This guy knows whats up.

Ill copy paste what i posted on a commando thread: Bodyguard is not completly broken, it doesnt need new abilities or anything, just a few fixes on the existing ones. - Kolto Shell is horrible as it is right now, perhaps having it increase the armor on whoever its currently on would help, or make it so you can put it on more than 1 person at a time (like 3 or more). Heck, make it heal more and it would be something. This ability needs love, thats a fact. - One of the biggest issues is ammo management, so maybe making emergency scan restore ammo/vent heat like the 36 point ability for tank powertechs would help a bit. - I do not understand why Kolto Missile has a 4 target limitation. Make the ability Kolto Pods (so only healers get this) increase the targets for the initial hit of the heal (up to 8 targets). I believe these 3 changes would improve merc healing a bit, enough to compete with the other 2.

I feel like you guys are not giving combat medic the attention it needs. Yes, Assault spec is not viable at the moment, but at least we have 1 other dps spec that works somewhat. So i think our priority should be around our healing spec being fixed, then we can worry about Assault spec. Combat Medic is not completly broken, it doesnt need new abilities or anything, just a few fixes on the existing ones. - Trauma Probe is horrible as it is right now, perhaps having it increase the armor on whoever its currently on would help, or make it so you can put it on more than 1 person at a time (like 3 or more). Heck, make it heal more and it would be something. This ability needs love, thats a fact. - One of the biggest issues is ammo management, so maybe making bacta infusion restore ammo/vent heat like the 36 point ability for tank vanguards would help a bit. - I do not understand why Kolto Bomb has a 4 target limitation. Make the ability Kolto Pods (so only healers get this) increase the targets for the initial hit of the heal (up to 8 targets). I believe these 3 changes would improve commando healing a bit, enough to compete with the other 2. So perhaps, making questions regarding these issues would be beneficial to our class. Just my 2 cents.

I personally never went back to tactics cell after i tried with Ion, the survivability is too damn great to pass up (plus guard). That being said, the ammo management requires more hammershots than usual, which some players dont like. The speed loss isnt even noticeable. No shield.

Tactics on Ion Cell. 100k prot on taunts only is good, you should be happy with it.

2k protection? How is that even possible? http://oi39.tinypic.com/r7syt3.jpg http://oi44.tinypic.com/dr7dvr.jpg http://oi39.tinypic.com/fnsqq1.jpg l2p

This.

Like it was already mentioned here, theres a proc where you double cast for 30% the dmg of the original TK wave. As for the TK itself, you can double cast it if your instant proc is almost gone and you use Turbulance+TK wave, you will get the instant proc again and be able to cast TK Wave for the second time. Nothing to see here, move along.

He meant the Commando's relic, the one that procs a tiny dmg, that was triggered by his electro net (that relic proc dmg interrupts caps). Which is likely to be the case, since you yourself said it got interrupted 3 seconds in, electro net would have ticked many times in those 3 seconds.

Yup, same here.

New record for Most Killing Blows in a warzone, record holder is now Xekshek, the terrible. http://oi50.tinypic.com/24ornrd.jpg

Hello guys, me and 3 friends are grouping up and doing regular warzones as 4 dps scoundrel, come check us out and laugh as we stunlock people into unsubbing. http://pt-br.twitch.tv/xekshek Note: we are all healers, with healer gear, just having a good time.

Sorcs/sages get the hp sap for resource because they dont have any other means of obtaining more force. Like the cooldown agents/mercs have that instantly gives you more resource. *flies away* If its bothering you that much, just heal them as they sap their own hp, that will make them mad.

How about reducing adrenaline rush to like 30-40 seconds cooldown, and giving the commando/merc a 30% speed boost for the duration?

Yes, you are the only one. You are the chosen one. It is your destiny.

Ill just tell you what i do, if thats ok. Run this spec: http://www.torhead.com/skill-calc#201Zfc0MoMZfrcRsMkMc.2 affliction > recklessness > death field > shock > force lightning untill madness procs > crushing darkness Thats your initial rotation, after that use death field whenever its off cooldown, force lightning as filler, crushing darkness whenever madness procs, reaply affliction when necessary, use lightning strike with madness proc if crushing darkness is on cooldown, shock for little burts.

Well yes that is true, but what i meant was being able to complete dailies/weeklies from those new medals alone like you suggested. The big rewards (coms) would prove too tempting for people to work as a team. Just my 2 cents.

Those are excelent ideas, but somewhat very flawed if you think about it objectively. You see, if these new medals were part of dailies/weeklies you would have people completly ignoring the objectives and ultimately losing the game for your entire team (i.e. commandos running the ball to get the medals, knowing they are the worst class to do so, thus dying and losing the match, among other silly scenarios.) What im saying is, if you reward players for doing specific stuff that their class was definitely not meant to do, it would encourage sellfish behaviour and ruin many peoples days. I'm all for those additional end stats, but rewarding them? No thanks.

Seriously, i do not think they play this game at all. They should have just reduced the resolve gain from stockstrike instead... As for additional cc, giving sticky grenade a slow effect on everyone it hits would have been better and made more sense. Now commandos lost their biggest utility in huttball (knocking someone off the catwalk every 9 seconds), lost our ability to interrupt masterstrikes and lightning strikes from assassins/shadows. gg Bioware, looks like my valor 90 commando will finally retire. Apparently nerfing the worst class in the game in every update sounded like a good idea.
