Onomas Posted December 30, 2011 Share Posted December 30, 2011 lol he quit cause they nerfed slicing that is a riot people are such babies Actualy its the people that cried about slicing that are the babies Instead of picking up slicing and making mad profits also, they had to find something to whine about. Logical? Id think most people wanted to make mad money, but rather cry here and on twitter about slicing. Doesnt make much sense with so many other issues and lack of features in this game. All they could do is cry about slicing? LOL Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pansophist Posted December 30, 2011 Share Posted December 30, 2011 lol he quit cause they nerfed slicing that is a riot people are such babies You missed the point entirely. They made a rash decision in response to a public relations mess with players complaining about a skill a week after release. These players weren't even 50 yet, the economy was nowhere near stable, but the first thing they did was nerf it. Then, you have threads with 200k+ views, but not one response to the issue. Not one. They even did an AMA on Reddit, where the question was asked REPEATEDLY, and still it was ignored. I dislike being treated like that. What exactly do you think will happen everytime a group of people start complaining? Oh no, snipers are doing too much damage in bg's *nerf*. UWT is making too much money *nerf*. Instead of actually FIXING issues, the response will be to knee-jerk react and nerf it. Until I see that changed, I cancelled also. I will re-sub once their reactions have been addressed. The nerf itself is not the issue. How they are handling the situation is the issue. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Muanthuun Posted December 30, 2011 Share Posted December 30, 2011 Edit: I've gone ahead and cancelled my subscription, stating my unhappiness with the slicing nerf. Companies only care about money, so they will only care if I stop giving it to them. You should do the same if you are unhappy with the nerf. If they want to keep touting their 1-2 million player base, they better start treating their players better before everyone's month of free game time is over. I'm level 400 slicing, and I've been sending out 3 companions for the past 5 hours on slicing missions, hand selecting the best rate of return missions I've found for lockboxes. I've made a total of 10,000 credits from the endeavor. What's the point? I can turn in two quests for that kind of return, or grind mobs and sell 10 minutes worth of grey items to get the same amount. I'm not bashing here, just posting cold hard facts from personal work and experience. My conclusion is that Slicing was nerfed too much, regardless of whether you think it should have been nerfed at all. Worst of all, I was told to choose slicing if I don't want to craft items. Guess I'm forced to craft now. I'll be switching to a new profession soon, because slicing isn't doing anything for me. Slicing was broken. It should not reward more then other gathering professions.

bboudreaux Posted December 30, 2011 Share Posted December 30, 2011 You should be happy you made 10k credits .. you should try sending out 3 companions for 5 hours in any other gathering professions .. i would have been happy just to lose only 10k credits LOL Slicing nerf was a good thing .. it's more in line of where it should have been from the beginning.

Onomas Posted December 30, 2011 Share Posted December 30, 2011 It was broken...how do you think the gold farmers who are already in the game got their "mad profits"? Obviously it wasnt broken it was over powered A small nerf would ahve been good and tested it a little and adjust it later would have been a wise choice. Hitting it with the 70% nerf bat broke it. Just saying. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ryancwn Posted December 30, 2011 Share Posted December 30, 2011 Slicing was broken. It should not reward more then other gathering professions. You are basing your opinion when the market is not mature. Are you going to tell them to buff slicing when gathering skills are making millions of money by selling mats alone once the market is mature and inflation come due to lots of lv 50 raking in tons of money by doing dailies, questing etc? Give me a *********** break. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Onomas Posted December 30, 2011 Share Posted December 30, 2011 slicing needed to be nerfed .. it was way out of balanced .. I am glad they nerfed it and hope more crybabies quit, just like the OP you dont think a 70% nerf was a little drastic? 24-40% maybe but 70% is a killer. I agreed in my other posts it needed nerfing btw. But thats a huge hit. And if BW will go that drastic imagine what will happen later in game. They need to make small changes not one huge one up front. And did anyone stop and think maybe the other professions are gimped? Not many are good for much.

I think it's right in line where it should have been from the beginning... NO ONE should be making that much money by just sending out companions .. it wasn't much different than using a third party crafting bot in other games Slicing was way out of balance and deserved to be nerfed and it's perfect just the way it is now Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ryancwn Posted December 30, 2011 Share Posted December 30, 2011 Exactly!!!!! Right on!!! It needed to be nerfed and was handled appropriately BW is doing a good job If rank 6 mats sell for 3k each then slicing rank 6 should buff to return at least 6k credits.

The profit compare to slicing is far too much and the process are, THE SAME! Slicing provide you steady income but minimal credit return (yes! those who make 100k per day 24/7 at lv 28 will be making the same amount of money at lv 50 and lv 50 can get credit way faster than slicing all *********** day).

Umm, it takes almost no time to send them out so you can do the things you mentioned plus make the extra creds. I made over 17.5k on Hoth in just over an hour while questing just opening boxes. Plus if you are picking the right missions you should earn at least 1200 per hour per companion so in your example without selling any drops. 3 companions x 5 hours x 1200 creds equals 18,000 creds for little effort.

KroganElite Posted December 30, 2011 Share Posted December 30, 2011 (edited) Slicing; You can draw your own conclusion. Personally, I think its pretty lackluster now. I agree it needed a nerf, but now the benefits are hardly worth it. I'm only saying that because i have 400/400 slicing, I feel sorry for anyone still trying to level it. 1. It can take a long time to level if you only go for high yield boxes 2. You run a huge defecit if you level it without choosing high yield(most people actually do this to level it faster) 3. Slicing nodes are **** until you get to around lvl 32. Edited December 30, 2011 by KroganElite Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
