I think those are the only ones where order matters beyond the Forged Alliances/Shadow of Revan flashpoints you should have done leveling up. If you haven't done them, also do Taral V/Boarding Party -> Maelstrom Prison/The Foundry.

I think I did the launch-era ones at least on republic side forever ago. What about Depths of Manann-Legacy of the Rakata-etc, are those automatically given to you when you start SoR?

Another awesome thing about this expansion is that an endgame character gets flooded with legacy-bound versions of all the coolest old raid gear. I got a black/black dye out of a cantina crate on a lovely alt, put it in the best smuggler jacket ever, and mailed it to a more deserving character:

Not really. The Korriban and Tython flashpoints are effectively identical for both factions, they just have different-looking mobs and you'll do them in a different order depending on your faction.

Also, don't worry about the SoR flashpoints at all. You'll get to them during the single-player story in solo mode.

The lead up to them is different, but they are basically the same once you get in.

You sure can! I actually just tested this. With the outfit designer system, you could send it around to as many characters as you want and have them all wear it.

Obviously, that particular chestpiece comes from turning in the "smuggled goods" supply crates, which seem to be the most common type you get.

Its kind of dumb/clunky currently, when you get the quest it automatically gives you the tactical version. Drop just the one that says [TACTICAL] and the droid near the entrance to the FP will let you have the option of a story mode. Then you get the GSI droid and everything.

Discovery from earlier today: if anyone likes title hunting, the world boss on Corellia gives the Lucky title for killing him. 5.5 million health, but me, another goon, and five pubbies were able to grind it down with one healer and an offhealer. He's in the Axial Park subzone, in a big enclosure in the middle of Coronet Zoo. He's not a world boss for the weekly, but Stalking the Score accepts a trophy from killing him.

You should have let him kill you. He gives you the "unlucky" title then. :D

Did not know that. Joined up with a pubbie raid hunting bosses, but they bailed after the second and my marauder has one more to go for the recruitment.

I think I'll check around tomorrow night to see if there's another boss up if there are goons interested.

Do I unlock all the expansions permanently if I sub for just one ($15) month? If so, why is the Shadow of Revan expansion still for individual sale on the sw:tor site for $19.99?


Also, if I create a character with a race that is locked away from ftp accounts during my sub month, will I still be able to play that character after that month ends?

So what's the trigger for the quest to recruit Lokin once you're done with Chapter 9? I've recruited Yuun, Talos, Xalek, and Nico (and of course the two droids), and I thought you only needed to have four recruited to unlock it? Or does Yuun not count, and I have to do the tedious bullshit needed for Qyzen or Pierce? :ughh:

The tools of a hero mean nothing without a solid core.

Since my week referral sub expires soon (site says 1 day and 10/30 at the same time) I figure I'lll be a test subject for what we can still access if it runs out as far as SoR and FE. Is anything I have going to be gone for good, or just in stasis until I resub (credit cap, data crystal cap if that still changes, 3rd crewskill, anything I've forgotten)?

Speaking of which, to the Bioware goon who was asking about broken UI things, how about fixing this 3-4 year old issue? :v:

Added to my list. I have much bigger problems with the guild window (like WHY THE gently caress ARE THERE TWO OF THEM) that I'm hoping we can address soon, especially since pop keeps going up. I've only been on SWTOR for a little over a year, so half of the fun of my job is hearing about bugs for the first time that players are like "yeah that poo poo was broke in 2011 lol."

edit: oops, I guess you're talking about the /who search popup. GOT IT

A thousand times this. Also utility selections should be part of this one click, too. Waffledoodle if you do this you'll make at least two goons very very happy. FF14 has spoiled me on spec-swapping.

I've seen plenty of requests for this, so I'll push for it in our planning sessions. It's a "proper" feature which means people have to approve it and poo poo before we throw devs at it. In the meantime, sounds like I should study up on FF14's implementation.

Yeah this is what I mean, I can't even get the quest to pop up.

Granted I also had that issue where I didn't get Xalek after finishing his quest and only got him after the patch fixed it, but I'm sort of curious as to the exact requirements for Lokin's quest to appear, like if the Star Fortress companions count, or whether the ones I have should count enough, so I know whether I need to submit a ticket (maybe to force credit for the returned companion) or whether I need to suck it up and recruit one of those other ones.

I had a weird error tonight, wondering if anyone else encountered this. I just finished Chapter 9 on my Agent. I've previously completed it on my Sorcerer and Warrior.

On the companions screen, my agent seems to be missing SCORPIO. She's there for my warrior and sorcerer, under Main Characters. Anybody else having this problem?

I'm in the same boat. There is supposed to be a quest to get a companion, and I don't have that quest. What is the trigger to recruit him?

There's only one thing in the mountains that leaves a track like this. The creature of legend that roams the Timberline. My people named him Sasquatch. You call him... Bigfoot.
I only had Lokin's quest pop up after I did a quick 3 world boss run to get Qyzen. I -think- it's Nico that doesn't count, since not everyone can get him and some folks may have him before the alliance is a thing.

So I also came back to check out the new expansion and brought myself up to speed. However this good deal is locked cause I am a scumbag from down under. Any other places anyone could pick up this deal if I plan to pay some cash
