I just finished chapter one for my Sith Inquisitor last night. That got weird in a hurry.

TLM3101 posted:Welcome to what is arguably the best story in the game, next to the Imperial Agent. The end of Act one is downright sedate compared to what you've got in store, so strap in and enjoy the ride! The Agent storyline was so good; I just wish I'd been able to finesse it so that I could have been a double-agent.

Thyrork posted:Also Lightsided Lady Sith Warrior is one of my fav's for twisting narratives and loving with expectations. Try it if you've yet to! Lightsided Sith Warrior is awesome for blowing Jedi minds. (I was so when the green Jedi from Belsavis sent me an e-mail afterwards talking about how weird it was to work together with me.) Light or dark, the Sith Inquisitor is such a snarky, sarcastic bastard. It's great. (Although Khem loses a point or two of respect for me just about every time I have a conversation. ) Thyrork posted:I preferred Freedom and being an ally of the empire without interference. Although I really wish "Save Imperial Intelligence" ending had survived from the beta. Ah well, at least SOR let me help shape sith intelligence. I had never really played a stealth class before, but after being a sneaking, backstabbing Agent for fifty-some levels, I completely understand why so many people enjoy it. Hell, just being able to skip almost every trash mob is so great. prefect fucked around with this message at 13:19 on Oct 7, 2015 |

I thought it was pretty cool to be carrying your own weird little United Nations/multispecies A-Team with you, but I had the same question. Maybe your ship had a big U-Haul trailer attached to the back that just didn't get displayed in-game.

Jan posted:No, they just arbitrarily decided that the expansion story changes the world so drastically that you shouldn't be able to go back to older chapters. Quite unlike the galaxy changing events of Shadows of Revan. But existing characters who haven't finished their stories yet; they aren't forced into the new area and blocked off from the old automatically? Please say "yes".

CobiWann posted:So let me make sure I have this right. From what people have said, it sounds like you can create new, level-1 characters of any class and go through the old planets. You just cross a threshold at level 60 where you accept one special quest and cross a five-year boundary with that character, who can no longer do the old quests.

How about spoiler talk about storylines in the game? I've had a few posts talking about cool/weird stuff I've run into as an Inquisitor, for example; should I not do that?

Fuzz posted:There's one that shows up in the BH storyline that wasn't so bad, either, but I can't remember his name. I feel like all of the Imperial stories have at least one chill Sith except for Agent, where they're all over the top fucktarded and ridiculous, mostly to highlight and emphasize the fact that the Sith are running the Empire into the ground. I remember liking Darth Lachris, but I think that might be because she gave my Agent smooches.

Medullah posted:She actually shows up in the Consular storyline too. Oh, I know. I've done my every-class-to-fifty work to get the special recognition once the expansion comes out. There's just so much that I have no clue about, since there have been two expansions since I last played. What I really want is a way to turn off the "quest available here" display by quest types. Don't show me the flashpoint/operation quest givers right now; I'm trying to figure out if there's a story quest I've overlooked. And yesterday I found something called a "Macrobinocular" quest? prefect fucked around with this message at 18:46 on Oct 13, 2015 |

Waldorf Sixpence posted:Macrobinocular and Seeker Droid are part of the RotHC expansion. They're side-stories that are worth doing at some point, but they don't reveal anything major to be honest. I was crushed when I noticed (during the last story quests on Makeb) that my 12x bonus had gone away. Fortunately, this was on one of my two OCD completionist characters, so doing side quests was not a problem. Actual question: according to this: "This expansion is unique in that, unlike the previous two expansions (Rise of the Hutt Cartel and Shadow of Revan), it is free to all subscribers. Knights of the Fallen Empire raises the level cap of characters to 65 along with introducing new moves for most classes along with a completely redesigned companion system. Once KOTFE goes live, all subscribers will gain access to both previous expansions for free." It sounds like I would have to buy Shadow of Revan to get above level 55, until two weeks from now, when I get access to it just for being a subscriber. Am I reading that right? (It's still tempting, dammit.)

Medullah posted:Correct. If you want to level to 60 before KOTFE drops, you have to buy Shadow of Revan. Don't do that. Just wait. Anybody else who's in my position (not having SoR unless you cough up twenty bucks): you can still do the prelude-to-Shadow of Revan flashpoints. And they let you solo them!

Aphrodite posted:The Makeb story gets you to 55 right now, and then some. I don't think it will do the trick at 6x. I was about 55 1/2 by the end, and I did all the non-heroic dailies and side quests I could find.

Medullah posted:IF you use a 25% XP boost and are in a guild with 10% XP bonus, you should hit 60 during Battle of Rishi if you're doing Rishi sidequests/bonus objectives, a bit later if you just do Rishi storyline. You get an XP bonus for being in a guild? I swear, sometimes I am dumber than a box of rocks.

Aphrodite posted:It just needs to be the Fleet idle stance to make 90% of people happy. Make it change to generic when you're in combat. Hey, hey, hey, it's useful in real combat: The key to truly mastering Soresu seemed to come from grasping the concepts and philosophy of the form rather than adhering to its tactics and maneuvers. While Kenobi displayed a strong preference for Soresu, he continued to apply elements of the relentlessly dogged Form I as well as the erratic strokes and acrobatics of Ataru. At one point just before the conclusion of the Clone Wars, Mace Windu acknowledged Obi-Wan Kenobi as "the master of Soresu."[5] ("Form I" is the default Jedi one.)

So I spent the weekend playing a sniper (because I wanted to see the storyline again, and originally did it as an operative) while trying to max out dark side points (because I almost never choose DS anything for any character). Even with diplomacy I haven't yet hit Dark IV, but I still feel a little sick. I don't know how people do this.

Hulk Smash! posted:It's the same story as they are both using the Inquisitor base story so yes. Yeah, that makes sense. The sniper uses a blaster pistol during cinematic scenes, even though he doesn't have one; it makes sense that all the evil lightning you need would be available to the assassin, even if it doesn't match an actual power.

Hulk Smash! posted:I kinda wanted a look reminiscent of Obi-Wan's armored look from the Clone Wars cartoon. That's a good look, but most Jedi robes have the belt going around the robe, so it looks like you're wearing half a skirt, instead of something more cape-like.

My account is flagged as a subscriber but when I hit 50 over the weekend and tried to fly to Makeb it said I needed to buy Rise of the Hutt Cartel. I'm not really in any hurry so I just rolled a new character, it's just annoying. I got a next-day response after asking them to undelete a character I had deleted three years ago.
