I cant decide if I want to remake my sith spy on the guild server or not. Either way I made a sith juggernaught named Revengeancious to join the guild.

Just use a referral link and transfer, no need to reroll since you get a free transfer

I am incapable of interacting with normal people and am pissing about with my old Jugger on the current goon server since Veela is no more, so expect to get a pestering message from Alethk for a guild invite.

:wrong: :coffeepal:
Speaking of, who can promote within the guild? I work weird hours so Im on and off at odd times and it seems like I get a lot of people looking for guild invites but theres rarely anyone on that can.

Im eskeshehir, but really should probably just give the invite power to a whole bunch of people, its not like we are near cap or anything

Like an arrow, I was only passing through.
Are there multiple levels of Rocket Boost? I can't find them in the cartel market. I bought a cheapo pack a year ago that had it and some other beginner stuff but I can't even find those bundles any more. Also, if I transfer, will my legacy transfer with me? It's not much but I do have some unlocks on it that I would like to keep.

Yeah, there's 3 levels - but II and III aren't in the cartel market - you buy them from the legacy page on your character. Your legacy does transfer with you.

For the levels, for crafting, and for new content afaik. Basically if you want to play anything beyond the game as it was when Dread Fortress/Palace was the endgame you should pick up the expansion. (You should, it's great)

The deal that is on right now for 2400 credits + 2 months sub + expansion for $40 is a pretty drat good bargain all things considered.

You want this so bad. Rocket Boost lasts 15 seconds and the cooldown is reduced to 30 seconds. It's great. Rocket Boost with level 1 cooldown is kind of stupid.

I'm playing and a Jedi at the moment to get the KOTOR 3 experience, but as soon as I'm done I'm swapping to a Merc. The gameplay feels way more fun.

Well gently caress. I just wanted to hit things with two lightsabres instead of one and not have to tape two together at the end.

Anything more than single saber is for posers. If it's good enough for Darth loving Vader, it's good enough for you.

Welp. Re downloading this since its launch. What am I in for?

Does free to play affect leveling up anyway or does it only affect raiding end game?

Will my toons or whatever swtor calls them still be there? I havent played for an extremly long time...

I was thinking in terms of pure DPS, of course =O) Melee derpers still have massive issues when it comes to raid mechanics. I mean, it's pretty bad when people identify us by our buffs instead of how hard we hit things, considering that's what we trade survivability for

Two glowsticks foreva! You haters will never feel the pride of pulling out all the stops to hit sub-optimal parses that other classes poo poo out without even trying

They're fine. All the classes are good and fun for 99% of the player base. Once you get to HM and NiM mode endgame raiding you might have to worry about your parsing but that's not going to be an issue for anyone in our guild, it's s casual guild at best. And if you are a good player that knows and enjoys your class, you'll be in better shape than if you picked a "better parsing" class.

Yeah it's mostly just sad playing mine now. Like vanilla after a Baskin Robbins buffet, does what other flavours do, only worse

The devs have said the RNG-ness of pre-3.0 ComSents was a mistake, but it was the best drat mistake they ever made! Better than most of their conscious design choices imho. So of course it had to go

Gotta hand it to Bio/EA, they have a knack for customer relations. They make you feel so valued by completely loving you over in so many ways once you move from subscriber to F2P/pref. My favorites are: gathering cant crit anymore, 5 warzones per week (and the unlock is only for 1 char), 350k max credits while all the unlocks are way more on GTN.

This isn't true.

It's pretty much designed for subscribers to buy the unlocks they'll need before they go F2P.

As I've said a billion times, this game is F2P like those iphone and android games are F2P - you can do it, but without spending any money, it's going to be a miserable experience. Just subscribe if you're going to play - if $15 a month breaks your bank, you shouldn't be playing games anyway.

It's less that Marauders are bad and more that the current two operations hate melee. Even then, I think that every fight of the HMs has been cleared by groups with non-Powertech melee; certainly everything except Revan has. A lot of players have moved away from the class as much because the new rotations just aren't fun as for balance reasons.
