Thread: Concussion Shot Nerf
Before you say the "Risk Vs Reward" has nothing to do with the skill trees or way you grind them, Read this...
New system is "Death Vs Reward" the reward of getting the uber loot needed to slice that 1.0 on your super ubert-21, is of course at a highchance at death, since how-ever their found on high lvl mobs...not to smugglerish is it.
Old system was "Good Vs Bad" the good slices were often but ever once and a while you'd be sure to screw up a few nice weps, and oh yes i have lost customer's just from one bad slice, another way this "Risk Vs Reward" System worked was that a Master Smuggler was able to do a higher % of slicing and at the same time also doing more negative % on a failed item, or "complete failure" in all.
All that we asked for was a better way to determine the initial outcome of a slice (Speed/Damage), whether or not it is "Good or Bad" was not the issue but was the "Risk Vs Reward".

I am a master pistoleer/smuggler (CL80)and play the game primarily solo. Not having a root shot is devistating for me. They talk about improving the game for solo play this is a step back. Perhaps the answer is to have different attacks act differently depending whether you are in a group or solo.
It is hard enough now, I mean pre-publish 19. I cannot take on level 90+ critters since I just dont have enough hitting power. Even with root - I manage to die often enough fighting CL82 mobs,since i need to be so close.
The game should be challenging (I get that now) it should not be impossible expecially for a solo player. There are any missions I cannot attempt, even with root, expecialy those with multiple mobs.
Ans as a solo player, how the hell and i going to get the special drops for slicing !!!

Grouping is fine, as long as you can control the group. As the chiefCCers, it is part of the role to assume command of your group.
I mean look at Han and Lando - both Generals.
Assume your rightful position as the most important person in any group and you will succeed.

CONCUSSION SHOT IS NOT NERFED !!!
It works perfectly well! It clearly allows you to manage even a group of opponents: just mezzed them with concussion shot and then select the one to kill first and attack him with any shot you want but not concussion shot, if another one awaken in between mezzed it again...
This new concussion shot is clearly a big step for us in the "crowd control" direction.

QFE.
My concussion shot works just fine. Maybe those who think it is broken would be better off playing KOTOR II with the cheat codes..... stupid #$@#%s.
