well do you expect to win 5 against 1???

Thing is people can gang bang all they want... but when the chance to knockdown someone is like .01% with even 5 people doing it it won't happen often... and I have to say if 5 people with "the whip" have to even bother using it on killing someone.... then maybe you want to spend the credits on a weapon better than a CDEF.... just an idea there.... and as for MOBS... if the thing is soooo huge that it stays alive through a massive beating of 5 pistoleers... then it would eventually have been knocke down enough that it would start ignoring the knockdown all together using the "scaling resits" lets use an ATST for example... a bunch of people knock it down... blah blah blah do it a bunch...lets say getting it to Half though I doubt it... woops knocked it down too much now its practically immune to KD uhoh... we were all dumb and standing next to it... uhoh... we all seem tobe dead...

and well 5 people should be able to hold one person down and kill them no prob... happens all the time... safety in numbers and all....

Out of curiosity, did they lower the HAM costs on the knockdown moves now that they're on a timer? I'm sick of toting around CDEF weapons.

Jodun, i like the idea for the resist on the KD, great idea.

Zerona, 5 people we coordinated will be able to keep someone down for a long time anyways. Aside from that 5 on 1... comon, we are not using 5 on 1combat scenariosas the standard for judgement are we??

"uh, I was taking on 5 pistoleers and they kicked my arse by alternating knockdowns, their knockdown is too powerful" If it is 5 on 1, you got other things than the knockdown to worry about.

that should read

"5 people well coordinated" no edit =[

so we just have to be uber gimps untill they fix our class?

Actually no, there was a net increase on the HAM cost for knockdown attacks on Test Center according to the patch notes. Sony wont be satisfied until they nerf KD into oblivion.

u know i have a new idea. this may sound really dumb but it just might work. i say we just tell the devs to ignore us completly for a couple of weeks. lets them make those other proseesions stronger and fixed. then have themcome back to us when we are weak so that we don't get nerfed anymore.otherwise they are just going to nerf us... make us strong.... nerf us..... make us strong.... nerf us.... and so on.either that or the devs should ellimenate all nerfs until all professions are fixed. i dunno that might sound stupid but thats my 2credits.

Take away ranged KD and you pretty much ruin the purpose of master pistoleer, especially since weapon speed has almost no bearing at that point.

Seems to me if you just increase the base resist to knockdown for everything across the board you will solve the problem.

Also seems to me that the Devs are determined to force me to leave the one game I really was looking forward to playing for the last 2 years. *sigh*

accually later in the patch notes it says they are dropping the KD costs. I thought it was funny that they said they were both raising it and lowering it in the same patch. Look if you dont believe me.

Yes and afterwords when questioned about it, a dev spoke up and said the end result of the changes was an increase.
