You will be able to purchase buffs for a considerable price after the first patch after 1.2 However there will be some drops that will benifit new alts. There will probably be added bonuses for maxing out your tree as well.

Screw the Dual Spec and do not go down the path of Dual AC. Play the game the way it was ment and developed to be played. You think these developers spent one night in a room with a couple of cold ones and decided "hey lets make a new mmo that is different from the rest and piss off everyone that ever played an mmo by creating a game that is completley different from all of them" Probably not. They probably looked at WoW and other successfull mmo's and made a decision as to what they liked didn't like and would like to see. I am sure that during testing and develpment these were questions that were raised and delt with time and time again. However since releasing the game to the general public, BIOWARE has had to rethink it's business decisions that it made early on for the development of this game. Yes the game has been buggy, but things like that happen and they are working to resolve them. I ask you this, have you the player tried to play within the mechanics of the game? It can be done and it is fun. One of the things that drew me to this game is the fact that the choices you made during game play were irrivocable and had rewards or consequenses based on your choice. In my mind that meant everything from the character creation to the skill tree, companion skills, to the conversational options. I wish they had implemented more choices ie: no I don't want T7 to join me, how about a different character (one of the Twileks from the camp for example) I hate the fact that many people compare this to WoW and threaten to go back to it. If you are going to go GO! You left that game for a reason. I look at Galaxies. I started to play that game when it originally came out. It was fun and exciting, and challenging to manage the skill tree. After a couple of months I could not play any more due to commitments. I went back 5 years later and the mechanics had changed so much, I barely recognized the game. Man did it suck. And where were all the little whiners that wanted the changes? no where. Last thing I want to see is SWTOR devolopers bow to the wim of these whiners just to have the game they want, then leave it in a pile of rubble that they made saying "Meh this is like all the rest, I don't want to play any more"

With the Legendary point system unknown to many these days, would it not be possible to create a new DS toon when/if marriage becomes a reality? This would allow you to create an "Offspring" with a combination of the two toons classes. This would allow new roles to emerge and keep SWTOR different from all the other MMO's out there. If you want a WoW or RIFT feel, play those games. This is STAR WARS. This is UNIQUE. Lets keep it that way. Like a wise man once said: "This is not K-mart. If you want K-mart service shop at K-mart. Is there anything else I can do for you? Thank you for calling Best-Buy"

Noemad, is there a scanner in your crit mission items? I don't have this skill, but some of the main quests that require you to scan require the use of a scanner that is provided.
