I like to hear what my fellow Melee players think about CoB in large scale battles
My PC is up to date I ping 60 to server all the time.
But still in large scale PvP…getting CoB to fire is a pain
I often have to hit it up to 5 times to get it to stick.

PvE ore Duel CoB works fine because there is little Client/Server lag
I am on a quest to be able to use CoB when running.
I mean we melee are already having a hard time in PvP(not duel)
And having to stop every 30 sec and standing still from 5 to 10 sec to get CoB to work
While you have Lightsaber wilding Jedis FR after you and a gazillion Rifle/BH
Trying to root/snare/KD…… Just dose seem right
Either make CoB last way longer..ore lets us be able to use it when running..
Personaly I like to be abel to use it when running ..We tanks we suppose charge in a long side whit the jedis..

Care to explain
Why silly ??
And why compare CoB and the Riflemen’s ability to take cover ?

CoB is greatdefense but I found it troublesome to use. You have to stand still a few seconds and then try it, otherwise it's sure to 'clunk' and fail. This was so aggravating to me, I havespecced completely out of melee (I'll be back if they let you turn on CoB while moving, and add a *good* Swordsman weapon to the game)
Also I don't like how CoB is basically all of your tanking ability. I mean with CoB on, you are tough...without it, you are dead meat. I'd nerf CoB down to +300 defensebut add a +200 defense buff to powerboost.Soyoudon't have all your toughness built into one ability thatlasts 45 seconds.

because i have no problem with CoB,i pvp a lot and CoB can be the difference between life or death, the fact you can macro it is lame anyway, if we can just constantly run it 24/7 the move loses its effect, its fine the way it is IMO,

I agree that macro is lame. and I am not asking for it to be made to a Perm macro.
And as you know from you experience in large scale pvp ..macroing CoB is not really worth it
To many factor to throw the Macro out of sync.. Interrupts/lag
Ohhh and you have to stand perfectly still to make it work.
What I am asking, is that we either be able to use it when running ( it will still take up a combat round)
Ore that it will last longer.. 30 sec is simply not long enough..
And I cant really understand your anger against this change. other then you 1 of the young Jedi padowans that the CU realy hurts ..do to the group/Vis thing.
And therefore no other class deserve a fix
I mean you type : CoB can be the difference between life or death……..Exactly!!!!!!
So what would be so bad that Melee do not have to fight Server/client lag to get CoB to work
Ore that we only have to fight it every 2 min ?

nope, full temp jedi for months now and i pvp alot, i just dont see the need for a change, it works fine the way it is, as you said it works when you stand still, so when your rooted..... it helps more than you obviously realise,
i personally have no problem with it and i like it the way it is, i feel its a un-needed change because people just want to be more "uber"
