Community Q&A – April 27th 2012 Blog Discussion
GingerMagician replied to JovethGonzalez's topic in General Discussion
Id like to ask the devs how they remain in employment when every patch they produce makes the game worse.I have just logged in to todays patch and find that auction house search feature has been ruined and the AH is now bascailly unusable. I would love to have a job where I can **** up every day and never suffer any consequences or penalties and just carry on banking my salary regardless. Absolutely extraordinary. -
Fact is gunslinger is a terrible class and was a terrible class before 1.2 and then they nerfed it by reducing the endurance and cunning stats on bm gear. Since the patch i barely even log in my full geared slinger as the pvp is so boring and balance is even worse than before. BW have no idea how to balance classes and my advice just to give up gunslinger and play something more useful its a lot more fun in the end.

RELAX UPDATE 16.4.12 on warzone rewards etc issues.
GingerMagician replied to Lord_Karsk's topic in PvP
This daniel erikson guy must be a complete retard. People do not stop tyring when a warzone is going bad they simply leave it.No one is going to play a losing warzone for 15 mins get nothing out of it no matter who they are. This patch has made pvp worse in every possible way and I suggest the best thing Bioware can do with Mr Erikson is to show him the door pronto. In the words of very own lovable rogue Lord Sugar 'You're Fired' -
A dreadful patch.Already the complaints have started that warzone queues are taking too long on my server. Im amazed that anyone could think reducing rewards so drastically could have had any other result. Its blindingly obvious to anyone with an iq over 50 surely.

Seems to be a higher priority to pve stuff and making everything a total grindfest than making sure pvp is balanced and new warzones come out. Grind doesnt work in MMOs if the rewards for it are too low for players to consider working for it. Im playing since release and have very little credits.For the average casual player these unlocks are unaffordable and i suspect most people will quit the game long before they ever get enough credits to unlock them all.

Another Downtime tonight 13 April ***
GingerMagician replied to Strifegambit's topic in General Discussion
Well my experience of the patch was that I lost over 1200 warzone commendations as I had 650 merc comms which I bought at 3 wz coms for 1 merc and can now only trade them back at 1 for 1. Secondly I am a cybertech and made several speeders to sell on the AH as was well advertised before the patch that they would become tradeable.When I put them on the AH it took my money and kept them on the AH but no one could see them and there was nothing displayed in the mount catagory. Thirdly my endurance and cunning as a gunslinger with all buffs on me was reduced by around 40 points each with no menetion of this in any patch note and as a consequence my warzone damage was reduced about 15-20%. Fourthly I had 750 champion commendations and these being now useless I had to click 1500 times to buy and open small credit boxes to turn these in. Overall a complete disaster of a patch with so many easily avoidable mistakes and its no surprise to see a new 4 hour downtime now underway. -

For what exactly? Must have been you couldnt log in or some major problem for them to be that generous or else you are a BW stooge. -
Should have given 30 days to everyone subbed since release
GingerMagician replied to Loxone's topic in General Discussion
There is no way in a million years they will give 30 days.So far despite the considerable amount of downtime since release they have not given customers a single minute of free time. Its standard procedure in most MMO's to give some time in lieu of unplanned downtime but it seems BW dont play by the same rules as the rest of the MMO companies. -

GingerMagician replied to Strifegambit's topic in General Discussion
As a minium one free day needs to be added to all subscribed accounts for this unacceptable lack of service due to their own mistakes in patching. However as they have never given a single minute of free time before I doubt it will happen. Might be a case for some legal eagles to have a look at as it seems to me to be a clear breach of contract. -
Any possible way to make Gunslinger good in PVP?
GingerMagician replied to Octar_Botan's topic in Gunslinger / Sniper
Yes in ideal conditions the gunslinger is a great class I dont deny that. Trouble is how often do you get those conditions or circumstances? -

GingerMagician replied to Octar_Botan's topic in Gunslinger / Sniper
The thing with the gunslinger is yes you can do well in the damage tables get medals etc etc especially if go for the aoe specs. Howver the question I often ask myself is are we actually making any difference to the outcome of a warzone and the answer has often to be no. Lately Ive been in quite a few warzones where 2 or more pub gunslinger did more damage than the top dealing imp but we still lost those warzones very badly indeed. Doing aoe damage is all well and good but if you dont actually kill anyone them ur basically useless. A team of 8 gunslingers will never win a single warzone whereas 8 sages would roll any other group you could think of. -
Yeah but doesnt it last for like 2 seconds or something? I used to use it a lot at one time but I never noticing it making any difference so I would rather use those 2 seconds to cast something that actually does damage
