So my question about all this is... If i hit a jedi with panic shot or concusion are they still goin to beable to heal for the duration of this attack? I still think smuggler was fine before this patch. Now what do we have left thats good? The ability to make spice and buy FP and get FP cost breaks other then that smuggler use useless.

I still don't like it, and I've known about it.


We should have a root only special. Now we have a root + daze, and a plain daze. Both break on damage. What's the point of having both specials when they both break on damage. Now we don't even have a KD.


IMO, we've not taken a step forward to becoming crowd control, we've taken a step backwards.





"Jedi claims of being "broken" are like saying "But my TV isn't widescreen! It's broken! My TV can't show high-def pictures in 1080i, it can only do 720i! It's broken!" Meanwhile, crafters are saying "We'd really like to have a TV that's larger than 12" and gets more than 4 channels and doesn't constantly lose vertical control", and entertainers are saying "Can we get some color instead of this B&W piece of junk?" And smugglers? We're listening to radio programs of "The Shadow" and "The Abbot and Costello Comedy Hour" and hearing FDR's Fireside Chats. We don't even HAVE a damn TV, much less a broken one or a "broken" one by Jedi standards. I'd LOVE to be as "broken" as they are." - The Legendary Solo4114

The point is, that is crowd control In its current form its a much more effective means of controlling crowds and the flow of battle than a root-only solution is. Vs people one on one its less powerfull, vs groups its exponentially more usefull.

Why do people insist on calling this a nerf when it's a fix?


Did anyone actually read the description for Concussion Shot? It was never supposed to be only a root that didn't break on damage.


It's now working as intended. Sorry if you got used to it being broken.

Why do people insist calling it a nerf? We finally get one very very useful ability, to really stop adds in combat despite their distance. With a root you can only avoid melee mobs that are still charging towards you, with this fix you can avoid adds completely.

last time I got SF to make a fp deal I got ganked by some imps, and they got me cause CC shot was NOT working as intended. I am UBER happy now, after this fix. Would have saved my ass in that situation!

If they were going to nerf it anyway, they should change the name of it. I've had a dozen concussions, and they don't go away if you get hurt right after them.
