One dualsaber is all that is on the Harby GTN too...for 500 million. I could actually afford that but it would just about break me.

Fake Edit: and as I type this it was relisted for 50 million. I offered 50 million for the single saber in Fleet and didn't get any bites.

Yeah, I honestly don't know what I would have done if I got one in a crate. I'd want to keep it considering rarity but those prices would be tempting to just list it.

Also, anyone got early prices on the War Droid companion on the GTN? Mine unbinds today. (Medullah, if you still want it, it's yours as soon as I can figure a price).

Most of the time the blade retracts. At which point, it might look a little better on the hip. I dont have a Marauder so I cant show both blades - if no one posts one, Ill throw up a pic over the weekend.

I suppose buying the hypercrates and just selling them down the line would be a pretty nice earner.

I just bought a warbot for 8.4mil and there are a bunch of them up. It only gets one trick though, which is shimmying while gonking (it's adorable).

Also, there are now 2 unstable dualsabers on the GTN. One for 45 mil. The other for 25 mil. Let the undercutting begin.

If i had the money it'd be super tempting to buy the 25 and put it up for 40.

I mean there's no sense in putting one up for 20 mil less than the next guy unless you've gotta pack back a Hutt for some gambling losses like today or he's gonna freeze you in carbonite.

Since I'm pretty sure that can't happen, you're just loving dumb if you don't list high and wait it out. People will be buying these new sabers for quite a while.

Goats are cheap! Only gonna cost ~6mil for 7 goats! Hooray! I also got the entire new slicer set for ~200k. I was probably hasty and it'll wind up being the bargain bin sub-50k set but w/e, i like it. It looks like your nipples are poking through!

I can already tell it's going to be one of those refresh-gtn-all-day kind of days once the servers are back up. I need a cool gonk friend.



And hey, what's up with all the ninja looters in KP/EV HM lately? Maybe it's just a coincidence but in nearly every game someone wins a piece and bails now. It was especially bad last week with KP being the HM Op of the week. I also hope they fix the bug where certain Op bosses no longer face the tank. Almost every group has a bunch of people yelling at the tank "taunt ffs!!" when he (i) is (am) :(

I assume you mean the dualsabers which have a much more limited customer base.

I can't find anyone who'll even negotiate on the single saber.

On JC prices are a bit lower than on Harb I think. There was one single saber for 30 mil earlier. Might settle at 10-12.

MMO auction house listings are crazy, I've never understood them after years of warcraft and other games. I got a meditation hoverchair from one of the BSG packs they brought back for a week last month. After the packs were removed again, I saw the hoverchair listed on the GTN for 22 mil, and a bunch of stuff I wanted was 1-7 mil. So I posted mine up for 21.9. I then watched over a week as people went undercut crazy. Later that night there were ones up for 19 and 17. Then 15 and 12 the next day. 9 and 7 the day after that.

Around that time I broke 3 million on my sentinel just from grinding every quest ever on my way through the planets. I decided I'd rather keep my hoverchair if money is that relatively easy to come by.

The allegation is that it's a 50% shot of getting one on either item slot.

The bummer is that it counts on both slots you can totally flip the crate every single time if you get super unlucky. I had it happen on 4 out of 30 crates in a hypercrate. Some had none though to balance it out. Small sample size RNG sucks sometimes.

As Telex said, it's a possibility rather than something that always happens but people are understandably very angry that they could quite conceivably buy a hypercrate and get literally nothing from the actual pack itself from it. They need to tweak it because there's a lot of seriously angry people who have apparently been regularly buying hypercrates since they were introduced that've stopped buying stuff after they saw what was happening so if they don't change it it's very likely to start eating into their profits.

Since I had a lot of free spacebucks from my long hiatus from the game, I got two hypercrates.

I got exactly 30 chance cubes in one, and 28 in the other but I did not keep track of how many were double or none.

This is cool as long as either -

a) Only 4 count toward conquest bonus

b) Conquest bonus goes up to 125%

It will be lovely if you have to go from having 4 strongholds at 100% to get full bonus to 5 strongholds at 100%.
