I've done the legacy questline many times. The monotony of it doesn't bother me, it's that I'm having issues soloing mobs 1v1 as a TKA and have to use Center of Being and many self-heals to get through any 1vX situations, whereas the same quest in NGE is just hit button kill dude in two shots.

I don't have any armor or anything and just now got the knuckler, so maybe I'm going about it the wrong way. I'll try something like Carbineer or Rifleman and see if it's better.

Don't you find that the xp levels wildly outlevel you for the questline? I did it as TKM and whilst it was a bit of a slog to begin with, once you get a decent weapon you start slicing through it to the point where the only time I was getting xp was on quest hand ins. It made grinding medical xp a nightmare.

I never thought I could enjoy SWG if it wasn't pre-cu, but this Restoration 3 server actually kind of nails it. CU mixed with NGE QoL makes for an almost modern feeling game and is kind of fun to play.

The CU actually made the game a lot better in live imo, but it was done so ham-fistedly and with no warning from SOE that a lot of people didn't bother to stick around and find out. A lot of the rabbling came from established players who were pissed that their server best armor and resources were turned to poo poo overnight. I'd also wager a lot of players conflate the NGE and CU in their memories because the CU was only around for a few months and it was a long rear end time ago.

Anyone still playing on R3? Started there a week or so ago, and aside from some friction points (CH/BE issues mainly), it's been pretty fun.

I was and played quite a bit, but until phase 1 rolls around there's not much to keep my logging in much at the moment.

Fair - the group I play with is starting to get frustrated at the amount of broken stuff as well, coupled with the 2 character limit.

I think it's probably a good idea to avoid burning out at such an early stage too. Once the Mustafar and Jedi unlocks go live I'll be less hesitant to put some hours into it.

Anyone have info on swg restoration? It's the first server I've seen that doesn't require game discs and I've always wanted to try swg, but they didn't really have a good new player guide and I had no idea what was going on, just that han solo wanted me to make a speeder then a mayor wanted me to look at bugs and poo poo haha.

Resto is based on a period of SWG that only lasted for a couple of months. It's absolutely my favourite period of the game, but even the live game at that time was very broken. I'd start with the various theme parks (rebel, imperial, jabba, nym) if you're looking for (bare minimum) storyline content. Then it's worth doing the Hero of Tattooine questline which is from memory is easily soloable post-CU and worth it for the self-rez artifact. Beyond that the Jedi grind is far more accessible than it is in a lot of pre-CU environments and pretty regimented in terms of 'do x to get y.'

Resto also has Jump to Lightspeed implementation so you can work your way through the various pilot factions and squadrons. It's repetitive and grindy but if you're playing SWG and enjoying it that should be right up your street :v:

Can we just get a new Star Wars MMO set in the Skywalker era. I miss SWG atmosphere so much but the game is getting so dated.

That would be the dream. The Disney trilogy was basically the cinematic NGE though; watch us take this enormous runny poo poo all over that thing you loved whilst telling you to enjoy the new shiny that is vaguely reminiscent of that thing you once liked.
