Its not only the downer - its the semi-perm fubar'ing of stats until logging - coming out of the cloning chamber with negative stats is just p!ss-poor programming.





SWG is a lot like the Nicotrol System.

With each patch, you're that much closer to quitting.

I think TKM should make it Buff more and buff longer than 10 min, like make it 30 min or something


and buff each 1k

Umm.. ..it's called Power Boost, not Power Buff. It's not meant as something you put on yourself while in an outpost just before you go out to do missions. It's not meant to work the same as Doctor buffs.


The best use for Power Boost is to meditate and boost yourself"immediately" before engaging a tough opponent(s) to ensure success during that particular encounter.





Truisms are true, hold on to that! The solid world exists, its laws do not change. Stones are hard, water is wet, objects unsupported fall towards the earth's centre.

If that is granted, all else follows.

I almost like the fact that powerboost can incap you. It adds a little risk, which is neat and it doesn't seem an unfair tradeoff since it makes a pretty big difference, and we can put it right back on when it wears off. You just have to keep an eye on it. =)

i agree all my secondary stats + mind are maxed, so all i need to do is PB, 1200 health/action and 1400 mind, with maxed out secondaries

then dont use it if you dont like it.


but since it is there you may as well use it and dont complain - no other profession has it (unless you count doctor's buffs whichare not the same)

Did the thought ever occur to you that you might not be able to solo 6 dark troopers? If you don't like the negative effects, you need to deal with not having the positive effects then.

RIght lets all focus on what we can't do that will be a great game.


Hey lets see if i can kill these guys over no don't do that you'll never make it... ya your right lets send the pet


BTW yes i can solo six dark troopers about 85% of the time at least useing Muron gold, fisk surprise and power boost i get my mind to 3k and the other two bars to 2k.


It is just frustrating when the de buffing inc's you if this is intended thats fine let us know but up until this month thats not how buffs worked
