I think that this post by TH offers hope to those of us 'lesser (j/k)' professions.

Be careful and read it tiwce. I misread it the first time and about got myself banned .

After a third read through, I realize that that post is vague, but I prefer to read through the lines (TH is bague on purpose).

I don't get it.

Does this have something to do with double P-Darts or Adhesive Mesh?

Yeah, I suppose it helps if you keep up with the thread. The gist of it is, TH made the Tuesday tip about stopping shot (pistoleer root special) and all the Jedi/Bh came out to complain about how overpowered it was. TH's post basically says that the special is about more than just the BH/Jedi debate.

Sheesh....3/4th of the post in there are half assed and retarded. Makes me wanna haul them out and give them a few slaps (BH and Jedi alike). Sheesh. I was a pistoleer when I first started and had changed to rifleman for extra damage and range. Now with respec I am now master pistols and BH (for defenses and such) and I am LOVING pistoleer. But man, stopping shot is a NEEDED skill for pistoleers as pistols aren't about dishing out damage.

But who cares about what specials are NECESSARY for other professions as long BH/Jedi cant be kept happy.

Bleh....that post made me sick.

not to burst your bubble, but I've learned not to read between the lines with TH... considering most of the time he's thanking me for info when I'm asking him a question

I'd say something about this being par for the course for Jedi/BH, but then I'd sound like a cynical, jaded, jerk. Oops, too late.

There's an art to reading one of TH's posts. It goes like this "Now, after reading that, what do I think I thought it said?" Because sure as fate he'll have meant the diametrical opposite but because he's being gnomish and vague 99% of the population will think he meant what they think they thought they read....

Very close to the "Peter Principle" don't you think?

Can't see what they are complaining about tbf.

1st if they are on the terminals thats their fault anyway.

2nd you can heal and fight back from range if your rooted so its not like your completely useless. With warcry you were completely uselss so its not a valid comparison.

3rd it takes 3 players to effectively do this and no player should expect to be able to survive against 3 others anyway.

1st: A Jedi can be in the far reaches of Dathomir, and if some other Jedi trying to hunt with no one around stumbles on them, they wind up on the terms. Not to mention it's *very* hard to hunt solo for younger Jedi right now, so they're basically forced to group--which raises their visibility. They can no longer control it if they want to be Jedi.

2nd: A BH with a rifle has a 65 yard range before modifiers. Add in that +10 arm and it's 75 yards. I'm not sure Jedi can get that far.

3rd: I have no idea what you're talking about in #3.

I know that you think you understand what you thought he said, but I'm not sure that you realize that what you may have heard is not similar to what he didn't mean to say.

Also, even though food stacking is no longer allowed in the way that was "abused," there is the ability to slap on accuracy increasing foods and try to beat their defense to add damage.
