it right before we put it in the game (to avoid another Crafting Experimentation situation).
So once again they are putting the majority of combat classes on hiatus. I have NO idea how long and have no clue how much feedback they need. Those IC ideas were made back in January.
So good job SOE for once again showing your incompetence.

I'd rather have a well thought out plan than a hastily put together POS that made combat even worse.

Well considering all we ever got from the devs were "Wait for Combat Balance" then they come up with this crap. And will now have to wait LONGER!
There will be no Pikeman revamp as there arent enough Pikeman to "waste" time on you. Sorry but its true. As far as the combat balance that is gonna happen sometime well after the Space Expansion is released, well, that revamp might not happen as you will be distracted with the Space Expansion. You, as a group, are too easy to passify.
But honestly, think about it. Why would they dedicate resources to a class no one plays???

Probably the same reason why they bothered to put the Nightsister Energy Lance in the game, probably why they changed the range modifiers on weapon, probably why they spent ages motion capturing for the proffession, probably why they modelled all the weapons and art work for the proffession.....the list goes on.

Well, since no one has stepped up to flame this guy, I'll have to chomp at the bit.
