Wow, you picked this post to provide an unsolicited grammar lesson?

It appears to me to be designed to hail the shuttle, but yeah it's superficial at best.

One final bump to se if anyone has heard anything and then I'll let this one die. Maybe it's just wishful thinking on my part, but I swear I noticed mention of itemization changes on the current gear. Thanks in advance if anyone can provide insight.

Does anyonne have information on this? To be clear, I am asking if anyone has heard that they are changing the stats on current end-game gear mods (e.g. lowering crit chance and raising power on certain enhancements in battlemaster gear, or lowering accuracy accross the board, etc.).

I keep hearing/reading hints (in-game chat, forums, devlog, etc.) that in 1.2 they are going to reitemize some of the current endgame gear (Rakata, BM, Champion, etc.). However, search as I might, I cannot find any actual information on what these changes might be. Are they replacing accuracy with some other stat on the mods for existing gear, or when I see these references are they only referring to the fact that armoring mods will not be removable on set prieces? Any insight and links on this topic is greatly appreciated.

See above.

I am not asking Bioware for anything in this thread. I am merely seeking information that I have seen in the past but about which I cannot recall the exact details. Thus, I hoped someone on the forums would be helpful. But thanks for your predictable response. Thank you very much Kapro and Nitro for the information. This is actually news to my ears (eyes?), and I'm glad to learn this policy. I didn't think they'd respond to a ticket of this sort and glad to hear I am wrong. I asked this because I did the same thing as Kapro (bought Enforcer instead of Field Medic), but I was not going to petition Bioware to change any policies. I would have just lived with it due to the confirmation window if I hadn't recalled a dev post from about a month ago. Thanks again

Well, I'm not sure they ever did implement anything other than the confirmation window. I swear I remember a dev saying someplace that they were going to have a mechanic to undo an accidental purchase, but maybe I'm misremembering. I'm just trying to get the info and can't find it anywhere, so turned here for help.

I know we have confirmation windows now, but I was trying to recall what the devs implemented for undoing accidental purchases (if anything). I recall them stating that there was a way to do this, but I can't find it in the patch notes. Does anyone else remember? Thanks.

It definitely is coming and probably in 1.2. I don't have time to track down the dev posts about it, but I promise they have explicitely stated in several places they are going to allow you to place the armoring mods from set gear into other orange gear (along with the mods/enhancements, if you like) and keep the set bonuses. I.e. set bonuses will travel with the armoring mods, not the base item.

This happens for everyone at some point with diplo. BW is definitely aware of it and I reported it several times back when I was leveling. You can take solace knowing that when you get to 10,000 rep it cleans up the math automatically capping you at 10k (i.e. the decimals go away). Granted for you, you'll need to get to 10,600 darkside to offset those lightside points, but that isn't hard. I was 10k way before level 50.

I'm just guessing, but probably on Coruscant in the Senate Plaza. Go underground and all the way to the back by the bank on the left side of the Plaza (the side with the cantina). When you approach your bank vault (cargo hold, whatever), look in the nook on your immediate left. There is a social vendor in there. If that one is selling Social 1 items, then I suggest looking in the cantina on Taris if you are Republic. It is in a building to to the left as you exit the spaceport in the first area/town. If you are Imperial, I'm not sure where the cantina on Balmorra is located, but it should be there.

You can't have a companion out in Warzones or Ilum, so this is not a very important consideration. That said, for world PvP before level 50, go with Risha. Corso and the Wookie aren't very useful (can't force enemy players to attack them) and you are a healer, so Guss isn't that helpful. You'll want to maximize the dps you are doing on the enemy player. I prefer Risha (ranged) to Akaavi (melee), but that's just me. (This assumes that Risha is your best geared companion; if Corso, Akaavi, etc. vastly outgear her, then go with them).

Also think about which gear slots you can easily equip with lvl 50 quality items right away, so that you can spend your comms on something else first. For me this included implants, ear, relic, etc, (and by luck I had a really good crafted hat). You can fill these slots with expertise gear later. Even with the comms you saved up to buy bags, you will not be able to afford very many pieces right away, so it behooves you to maximize your gear across the board (i.e. don't buy an implant with comms if you can craft one that is very good (but with PvE stats), where your boots will still be filled with lvl 42 mods because you ran out of comms to spend today). As a note, I believe that the champion relic has expertise while the centurian does not. Thus, I sprung for the cmap relic as my first piece since the centurian one didn't upgrade me enough. I spent the centurian tokens on something else.

I will also note that having him pick Shadow will allow you both to stealth and thus skip content together, etc. From experience playing with a Guardian, I occassionally wished he could just stealth with me rather than us having to clear a bunch of mobs we had no interest in killing just to get from point A to point B.
