Squad Leader Archive
Thread: I feel so sorry for you guys....
My alt pathos is a master commando/master squad leader/novice combat medic and I must say it was like christmas loggingin yesterday. However, after I got a hang of how my 2 revamped professioned worked, I came to a few conclusions:
1. Congrats to SL, profession was well over due for a revamp, but these new abilities have turned our profession into something other than SL, maybe Group Coach is more fitting since it suggest more than one per group and how we now server as a buffing bot. I for one am not overly joyed with my SL revamp, I no longer feel like a group leader. But this is only a one day analysis, I will reserve judgement until they do their post-patch nerf.
2. Commando revamp was well over due too, since CU we have been pathetic unless we have been part of a group doing activites. The new specials and updates to our abilities didn't go overboard and put them in the same boat as SL. I would say the commando revamp was a very nice update and well within the parameters of what that profession should be.
Wow.....
Reading this post and those in this forum makes me want to dust off my MSL that I havnt played in....gosh...like 8 months?
I still have my token respec on him too. If I recall correct he is also Master Carbineer and Pistoleer 0-2-0-0. Should I keep this or take something else? I like a mix of PVP and PVE.....well maybe 60-40 PVP ![]()

2. Have you tried your commando specials out? It is no better than Overcharge shot. In fact it does LESS damage than that. The commando specials are not for a hybrid nor elite prof. the damage multipliers are crup.
What I have enjoyed about the commando revamp, sorry for turning this post into a issue about it, for the additional splash damage and the fact I have some options for specials now. Over powered shot was it till this patch. As I stated though this are initial results which I look forward to testing more tonight. However, without collecting the data, I did seem to be doing much more damage.

Now the thing to watch out for is the MBH/MRM/SL. The BH who will KD, then dizzy so you cant get up, applies called shot, followed by sniper. Talk about hitting a guy while he is down. Had a guild member do that to me. Well, just KD followed by dizzy. The just proceeded to stand over me and fire into my helpless body.
KD/Dizzy should not keep you down anymore....
And right now, the only way I see to counter the BH/RM combo is to run at them as soon as you see them, sniper shot has a 20-25m min range on it.
Well, the KD/Dizzy happened last night so unless it was in the hotfix today. . . I hope you are right, that was quite annoying. "Cant get up because you are dizzy" "Cant clear dizzy because you are KD." "DOH!!!"

How about the line " You can't KD recovery because you are Knocked down" WTH is that?
