Aleth posted:They really need to add a cosmetic weapon slot if we're expected to use those crafted, non-customisable weapons. I see no reason why all weapons should not be customizable. Finding your perfect gun in its green rank 68 form and then spending the next three weeks searching for a 200+/orange version is just balls.

I don't remember if this is a server load problem or if it's something else, but has anyone else been getting a lot of unresponsiveness since the patch went live? I just get random pauses for a few seconds where the NPCs and I can't perform any actions. I think it's happened before in the history of the game, I just don't remember if it's because of server issues or something fundamentally broken by whatever new bugs they've introduced in major updates.

So I have fully aug'd out 208 PVP set gear on my operative and I'm wondering at what point should I start replacing that? GC has been...underwhelming a bit so far up to GC12 with no set pieces at all dropped, but I do have a bunch of blue and greens at 210-230 I'm sitting on. I'm guessing the 210 stuff isn't really an upgrade from what I have, but what about 230 stuff? If I remember right pre-5.0 non set 220s weren't considered that much of an improvement over the PVP set since they didn't have bonuses.

I've been having odd moments of that regardless of what my characters are up to or where they are. I've had it happen in my stronghold which I still have yet to pretty up while grinding out some crafting of all things. I do wonder if there's something up with the connection because my fiance's had it where it seems to drag with logging in to where he gets the pop up of 'connection issue' but soon as he clicks the okay to close out the pop, it logs him in fine.

Finished KOTET yesterday after spending about two full evenings on it. Came out far better than expected, I had thought that it was going to be more of the same with the KOTFE chapters, but I came out pretty satisfied with it. Some spoilerific thoughts... - First off, I'm really surprised with how many plotlines were tied up in this one. The continuation of the Sith Empire, the brief return of Saresh, Senya/Arcann/Vaylinn, and most surprising, the actual final death of the Sith Emperor. If SW:TOR would end tomorrow, I would actually be pretty satisfied with how the storyline ended. Was pretty surprised that they actually did go all the way with the player practically becoming emperor at the end. - I'm also glad that they were pretty upfront about what the Valkorion situation was. In KOTFE, I kinda got a sense that they were throwing out much of the Sith Emperor's storyline, but with the simple revelation that Valkorion existed prior to this and that the Sith Emperor took over his body much like he tried with the player at the end smoothed things out. I also got a sense that he was far more fallible than he usually showed himself to be. Didn't mind that either, his whole "You're but a gnat" spiel got a bit old. Add in the fact that the Emperor was pretty much just looking for a new host body and the player just so happened to be around might help play a role for why he picked him for non-force sensitive characters. Still, I think the whole storyline probably works best with a Jedi Knight character, with a Sith Warrior coming in close. - Was pretty bored with the droid planet. Thought that we were going to get a proper explanation about the Eternal Fleet, but I didn't quite get the gist of it... they were created by a race, destroyed their makers, then went on to destroy everything with wargames(?), and somehow Zakuul ended up in control of the Eternal Throne. Not sure what that was about. - Liked some of the new gameplay mechanics, they definitely tried to change things up for a bit. Didn't like the walker mechanics at all, that got boring really quick. Enjoyed the undercover party bit, but was grateful for the hint system so that it didn't drag out. I also really enjoyed the gauntlets, it was fun to have enemies coming up to me, for once. Some cool boss fights too, although I didn't really get the Light/Dark mechanic in the final fight with Valkorion. - Gonna play with the DvL mechanic in the upcoming days. I really like the idea of just gaining gear by simply playing the game, as well as this metagame of Light vs Dark. Still, I think I've only seen Light victories so far, with the Dark Side only getting to tier 2 once.

So there's a new ability for I believe Shadow tanks which reflects incoming damage. It works on the Master/Blaster fight and ignores Master's damage reduction. You can do about half of Master's health bar in the duration of one buff.

Not sure what that was about. Yeah the Eternal Fleet was sent out to test themselves and make themselves better every time they lost ala Doomsday from DC. The superior tech that resulted from apparently thousands of years of testing is that they're is just a whole bunch of them and they're piloted by droids. And these makers decided build a single different ship with a deus ex machina cannon for reasons. They also a built a separate droid (SCORPIO) for reasons who somehow ends up locked in a vault on Belsavis. Vitiate is a body-swapper (yawn) who took over Valkorian and built Zakuul from the ground up in less than one generation since Senya implies to realize Valkorian changed personality at some point. But Vitiate was definitely around when the Sith returned to Republic space and was still around to sign the truce and had Revan linked to his mind during all this. Also Vitatie's plans apparently completely 180'd at some point from consuming the whole galaxy to "nah I'd rather just conquer this one planet." Also it was never explained what the cocoon thing in the Dark Sanctuary in the Gravestone was. The whole story is a mess.

Just saw the expansion launched and I have the following questions 1. I missed subscribing in time to get all of the cool rewards, even though I had no reason not to, how dumb am I? 2. Is there still some sort of class storyline boost? I am level 55 but want to play the rest of the current content and maybe roll a alt. I kind of hated the old side quests but love the main class quests. Thanks

I kind of hated the old side quests but love the main class quests. Dangerous thing to say around here, friend. Class quests are "6x" the original xp rewards. Subscribing plus using the 25% boosters the game throws at you plus a few legacy xp boosts keeps things tolerable. The 2x event was great for just playing through stories, but gave way more than strictly necessary.

Also apparently Valkorian's bodies still age and/or degrade so was he planning to through this nonsense every ~25 years or what? Couldn't he just ask a true believer to willingly give it up?

Considering the fun I had with the Halloween contest with playing dressup and scouting for locations for a nice background, I'm very up for another contest especially now that I have all my characters except for the two rerolls I've been dragging on in the goon guilds I can play a lot of pretty princess dressup.

Lightning tunings look good and I keep meaning to search for them on the market, except I don't know if I'll be using my current weapon forever so it's kind of a waste. Unfortunately.

Fortunately you can extract them and move them to a different weapon if you want like any mod, they just don't unlock in collections. Also just finished KotET and I have to say I love that my Odessen throne room is right above the bar.

It depends on the weapon and crystal. I got a dark side tuning from a DvL box so since it was bound, I threw it on a saber with a purple blade and it looked underwhelming. But when I changed the crystal to a black/orange striated, the tuning actually pops out more. nonentity posted:
