Greetings. I'm playing my 4th toon so far on SWTOR and this time I've chosen the Commando. I enjoy the gameplay, but I'm sitting at level 14 and I've already got FOUR AoEs and and 5-6 direct damage abilities that all perform very similar results. What's the deal here? Do I really need four 2-Ammo damage abilities that do roughly the same amount of damage? I have something like 10 very similar damage abilities at 14. Too cluttered, especially with a priority system.
Secondly, what's the deal with the WoW-Vanilla-era talent trees? "Improve the damage of X damage spell by 1/2/3%?" Come on BioWare!
I hope they do something soon with the UI as well. The unit frames are awful. Health bars colored red at 100%? No bueno. And they are very thin and hard to read at glance.
Finally, no information is relayed about procs -- this is unacceptable in a game where every GCD is filled with an action and there are ZERO visible queues that a proc-based ability is usable without pausing casting to see if the button is lit up. I shouldn't have to stop casting for this.
I hope these things get fixed because the game is smooth and can be an absolute blast to play. Looking forward to seeing what they come up with!
