Staff Fighting, Where Are Thou?!?!

Still waiting on Staff Fighting, though I haven't tried it yet, and have no idea where to start. I've seen some screenshots of the powers and it seems heavy on the AoEs, and I am dying to roll a Staff Fighting Donatello, minus the turtle, and the green....

Anyone got an idea on when it's coming out? Hopefully this month?

Also slated for this month.

Also, re; AoE's. Not so much. It has a PBAoE and a standard cone. Nothing amazing but pretty good for Stalkers. It's STDPS is pretty... average, to say the least. It'll most likely be an Above Average set, going by the beta testing I performed. I'll first-day purchase it IF I get my desired Naginata, otherwise I may wait and see if we get a Staff Fighting Pack 1.

But yeah, it's going to be Average/Above Average STDPS, and AoE probably High for a Stalker Primary, although Kinetic Melee and Electric Melee are Still Better, and StJ is YMMV.

Not anymore. It was confirmed on the ustream today that every time someone asks when Staff Fighting comes out, they push back the release date.

(just kidding. well mostly)

We are sorry, but the Power Set you are trying to reach:

S-T-A-F-F F-I-G-H-T-I-N-G

Is not in service at this time.

Please check the Power Set and try again.

Or contact your local Developers to Help you.

Not for nothing, but the way they've gone about Staff figthing is sloppy in my opinon.

Sounds more like Valve and Half life 2 episode 3

(It better just be Half Life 3 by this point)

They never gave a date when Staff was coming out until today. All they did was release it on beta so it could get some much needed testing. Be patient, and stop complaining.

Look here I have patient, but it would have been wiser to release it later on beta. and not have it come out first before beast mastery not for nothing. Not my problem it leaked. It just felt maybe to me only I don't know that as a player I was left in dark only with "TMI". All the other release of power-sets seem smoother. Eh it whatever. If I am complaining so be it. I spent time testing staff not beast mastery sorry.

This.

The developers don't owe us anything by any date until they tell us the date. Beta is NOT there to be a 'Coming Soon!" advertisement it is there to test aspects of the game that need testing.

No worries, don't let them bait you because that is all they are trying to do.
