Thread: To all the Whiners

I wish the whiners would just shut up. Damn, I don't usually get mad, but all this crying makes swordsmen look like little babies. Forget about your damned bleeds. We don't suck, we can still solo almost everything out there, and we were already bad at PvP, so we haven't lost anything there either.
Ugh, its a game. If you don't enjoy it, do something else.
no no we already didnt' suck at PvP. Our counerattacks are sick i never got hit very often or only offence was mind bleeds and mind attack for PvP now that is gone i have been master two hand since the begining not a holo proffession and when i do unlock i was going to go back but since the bleeds are gone heavy sword is nothing without it like i said cant' fight against 80% kinetic armor...and the hammers well we all know about them :/

How often have you won against a combat medic, commando, TKA, or a rifleman?
We were not a great PvP class. We could pull off a win on rare occasions if we got lucky, but we were never gifted in the PvP area like other classes were.

Leave the proffession....really. Those that was Swordsmen from the beginning are loyal to it. I bet u whiners are the ones that found this proffession from Holo grinding.....
To the loyal Swordsmen.....our class will be rare again which makes us a better class without all this n00b wanna be.

this is the dumbest statement that ihave heard. yes, i'm a loyal swordsman. i like theprofession. at first, i picked it up because i wanted a different damage type (blast), but after working my way up the skill trees, i found that i really liked the profession. does that mean i have to sit back and watch the devs destroy my profession? no. the same thing with my commando. back in the day, commandos were horrible. we complained, we petitioned, we screamed. what did we get? we got fixed. then, the devs added a melee damage modifyer to commandos. we did the same thing again. what happened? we got fixed. sitting there and taking it is no way to get things done. a squeaky oil needs a greasin'. i bet if the squad leaders were to raise their voices, they might be able to get their profession fixed as well. there is nothing wrong with having pride in your profession. in wanting it to work properly. in wanting it to be at least on par with other similar professions.
and you should be happy that there are so many swordsman. as TH stated in the pikeman 10 answers, the most populated professions get the most attention. more swordsman threatening to leave the game because of this results in more money lost to SOE. much more so than say the 10 pikemen who would do the same.
if you don't like hearing swordsman complain about the issues they have, on a board that is specific to harbor such discussions, then maybe you should leave the boards. do i expect you to do this? no, just like you shouldn't expect us to drop this profession.
The bleed was swordsmans most powerful tool in PVP. It was what allowed us to go toe to toe with the TK's and Fencers of SWG. You wouldnt believe how often I would take out a Master TK/Master Fencer/Master Brawler with my Master Doc/Master Swordsman combo and get tells afterwards like "How the hell did you do that!?!" Contrary to popular belief, before this nerf a Swordsman who knew how to work his advantages and play the fight into his hands could beat the flavor of the month classes. After this nerf, things get a little unbalanced against us. Before we had the bleed to tick away at people while we were dizzied/kd'ed. Now the ham cost of the bleed doesnt even justify the damage from the dot. You can say our power hammers are real powerful, but have you tried seeing how they fair against a TK or Fencer? Sure they do decent damage, but not nearly enough. Like it or not, Swordsman is now a broken profession. I would really like for them to fix our bleeds, or remove them and compensate us with something worthwhile.
Does this mean I am gonna quit swordsman for TK or Rifleman or whatever the 'in' class is now? Hell no! I like swordsman, and I want to stay swordsman. Fix us! Give us our bleeds back! Or something equally powerful.

hehe many many times on all of them classes double mind bleeds and mind attack every second

/cheer
Finally someone that agree's with me . After thinking for a bit after i unlocki probably will go back to two hand istill like the mind attacks but the armor on our server is really not the best route with the soon to be def nerfing. I was a master two hand and 4/1/1/4 tka just for hte dizzy kd and med and def.
So if I whine from time to time... ive got a right to. My class i based my character around is getting the short end of the stick...we all are.
BUT
im tough enough to stick with it... if they dont revamp us however... I think im mowing on, not class-wise....
Game-wise.
Im getting sick of half-ass over priced games that arn't more than betas. And the philosophy of "well just fix it later..who cares if they pay or not... some other idiot will sighn up after that guy quits.. so lets just skimp on content and charge em for it while they deal with our nearsidedness..."
IS THE REAL THING TO WHINE ABOUT... WHO CARES ABOUT THE NERF.. its the ethics behind it that bothers me.
