Im not really sure what the crux of your problem is - is it that you cant use it with your skills, or that it dropped in a 'raid' or that the customer service person didnt answer your question adequately?
The whole thing is, I am not complaning about not been able to use it...
I am complaning about the GM been unable to answer my question...

All I wanted to know is.

1- Is it working as intended ?
2- So it is a hard mode epic drop for 4 companions in the game ?

That is all...

And before some1 else say "duh"... it is not clear... alot of ppl have that doubt... as I previously posted asking about this earlier on, and alot of ppl said it is supposed to be a bug...

Overall a pretty boring design where every single class, no matter the spec, has no choice of what weapons they want to use. All of them use the same type of weapon. More to the point offhands are not even displayed in the game either. My OP has a knife that I never seen in the game, not to mention that every single icon for knife items is the same lol. It is the way it is or the way they intended, but it is a bad and boring design which creates no gear choice whatsoever.

The funny thing is...

Ppl can't agree on terms with this...

There were ppl calling me clueless and ppl saying I am right...
And still, we have no idea what the "right answer" is...

Right....


Actually wrong.

1) Where you SPECIFICALLY given this item by the game, or did you roll for it?
2) Its working as intended
3) Its a drop that is best used by a companion.

1) Where you SPECIFICALLY given this item by the game, or did you roll for it? - Roll
2) Its working as intended - You don't know that. You said it is, but a few others say it is not. You can't say it is. That is your opnion. Mine is diferent than yours. That does not make my opnion right, but it also dosen't make yours. You can't say that for a fact.
3) Its a drop that is best used by a companion. - Only used by companions

A bigger issue is "Why the damn can an Assassin use Electrostaves at all if they lock you out of your most important abilities?"

There's no reason to be granted that weapon proficiency post AC - you will never use it. They should make the saber abilities compatible with staves...or remove the ability to use them.

And yeah, it's silly for a hard mode flashpoint to drop a weapon that is only used by companions

If they played the game they might understand what people are talking about more often (my perception is they don't; I've never had to contact them, thankfully).

1) So you CHOSE to get an item which is best used as a companion item, and then complain that its not properly usable by your character - exactly whoes fault is it?

2) I do know that. They chose to put and item in the loot drop table, hence as intended. They MAY choose in the future to make all the skills usable with that item, they might in the future choose to remove the item from the loot drop table - however at the moment it is working as they intended.

3) No. Ill repeat this. NO. It is BEST usable by a companion. Your class CAN use it, but not very effectively.

Why are you blaming bioware for your inabiltily to read skills correctly? As I said earlier - I got medium orange armour, not heavy. Thats MY fault - should I perhaps blame bioware for allowing me to use medium armour in the first place, or should I blame myself for my inability to read. Ill answer my own question - its my fault.

Yes!!!, 100% agreed...
For all the reasons you said, I opened the ticket to ask "Is it working as intended"?
And I was unable to get a straight answer...
