Holocron: (about TKA's)

What gives is that they are also way overpowered. That's why I keep saying "don't compare yourselves to pistoleer" (or whatever). As I mentioned in the "Open Discussion On Balancing" thread in SWG Discussion, everyone feels they are underpowered because they are comparing themselves to pistoleers. But they're missing the point that pistoleers are way OVERpowered, and so is most everyone else. If we balance everyone off of pistoleer, the game will be WAY easier, you'll run out of content in a trice, you'll say there's no high end game, etc etc. And the core of the issue isn't that there's no tough mobs, is that players are way way overpowered.

So, based on the above logic, you are going to be nerfing PISTOLS right, Pistoleers and BH's which are a dime a dozen. NOPE, you see fit to squash the viabiltiy of the pinnacle RIFLE....

Hmmm... me think ssomeone needs to do a massive re-balancing of the OVERpowered then, not devastation to the already marginal.....

but then again, I could be just an idiot...

never discount that possibiltiy lol j/k

But really, why are they doing this, nobody knows except SOE. I don't think they even know

I too, am baffled by this post.

He states that Pistoleers are the most OVERpowered class in the game.

Then goes on to nerf Riflemen . . .

How can everyone be overpowered...? If someone is overpowered, someone must be underpowered (poor commandos).

Todays patch notes. "Fixed the bug where DEs were starting to have fun as rifleman."

Why did I pick the two most gimped professions. In theory a droid engineer and rifleman combo sounds fun, but SOE continues to destroy that dream with EVERY PATCH. Yesterday I was estatic. I was having a blast not dying for once.

this needs to be said in general forum
