Thread: Humanoid NPCs RED to Master Pistoleer
To give you an idea about me. I'm a Master Pistoleer, BH 0 0 2 0, Novice Medic. Species is Wookiee. I was unbuffed and had no armor, but I shouldn't have to have them to kill some random NPC.

Yes, there are tough things that can kill you.
Ok you missed the point. A non-named NPC should not beable to be more powerful than a player. I could see them being the SAME, but not MORE powerful. I could see some NAMED NPCs being able to do so, but not a stormtrooper or a merc. Players are supposed to be powerful. Not less than a lacky. And not so much less that the lacky has to thump you three times before you die. NO nonnamed NPC should own any player of and MASTER combat profession.
I'm sorry I don't know what you are talking about. In PVE (against NPCS) I can hold my own just fine. That is of course, at LEAST with my armor AND a mind buff (Vasarian Brandy) so I can heal myself. Of course without primary buffs I am healing myself about once every 4 seconds... but....
I can run out into the wild... and you know how since the ''Imperial Crackdown'' (LOL) the Stormtroopers will all stand around in the wild in perfect formation and groups of 10-15... I can go out there and fanshot the whole group to death in about 30-45 seconds, and not worry if I'll die or not. Now... If I were relying only on my pistol skills... I KNOW I would die in like 15 seconds. The only thing keeping me standing is that Nov Medic. I think thats why I last longer than most Master Pistoleers do in PVP because I keep healing myself as the battle goes on. But sooner or later, I eventually get owned.

wrongo. I am a paying customer who is supposed to be playing the greatest story ever told.... mine. When I first started playing the game, I was under the imperession you could make your self ledgendary. Maybe not like Han or Boba Fett, but at least beable to kick some stormtrooper's butt. Common.

OK you shouldn't NEED buffs AND armor to take a non-named NPC. That's just silly.
and I SHOULD be able to rely on just my pistol skills just for stormies. That's the whole point of having them. Otherwise they're just useless. People shouldn't have to go around being buffed the whole time you're in combad and in full combosite armor. And to tell me I am silly for even suggesting that is wrong.
Should stormtroopers be tough? Yes, but not to a master of ANY combat profession. I hate to think that I'm weaker than princess leia in PVE.

Well, Nym and other things on Lok can be tough. More tough than a little thug. And I would expect anyone fighting them without armor, buffs, spice, to possibly get killed. Even masters. Just because it doesn't have a name doesn't mean it can't be hard. There are tusken raiders, dune stalkers, and such, not everything is going to be an easy target. Your not unstoppable, get used to it.
Again, I shouldn't need that (armor buffs spice) to take out some lackies (stormtroopers, guards, etc.).
And no kidding I'm not unstoppable. I should be stoppable, but it should take more than three stormies to kill me. I'm sorry, but that's wrong.

I shouldn't need an AT-ST with me to fight some punk-butt lackies either. And BTW TKAMs own stormtroopers.
Why am I the only one who seems to get that being weaker than a stormtrooper is just wrong when you're a master combat profession? Not only am I a master pistoleer, but I have eye shot with BH as well.
