First, stop playing the victim so much. Opposing opinions/wishes aren't "attacks" on "you" nor your kind. Secondly, i happen to like the SW RPG part of this game. However, what i don't like is how BioSword systematically ignores the MMO parts of this game so often. Things like: GSF, Crafting, PVP, Ops, FPs . ( aka group activities , as opposed to private solo digital "dates" ) Nothing wrong with catering to a certain section of the playerbase....unless you blatantly ignore EVERY other section repeatedly and then expect some of us loyal $ubscribers since 2011 beta to be happy with obvious lowest-common-denominator type gamer treadmeal ( mispelled pun intended ) hamsterwheel Seasons being offered as "content". Again, if this wasn't a billion-dollar IP STAR WARS game overseen by a supposed 5-star company ( EA) , then i wouldn't expect so much. But it is. So yeah, imo this game, which isn't even promoted anymore, deserves a bit more than anti-gravity "dinner" w/ Arcann and continual soulless CM re-skin$ x infinity + overpriced shiny dye kits. The day @EricMusco & @KeithKanneg do a Livestream talking about NEW expansions of GSF, Crafting, PVP, Ops, & FPs is the day i'll be impressed. Or heck, just those 2 ^ simply acknowledging GSF still exists and i'd probably get excited.

Where is GSF anything? Where is Crafting anything? *crickets* Just compare what ESO gets to what we get here in SWTOR. Really is such a shame tbqh. Welcome to SWTOR in the 2020- years. Truly baffling to me. Because they ( EA ) know the SW fan playerbase will continue to accept the status quo. BioSword is doing the best they can and obviously just wants to keep things as publicly positive as any rational/normal human employee would (and should) for their job $ecurity. Internally though, well, let's just say i'd be very interested in how they talk during private DEV chats.

uhh months?! Try YEARS. Literally since ohh i dunno 2020 or so, every post i ever AT to @KeithKanneg & @EricMusco i've critically but cordially asked them about GSF. And every single time they've ignored me. ( and others ) With one notable exception here: https://forums.swtor.com/topic/929314-pts-gsf-added-to-pvp-season-3-track/ ....which was of course then predictably REVERSED days later faster than a strafing Gunboat hiding LOS within space wreckage --> https://forums.swtor.com/topic/929314-pts-gsf-added-to-pvp-season-3-track/?do=findComment&comment=9757696 because of, you guessed it, them realizing how much GSF needs attention! ( irony or _____ ? ) The 1st word of 'Star Wars' has been severly lacking from this game since like 2017. Why would you think anything will change now? If EA actually cared about us pilots, they would've made 'SW:Squadrons' a legit SPACE expansion for SWTOR, with Player Crafting & Cartel Market combo'd for shipbuilding & cosmetic$ . FYI , forum Moderators have ZERO impact on game development. Their job, and input, is confined to the forums only.

Cool. Thanks for the legit intel Owen! Any idea why QA_Droid rarely makes such helpful acknowledgement type posts here on the actual SWTOR-centric forums? Also seems sorta odd how such an easy number-swap in one line of code remained idle/ignored for over 2 years since 7.0 went live. Only thing i can think of is: Some collating-of-existing-issues got lost in the shuffle once BioWare became Broadsword , due to X amount of team turnover or whatever.

uhh yeah that ^ is literally the exact same link i already provided/referenced earlier in my 1st reply above: https://forums.swtor.com/topic/933532-inconsistency-between-vanguard-plasmatech-and-pt-pyrotech/?do=findComment&comment=9798934 within paragraph # 3 . Would've been better to get more official verification from one of the gold 'DEV' Broadsword posters here on these forums ( as opposed to EA 'rep' from separate site ) , but thanks for trying OwenBrooks and i look forward to see it listed here: https://www.swtor.com/patchnotes after which i will gladly eat forum crow.

Yes this is what i was thinking as well , but didn't want to presume without first asking YOU those questions. THANKS for responding and being so chill about it too. It's refreshing to see. Great question and i frankly don't understand it myself. The worst part is, EA refuses to allow BioSword the re-implement *Tech Support* section here in the official SWTOR forums again like we used to have years ago. So now, because of EA, sooooo many players have to use/confuse this Bug Reports section for the game as their own personal/computer/ISP problems place and it's left to nice community members like @OwenBrooks & others to basically Tech troubleshoot ( for free ) in the wrong section cluttering up all the actual legit BUG Report threads here. Truly baffling, but whatever. Yeah again, for whatever reason, that sticky 'Known Issues' list is typically incomplete and rarely ever read by players anyway. ( present company excluded, since you were the nice exception) i'm still very curious to see how this turns out. ( whether or not it's actually a BUG or just working-as-intended 7.0 era ) Would be so helpful if DEVS could please reply here officially. Any hope for some clarity & insight on this issue, @JackieKo or @CommunityTeam or @JoeStramaglia or @BryantWood please....?

hi, it's been like that ^ since the 7.0 patch went LIVE ( maybe like 2 years ago i think ) , so i just had a few quick questions for you whenever you have time to reply: How do you know it's definitely a BUG and not something intended by BioSword Devs who coded 7.0 patch? -- i tried to research this a bit for you but was only able to find this DEV feedback thread from 2022 here--> https://forums.swtor.com/topic/924749-planned-balance-changes-for-711/ which doesn't seem to mention ( not by any players either ) anything regarding your specific issue. Relating to question #1 , are you just working under the assumption/theory that ALL faction opposed "mirror" Classes are supposed to be 100% exactly the same stats & skills ? -- i also tried researching this topic for you as well but only found this old thread from 2017--> https://forums.swtor.com/topic/842385-are-class-faction-mirrors-100-balanced-the-same/ Since you already reported this issue before ( in-game & otherwise ) , why do you think this apparent official SWTOR ( or EA ) game representative says here in your separate site report--> https://answers.ea.com/t5/Bug-Reports/Different-buff-duration-of-Plasmatech-and-Pyrotech-level-23/m-p/13378913/highlight/true#M424 that they are supposedly "tracking" the issue almost implying it's somehow a brand "new" thing being brought up? One would think, logically, that if this discrepency in seconds between miror Classes that you're posting about was indeed such an obvious "bug" , wouldn't @CommunityTeam and/or @QA_Droid already have long past mentioned it to SWTOR Devs before? ( seems like such an easy line of code to fix , just a number ) --- Perhaps that ^ EA rep is just a standard automated response? Maybe @OwenBrooks might know? Yeah sorry that ^ was MY fault actually, not yours. Unfortunately i made a mistake ( because of bad intel that i should've verified further ) and so your original post was *moved* for to allow more feedback & research on it , but somehow even though it was supposed to get moved into the proper: https://forums.swtor.com/forum/199-vanguard-powertech/ section , it somehow got moved someplace else accidentally. So please don't blame yourself nor blame any BioSword people. Was completely MY error , yes for a noble cause of gaining better intel/info , but still was my error.

i'm honestly confused about all of it tbqh i just don't understand some of their design decisions ---- BTW, can anyone else confirm/deny THIS--> https://forums.swtor.com/topic/933460-reputation-currency-still-not-dropping/ post recent patch?

Where? Can you re-post it here please? Because i'm on their official page now--> https://twitter.com/SWTOR ...and i can't seem to find it yet.

Currently it's sorta bugged--> https://forums.swtor.com/topic/933376-lockout-passing/ i'm gonna take a wild guess here that the Broadsword DEVS are currently discussing a better coded solution to hotfix ASAP.

i asked them ( Broadsword ) that exact question in the other duplicate thread here: https://forums.swtor.com/topic/932582-74-kessan-landing-saboteurloyalist-bug/?do=findComment&comment=9796888 ...but , for whatever reason, we never got a response. ./shrug

Obviously.

And yet the other poster above you says its somehow "fixed" for them today. What the heck is going on here?!?!

Obviously, i was only referring to HEALING abilities. So yeah, your earlier futile & empty argument about ESO being so "lacking depth" is moot, since SWTOR's combat has essentially the same most used amount. ( 10 + special circumstance ) Pretty sure you knew what i meant, but hey forum semantics 101 duh-dum-cha! From your silly little screenshot it would appear you're one of those healers who tries doing "damage" instead of just doing your job. ah yes, classic CLICKER.

uhh, the Patch doesn't go onto servers until tomorrow lol--> https://forums.swtor.com/topic/933292-game-update-74b-coming-the-week-of-january-22nd/?do=findComment&comment=9797489 So yeah....very odd. ( stealth fix perhaps? )
