Man, thatis funny.

Sniper would be a good name

My question is why do you even need elite-elite classes? You are already entirely ovepowered and capable of soloing just about anything in the game anyway. What's the point?

The point being that Sony needs to keep people hooked on the game and since it seems to be farily easy to master most any profession (most other MMORPGs it takes at least few months - was a couple weeks before the first masters showed up here) so I really do think that there will be quite a few "elite-elite" professions to keep people playing/paying (not to mention that if you read the Player City update, they come right out and tell you that elite elites are coming).

Now, is it really needed? Well... perhaps not right now, but I'm sure it's only a matter of time before new planets open up that are harder than anything out there where you'll need these elite-elite professions. If you're familiar at all with Everquest's history, you can follow this profressive path pretty well... it worked for them with that game and I don't see them straying too far from the formula.

Does anybody know (or at least have heard - i.e. rumors) whether any of this "elite-elite" profession stuff will include more skill points?

Just curious.

Thanks

No i dont know if they are going to make one, no i dont know if they ever willbut if they do what do you think it will be called or do? personaly i think its going to be just plain ole sniper, though maybe something like stalker or assassin would be cool (i could see those going to bh to). i could also see maybe headshot going up to maybe 4 mind shot going 3, maybe a disarming shot like pistol has but it unequip the weapon so you have to reequiped kinda like Eq's disarm, but i dunno its late im bored and was woundering what you guys thought

Bah I wouldn't mind if they were Master BH's, then they really have used the skillpoints and should have an advantage in PvP. It's all the folks with one skill tree of BH that think they should be godlike that annoy me.

Actuallly if there should be an elite one because skill pts arnt all used on that skill tree, I hope they do add an elite one. And like when you do go up the sniper path we should be harder to pick up on radar, because seriously in rl snipers are hard to spot they have heavy ass camo, wheres ours? we are the snipers our range should be made longer, and should be harder to spot er something on that end.

I would prefer game content as opposed to another mile or two to run on the level treadmill. I'd also like to hear sony define "ranged support."

Think about it thought we are like the snipers of the game, why not be harder to see on radar?, range on out guns should be longer to.

Probably not, I would imagine that an elite-elite class would take up a nice 216 or whatnot like BH does. Because you probably have to master an elite profession, then another. I don't think they will be hooking us up with more skill points, since we really don't need Master BH/ Master Pistoleer players.

Cheese

What they could do is put in "Elite" skill points that can only be used for these elite-elite classes.

Greetings. I love the elite skill point idea. SCS is bad enough. SCS with elite-elites will multiply it ten times over.
