JonathonSpectre posted:Hi there TOR thread. My buddy and I have decided to re-up and play TOR as basically a duo Bioware RPG over Christmas break. Is there anything on the Cartel market that's such a huge quality of life upgrade for levelling that we should both go ahead and spend $5-10 to get it/them? We're both going to subscribe if that makes any difference, and we were both CE purchasers if that makes any further difference. Get all 3 levels of rocket boost. That'll make getting around much faster.

 Last few days! So reminder that we have a guild fund drive going right now! For every 1,000 credits you deposit, you get one entry into the raffle.The grand prize is a probe droid companion! It's a companion that you can use for combat while your other companions craft or do other stuff.  It's also super easy to raise influence because you can use Jawa Junk to buy gifts - a stack of 99 greens gets you to about 17 influence. 400 cartel coins unlocks it for your account. Or just sell it for 10 million on the GTN! How do I deposit? First travel to the guild ship -  Then deposit in the guild bank!  We'll probably go for a week or so and see how it looks. Right now I'll tentatively say 12/8 is the deadline for donations.

I'm actually really good, which is why I can play without grinding. Was Belsavis written by a different team? I've done two characters on it now and the difference in quality from the rest of the game is huge. Also there's something in the north that's tanking my new graphics card's performance. A class quest of "kill 12 x and 5 y" and they're all spread out. Garbage game design.

Whenever Bioware and Star Wars meet on xenotech, you can bet 99% of time on "It's Rakata tech, I don't have to explain poo poo." route. If it's Star Wars only, then it's Space Magic more commonly known as the Force.

Holy crap the cost of bounty contracts baffles me. The cheapest one on the GTN right now is 146,666 credits. Also apparently there is some exploit where people are getting unlimited rank 6 legendary companion gifts. So expect to see some bans coming soon!

Unlocking Legacy Travel I-III is also good; this reduces your Quick Travel cooldown to 0. Medullah posted:Holy crap the cost of bounty contracts baffles me.

Also, if you want the Sharp Dresser achievement and you weren't around in year 1 to do the Grand Acquisitions Race or the original Rakghoul events, then you're gonna need around 400 completed contracts to buy the outfits. shadok fucked around with this message at 18:37 on Dec 6, 2015 |

Are there any blaster rifles with bayonets? Would look cool, especially on vanguards. And by cool I mean silly because they'd never actually use them but also cool.

Is there a big difference between pub and imp when doing the expansions like makes, revan, Ziost etc that it's worth doing both sides. Just got to Ziost and my agent and was wondering if it was worth it to run through it all again on a pub class.

Makeb is unique on both factions but beginning with SoR the story is pretty much the same with some minor flavor for all factions/classes.

So for a "generic" PvP legacy armor set, what's the best augments to use? Assuming set is used for healers/dps. Crit/alacrity mix?

I like that they're finally giving us a color crystal in a nice classic light blue that can be added to collections and doesn't require level 50. "Farmhand Blue." Clever! sassassin posted:The game isn't giving me enough xp. Actually I think the problem is you're not earning enough XP. Sort of like how you don't typically earn enough money if you only work four hours a week. It really takes just a bare minimum of effort to get this game to absolutely poo poo XP all over you, and if you don't bother to do that much, it's not really the game's fault! Reminds me of the guy who was pissed off that crafting required materials. If you're gonna play RPG's at all, it's probably best that you come to terms with the most basic tenets of the genre.

Nice run of Terror from Beyond tonight. TNG is now 4/5 on HM TFB and working on the Terror itself. It felt like real progression raiding again, repeated wipes on Operator IX and all. I appreciate everyone sticking with it as long as they did, especially those new to the fights and learning everything on the fly. We're putting together another group to kill the Terror tomorrow night at 8:00 Eastern and will have room for at least a few people who weren't there tonight.

I like that the weekly for doing Tacticals doesn't give you credit for roughly a third of tactical FPs, so you either get to remove those when you're queuing (and forgo the daily reward) or potentially do a ton of extras if you happen to get screwed on which ones pop. Couldn't figure out why my log says I only have credit for having done one of them this week.

If you're doing it with a goon group you can always just leave, abandon the flashpoint and then queue again if you get one that didn't count.
