The correspondents and I have looked at this many times. Sorry, but its not an easy change. Damage types have a relationship to damage and by changing the damage type, it also changes the damage modifiers (numbers) and throws them out of whack. This is something Im checking to see if we can address in the weapon balance part of the larger combat balance, but I don't know what the answer might be. And in any event, concentrating on these minor things before the weapon balance isn't productive. We'll want to look at things when the combat balance is on TC.

They know how we feel as a majority, I'll be crossing my fingers for the weapon balance.

I'm not gonna hold my breath... sounds like a lot of double talk to me. They didn't have any troubles changing tuskens from kinetic to energy and then again changing the Lithitanium from kinetic to energy. And that doesn't quite jive with what that liar Keldarin said about kinetic being a "protected" damage type reserved for melee (and pistoleers) only.
