I know nobody ever commentson , or probably even reads my Star Wars: Galaxies posts, but here's one anyway. The Combat Upgrade went live properly, and I like it a lot! I'm only level 58 (I have all of Bounty Hunter except the master box now, and a chunk of Pistoleer), and as long as I stick to the 50-60 level range for targets, it's a blast. Group play is a lot more meaningful now that crowd control is effective; rooting, mezzing, it's all there. I've found that a root and then some ranged attacks makes me a force to be reckoned with - but root is just slow enough to reapply that I'm not invulnerable. Buffs aren't mandatory, although 10% XP buffs from Entertainers are really handy. Lots of people not wearing armour, ranged weapons beat melee (other than lightsabers), and the new graphics/sounds for combat are a lot more Star Warsy. I don't like some of the new particle effects - they remind me too much of spellcasting in other games. On the other hand, they do make it easy to see what's going on. Even with the early, buggly launch: 8/10 so far. :-)
I hope I feel better soon.
Mood: tired
Music: None
