Forcing Squad leaders to be Group leaders is rediculous.
Squald Leaders should do just that... LEAD SQUADS!!
I despise the idea of having more then one SL in a group at any one time and both being able to buff the group. We will become what docs were Pre-CU, buff bots.
I am all for making a SL lead a group for the buffs to work, mabey even allowing 2 buffs at a time if this is what the devs intended for more then one in a group. I saw that our passive buffs were gone, I was wondering wth happended, have that group terrain neg was a huge bonus for my squad since more often that not, they didnt have any scout.
Lets hope devs work with us on this and not make us a cookiee cutter profession.
You people are crazy.
The responsibilities of Group leaders are just b*tch work.
The abilities of the new SL's are where it is at for combat.
Forcing the SL to be the GL was a major pain in the ass when trying to coordinate PvP squads.

Then your PvP people were unorganized, I have been a SL for a long time in this game, and each and every PvP event/fight I have been in people knew who I was and I was given lead right off the back. I have many other SLs on my server that never had this problem.
If you dont want to be the Leader of the Squad, drop the profession.
Let your pride bind your options. I'm not going to stop someone beating themselves up. I might just grab a beer here and watch ya.

Are you even a SL?
Of course we'll accept you back, just drop your donation in alcohol form over in the SL officer's club.

On that note, after the Combat Upgrade, I was really disappointed with the Devs' attitude towards Squad Leader, and dropped it for (I'm ashamed to say) respec BH. Will you have me back?

But on a more sour note. Does anyone else wish they'd lock anyone new from joining our profession?
It just feels not fair that people can just join the prof and grind it now that it's gonna be good, which will leave us SL's who've waited years for this and patiently stood by the profession through al the brokenness in the dust of the mad SL rush,b being forced to answer all the newbie SL questions.
/sigh
I don't mind the love,but I do hate that we'll end up being the new profession that everyone rushes to(like BH's during the respec period,being mobbed by newbie m-bh's,or in our case m-sl's, with questions that anyone with the Master Title should know).

my only observation is; Pistols is too easy of a way to gain experience with ( course helps to have a good pistol). Now that i got the hang of sys and the few comands I can use (mostly ralley and Steady aim). This has been a good change over for me and alot of fun. I think only thing I am concerned about the patch is the fact we don't needto be leader to do abilities. To me that was kind of the core of what the Squad Leader was.
My guild can't wait cause then we'll be knockin on Faction bases door (mostly PvE group).
Only challange I have is balancing the cl people I invite in my group at the grinding grounds on Farstar. I tend to allow just about anyone into the group, low to high, as long as they want tohunt. Some players are fussy about it.
If you people seriously confuse someone with the Group leader spot as the actual leader of a group, I have quite a lot of pity for you.
In many PvP groups, the group leader position is filled by someone willing to do the b*tch work of adding new people.
The person who actually runs PvP ops is the one in charge. TKVM.

You want buffs, go to the Doc forum.

Perhaps the doctors aren't jerks.
Perhaps the doctors dont have someone telling them what they should be by someone who isnt a Doc.
WTH is your problem? I have a differing opinion, and you can't tolerate it?
Grow up.
