If anyone goes out shopping and notices the follow Clothing attachments, can you grab them for me please? I'll reimburse when we meet.

Def vs Knockdown, Def (Down), Dizzy, Stun, Intimidate, Melee Defense and Survey (+25 on this one).

Any /way to a decent 4 socket BE clothing vendor would be great also since I've not found a good one yet.

Cheers!

Theres a couple merchants that sell 4 socket clothing by Mos Bloodfin. I'll check it out tonight as I can't remember if they were stocked.

Its 98% complete Pre-CU SWG, some very small niggly bits dont work like TEF and city maintenance ticks. But it includes some of the good CU/NGE additions such as NGE housing/vehicles, combat balances, and they added their own stuff like some new planets and custom dungeons

Sounds like I can live the dream of being a crafter without having a horribly steep economy to keep me down. Maybe I'll do swords/ranger again if resource gathering is needed. Do we have a ranger yet?

Levarris, are carbines actually worth it now? And how long do corpses stay on the ground before getting despawned? I had a rifleman/ranger on Basilisk and it was rough getting hides because the corpse despawn rate is so fast. By the time I ran from my sniping range at 60m to the corpse, it would depop.

If in doubt, throw more men at it!
I also want to know how decent carbines are in the combat balances as well as how good are bounty hunters and commandos with these balance changes specifically?

Carbines used to get a bad-rap pre-CU and I really like them, are they worth using now?

For carbines, unless they address the elephants in the room of high HAM cost (which was "I can kill myself faster than you can kill me!" bad, even with buffs) and lack of AP3, they'll still suck.

Same for Pistoleers (except the HAM costs) having no AP3. Pistoleer was mostly broken though.

Not much you can do without class specific head shot to attack mind (unless you went up their respective Bounty Hunter trees). Though I wish they would simply take away targeting of the mind from all classes

Commando, to a certain degree, was hampered by lack of AP3. Only the consumable heavy weapons had AP3 and they missed probably 90 percent of the time. I can understand the flamethrower not being AP3 because lets face it - it's just fire. But it needed it for balance purposes.

Now that I think about it, pretty much everyone lacked AP3 except...riflemen, swordsmen, and maaaaybe pikemen? TK VK's were AP2 and kinetic, none of the fencer weapons went above AP2 (though it could be argued the stun baton didn't need it and the class had good enough defenses to justify it).

That also doesn't take into consideration the lack of damage types (blast, stun, etc)

Got it figured out. I assume the "auto-registration" feature just means I choose a username and password when I get to the normal login box, and if that username isn't taken, it'll continue with character creation? Because that's what I did.

Gotta read up on stat migration first before I send myself off to one of the starter planets. Unfortunately had to stop before a houseguest arrived.

Step 1: Pick Zabrak
Step 2: Reduce all health and action plus their subs to mins, max out mind and subs. You'll have some left over. I always choose to put it in the health and action mains.

Isn't zabrak a specific armour class like wookie/itho? Good luck finding armour if so. Human all the way!

No, that was trandoshan (the tall lizard dudes). Zabbies get to use all the armors.

Zabs are great because of their equalization skill that spreads out their HAM in a pinch. And something else, but I can't remember what. Humans are the best balanced HAM wise and especially if you go imperial (no faction penalties), but they're so boring.

Only wookies and those dirty ithorians have armor restrictions. Ithorian armors are either identical or very close to one of the "normal" armor types as far as materials needed to produce them. Wookie armor takes a completely different set of resources that is a pain to deal with.

Trandos aren't restricted by armor type but they can't wear boots and gloves because their race never discovered nail clippers.

Wookie brawlers are kind of awesome. Believe they get a bonus to...warcry? Low mind stats, though.

E: is there a list somewhere that details the changes to combat or stats that the bloodfin devs (you, levarris?) have made from the swgemu guys? If y'all made a balance pass to timers and damage modifiers, added AP3 to additional classes beyond what had them live (or has them on the 'main' emu), defensive stat adjustments to certain classes, I would legit contribute some $$$ to the cause beyond what I plan on tossing your way.
