And that is totaly beside the point you must realise. Aslong as there is a overpowered spec availible for us the chance of them buffing something else even unrelated is minimal, the ammount of classes that has 3 decent specs is quite minimal. Do we all wish derp spec #1 smashlolmonkies was the crap spec ? yes and i hope every patch it will happend to bring back skill to the class but i am also understanding that before it does actully come down to that vigilance wont be fixed (which is a sad sad thing)

My nights and obviously the other gentleman you responded to is obviously worth a couple of lowly basement dwelling serfs lives, It is or right no responsobility to grace the game with our radiance and they are blocking YOUR enjoyment of our prescence. I am not even sure i want to put people in jail for being useless script losers, its like validating them and letting them feel like proper hackers, a good beating and a 3 month hospital stay thereafter is much more suiting.

I cannot say how much i agree with the op. What i enjoy most about this game is the story and not only my own but my companions but the sad fact is that i have on all my chars been stuck using my healing companion more than anything and it is the only companion i maxed outside my first char (which has all rep maxed on all companions and all stories played). I have 10 char or so, two max lvls another 2 above 40 and a host of 10-30 ones. Out of all those chars i mainly spec dps but even trying to hybrid tank it for example or hybrid heal (specing full heal or full tank for lvling is litteraly like nerfing yourself) yet i cannot do anything with any companion other than healer, healer is also great for offtanking, healer is less reliant on gear than dps and even worse tank companions. I wish bw would have made the others worthy because i miss their story.

Can all the jug/guardian (and in some degree sent/maras) stop asking for buffs, vigilance/vengance wont get touched (unfortunatly) before the utter retardness of smash specs are nerfed into the abyss where it belong, bigger noskill braindead lolspec cannot be found in the game. Yes i do play a marauder and a guardian, yes i play it as vigilance and vengance and yes yes i want it buffed because they mediocer at best or atleast require far more than most spec out of the player to even be mediocer but i am also fully aware that before the 4 button faceroll uber aoe spec is crushed to useleness it wont happend. Aoe specs should always suck, the point of them is that hitting enough targets should make up for it not have aoe alpha strike damage.

traditionaly ? what are you smoking ? pvp gear is a new concept to start with and from the day it came it always was except for some pieces never considered BiS for anything other than pvp (even without the pvp stat addition) BM gear having equal stats+expertise is a change that will ruin the game for many, i know i wont pay a cent more if solo quing half asleep nublets who think just adding more time to the venture should earn them the best gear (aka bm gear now that its so uber easy to reach bm) yet i still have to raid to get worse gear ? seriously. Worst change in this game, if rakata does not have a higher stat budget or that expertise is withdrawn from the stat budget the only sane way of gearing will be pvp, which is easier and can be done solo....way to listen to all the pvpers who are leaving for gw2 anyway and pissing the rest of us off.

we cant because its 7:30 in the evening and its jet black out there. now what ?

so you are more worried about whatever frakking f2p player you can drag in over the weekend than your paying customers ? are you fricking serious ? notice here: WE DONT GIVE A RATS BUNGHOLE ABOUT THE FREE PASS WEEKEND, only you and your ea overlords in accounting does. we care about playing the game during our fricking peek playing hours, if you want to patch do it on regular off hours and not 2 fricking days in a row. stop thanking me for understanding because while i am willing to eat emergency maintainance for serious bugs etc doing it for your useless marketing campain aint part of the plan sport.

its hard to break the habbit but i heard you can go blind from it ?

i doubt you have ever been in a late alpha or early beta if you think this is what its like. Anyone with any clue can see your bs from a mile away.

ppl less panties in a twist. emergency maintainance at bad hours like this is ALWAYS due to an exploit/bug/direct issue that needs asap changing. Its one night and yes it breaks my raid schedual to but we can all take one night from hm/nm farming ops to let them fix something they obviously think is this serious, the other way is to let the bug be and then ppl here would be crying about that.

two answers I dont run fps because pre-50: -took to long to find a group for them and you leveled past most of them quicker -to many was not vital to the story line (like taral/maelstrom) -the rewards are simply not intresting enough and will be even less so with 1.2 and crittable craft oranges. -low drop rate, aka the risk/time invested vs reward is loooow How to fix: better drops, more drops, more story. post 50 -The loot is plain garbage both on normal and hard mode. -The instances are so unrewarding and in a time vs effort on hard mode they are actually gonna set your character progress back versus doing ANYTHING else activly in the game. -Its far easier doing dailys/gtn and/or craft than doing normal/hard modes, they are all in all already dated once you hit 50. (you need a master level that offers rakata tokens and is significantly harder and require that lvl gear) -The eq system is out of whack, the initial gear and the requirements for the first ops or hardmodes is so low that anyone with any sense simply gets full centurion gear the second they hit 50. The fact is that centurion/champion is so good you dont need to replace it untill rakata, basicly pve wise you bunnyleap past both tier 1 and 2, the ease of getting pvp gear as you can get it during the whole lvling vs the pve gear is absolutly staggering. -Token rewards are borderline useless, the ammount of tokens/commendations you need to get 1 item even for fricking tionese is absurd especially comparing to the ease of getting pvp eq. solution: cut the prizes of token gear by 60% atleast, 80% for tionese, make hard mode drop columni tokens not tionese, uppgrade the loot aka normal mode 124-126 and hm 134-36.

so basicly nerf a class based on that 4 ppl combined their aoe attacks ? nerf force quake, nerf mortar volley nerf dfa etc etc etc etc Any 4 big aoes piled ontop of eachother will do the exact same effect an in actuality slam prolly is harder to build up due to the backloaded nature of their burst dps.

im failing to see how so many of you missunderstand the difference between free beta/random testing and a PAID position albeit a temporary one. When you are paid its work not just your subjective opinion and thus its more handy for bw to deal with it close. I for one think the step back to paying ppl to lvl check/qc is a step in a waaaaay better direction and a step no other mmo has taken. The last 10 years with the introduction of the internet en masse we seen almost every company release half finished products even in singel player games as they always been able to patch it where before we where seeing releases of finished and quality tested games. Relying on free testers is not only bad but also in most cases unfortunatly hurtfull to the game and a step back to paying people to do a job is a pretty vital part of the industry.

both actually. And quite a large % was affect or managed to get a large bulk of their point during whatever point they had the easy part. Not sure what server you play but it must be something spectacular. To define illum as anything but a zerg is to call warhammer rvr anything but a useless lolcopter zerg to, even today without the spawn camping its zerg zerg zerg and the sides that does 90% of it on all servers is sith *shrug* I still dont however see why the concept is foreign to anyone, new eq balance coming so prior eq made easier to get, we will see the same in pve and no, BM does not mean anything other than time. Rating, its ALL about the rating.

everyone against this is not a healer, the fact the healer takes more skill, more awareness and more patiance than any other char in swtor regardless of what healer it is seems to be lost here and the marking just simplifies an already retardedly easy job of dps players who in reality need to be forced to the same problems healers have. That said i dont want marking changed.
