I upgraded to Win 10 and now when I load the launcher I get a pop up asking if I want to allow this app to make changes. I set it to run as administrator and made sure it was in the firewall exception list, but I still get the pop up. This doesn't happen when I load the Guild Wars 2 launcher tho, so I don't know why it does it or what else I can do to make it stop. Anyone else have this issue or know what I can do about it?

I think those codes expire on a timer, sadly, and not based on # of clicks. I only shared my code among my very small group of friends (not trying to be selfish but there were dozens of them posted here) so it's highly unlikely that they all got clicked 50 times. The only one still active in my list is NYCC as well. We might as well milk this thing for all it's worth before it goes dead, so anybody that needs the NYCC code, here's another one: http://www.swtor.com/user/ce/5lq49 That last speeder is the all-black version, I think, which is about as good-looking as those things get. I also got two black/black dyes from those as opposed to none from all the other codes combined, so maybe it has a better drop rate? Could be a total coincidence. Thumbtacks posted:I've wanted that loving jacket ever since I got it on my gunslinger years ago. How do I get it? Just turn those in and hope I get lucky? That's what I did. It's totally random, you just get "a piece of gear" that could be just about anything, but smuggler gear only drops from smuggler crates, and chestpieces aren't too uncommon. I haven't really handed in that many crates, so either I'm phenomenally lucky or it's not that rare. I didn't see this answered earlier: Blockhouse posted:is there a list of exactly what sets are in the armor/weapon packs They have said the list is "everything that has ever been in a cartel pack ever." It gets updated whenever a new thing comes out. They are color-coded by rarity, so you can look up the things you want in collections and see if the symbol on it is gold, silver or bronze. As I understand it, the bronze boxes have a chance to drop literally everything, but the rare stuff remains rare. If you pay more for a silver or gold box, it means you won't get common crap. My friend bought one gold box and got the Havok Squad set, so he was pretty stoked. His trooper is looking pretty fly running around in that with a matching companion.

What dye colours go for the most? Made about 500k in the last two days just by turning collected crystals into medium grey while levelling.

Bait and Swatch posted:E: Also, what is the reason behind the price differences for purple tier 5 companion gifts? Some were selling at 25k, and others were at 5k. Is it the type? Or are certain "rares" more rare than others? It's due to the type of gifts. There are several companions who give big influence gains for Weapons or Cultural Artifacts. Things like Courting or Republic Memorabilia aren't nearly as useful.

My PAX code also expired, but here is my NYCC one: http://www.swtor.com/user/ce/1gxtp1 I'm having a really minor issue that is bothering me. After every transition with a companion in tow, he gets selected after the loading screen. So then I have to press escape. Does anyone else experience it? I did report it, nevertheless.

Here's my NYCC code, thanks for the share! http://www.swtor.com/user/ce/353ygt SolidSnakesBandana posted:It only works if you aren't subscribed. If for some reason that still doesn't work, could always try mine: http://www.swtor.com/r/SbLXBF I got quote:This account is currently not eligible for the Friends of SWTOR Referral Program, Please visit the Referral page at https://www.swtor.com/info/friends for eligibility requirements. I'm not a subscriber, as evidenced by the fact that I can't sprint. I'm level 3. I accidentally got some dark side points but I don't think it's that. So I don't know. Thanks for trying though. If I can sprint and do "stuff" for $5 and enable other Preferred perks, maybe I'll get that...

Skychrono posted:Here's my NYCC code, thanks for the share! Ah, your problem is probably that you don't have an email address tied to your account - do that and you should be able to click a referral link. Though realistically, this game is meant to be played as a subscriber. The $40 Amazon Bundle is a fantastic deal right now, giving you cartel coins and all of the expansions thus far, with 3 months to play them. A new Xbox One game costs more than that for less content than you'd get subbing and playing for 3 months. Even more so now, where the new expansion is 100% subscriber only.

To be fair, you can get by really well by not subscribing until you hit level 50. I recommend at least making some headway into your class quest to see if you actually like the game or not. The biggest thing that's going to annoy you is that you can't sprint and you have a limited number of quickbars. If you subscribe and play casually for two weeks to hit level 50, one could argue that you didn't really make use of your subscription at all.

Yeah, I'll try it out (maybe as preferred) before I drop more than that. That said, aren't all of the expansions free if you're a subscriber? So that Amazon bundle is coins and 3 months subbed?

I think it also unlocks the expansion for non-subscriber status so that if the account lapses back to Preferred, you don't lose the expansion. But don't take my word for it, that bundle has always been incredibly misleading.

I believe if you get that bundle though, you would have access to Shadow of Revan even if your subscription were to run out and you still wanted to play. Not a huge deal really.

sassassin posted:What dye colours go for the most? Made about 500k in the last two days just by turning collected crystals into medium grey while levelling. I'm not on a different server, but dark red / black is my hottest seller (requires Yavin rep) followed by black / light gray, which I think is trainable from a regular trainer at 500 skill, if I remember right. They use grade 7 and grade 8 materials, respectively, so you'll want to pile up as many of those as you possibly can. Both of those sell pretty regularly, but I can get at least twice as much money for the dark red / black. That's probably because not every artificer has Yavin rep maxed out, so there's less competition.

Right, if you subscribe you keep everything released up to now. At the very least worth $15 for a month's sub.

How different is the new stuff? I downloaded this yesterday and am doing the "origin story" stuff and it's all kinda clunky feeling to me. Is it true I can subscribe for 1 month to get access to the new expansion, cancel my sub and still finish out the story quests? I'm mainly just looking for something to fill some downtime so I don't burn myself out on FFXIV again.

Noirex posted:So even though I unsubbed many months ago, I still received the mount, blaster and Nic companion today when I logged in on my sub. Which is a very nice surprise but still left me pretty confused. PsycheNotFound posted:I initially didn't qualify for the pre-subbed rewards as I missed a couple of crucial dates for them, but when I logged in yesterday I also received the same. I'm guessing Bioware decided, "Eh, why not?" and decided to be lax on the criteria for rewards. I resubbed in time for the speeder, but not the blaster or Nico, and I only got the speeder. I'm not sure what's going on.

Help me gentle goons, you're my only hope. I have a serious case of don't know whathefucktoplay-itis. I keep trying different classes but its tough to tell what they will play like when they have all their abilities. I'm on the path to burning myself out because I keep trying everything. - I am a casual player who will likely never see the inside of a hard mode raid but enjoy grouping although my play schedule makes things difficult - For some reason I like the PvP in this came but would most likely queue solo for unranked matches for giggles. When I do warzones I try to actually do objectives (defend a node, etc). - Not a fan of glass cannons since I find myself getting slow in my dotage - I like to press buttons a lot - don't have to have a light saber Please help me.

I would say Sniper/Gunslinger - the rotation is dead simple, while still pressing something every GCD, and they basically just poo poo damage all over everything.

I second this, both are great fun and superb damage plus I liked the agent story. An assault bounty hunter works too (it's my main) but I actually prefer to play my sniper or gunslinger these days.
