Nerd Of Prey posted:They also require every character to do it if they want to finish the Shadow of Revan storyline. They kindly offered a "solo mode" where 2/3 of your party are AI controlled and can't figure out the lovely mechanics of that fight, so you can expect your companion and your combat droid to get knocked into the pit or stuck on a ledge almost immediately, leaving you to get jerked around by the bosses until you die. I haven't had that kind of bad luck when I've done Blood Hunt, but yeah, it feels tedious and not fun. I would have another four or so characters all the way through KotFE if it weren't required. Fortunately, solobot is so good at healing that both he and my companion can stand in the fire during the last fight and not die.

For sure, but it's not required. I personally ran SoR 16 times just to get Ziost gear haha. I had it down to being able to do everything in like 3 hours.

I understand Rishi and Yavin (plus, the quests in both fly by quick and give amazing XP) but in the 3 times I've done them it I've hit 65 immediately before and immediately after finishing Yavin, so why run Ziost when I can run through KOTFE instead to zip through to alliance building Plus, I feel like Ziost is pointless after the first time through, and there isn't really that much story anyway So far my preferred path has been -> Class/PVP/Heroics to 53 -> FA to 56-57 -> Rishi to 61 -> Yavin -64-65 I skipped FA on one character and instead did Ilum/Oricon, but I actually prefer the quick solo flashpoints to the back and forth questing

So I'm finishing off the last story I haven't done, Trooper. This is such a slog, and I'm not really feeling the story at all right now, even towards the end of Chapter 1. Does it get any more interesting than just basic soldier shootmans? I've been going as dark side as possible, and it's still feels kind of limp.

Not... really You're basically a top-level special unit leader and do top-level special unit stuff throughout. Some people really like the trooper story but it's a mixed bag for most and a slog for others. I personally find it the least interesting of the 8 available. E: If you like the playstyle, the Bounty Hunter is the mirror and while it's arguably the least interesting story Empire-side (and then it's the best for other people - you know, diff'rent strokes and all), it's much better than trooper IMO.

Hulk Smash! posted:Not... really Yeah, Bounty Hunter was a lot better in general for me, even if it did sort of fall apart for awhile in Chapter 2, before picking up at the end of Chapter 3. The fact that I liked Pyrotech Powertech a lot more than I like Gunnery Commando might also be a reason. I kind of want to redo Warrior, Smuggler and Inquisitor, the former two because I haven't played them in a long time, not since all the reworks, and the latter because I want to make some different choices, especially in the finale, and also pick Assassin over Sorcerer. I decided I didn't really care for Sorcerer, while my Jedi Shadow was my favorite class to play, and I want to take them into KoTFE content.

Unfortunately (or fortunately since TNG is mostly Imp side), all of the animations are way better Empire side and so is the voice work. Catsworth posted:Also those new sabers are amazing.

The assault cannon looks cool but all the moves look stupid compared to their Mercenary equivalents. Grav Round just looks like a limp dick shooting out a weak glob compared to tracer missile.

Somehow I ended up having a Pyromech be my main. The Hunter story really isn't the greatest thing in the world after Chapter 1, just the echo what a few people said, but the actual class is really fun to play. You get a grappling hook to reel people in! Like that time Boba Fett did that to Luke Skywalker only to die moments later! The main issue with all non-force classes is that their storylines start to break down after Makeb. It really doesn't make sense that the Empire would hire what amounts to a jumped-up thug like the Bounty Hunter to go after the likes of Revan or the Emperor. The Smuggler makes even less sense. I know it seems kind of ridiculous to say something breaks the suspension of disbelief in a space wizard game like this, but eh, that's just how it feels to me. I'm playing through KOTFE with my Warrior and Knight to get into the story and just skipping the cutscenes with my Hunter for that reason.

Can I get khalos mask? I'm a sith warrior or something(I use one saber but I think I unlock duel weld soon). First mission was to get some ultimate sith death saber and then tell some little prick I'm gonna rip his rear end in a top hat out when I get to battle him in an arena or something.

Medullah posted:FYI - with the upcoming crafting changes, expertise crystals will no longer be craftable but they're not getting rid of the schematics if you already have them - so if you've got an artificer, go buy the two War Hero schematics you can get (White-Purple-Blue and White-Yellow-Orange) before you can't get em anymore. Does this mean the ones from the pvp vendor also?
