Is there some reason you can't put aim mods in your moddable robe?

The shield is a trade off for less offensive power. Their damage is esily healed though and the burst they do manage to squeeze out is middle of the pack at best. And before you start screaming "OMG 1MILLION DAMAGE IN WZ LUL!!!" the vast majority of that is aoe and multi dotting..ie meter padding.

This really isn't an issue. Since every piece save bracers and belts are easily obtained while leveling. In what ever armor class you want. And honestly I find it hilarious that someone who doesn't have to wear light armor is complaining. Have you seen our hats? If you want your own social gear you have to wear the same cross dressing dumpster clown hats we are forced into. And no you can't hide your headgear.

....so basically...a focus? On topic. No. It just costs to much money to do it right. I would be frightened to ask BW just how much they sunk into something like this. I mean think about it. They turned EVERY. SINGLE. QUEST. Into a high res cinematic. And really what does it add to the game? Honestly if you were riveted by the class stories(at least the cons one)then you have never read an actual book. My biggest gripe is the same as a lot of people though. What could they have done if more time and money had been spent on actual game mechanics...instead of fluff.

Haha must be your first MMO.

As far as I know Accuracy has no effect on armor, meaning it's pretty much useless to us.

Quoted for brilliance. Ot. While I am enjoying the game so far, the end game is a bit worrying. That is where the game lives or dies. But this is really early in it's life cycle so I will give it time and hope for the best. That's pretty much all you can do. Well that or unsub

The only right answer at this point is nobody(except BW) knows. Without any form of damage meters or at the very least a combat log, the only evidence is anecdotal. And thats just a short toss from useless.

By the same token its stupid to complain about an item that you will just replace in a few levels anyways.

This problem stems from they way items are implemented in swtor, as well as companions while leveling. First, if the item in question has a stat I need I will take it. Now I might need to for my character or I might need it for my companion. I might just need the mods out of it. They allow mods to be removed for just this purpose. Second, if you don't like this behavior dont pug. This sort of thing has been happening since we have had the ability to roll on items in mmos. If you don't like guilds...sorry you're gonna be angry often.

Bwahaha what a load of self indulgent drek this op was. Get over yourself. People who fight combat logs and damage meters are simply to lazy to learn their class and are afraid to be called on it.

I will use WoW as an example since i am more familiar with it. Yes it does every single thing they mention obviously better. And I'm not bashing anyone here. I dint even lay WoW anymore..I just don't like seeing a group of people being abused to get get good pr for someone.

I have not once said that. Just take disabled out of this conversation. It has no bearing on my opinion. Swtor doesn't deserve this award because there is nothing they mentioned this isn't done better elsewhere.

Again. Most mmos come with these features standard. Also...crediting Bioware with onscreen keyboards and voice control...really?

I'm sorry but just because someone agrees with you...doesn't make them mature.
