There are quite a few master squad leaders on ahazi, but I rarely see them aside from the huge pvp battles. I'm starting to see less and less commandos in my groups these days, along with some other professions. Sometimes it feels like us ghetto professions are slowly being dumbed down to walking items. Squadleaders are like BE clothing, commandos are like looted weapons, rangers...if I see any are like harvest droids, and so on.


Still, when I Rally up, all the bugs, lag, and other problems just dont matter to me because its time for battle. They can mess with our professions but we always use what we have to the fullest. That's why us crazy squad leaders use Retreat to move forward instead of actualy retreating, and when I move forward, I'd much rather have commandos, rangers, and anyone els who plays for fun and the excitement of battle then any one week wonder templates.

That is how it used to be. but how it is now is different. You see a flamer, you aim for that person pretty much. Commando had the glory days, but then we got the worst nerfs. I honestly think it is worse to have the powers of a god, then have them taken away, then to never have them at all. It's more soul-crushing. I never see more then 1 other commando in a day.





I'm pretty sure you could count the number of Master SLs on Radiant on one hand. 3 of them are Rebel...2 are Imperial. Thats all I have seen in months.

Edit - for misspellings. :/

3 of em are rebel? I thought we only had 2.. Who's the new guy?

The chic I met in the Village the other day got a good laugh when I ran up to her and starting shouting "I'M NOT ALONE ANYMORE! BEAR MY CHILDREN, QUICK, BEFORE ONE OF US DIES!" .. Ok, not really.. but we were both surprised to see each other.




Ohhh, wait..there are 6. I forgot about a wookiee Imperial. Imagine my shock when I group up for PVP and asked for lead only to be told that he was a MSL as well. The jedi that responded that he was a MLS as well was classic.


Yeah, the other Rebel was one I ran across on Dantooine one day at the MO a month or so back. I assume the female rebel was Alahna Stargazer? or are their 7 of us..... /ponder







That is so classic... that's why I've started spelling it out MSquadLeader, cause so manyjust don't get MSL anymore.


I know a handful of Commandos on Kettemoor, more then a few I've wanted to shoot for not knowing how to control their AoE without being AoAggro. I've got one friend who was a pure melee stacker, picked up MCommando post CU because he got sick of being rooted in PvP, he's real good with manuvering to hit minimal targets with his flamer and is getting good at switching up his weapons at range. I know quite a few SLs too, quite a few are Masters too. And in a guild of less then a dozen active members, we have 2 SLs now: I have an apprentice! Course, he's just after Volley Fire and a few mods, but still!

Yeah! By now i even learned to love the big agro of volley fire... allows me to go for the tanking role when having lower level players along. (Though, sometimes also embarassing, having Jedi in team and the MSL/MCarb is tanking... *grin* )

Just to brag about it

I have another MSL in my guild, know one in a allied guild and another one who wants to join my guild.

Regarding the rest. You can have all the beer. Just leave me the brandy, cigars and girls.

I think a lot of people got a little confused Raydon about the post. I think you should've been a little more clear as to what you were looking for. The way it sounded to me with my very first post is that you wanted an UBER prof. I have tried keeping my opinions in check and thus far I have succeded. I commended you on your time and effort put into in. Ideas are always welcomed anywhere, just make sure that you state (in caps if need be) what you're looking for. It would cause a lot less flaming and what not. But yes, we here in the SL forums do things differently than every other forum. But that's everywhere. Each group has their own ways. So just be careful what you say and do and you'll be fine. No belittling here mind you, just a helpful reminder. Good luck in whatever you do.

Relax man. Don't get so worked up about it...it's cool. Just chill. I'm not flaming you or anything. Just have a beer and a stogie and sit back and talk to the girls....
