I dont think he is coming back.

Cap'n posted it a few weeks ago. They HAVE plans, but it will still be a while to get them implemented. What many people do not realize is that it takes a lot of time to change a class and to write new code. Most people come here and yell for an update now now now now, you get the idea.

According to our correspondent there are two people working on our skill tree. Give them time. But to be honest, an update on the report would be nice. All other classes got some Dev responses I believe.

I won't disagree with you that coding takes time, but that in no way excuses them from not communicating with us. Why can't they just tell us what they plan to do or not do for that matter. They have pissed away a great deal of good will among the squad leaders by ignoring them. In this case, the correspondent program has actually hurt more than it has helped, because it created expectations among players that SOE can't or won't fulfill.

Not to mention the fact that many of the other profrossions have got updates. Some have gotten lots, others just a few. I don't believe that something could have been done for this profession by now. I was willing to wait before but this is just getting rediculous. Like you guys said at least if they were talking to us, it would seem a bit better.

well, i think part of the problem is that the DEVs dont post much on profession forums mostly because if they post here then every other profession that has no clue what problems we are having will say "hey thats unfair the DEVs posted on SL and not us!!! i want my money back!!!" what they dont know is that we have NEVER had ANY response.

Ok we got a huge patch today, and just about every class got some love except SL's. I fact we even got a ^%$# nerf! "/boostmorale no longer considers pets".

Yay.

If you had ever used boost morale with pets in the group and divideda pet's wounds (which do not look like much, but a 10% wounded pet at 10k Ham equates to 1000 wounds) among a group, you'd know that this recent patch is not a nerf.

If you had known how to use the boost morale exploit properly (such as by removing/healling the pets which had wounds) you'd know that this was a nerf to the Squad Leader class.

Out of all my Squad Leader abilities, it was probably the only one I ever used or found any practical use out of.

There ain't fix for Squad Leaders... i've been master for 2 months, and i've come to realise it's a waste of time keeping it while it's a so broken profession. Was deceptioned on the last big patch when I saw they didn't move a finger to fix the profession, but now i'll just quit, since not only they don't fix it, but they nerf the boostmorale to useless (unless you have a master TKA grouped, and even so).

Once again, i guess they wan't us all to be BH's or Commandos...
