So it seems, I just don't get why this was changed. It makes no sense at all. I can see why other characters had some sort of weapon change to increase the range of weapons they can use. Most just seem done for no reason. I can see why Jorgan can now use sniper rifle and blaster rifle, No mention if he can still use assault cannon though. OK none of this is a big deal and really has no affect on the games just seems pointless all the same.

I'm kind of puzzled at the removal of Blaster Cannons from Aric Jorgan. He becomes more of an assault fighter during the story, it'd have made sense to simply add the option for Sniper Rifles without removing cannons IMHO. :o

 

Pierce would have been a perfect mirror to Aric Jorgan. He's a close quarters fighter, Black Ops and all that. A Heavy Blaster Cannon would have been awesome on him! :D

 

Also a bit unsure about the changes to Corso Riggs: Corso prefers to use guns because of his background, even though he can use rifles. He never mentions long range fighting experience, so no idea why does he get to use Sniper Rifles now. :confused:

 

Also, why does Yuun lose Techstaves proficiency? :rolleyes:

Yes, it is in the official patch notes, I got the link from the SWTOR Twitter, I haven't even looked at Dulfy Today.

 

http://www.swtor.com/patchnotes/10202015/game-update-4.0-knights-fallen-empire-early-access

 

Scroll to the bottom.

 

Of course, I wouldn't put it past Bioware to accidentally put out two different versions of the notes on the same day for the same patch...

It was edited out at some point after the initial posting, but i also saw the post about him only wielding one blaster. Guessing they removed it as it was incorrect, either way technically everyone is correct and they have screenshots to prove it, bioware omitted it ;)

So what's the point of getting Torchy back then?

 

Not surprised though. If what I read today is accurate companion uniqueness went the way of the dinosaurs. Just one more reason to bail.

 

Whats the point of Sniper flailing around a pistol in cutscenes? Or Commandos Cannon or VGs rifle? :p

Silly aesthetics are not exactly uncommon hehe

It looks like this is exactly what they did, they published them, tweeted it, and then changed it. That would also likely be why Dulfy's was wrong as well.

What does that have to do with anything?

 

Agent and trooper get pistols in cutscenes because it'd be ridiculous to menace a street rat with a giant *** assault cannon.

 

What does that have to do with companion weapons which are never used the same way?
