thank you for all of the ad vice guys, i am definitely going to do more pvp, and look back at planets to make sure i didnt miss anything, for all of my other characters, i dont think i can, nor will i skip bonus missions, or avoid mobs. i hope this all works. =]

yeah, i tried that too, but the space missions have gotten really hard, i do need to do more pvp though.

thats what i thought too, so i went back to each planet that i was on, and looked around for more stuff to do, and i saw nothing, being an assassin, i snuck past a lot (and i mean A LOT) of enemies. do you thing i lost that much experience by simply not fighting them? and i am going to go back again to check to see if i missed anything anywhere, just to make sure that i am not freaking out over nothing.

i am going to give it a ten. it is a great great story line, but i havent seen much of the other ones, so i dont have much to compare it to

i am a level 38 assassin right now. i have gone through every planet that i need to and done all of the extra stuff on each planet that i saw, and did every mission i could find, besides the heroics and i still ended up being behind when i got to hoth. i started at hoth when i was a level 34. i have been able to get the class story done, but there are a few missions left by the starship graveyard that i am having a hard time with because i am supposed to be level 40 by the time i get there. also, i cant kill whats his face because i am not a high enough level. i have gone back to all of the planets now, and done as many of the heroic missions i could stand, and re traced my steps, but i am still two levels short! how did i dig myself this hole? how do i get out?

so, after realizing a few characters ago that almost nobody wants to team up with you and do heroic missions, or flashpoints, i decided to do a bit of an experiment. i leveled my current character up to level 33 before i started doing any flashpoints or heroic missions. i figured that with a higher level, i could go back, and just do them myself without needing a team. i am currently correct. i figured level 33 was a good place to start going back, because by this point, i had missed out on a lot of xp by not doing heroic missions, or flashpoints, and all of the drones that i was going up against were level 36... (i was mostly able to get this far by using the sith assassin and sneaking passed most enemies instead of fighting them) so i decided that i would try some flash points. i did look for a team for hammer station and found one person who was willing to play with me, but when we actually got into the mission, i found out that i did not even need that other person. those puny level 16 enemies could not even scratch my armor, let alone threaten to kill me. i didnt have to stop once to loath and regenerate my heath. after that, i could not find anyone to do the next mission, so i went by myself. i experienced the same effect. they could not touch me, and i was a beast. i havent tried much more than that, but i think if i go back and do the heroic missions, i will have the same result. IN SHORT in order to stay at the same level as your enemies, you NEED to do all of the flashpoints and the heroic missions. they provide valuable xp that you will miss later on in life. but, if you really dont feel like waiting around for a team, and dont mind a challenge, build up your level, and go back and do them by yourself. agree or disagree? discuss
