Im 3343 tk now will become master by next weekend. And i dont understand somethings i hope somebody might help me.
Its about the new CU.
1.When Im TKM and the CU comes out cant i use my skills as TKM do i have to do 4 boxes 2handed. I mean how does that work will all my tk boxes go away!?
2.Why are the devs sabotaging this game by taking away cool stuff from TK i dont understand it seems they dont want people to play this game...i just ordered wookie rage but im having regrets about it. Why is this happening!?

1 - You will have a change to "respec" this will give you the opotunity to pick up the two handed line from brawler.
2 - They aren't really taking things away, sure we will have less specials but we get inate armour and the best defensive mods. We also get some new weapons. Other proffesions are losing alot of specials too however specials are now cross class compatible so you can use specials from swordsman, fencer or pikeman with your fists.

Otherwise we'd be too versatile.
We'd be able to apply all states, attack all Pools (defeat the new HAM prospect), and have a Area Attack. Top it off with some great tanking abilities, and that strays away from the CU's goal of specialisation.

It's because the specials we had either (1) don't apply anymore (what's the point in a head hit or a combo when the only thing to attack is health), or (2) they would overpower us if we still had them (unarmed hit 3 is too strong for a profession that's supposed to be defensive), or (3) they fit better with another profession (like pikeman who has all the state attacks).
The devs are doing a lot of dumb things but taking away specials is something that is necessary. Every profession has had a change like this.

I'd get the 2handed line now if you don't have any other novice combat skills at 4 boxes, seeming they probably won't let entertainers or crafters skills count towards the respec and are talking about limits on trading novice combat skills only for novice combat skills and elite for elite it's alot safer then hoping they do that in a fair way.

Because it is easier to take away the ones that work then fix the ones they never did lol

hi
1..its taken sony(devs) over 2 years to decide the combat side of the game was not right. ?
2..so they do a CU to correct it, CU=combat update so why are they altering the hole game. ?
3..it should be called CTGU=changeing the game update.
4..leave it as it is, or as stated in another threed give us our own non-CU server.
5..i think sony (devs) are doing this for a different reason, you can fool some of us but not all of us.
NO CAPTAIN, I SEE NO SHIPS JUST HARDSHIPS

when SOE decided to make a combat update they had 2 choices
1st adjust the SWG combat system to a more balanced system
2nd take the EQ2 combat system and adjust it to SWG
its a pitty they choose a 3rd alternative: take the EQ2 combat system and adjust SWG to it

SOE isn't developing the CU..... Lucas Arts is.
The Rage of the Wookies expansion is a joint deevelopment project by SOE and Lucas Arts.

A master dancer without anyother professionsis combat level 1 so a jedi is going to be alot better then 1.5x. Then even if they do have a combat profession they will have less health, worse attack speed, worse attack accuracy, worse defence skills, less combat specials, and a lower max combat level .... all because all their skill points aren't spent on combat professions. So much for being able to mix entertainer or crafter with combat and be able to take part at a decent level.
