WTB posters that understand their class design

Sorc gets no significant damaging melee abilities and most of crowd control centers around keeping people out of melee, at higher level overload does more damage than the melee strikes do, not to mention mixing in inferior attacks is the opposite of what a dps class is yunno for......

actually its a lot simpler than this thread makes it out to be according to silence all of you who are complaining are wrong....welcome to mmo's .....things are working as intended and the players who are complaining are wrong....do you really want bioware to write pages and pages of bad PR material saying you people are wrong over and over again....

ya that is pretty much how i see it , unless bioware proves us wrong by upping the time table

its because they have obsessive compulsive dissorder , more specifically an order fixation it actually gives them anxiety watching people spell bad

i was full lightning at the time with adronikus nothing wrong with either of our gear, he whooped us several times , i switched to talos beat him easily * i bought the cheapest green gear for talos i could find with high cunning , hardly cost me a thing

melee = death for you keep guys away from you its not about your health and your hp its about keeping things out of melee range with your abilities pet and tactics. personally i went full lightning with andronikus till 50. Most of the socerer's i knew that did really well with khem val would heal him with heal over time spells from the corruption tree while dps'ing the mobs down.

great idea pleased to see that bioware can see that this type of option and flexibility is something gamers really want did i need this no, did i ask for this no, but am i happy they did this absolutely yes ....thank you many times over this is super helpful

personally i found solo'ing elites to be way way easier when i got xalek i have put enough purps on him that his health is around 15K at this point i should add he finishes fights with half health or better i keep him bubbled the whole fight i interupt big heals or really powerful attacks and his extra dps keeps the fights shorter, and best of all he takes my hand-me-downs so that's my take on him .....it makes elites far easier and having played Maurader to 31 and mercenary to 43 its nice to be able to solo elites as easy as those classes do now. Pre-Xalek i could solo elites and live just fine it just took some planning and was more of a challenge than the other dps classes i have played. I think people expecting him to be a great tank or to tank at the level of a player are expecting too much, but hey i am glad i have him

i stopped reading after you wanted to break the class OP

yep i recognized it quickly and yes it has been happening to me just like in the video. This doesn't build anyone's confidence that bioware has things under control is it getting me killed no, is it bugging a bunch of paying customers often ....yes, which is just not smart

some good stuff in their nothing earth shattering but good progress nice of them to put up a spoiler warning as well

complaining about maintenance is like voting for more bugs.......nuff said

*passes out tinfoil hats* i am so glad i understand math. For those of you trying to reason with all the um....math deniers , just remember they are part of the 20% that make the other 80% never wanna post or read video game forums

anyone who shows up to this and does not hammer bioware for not having individual server forums i have no use for and do not wish to hear from.......

yep still broken

ya i got three or four 'you already know that schematic' in a row once i have a hard time seeing that as working as intended, and i did not have all the blue recipes that the green unlocked yet, in fact i only had one which at the time was overkill and i was going for critical. So if things are working as intended that meant i hit overkill 3 or 4 times in a row since it was the only recipe i already knew that a green could teach me. Incidentally this happened to me on my character with biochem, i have gotten maybe one or 2 'i already knew this recipe' with my character with synthweaving the entire time it took me to reach 400 so this message is not equal to all crafts across the board i think something is not working correctly *and ya people are right this message is really a slap in the face, add insult to injury however you wanna phrase it , its like hey you are already loosing money doing the whole RE process, why not make it worse and just rub your nose in it a bit, because that last attempt you just made that lost you money hahah sucker.....you already know that recipe, you had absolutely no chance of producing anything valuable with that attempt.....but hey you lost money and thanks for playing...........what is this some cruel game show that a certain island nation is particularly fond of ? either make the you know that recipe much much more scarce or get rid of it.

ya honestly i think the creativity that went into crafting and the ideas they have are great. But then the other shoe drops and you find out just how much money most of these skills require you to burn just to get anywhere, not to mention the incentive to produce goods for other people is not there either or at least not like it should be. ya of course i could make a extra purple or two of the same type i produced for myself assuming i have the mats, but honestly why wouldn't i just sell raw mats, so right now if you look at the GTN ( i cannot comment on other servers so this is just how it is on mine) basically compared to most MMO's at this stage there is hardly anywhere near the amount of purchasable good equipment on the GTN, people craft for themselves and their guildies and alt's. But i have noticed how much crafting materials are on the GTN basically it shows a bunch of people are really not crafting they are just gathering to gouge the crafters who are going through massive amount of mats for the RE process. Is this really what bioware wants a whole bunch of people who are merely gouging those who do craft , because their current system is only working for a handful of crafting professions, mostly Biochem which i have on one of my three toons The people that say biochem is really the only way to go, they are right the only reason i picked other crafting skills is cause i didn't wanna have 3 high level toons with all the same profession. I get why biochem was causing pvp issues but seriously fix the other crafting skills, its a brilliant idea in concept what bioware has done with crafting, but right now with how viable most of the crafting is, or isn't more to the point, i really have to be hard on bioware in the crafting department they really dropped the ball on the implementation of a clever system. No one cares how innovative something could potentially be if it doesn't currently work or cost of having decent self made equipment is poverty

i dumped Armstech for cybertech and i have to say walking around with a bunch of purple armor + mods is a lot more valuable to my character than either crafting barrels for an orange gun (and then having to buy the rest of the upgrades), or trying to create a purple gun that is worth it for my level........well with things being the way they are i was out leveling what i was working on before it even got finished. So in short armstech trying to make a purple gun's all i was doing was getting started with trying to make a purple gun several levels higher than me so by the time it was finished i would be the right level for it........doesn't work.......you either have to be luckiest person alive with RE, or the slowest leveler alive to get usable weapons to your character. So what is the point......because just crafting blue weapons and barrels i can find something better or as good with just commendations anyway. Also all of these problems i listed above were still present even with higher level toons with same gathering skill providing extra mats. I do realize that many people are dissatisfied with all of the production of weapons and armor crafting skills ( for force user and non force user alike). But i have synthweaving on one of my other toons, and while it suffers from many of the same problems its still much better Armstech, which shows me how truly bad Armstech is , cause i am not all that happy with synthweaving either but at least its viable, at least i can make a bunch of purples for my toon, that i won't out level before its even RE'd to be purple. You know your bad when a cash sink like synthweaving looks better.......

great post finally someone who gets it , rather than another rant from an angry child, thank you

100% mandatory mmo feature they will loose subscriptions if they don't

100% mandatory mmo feature they will loose subscriptions if they don't for those than may wan't to spec for DPS for solo and healing for instances its mandatory... for those who want to spec for both.....PVE and PVP and don't wanna be average at both... its mandatory....those who appose this don't have any idea what they are talking about.

not in at launch does not = forgot it just means they decided those features were not important enough to remove other features for.....

well said......i have defended bioware on a huge amount of issues and this one they really really dropped the ball

ya the official response is never
