Why do i have to take off my weapons just to live through a fight. Frankly im sick of it, that can't be as intended, for a class to have to switch on/off every single fight. A class that hits themselves harder than the things they fight. what fun is just hitting Attack and watching. quit ya ya ya. I dont want to quit im trying to bare with them, i like the idea of the class.I feel so ripped off most of the time i feel i have to play just to get my money worth i wasted on the Gold crap edition.

The fighting in general is not very fun, i was expectiong a whole lot more, or at least as good as the previous games online that have done well. The combat in the game is crap basically, hate to say.You would think it would be as good asEQ, but its like we are going in reverse here.I've been hearing alot latey , well this isnt a combat oriented game, shutup go play daoc. There is a war between two sides,It's combat oriented. Who would be here now if there was no fighting. I do like all the animations though, thats a nice addition, much betterthan just a fist orVK flying forward over and over.

There are alot of good things as well, but as life, those dont get harped on, great job on everything else but to me the most important thing is fun factor and having fun forme and my friendsis running out into the wild and killing something and this part of the game is more work than fun, kinda like tradeskills.Equip unequip equip unequip /follow. Still cant hit them though while they are chasing your teamso unequip lunge(only novice)equip, and it goes on and on you get the picture folks you are tka's. I know there is more to the game that combat and I enjoy it for a little while but then i gotta fight again, as do most folks, dont bother saying oh thats just youooooo. Im sure even the most lighthearted ejoy combat now and then.

You can't even jump over a pebble or onto a house porch. BOING? jump is a social move.? OMG!

You can't holster your guns/vk's. if its so social why is everyone running around with weapons readied. that isnt a very social thing, running aroundwaving that weapon sir.I dontbecause im a tka and ill hurt myslef.

Negative Negative Negative yeah I know. If i was having fun I would not be here. I know i could be having fun is why im still here.HOPE

I agree. I, too, dislike the fact that we are forced to use 'workarounds' in order to be viable. I am hoping that the fixes they implement will:

1) Remove vibro-knucklers altogether. (I think a betteralternative can/should be devised)

or, failing that ...

2) Be such that using special move while having VK's equipped will be equitable among the various professions. If they simply reduce HAM costs ('across the board', as they say), but continue to force us to use workarounds (unequipping VK's), I will still see the dev's changes as a compromising failure (at best).

maybe you don't need to use so many abilities in combat

"maybe you don't need to use so many abilities in combat"

I chose TK for it's style. I used to love watching the red streaks as I stunned, dizzyed and blinded my opponent. It was cool seeing the head butt! Especially when it actually connected! Now I pray I can get through a fight with minimum of movement.

I don't want workarounds... I WANT THE FUN BACK!

The Devs said they don't want us to spam moves or string specials...what does that leave?

double click, alt tab out, alt-tab in, double click the next, $15 dollars please!

It amazes me that people can say that this is not a combat game, it is freaking star wars for goodness sake's.

I mean all the movies and books, and games etc etc etc, they just stood around in the cantina talking a bitching about not getting tipped, or crafting in their house,,,,,, Yep never any combat in the SW universe.....

Well I do have a few things to make you guys and gals feel better.

1.) going diving in the grand caman islands soon

2.) got selected for WoW beta test :-)

3.) got selected for Lords of EQ beta :-)

Ah life is great!!!

with a good healer you can still do all of that. i was in a group the other day and we had a really good combat medic, i was able to spam styles with my vibro knucklers on. being a zabrak i regenerate my mind damage back very fast and was able to have full mind again by the time the next fight started. now, if you have a good doctor friend or someeone who sells buffs cheap you can get full buffed and eat some muon gold so you can spam styles without the need of a healer. My guild has a really good doctor with excelent experimentation and resources. Using her buffs i have around 3k HAM and around 1.4k-1.8k in all the secondary stats. The knucklers are meant to have high ham costs because they are damage amplifiers. we are supposed toattack without them when doing styles. If you are one of those who "doesnt get along with groups" or "likes to just solo" then sucks to be you. you will never be able to do the things others can do when they are grouped with other good players.
