the CURB *is* a nerf, it's just a nerf to everyone. They can put fancy names like "upgrade" or "rebalance" but in the end, they are making everyone weaker. PvP may be better off for it, but say goodbye to high-end mob soloing.

Whaaa... Grow up. You sound like one of these Jedis, whining that they can't be uber-133t and insti-kill anything in the game. You know, you actually should not be able to solo anything in the game. If the CURB changes that, then it is all for the better.

who the hell is whining about anything? ahahaha, I was just stating the facts, spazz. I look forward to the CU with anticipation.

WellI willsay is you may be surprised by the changes the CURB brings - In the terms of what you call a nerf, all professions will be,you are correct andour combat strength will drop - but do not be surprised if Rifleman stayhigh in pvp and in pve in terms of relative damage strength to other professions. I think we should expect to see the professions become distinctive again and be all worthy of play. That is the Goal of the Curb - not to make others gods or us weaklings but to make all combat professions viable in most situations

My definition of Nerf in a game means something completely different - a Nerf in my mind is needless removing and lowering of abilities that makes a profession less desirable and lowers a player below what the original intended power level was. I don't view the Curb as a needless downgrade on players powers nor do I see it making our profession less desirable. As for orginal intended power level a Red Con in this game was to indicate a creature with which you would not last more then a few secs in combatunless you weregrouped.

While many red cons probably shouldnot be even red con after the curb other creatures - legendary creatures such as Adult Krayts, The Gorax,The Acklay, and NS Elders should be. We should be actively afraid of them - a Creature that stands 50 feet tall and can beat down an AT-AT should be feared - A female that can throw lighting and Force toss you should be a scary thought, Krayts are supposed to be able to eat trucks whole.. and in the movies the tuskans fled when they heard what sounded like one...
