I like doing them. Then again I'm part of the older MMO generation that was used to a lot of group content. I do them whenever I can, but it seems most people don't want to do them. I think the reward they give are great though. The rewards are usually huge upgrades over what I had before and not to mention they give a big chunk of EXP.

Because the Empire is cool. Doing Black Talon, when Satele shows up on the holo projector I thought, "Look out everyone, the Jedi are coming to bore us to death" and you end up fighting some lame Jedi padawan later on. On the other side, in the Esseles, I couldn't help but feel how screwed we were up against Grand Moff Kilran (Not to mention most of the Republic dialogue is just lame, so your options are "We're so screwed! or We will never back down, we fight for the light and democracy!") and later on fight a pretty ****** Sith apprentice who wipes out a squad of soldiers with ease. I primarily play Empire but the Republic is so cliche and bland I haven't been able to force myself past 11. On my agent, most options are 1) [Responsible Imperial]. 2) [Greedy Bastard]. or 3) [No BS Renegade] On my trooper (at least so far) we have 1) [sIR, YES SIR] 2. [Yeah, sure] or 3) [Awwww but I don't wanna!]

Something similar to WoW's BC/Early WotLK tool. You enter yourself as LFG for specific dungeons and people who are LFG or LFM can see you in there. From there on its up to the players to talk to the other people on the list and invite them and get to the dungeon. Nothing is automatic, nothing is cross-server, nothing teleports you to the place. That's what I would like.

Anyone know?

Congrats. Everyone else in this thread either didn't read the whole OP or are jealous. You act like you don't care, yet you insult him. Obviously you do care.

Good info. Would be nice if we could see the set bonuses without shelling out for it though.

I have a question about the set bonuses before I start buying gear. If I bought a Champion's Field Tech Headpiece, and a Champion's Enforcer Chestpiece, would I get the set bonus, or do the main pieces have to be of the same collection? I.E. All 5 pieces have to be Field Tech in order to get the set bonuses. Just asking because I prefer the itemization for other pieces of different collections, so I don't know if I should go for what's itemized the best or go for set bonuses. That brings up another question, are the set bonuses worth it if you DO require the same collection of gear?

Anyone know?

Is there any way to obtain this currently? First thought was to check the Fleet Commendation vendor, but he only sells the regular pilot gear which is kinda ugly.

Still it seems like a small tweak that should be addressed as soon as they can. It puts me at ease if its only a few small percentages though. At least I will probably be forced to wear PvP gear in 3 levels anyways, so whenever I make an alt it will probably be addressed by then.

So at level 50 its only 3%? If so then that's a relief. I love my Imperial Trooper armor but I always have this feeling in the back of my head that the ~800 armor I'm missing out on is why I take so much damage without a tank companion.

This is something that's been bugging me and when I brought it up in general chat people were up in arms against me about it. I think that the armor from social ranks and the CE vendor should scale with the best armor type of your class. For example, a Juggernaut wearing it should make it count as heavy armor and give the appropriate armor that a piece of heavy armor would get from rating. For a Sorcerer it should count as light armor, because that is the best they can wear. As of right now they all count as light armor no matter the class and give the armor bonuses based on rating that a piece of light armor would give. Does anyone else agree? I don't see what is wrong with my suggestion, but according to a lot of people on my server I'm an idiot who doesn't understand how it works.

Please make social armor and gear from the CE vendor/security key vendor scale with your class's armor type. Or does it, but the tooltip doesn't show it properly like many things? That is all.
