- The problem is not just the lack of LFG, but the light server populations (and spread through the levels) posted by Roundhead 2012-01-29 17:13:14
- Yeah, transportation is bad. I can see maybe not wanting any old group to be able to summon people, but for flashpoints... posted by Khorlo 2012-01-24 12:41:30
- Yeah. As I keep saying, the sooner BioWare realizes and admits they are wrong about LFG, the better for the game overall. NT reply posted by snapper 2012-01-23 23:23:37

    - The 400 requirements aren't a nerf, should have been in from the start. posted by Krltplps 2012-01-17 12:10:12
- Focus does willpower. generators are just strength and aim. NT reply posted by snapper 2012-01-16 20:41:08
  - Which is the problem since Assasins can use generators. NT reply posted by Amber 2012-01-16 22:52:21

    - I wouldn't have let that go. posted by Dwynna 2012-01-13 15:18:40
      - They've got big problems with head gear anyway. Create a character with full beard and try on head gear and watch as it shaves your beard. NT reply posted by snapper 2012-01-13 16:27:27
      - Could just "glue" the cloth to the character's legs when on a speeder. don't let it drape. NT reply posted by snapper 2012-01-13 16:10:50
    - They really ought to have just made the Mirakula masks a race-specific gear slot. NT reply posted by snapper 2012-01-13 08:32:21
  - Yeah it'll happen. I love how cloth works in SWTOR tho. But I must say I wish they'd do something about robes handing down through speeders. NT reply posted by snapper 2012-01-13 03:37:55
- Or perhaps BioWare just played them. posted by snapper 2012-01-12 16:56:12
  - Even without the highest res graphics the game looks nice. Not really 2011+ standard technically, but the art is nice overall NT reply posted by Roundhead 2012-01-12 18:26:26

- While I will totally admit that the texture stuff bugs the crap out of me....you're really wrong about the knight / warrior class. Link posted by Krltplps 2012-01-12 03:01:03
  - I am not wrong about my experience with the class. It feels extremely weak and frankly doesn't give much survivability in exchange. NT reply posted by snapper 2012-01-12 08:42:04
    - Ok, Wrong was the.....wrong choice for word there....it was 1am, cut me some slack! posted by Krltplps 2012-01-12 11:24:35
      - Yeah I read a bit there, but it's all pretty PvP centric. NT reply posted by snapper 2012-01-12 11:26:44
    - For reference, I also have a Jedi Shadow. Another tank class. She kicks ass compared to my guardian. NT reply posted by snapper 2012-01-12 08:49:33
      - The problem is that it is hard to combat a "feeling" with facts or other input posted by Tybio 2012-01-12 08:52:16
        
        I realize that, but I don't think it's an overly subjective assessment to say that it shouldn't take 10 GCDs to kill a normal enemy. posted by snapper 2012-01-12 09:02:56
        
        That's similar to how my Trooper tank feels, but I've only just started a Shadow..so perhaps that is overpowered? NT reply posted by Tybio 2012-01-12 09:05:12
        
        Good god I certainly hope it's not considered overpowered. If it feels "fun" it's overpowered? *boggle* NT reply posted by snapper 2012-01-12 09:10:51
        
        That was the wrong word, sorry. I mean in comparison. posted by Tybio 2012-01-12 09:26:05
        
        I'm not even talking about tanking. I haven't done much of that. posted by snapper 2012-01-12 09:36:37
        
        Er.. sure, but then everyone would play that class no? A perfect tank/dps hybrid? posted by Khorlo 2012-01-12 10:00:43
        
        I definitely still call for death to the holy trinity, but even it doesn't necessarily mean tanks or healers should feel so weak. posted by snapper 2012-01-12 10:21:49
