On TH post "Folloy Up July 21" where is getting broken specials going to fit into the priorities of the "hotfixes" coming out between now and JTL?

Not that I'm keeping my fingers crossed, because I'm to the point of "I'll believe it when I see it".

Sorry, you're right, I misread it. Swap Pistoleer/Smuggler for Commando/Smuggler

If we could read the secret history of our enemies, we should find in each man's life sorrow and suffering enough to disarm all hostility

I'm surpised us smugglers weren't on top of their list but i guess thats believable because my prof is still broke *but i still think that they should keep the dirty fighting the way it is ALL THE SKILLS ARE FINE!

Well... that doesn't help me any, either way.

Bah, I really wish commando had more than one worthwhile line. I'm not kidding when I say I can outdamage a Krayt HAR with my DX2 (in DPS and even single shots often, thanks to stopping shot.)

On the other hand there's the option of the flame thrower, which is quite tastey. The pistoleer is stuck with that DX2 style damage

I read that smuggler was after the combat rebalance?

1) JTL

2) Combat Rebalance

3) Smuggler Revamp

Can anyone collaborate?

Hehe, while this is true, it's kinda funny now that I have a DE-10, it kills faster than my FT ever did. The real problem with the commando weapons is that they're so darn slow, that even with a high up-front damage, the overall DPS is pretty low when you can only fire once every 8 seconds or so.

Of course if I didn't have any BH that might be a different story on the DE-10...

No list has been distributed yet, not even to the correspondents. I'll let you know as soon as there is of course. For now we've just been talking about what is feasable and what would have the greatest amount of gain for the least amount of programming hours. I'll be honest that little of the discussion to date has been concerning profession specific fixes. I get the feeling they want to get things like the HAM Revamp or Buff/Armor rebalancing done before then, as it affects everybody.

The good news is that we all submitted a list of profession specific precombat balance fixes, which means it will go into consideration. We'll keep our fingers crossed until we learn more.
