I have to say of all my alts, Sage, Shadow, and Gunslinger, the Commando is by far the most challenging to play efficiently. I could be doing it wrong, but I'm comparing my experience with my other alts. None of the other classes I play have the type of energy management that commandos have. It is just painful to play.
I wanted to say kudos for those of you that have stuck with the class! Congrats and hope you get some real love soon.
