What crosses you over to KOTFE and locks out the class story though? Being 60?

There's a few.

One of the Sage specs uses mind bullets instead of rocks so that's okay.

Isn't the option to have her kill or spare her master? I think it's pretty obvious when it comes up.

Aphrodite
Jun 27, 2006

Well on the bright side in a week and a half she probably disappears from your storyline.

Spoiler text still looks different when you mouse over it.

Planetary quests are the linked main story on each planet anyway, they're far from side quests.

Am I better off getting back into this before the expansion drops, or should I just wait until all of the nice quality of life stuff is in?

I mean I already have my main parked at 60 but I'd like to have a Republic character, too, and playing alts is always fun.

If you already have the expansions and are willing to sub, the 12x XP is good to get classes up you haven't yet.

I said come in! posted:

I am behind an expansion pack, will the new one coming out include previous expansions?

Yeah, but it doesn't currently so you can only get up to 55.

I think the saving grace of the smuggler is that the smuggler's jokes and wisecracks are actually funny (for a video game), or at the very least, amusing. I haven't played the male smuggler, but having done all eight classes I'd say the voice actor for the female smuggler probably does the best out of all of the voice actresses at actually giving her lines character. The Agent still has the best story, but I'd say the smuggler story has the best written character dialogue.

My list would go Agent, Smuggler, Warrior, Inquisitor, Bounty Hunter, Knight, Consular, Trooper.

The Smuggler is the best character, closely followed by the Inquisitor. Their stories are kind of week but still fun to play because they're great.

Can you remove a current authenticator via the website, anyone know? I hate calling support.

Yes, if you have the email the account was setup on still.

Login on the website without putting in a security key and the next page has a Lost link you can click.


Edit: oh, you're not the guy who lost it. Yeah, you can.

Thankfully there is always the pistol from BBA that looks like a sawed off shotgun to take care of that oversight. I really wish the shotgun and vibroknife were visible all the time, though.

Might be the same model, but I just got this ridiculous thing after the first 2 SoR dungeons

Yeah, I picked the huge deagle-looking thing because that's the second-most iconic piece of gun that omar carries around. It'll do!

Unrelated: is there any eyepatch headgear? I could swear I've seen it, but I can't find it from googling or searching the GTN.

Yeah, needs Contraband Resale rep though so that's why you wouldn't find it on the AH.

Aphrodite
Jun 27, 2006

Yeah, the certificates might take you a bit longer if you've never bought crates but the rep's not bad.

Aphrodite
Jun 27, 2006

Well, not half. It depends on mission locations. Sometimes the planetary quest and the class quest are just 2 doors in the same hallway.

Aphrodite
Jun 27, 2006

Play the slots until you get Outsider rank with Contraband Resale Corp. You can buy coins to play from the decoration NPC on the ship. The woman, not the droids.

You'll also need a cartel certificate. Those can come from the slots but it's super rare. You might have some if you've ever bought crates though.

The NPC to buy it from is in the Cartel market. It's the south elevator on Imperial Fleet. North on Republic I think. It's labeled on the map. There's a platform there with all of the cartel rep NPCs.

Aphrodite
Jun 27, 2006

Someone calculated the odds at less than a tenth of a percent from the slots, so yeah crates are your only option.

Aphrodite
Jun 27, 2006

All of them. Sometimes you get them instead of cartel rep items. They're not rare from packs, about 20% or so.

Aphrodite
Jun 27, 2006

Probably not. The early crate items aren't as good, I'd find one with decent items and go with that. It'll be super cheap getting the rep from the slots.

Aphrodite
Jun 27, 2006

Yes, Inquisitor/Consular have ranged specs.

Beniko -> Kenobi

While I don't know much about the expanded universe, I doubt there's an Anal Kenobi however.

I'm sure this has been answered before but when KoTFE drops will f2p players get the 6x bonus exp or will that remain a subscriber only perk still like the 12x xp is?

We don't know yet.

It hit double digits on Sunday.

My favourite is Hero of Tython. Everyone has saved Tython as part of SoR now.

Aphrodite
Jun 27, 2006

The gear comes from SoR prelude after. Makeb has the terminals that make you God.

Aphrodite
Jun 27, 2006

Remember it only lasts until 55 too, so if you're really crunching alts while it's running you can stop then.

teknologik posted:

Wait, are they doing the EXP boost where you only need to do story content to level right now? I did this pre-expansion but didn't make it to 50+ in time and quit. Is this still going on and if so for how long?

Until Tuesday, for subscribers.

Once KotFE launches they're changing things so you only need to do class story and planetary story (the Rakata stuff on Tatooine, the Civil War on Alderaan etc.) It's unclear right now if this is for everyone, or just subscribers.

Aphrodite

I'm clearly the one who referred him!

Aphrodite

The Makeb story gets you to 55 right now, and then some.

I'm not sure if it will do it at 6x though.

Kinda tangentially related to SWTOR, does anyone know of a reliable/safe authenticator than can be run from a desktop - not mobile?

You should be able to run it in Bluestacks. Bluestacks is an emulator for Android apps, but it doesn't simulate an entire phone so it's a bit simpler than other ones.

Like Medullah said the whole security thing is basically out the window this way, but it'll get you the vendor and coins just fine.

Here's an interesting one. It's a browser add-on/app.

Does anyone have a rough guess how much the Covert Energy set would set me back on JC? I want bare hands, drat it.

Chest - 4k
Boots - 75k
Gloves - 250k
Belt - 500k
Bracers - 2 million

The boots and gloves are their own separate 1 item sets though, so you don't need to buy them all to make -(infinite gloves)

:siren:With KOTFE launching next week, I'm running a contest:siren:

The Prize: An unlock token for the Togruta species! A 600cc or ~$1.3 million (on the GTN currently) value! Note that this unlock is account-wide!

The Rules:

1. Send an in-game mail to Xodiac with your SA name in it from the character you wish to enter into the contest.
2. Character must be a current member in good standing of TNG. By good standing, I mean you at least have the comment section on your character filled with your SA name*
3. Post a picture of your character in this thread showcasing your best outfit.
4. I'm going on the honor system here but please do not enter the contest if you already have this unlock. I'm not looking for people who will simply resell the token on the GTN. Sorry people who already have it :(
5. Only one entry per person.

I'll be choosing a winner at random on or near the 20th and mailing the token to them then.

Good luck!



*FYI if you don't have this, ask anyone with the rank of Major or above to fill it. If you're a Major, you can do it yourself. Those that don't have this entry filled have a greater chance to be guild kicked by Medullah on one of his drunken rampages :eng101:

Does Republic side count too?

Aphrodite
Jun 27, 2006

I mean for part 3. If people enter as an Imp but want to show a Republic costume.

I know you're choosing randomly anyway.
