Kuradd Posted April 10, 2013 Share Posted April 10, 2013 After reading through the replies and looking at the stats, I don't agree that this is viable, but damn do I wish I didn't have to use that stupid assault cannon and instead just use a rifle. Despite that, I'm going to try this as I level my commando as I didn't even think it was an option. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jedip_enguin Posted April 10, 2013 Share Posted April 10, 2013 Hardly compelling, but then again I rolled a Commando specifically because of the Assault cannon, so what would I know. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Capt_Beers Posted April 10, 2013 Share Posted April 10, 2013 Who brought my old thread back from the dead? Don't you know necromancy is frowned upon?!! So... Are you still using a rifle? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wishihadaname Posted April 11, 2013 Author Share Posted April 11, 2013 Yes I am. I still do not feel any desire to compensate for anything Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ArchangelLBC Posted April 11, 2013 Share Posted April 11, 2013 Long as you aren't doing progression raiding as a DPS I still don't care. Still don't agree with the use of the word "viable" though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
respwn Posted April 12, 2013 Share Posted April 12, 2013 Well I lose 2 abilities ... and hail of bolts, which is expensive and doesn't do anything that you can't do with the new triple fired explosive rounds for cheaper and while moving. What am I missing? New triple fired explosive round? Hit ER three times and that's 75 ammo. Explosive Round: Ammo = 25 Deals 1050 damage to a single target and 141-148 to up to 3 targets around you. How the hell is that even come close to HoB Ammo = 33 Deals 2574-3150 damage to up to 5 targets. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

spectreclees Posted April 15, 2013 Share Posted April 15, 2013 (edited) I don't like the Autocannon either. But I love the class. It's why I have it at level 50 and plan to probably never level it past that. I wanted a ranged healer that uses blasters. Sadly, this class isn't really in the game. (For Pubs) The Autocannon is technically a blaster. I just think hauling around that huge cannon and trying to heal or do anything is so ineffective and looks ridiculous.

Khevar Posted April 16, 2013 Share Posted April 16, 2013 .... I just think hauling around that huge cannon and trying to heal or do anything is so ineffective and looks ridiculous. To each his own. When I watched this video (watch 2:00-2:15): http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=109rdJhGUjM I immediately wanted to make a Commando. And despite having 9 level 50s my Commando is still my favorite.

Fair enough. I like the way it looks in cinematics and for ideal situations. I just wish I had an option to use a rifle =P It seems fair as Jedi can use swords and sabers and we can only use cannons, unless we are Medic spec.
