So by your logic they can keep improving BH, because they had something like that before, and leave all the other professions with nothing.

Yes I see your point, my bad, I guess it's ok then. sarcastic? cant tell sorry hard sometimes on internet





i think that they can improve something they already had of BH to make it more fun. if swordsman had 2 contents, one was to hunt pjedi, and one was to hunt non-challenging, low paying, and waste of time NPCs that dont even drop anything worth it... you would want the NPC part to be better, because you would want a choice in what to do outside hunting. and BH have ALWAYS had more choices in what to do in game than any other weapon profession, only because of the NPC/jedi hunting. weapon professions are most likely not going to get any profession specific content. swordsman are not going to get anything noone else can.

you need ta calm down. BH's can do two things, hunt jedi and hunt npcs. they fixed hunting jedis because that has had SO MANY BUGS forever. the devs looked at the npc system, thought it was lame and realized noone hunted npcs, so they revamped aka made better their content. if you would follow up you would know that they are dropping a lot less quailty items now. quit whining






Spoken Like a true BH. i retired from BH over a year ago, nice try though


Look I am not trying to nerf anyone, but if you are gonna give one profession more variety ONCE AGAIN, THIS IS NOT VARIETY. THIS IS IMPROVING THEIR CONTENT. IT IS LIKE IMPROVING THE DWB AND GEO CAVES, BUT WAIT, YOUVE PROBABLY NEVER BEEN THERE SINCE YOU ARE TOO NOOBISH TO KNOW WHAT YOU ARE TALKING ABOUT, then you need to give everyone else the same choices.since they could already hunt NPC's before this change, this is not giving them more choices. this is improving content, since half of their content was useless and not used.Not only can BH do any of the quest that swords or melee in general, can do, but also they have this whole other line of choices you mean like hunting NPCs and jedi? that is what they have been doing for 2 YEARS... NOTHING NEW, which they can get some of the best loot. you want the best loot, hunt NS, go to vette, go to kash, theres plently of places. heck even geo caves. there is a slight problem, with too much high end loot. however, much less high end loot has been dropping, so no worries. Everyone talks about how jedi are so numerous ya they are, i was recently grouped with 7 other jedi that werent hard to find. me and 7 other jedi. i doubt you were here a year+ ago, but if you were, it was a rare thing and an event for some people to find a jedi, but I see 10 time as many BH's most are respec/old fs grinders with 3:1 combat xp and now with the uber loot for BH's there is gonna be even more.please, go tothe BH forums and ask about the dropping rates of the high end loot.SWG need to make the game balanced so that people want to be more then just a BH or a jedi.you honestly dont think that do you? most people dont want to be BH, however MANY people want to be jedi. NOT BC OF HoW THEY ARE IN THIS GAME, but because it would be fun.







you seem to be wrong about a lot here. all the green = what you are wrong about. sorry try again

And I wasn'talking about respect with the swordsman itself I was talking about SWG's failure to recognize melee when thinking up new ideas for the game. did they add new things for rifles, carbines, or pistols? NO. just bh. you are just mad because you didnt get something as good as them, even though swordsman are some of the best in the game, and most meleers are part or all swordsmen. there is no melee/ranged specific content for the professions that are all weapon specific. BH are just that, people who hunt bounties, and they should be able to hunt all bounties, not just jedis. Swordsman is a great profession, and we deal good dmg, make that amazing damagebut most ranged you mean just rifleman deal the same amount of dmg if not higher then us, if you knew what to do, you would keep armor break on ALWAYS, so it doesnt matterOnly with armor break can we deal more dmg. but even then melee is being forgotten about,how? melee isnt forgotten about?give me 1 examlpe pst-cu of how its being forgotten about. do not use this BH example because BH are not the typical ranged, as they can use 3 weapons and 1 of their lines is none combat. How many Swordsman can take on a Ancient Krayt solo. none, but how many jedi can? none. and the only reason ranged can do it is because of a bug, called chain rooting. so bad point again. None that I know of, but I see ranged guys do it all the time. And No I am not asking for nerfs so be it if we can't solo a ancient krayt. THEY ARENT SUPPOSED TO BE SOLOED GET OVER IT. ONE OF THE POINTS OF THE CU WAS TO REDUCE THE INDIVIDUALS STRENGTH, BECAUSE THEY WERE TOO STRONG PRE-CU.I just think SWG need to plan something for melee guys as well. you really dont know what you are talking abuot. if you can find something that they did for rifles, carbs, and pistols that they didnt do for melee, then tell me. and dont say like root, because ranged has no AB, improved COB, plus they also have a defense penalty when using a ranged weap. for pvp, if you knew what you were doing you could beat ranged most of the time.

you MUST be a post-cu noob, cause if you were here pre-cu, you would know swordsman were the best people who could solo ancient krayts, better than rifleman.


But it doesn't matter if everyone is happy with BH's making millions off of exclusive loot, then I guess SWG did well in there configuation of the game. THAT WASNT THE POINT, THE POINT OF THE LOOT WAS TO IMPROVE HALF OF THE BH CONTENT. you really dont listen. and also, the leet loot is dropping a lot less now, and lots more useless loot or not worth a lot loot. the point of this was not to get BH rich, but to improve the NPC hunting. they either made a mistake and had too many drops the first days, or they are using a complex system, like this: leet loot will drop based on the % of NPC bosses killed per server. at the start, fewer BH did the missions, so the chance to get good loot was higher. now with more BH, the chance is less




you are jealous you arent making as much money as them.

I get a lot of respect. Especially after I hit someone for 1800+ damage post-armor reduction.
