I might decide to consolidate my threads when this sub-forum goes beyond the dreaded one new thread per century rate.

Pretty slick snave. Lookin' good.

I'll make them as ideas or suggestions come to me.

Probably my best post ever. In my opinion.

Arsenal does well against single targets but comes into trouble when being focused. This is due to the fact that Arsenal kiting is based on controlling the target, and you can only effectively control one target at a time. Some tips for handling being focused: Use warzone adrenals whenever you use Energy Shield. ES + KO + adrenal does fairly well at keeping you alive, but your team needs to be putting out the numbers while you're being focused. Power Surge + Concussion Missile is an easy 8 second lockout, but you have to make sure the target doesn't have his/her CC break up. The only way to make sure this is the case is to use your stun first and hopefully force a break. Best used against a melee target because of the 10 meter range on the stun (wink wink Bioware). Requires a completely empty resolve bar to do.

Artemis, I know you get offended by anyone who disagrees with you, but come on. Ad hominems don't mix well with your veneer of intellectualism and constant hiding behind caveats of mere opinion.

And a 5th tier for adaptive gear!

Don't separate stats from gear, just make appearance tabs for all gear slots.

This suggestion doesn't kill gear crafting and therefore better than the OP's suggestion. Campaign on it.

For god's sakes, the Op makes a plea for people on the forums not act like ravaging dogs and all you people can do is try and pick apart his suicide story. You're all an embarrassment to the human race.

You're right, I don't care about appearance. Everything I need to create the look I want for my characters is already in game. The onus isn't on me to make up compromises for your idiotic suggestion. It's on you. My responsibility is to stand on my position that this change will kill gear crafting. If what you really want is to make changing mods cheaper and easier, then campaign for that. Don't destroy an important part of the game to do it. As for what you think my argument is, it is not what you state. My argument is "Don't kill gear crafting for the sake of people wanting to look pretty".

Regardless of whether or not Bioware have already committed to this change, it's still an idiotic one, and if there is any opposition to it then someone has to represent that opposition. It's fairly obvious that the reason they're considering this change is because the majority of Swtor players believe that the gear crafting skills are worthless because they don't bring anything to end-game. Sacrificing the current usefulness of these skills for levelers so that end-gamers can look pretty should be opposed. I mean for god's sakes, orange gear is already accomplishing what this change is meant to, but no, taking out mods is too expensive. Well cry me a river.

Hear hear.

I also didn't like when they revealed that Padme was carrying twins and then named them on-screen. You're not supposed to know that until the 6th episode.

Only two of the Sorcerer utility talents increase damage, and both of them are in the Skillful tier. Every single other utility talent is designed to cater to your own personal playstyle, and none of them increase your output. Balance wise it doesn't matter which of these talents you take. You think people are going to have a harder time with Disciplines than they will with the current system? Seriously? As I said before, there's nothing to work out, it's all done for you.

1. Crafted purples 2. Custom secondary stats 3. Crafted purples better than flashpoint drops 4. Once the mats are gathered your crew does all the work, leaving you free to do other things 5. Because of 4, plenty of money to be made

Speaking of which, losing the will to live is kinda selfish after having just given birth. Also being attacked by strange tentacled monsters and almost crushed to death, and then saved by an electronic device. Mr. Lucas has some strange hangups about sex.

So that's why she was so adamant about jumping into that garbage chute.

I predict I'll lose every warzone, that way I'm never disappointed.

You are correct. I like Swtor's crafting system.

What evidence?

Leaving aside the rest of your post, I have no concern for the opinions of the people on these forums. I'm concerned with opposing idiotic suggestions like this lest Bioware actually decides to implement them.

Do you ever put any thought into the leveling game? Or is it all end game for you?

You're forgetting every other player focusing the stunned player.

Qualifyer: I've played WoW, Rift and Wildstar. Each of which I wished had Swtor's crafting system.
