This is gonna suck... I can see it all now, hey bro u wanna go do some krayts? Naa thats boring plus you need a group of 20 to take 1 down.... So now everyone can spend 5 hours trying to put a group together where ur buffs last like an hour... Not a upgrade its a nerf /cry
/agree
this combat upgrade (nerf) is as they say where im from bollocks
ask yourself this question first, why are you hunting krayts in the first place?
for tissue to make a nice rifle or pearls of my jedi m8.but the biggest reason is cos last time me and my m8 tryed to get some akl bones he was camped by 6 peeps and 1 jedi ![]()
ask yourself this........... why not?

I think it's just better when you have to group...it's more realistic, well how possible is it that you can kill a krayt single-handed?
I mean, if you have friends, then you will surely find a group to go hunting, if not, then I'm sorry for you, cuz always soloing isn't fun.
i agree and as long as they give us new and interesting critters to kill that drop loot as good as we get now i dont have a problem not being able to solo a krayt. but any new content will get old and boring eventually. when it does it would really suck if all i can do is go kill creetles and pikets.

the one major thing i don't like about this is as swordsmen we are forced to pick up a branch that will be totally useless to us in combat while using 2handed weapons.. all ranged professsions have to pick up marksman ranged support.. but any bonuses and specials they get from that branch can be used for any ranged weapon.. any specials or bonuses we get from 1handed weapons branch can only be a benifit to us when we use a 1handed weapon. useless. classic case of devs trying to fix a broken system with a newer broken system.

when will you dingbats get it through your thick skulls.. whats fun for one person isnt exactly fun for everyone else.. there is nothing fun about being required to pick up a branch that will have no benifit what so ever to your profession.. there is nothing fun about being nerfed so the current content is harder instead of the devs adding more high end content. oohh it's harder.. IT'S STILL THE SAME CONTENT! as others have said good loot is nearly non exsistant for anything but high lvl mobs. so oh great we get to still solo 10k ham mobs.. for what? a cdef pistol? freggin berries? and 100 credits? oooo excuse me while my jump straight out of my shoes with excitment.

Obviously you don't speak for everyone....
I'm a leader in a guild with 150+ people, so it's not about having no friends,
but everyone wants to do different things at different times, people are on at different times, different time zones.
I think it's cool to log on, get buffed and head straight to the krayt graveyard or NS stronghold know that you stand a chance and don't have to wait for anyone
even when you are with a group, it's good to have some assurance that everyone isn't gonna die and being strong gives everyone a level of confidence, which HELPS groups.
I mean, who wants to follow a group leader into battle knowing everyone is gonna die anyway?
Who wants to play the game knowing their toonwill always be weak, no matter the template?
Grouping might be more realistic for noobs, but those days are far behind me...... when it's time to get the credits to survive in the outrageous economy it's every man for himself![]()
