kippa posted:Actually, it stays bound to legacy. It's an amazing way to send lightsaber crystals to alts without paying the CC to unlock them (and you can send BoP crystals the same way). Spawn an extra cartel coin crystal, put it in one of the legacy weapons and mail it to an alt, they pull it out and it gets added to their collection too. Right, I was talking about the non-modifiable Inheritance and Birthright weapons. They have base stats and can't have crystals/hilts/etc added to them. Those are the ones you get randomly in flashpoints and such that you can send the token to a low level alt who can use it for about 3 levels. Not worth it.  *edit* Did that change? I know I used them for my 2 of my alts and there was no slot for anything... Okay cool, I stand corrected. Medullah fucked around with this message at 16:53 on Sep 27, 2013 |

Yeah the stats can't be altered, but they do have a crystal slot now (now I think about it that got added later, maybe in 2.0?) so they're definitely worth claiming just to send crystals to alts, paying 7k credits is a whole lot better than 360cc. E: Yeah, originally they were completely worthless but they altered them at some point to add the crystal slot, and I think they buffed the stats a bit too. Definitely not worth bothering spending commendations on, but the tokens you get free (and as random drops) are worth using for a bit, they're usually way better than other gear of the same level, that level 33 sniper rifle was better than everything until I put all purple mods in my orange one at level 39. kippa fucked around with this message at 17:01 on Sep 27, 2013 |

So I got a purple lightsaber hilt and it says I need to purchase an Artifact Equipment Authorization to use it. The gently caress is that?

No, subscribers can use artefact equipment with no extra charge. If you sub and drop back down, any artefact equipment you have equipped will stay on, but I think you don't benefit from the stats. Or maybe you can just never change it.

You still benefit from whatever equipment you are wearing, but removing anything you don't have an authorization for prevents you from re-equiping it.

Just hit 30 so I've got Trickshot now. What's my rotation from here out? I have a feeling it won't change THAT much (except Speed Shots and Flyby) Noxxic's rotation is hilariously useless and the official forums are circlejerking about a hybrid build because it does like 200 more dps than 36/5/5 or whatever the "standard" rotation is, and I don't want to gently caress around with Vital Shot, the whole reason I liked this class is the lack of dots.

I have a feeling it won't change THAT much (except Speed Shots and Flyby) My rotation didn't change much until I hit 31 and got the improvement to Trickshot which refreshes the CD after Quickdraw, Aimed Shot, or 2 X Charged Burst. Then again, I don't really follow rotations much...

After you get Speed Shot it will basically go: Speed Shot, Trickshot, Burst Volley (if cooled down), Speed Shot, Trickshot; Charged Burst, Charged Burst, Trickshot; Aimed Shot, Trickshot; then possibly Charged Burst or other fillers until Speed Shot is available again. Ideally you'll want to throw Vital Shot in as well but it's not a huge loss of dps if you don't, and it only matters on bosses anyway since most things die faster than the DoT duration. Depending on the exact spec you might throw Sabotage Charge in when you have excess energy. Something I've started doing recently is to leave cover and immediately drop back in if it looks like my energy will top off within the next couple pulses. This activates Snap Shot to instantly consume some energy so that I'm not wasting the regen pulse, as well as refresh the damage reduction from Ballistic Dampers.

Thumbtacks posted:Is that the order of priority? I always assumed Aimed Shot with two charges of Charged Aim would take priority over Charged Burst. It's more the order of usage, so that you always do the Charged Burst x2, Trickshot combo (and thus have the 2 stacks) before you use Aimed Shot.

Basically you want to maximize the amount of Followthroughs/Trickshots you throw out.

The reason I ask is, while surely around 7 dollars of CC isn't that bad, unless you want to use that mount a lot there will probably be something that's better that will come in Cartel Packs down the road, which will make that 7 dollars look pointless.

He came off as dorky, stilted, and afraid to offend you as an imperial dating a Sith should be. Corso pisses me off, I played a male IA because I thought Vector would be boring (ended up my favorite companion) hated the Trooper's cat, was bored to tears playing a Knight... Corso could have been good because his first few dialogues are the farm brat making sure he makes it clear that he respects you, and he is sorry for ever judging you being a woman. Then he decides to go back to being sorta sexist in all his dialogues once you actually trip the romance.

So far my experience with Corso has been leading him on and then crushing him every time I flirt with someone and repeating as necessary. At one point you can sleep with Skavak which is absurd and he gets very angry, which counteracts the absurdty and makes it funny.

I appreciate that you have the option to flirt with Corso and then when he starts to get into you just tell him that you were only flirting and not interested in something serious. Its much better than leading him on and then turning around and calling him a knob and makes for stronger characterization imo. Of course I haven't seen the higher dialogue options. Doesn't he get really creepy and tell you that you'll get you eventually or something?

You mean reclaim Alderaan from the human invaders, right? It's the Killik homeworld. And heck, if the Imperials were to help the Killiks with that, they'd probably be spectacular allies in the war against the republic despots who waged a war of genocide against them for millennia.
