It was great to hear about the new upcoming abilities for hunters and to finally hear some info on dual boxing. FOR THE HORDE! Maybe you can get Sy and Fik back to expand on the dual boxing and some more info on the upcoming Fury Warriors dual wielding 2-handers and new Mage and Rogue talents…

Ah… Pre patch 9 Jedis… I guess I am one of them 3!

In the “olden days” of Star Wars Galaxies, you basically became a jedi through either pure luck, or hardcore grinding. Upon character creation your character is allocated a number of professions you need to max to unlock the famed Jedi slot.

I cant remember, it might have been 3, it might have been 5. But when there was some 25 professions, and you dont know what profession to grind towards (unless you obtained a Holocron – an item that when used will tell you one of the professions that must be maxxed out.)

In addition, these Jedis had perma-death. you were allowed 3 character deaths – and then the jedi is wiped and you have to start again. this meant that Jedis were rarely seen, as if they were sighted, a bounty hunter can learn of their location, and go hunting…

Great fun, fond memories. It was the jedi-grind that stopped me playing the game Im glad of this though, because I dont ever want to see what the NGE had done to the game… *wipes a tear away*

Velk out.
