There is a PTS forum for these kind of suggestions. Next.... im not even sure what you are talking about? You can have it visible and you can customize them how you want. You've been playing on the PTS for a week you say?

Have you checked out PTS??? It is possible to move the armoring on old gear. However the set bonus does not move with it. You should update your OP/title to just clarify its the set bonus. It bothers me if they dont fix it.... but in the long run its not a big deal.

Are you 100% sure. BC it looks like it is intended to work on PTS... besides the fact its bugged. Equip a piece of rakata, and a piece of orange with the rakata armoring mod. The green set text shows that the 2piece requirement is satisfied. But like I said it seems its not 100% working or visible yet. I mean its in testing for a reason right? Im just wondering where you are getting your info before all the sky are fallen posts start... Edit: they just need to fix the stat and text visibility part.

Champion Bags have Centurion Comms and a chance at a Champ Gear Token. I dont understand what the problem is. It makes perfect sense. They obviously want gear progression. Centurion gear is entry level PvP gear.. and they let you get a random chance at a piece of Champion gear. Then rank 50 you can openly buy the Champ comms to replace existing cent pieces. I dont see a problem

You need to reread everything and not take one thing out of context. Everything is staying the same. Only change he is talking about is that ORANGE gear can now be crit crafted. Meaning.... You can get an orange chest piece etc with an augment slot. Therefore you still need to raid for the chest. Then you can transfer the mods to the orange. I dont understand what there is to complain about? This helps both crafters and raiders who dont want to look like everyone else. He never says anything about the gear pieces you listed in your OP.

Copied and pasted from the Community Q & A this past Friday. BTW this is not the first post from a dev on the subject. *Aurozia: Will there be a dual specialization system in the future? Will there be a possibility of changing advance classes as well? Daniel Erickson: We have no plans for switching advanced classes - which we see as fundamentally different class designs- but dual spec is in the works and coming soon.*

Get your facts right before you post. IT has been stated many times by devs that they are in fact CLASSES. Honestly they probably would have been different classes from the start but then that would of meant more dev time because of class stories. You already have different and feasible rolls within each AC. (besides the pure DPS ones) Letting you change your advanced class at will would ruin replay value. The references above to WoW make perfect sense. I could see a one time change allowance perhaps. Somewhere in the mid level range. Having the ability to be a tank, a dps, or a healer in the press of a button... is that what you REALLY want? I want to see growth in the game and I feel that this change would just drop sub numbers over the long run. IMO anyway...

Dev Tracker is your friend

/yes - And I would hardly call it Game breaking LOL.

*golf clap*

Is there still the faction wide buff for pvp xp etc for controlling all objectives? I remember reading about it not sure if it actually made it in... I always thought that this was the incentive for it. However after reading your posts it has me worried Well Ill certainly find out when I eventually get to 50. Always take my time on a first char playthrough. It is hard to design incentives for defending however other than a global faction wide benefit of some sort. Individual comm etc for killing other players doesnt work either. Then it just turns into a fight club where people with numerous alts just go out there and bot there way into pvp glory.

Dont judge all the games later content on Hammer and Athis. They were added really late in the beta. There are still some good ones!

Well Im level 15 and I put more time in REAL LIFE in the last few days than you. Maybe I should be rewarded with no que either? I mean we pay the same price? If you cant tell Im being sarcastic. Your quote is the reason I hate 70% of Americans I come across these days. Im American BTW

Surround is great. Your pics look good. I just can't use it until BW let's me reposition ALL my UI to my center screen.

I agree UI is horrendous. Working out a rotation is simple due to fly text and watching health bars I understand your concern with macros. Maybe simple macros but I would not like to see the game turn out like Rift. Bunch of 3 button rotations.

The tutorial tooltips/codex explain the benefit affection has on crew skills.

I could be wrong. But didnt BW say that alot of these rare mats would be harvestable on Ilum or the Tat PvP area?

Re read the lead dev post. It got rid of all my worries. It all actually makes sense and I like their idea of the mod system than a plain old Atab. At end game the mod system would be far less useful with an A tab. I hope it can change your mind in time

Did you even read the announcement about the Item mod system? They want you to WORK at the look you want. NOT JUST HAVE IT. Safe to say there will be no A tab. At end game it kills the point of raiding for mods. You can look how you want. You just have to work at it. They said all gear you see while leveling is available in a fully moddable orange version. Only thing they need to sort out is set bonuses. At this point an A tab would just dumb the game down more.
