I was planning to stay out of this discussion as I have decided to try and step back from getting involved in these decisions and let the new server-based leadership take the reigns, such as our lovely Directors @Wolfro & @Gears. However, I see some major flaws in some of the things in this thread. With EOD being taken away from 21st due to them having an excess of trainings that they give, they are no longer considered EOD personnel or bomb defusal experts. There was never any lore behind this, and the only reason they received the trainings for TECH & EOD in the first place was because the SOBDE leadership were on really good terms with 21st leadership when SOBDE decided they didn't want it anymore and so gave it off to their friends in 21st under the stipulation that SOBDE could still assist in hosting these trainings which they no longer are able to. If 21st had been given the defusal kits then it wouldn't have been given to every job, it would have gone to your engineer job (which I believe is your pilots) and all pilots will most likely be getting them in the hotfix as long as the addon is working as intended. The defusal kit was given to SOBDE EOD members as a means of stress testing the bombs live on server with a small amount of members and collecting data before the distribution of a potentially unstable addon to all battalions. The fact that the battalion wasn't consulted isn't something that will always happen, sometimes decisions will happen without consulting those affected as it may be what server leadership deems as best fit for the server at the time. This is sometimes required as the Directors in their positions are expected to be able to take a step back to look at these decisions objectively from a server-wide standpoint when sometimes people can have unintentional tunnel-vision and only consider their own battalion due to the fact they don't have the knowledge of how other battalions may be operating/performing. The option for 332nd jobs was given to the current leader of the 501st at the time, being Rohan when he was XO and there was no Commander Rex. Rohan chose to go with bodygroups for all 501st jobs rather than specific 332nd jobs. 21st currently have the following trainings/priority; TECH. GMACT 1. GMACT 2. GMACT 3. Ship Boarding. EOD (Which they want to have back from SOBDE). UT-AT (Has been requested but no decision made as of yet). I'm sure they can live with losing one training. Also, 21st is the home battalion to the only members of the republic to be able to cloak other than Omega Squad as well as a unit full of jobs with Westars. For example here; 501st get no trainings, their Torrent Company jobs get no extras & 332nd are bodygroups. There are other ways of doing ship infiltration. You guys also have, TECH training to splice doors? You have SO who can cloak and wait for enemies to pass through? You can usually just fly in the same way the droids are flying out? Not having EOD does not invalidate this roleplay. The entirety of SOBDE was given the training, not just their EOD specific jobs. That means there are currently, 25 members (including Jedi and their Regimental) that can host these trainings. SOBDE are also some of the most active players of the server due to their sign-in requirements. The TRAINING was given to SOBDE, not the entirety of EOD roleplay. Meaning, if you're in 21st and you want to be EOD trained and do EOD tasks or incorporate them into your ship boarding , you get it from SOBDE. You guys are making it sound like you were told that you're not allowed to do EOD anymore at all. This is not the case. The only thing they do while out of combat at the moment is host SOBDE tryouts. This gives them a different avenue of the server to be able to explore & will make the server more enjoyable for them as they have a purpose other than just sitting there bored between events. This is straight up, not true. SOBDE had it when I first became a Director in December 2019, it's only been a year. SOBDE had it for the previous 2 years before that and did an extremely good job with it. It was only given to 21st by request of the SOBDE leadership at that time. There are four reasons this argument doesn't make sense; 1. 21st already have the following trainings in which they run. TECH, GMACT 1, GMACT 2, GMACT 3, External Ship Boarding, Cold Weather Warfare. You guys have also requested the UT-AT be added as a training for 21st and also want to keep EOD, you guys have plenty of other trainings to be able to indulge in. No battalion should be a one-stop-shop for all trainings. You have to realise that other battalions (Such as 501st, 212th, CG, Dooms Unit) get nothing. 2. If your battalion's only draw is the fact that you have a training that you run, then you're doing something wrong and that should be a reflection of your BCMD & RCMD if nothing is done about it. 21st has an entire unit with Westars and the only unit of troopers outside of SOBDE that can cloak. 3. Other battalions are doing extremely well without trainings for members external from their battalion, for example Doom's Unit. They don't need a training to be special. You can bring up the argument of "but they have shields on some of their jobs", but 21st has cloaks on some jobs and westars on some jobs, so think about that before responding. 4. The SO loadout can be changed with a server suggestion. The fact the battalion hasn't put one up, is not the fault of the rest of the community. The responsibility on the loadout of your battalion is up to leadership of the battalion if they want to allow a suggestion to be made to change it & then community feedback. Can't blame the community if you haven't made a suggestion for it. In conclusion; The battalion is blowing this WAY out of proportion for what it needs to be, however speaking with the Directors could be the first step of changing this, but that communication hasn't happened. Instead it went straight to the forums/discords. Remember our High Command members, Head Admins & Directors are there to listen to your concerns, answer your questions and work with you towards a resolution.

Name: Null-12 A'den Skirata RP Rank: Captain Suggestion: Make the EOD wires more colorblind friendly so that people who have vision deficiencys (Like me as I am Monochromatic Colorblind in which I cannot see ANY color.) and it sucks since i'm an EOD specialization lore character and I fail at it constantly. Implementation: I want to suggest how for example in Among Us, they have shapes on the wires to help those with vision deficiencys to play the game and enjoy it instead of constantly failing on matching the wires. Maybe put like pictures or simplistic shapes on each of the wires to symbolize their color/meaning. Lore: N/A Workshop content if applicable: https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=2280039009 (This is just the EOD system we have in place now.) (If no workshop content, suggest a developer or put "Require Development")

+1 the daily spin amounts are too low for the current economy imo

-1, giving everyone in a battalion something a single job is allowed to have makes the job useless, like a prior 21st suggestion when asking for a westar for the entire battalion (Making ARC/ARC training useless). I have the hard belief you don't need EOD tools for ever job but instead giving them to the intended jobs so everyone has a chance to do EOD and not relying on the "swarm" of 21st. In addition using "Lore" as an excuse to be OP or to get advantage is ridiculous. And reading your lore page it doesn't ever state that you are specifically EOD/Tech/Boarding parties. Especially when we had other battalions who do those things and try not to claim it or take it. Please keep balancing in mind when making more suggestions to help people out when making choices. <3

Name: Hanz RP Rank: LTC Suggestion: Make a Jackpot on the Synergy spin of 500,000 - 1,000,000 credits that hits for one person every 24 hours Implementation: On the Synergy spin Lore: N/A Workshop content if applicable: N/A (If no workshop content, suggest a developer or put "Require Development") If you are asking to add or change a job, fill out the following Add or Change: N/A (Any job modification requires all this information) Job: N/A Slots: N/A Description: It would only hit like 1 time a day so it wouldn't be a huge cost to the server. Model: N/A (Provide the model string if on server Ex. models/player/synergy/cblake/ls_squad/ls_trp/lstrp.mdl (Get this from the Q menu) Weapons: N/A (If you want a modfication to a weapon/saber you must put the weapon string in the suggestion. Ex. tfa_e5 (Get this from the Q menu) Other: N/A

Name: bud Suggestion: add in file or i guess from phone gallery access so you can paste in stuff easier Why should we implement this? I think this should be added because their is some cool stuff I find but can't post because it has to be inserted as a certain url How will this improve the Forums? Make it easier to post content on fourms on phone and desktops alike

Due to ongoing changes and discussions with high command. This suggestion will be Denied. As of right now the trainings on the server are being evaluated and an announcement on what will happen moving forward will be made in the next coming days. If you have any comments or concerns on this, please feel free to contact your regimental commander on this matter.

If you looked at Acknowledged reports, this has already been addressed that nobody has them right now.

+1 would be a nice addition.

Wait on sec @Forseen, as I think you are misreading or i am or er both are. I am more for the defusal kit as I am informed you need that to defuse a bomb to be added, but I may be incorrect. Also does all SOBDE have the kit or all can host the training. I am on LOA atm so I'm out of the loop a bit. As more kits is good for options and such otherwise a Game master could put down a bomb like "SOBDE can do it" and they happen to be busy atm or whatever. Having them hosting the training alongside SOBDE due to the 21st being henones hosting the training since I joined along with SOBDE. I am aware 21st got full ownership like 2019 or something I believe I was Bacara at the time or atleast CMD. I dont care who is in charge of it tbh. And if you don't want 21st to host the training then fine. I mentioned hosting it as the fact we have been doing it, but not something we need to survive, so to speak. GMACTs is more in an interbattalion thing like a training sim but they have been up in the air last I heard. TECH, thats discussion has already occurred. I am happy to leave SOBDE in charge of hosting it and see what happens. If there are issues then it can be discussed and adapted go solve them. I want SO load out/job numbers/method of entry to change but 21st/SO don't want to neuter them or change them and I'm not gonna force a change. Just realised this is coming off kinda hostile but this isn't the intention. I'll leave it with this closing statement. I agree with you on most points and such but the man factor I would like to see from my point is more the defusal kit but not the training hosting part. I mentioned it as a possible inclusion. Sorry if I came across as arrogant in my previous message but I was going off of my patchy ass memory which has been eroded away by uni and lockdown. Anyway, I am happy to leave and let live and see how SOBDE goes, if its subpar, make adjustments, if not then boom, leave it. Also UTAT I see as a meme and I dont want 21st to get more training, it's more they were already doing EOD. Like the week before the update 13 were hosted. If 21st want to use the UT-AT then get trained in it.

Afternoon children, We'll be redoing the BombUI anyway, we'll add numbers next to the wire and EOD training will most likely be updated with this when it's released so you know which numbers mean what. For all you colourblind people <3

+1, Deuteranopia sucks. Having shapes or somethings along those lines helps us pick out the correct ones

I believe Friskie said he would do this however I will +1 this due to me dying because of your failure to see color. Hooligan.

I do have to ask. Where in quotes does it say the 21st Nova Core or the Galactic Marines does EOD. Not to mention this post is very similar to the last one.

Bug Type (Server:):Clone Wars Severity level (1-3):3 Evidence (if you can):People see it in game on all 501st troopers. Description of the bug:For other people they don't see our helmets or other body groupers. Leading to people coming up to 501st member multiple times a day saying fix yourselves but there is nothing we can do. Worst part is no 501st member sees what other people see. As well as 332nd Bodygroupers being not there but that can wait. How can we recreate it:Legit look at 501st and you will see it

-1 I control F'd the words Explosive, Defusal, and EOD, on both canon and legends articles and nothing showed up.
