Buy her a decent looking customizable and swap components... problem solved. But heck... it would be nice to have the option

Yes and it's the tanks job to take the damage in. So the healer should heal the tank. DPS should dps and not take damage (bosses aside)

maybe you got it mixed up with the +10 datacron?

You open the crewskill window (N hotkey I believe) and you press the button behind the companion you want to summon

Is it just me... or should you not have to heal the dpssers on trash at all... Tank should be able to hold aggro enough. dps should be carefull. If not... at their own peril. Really only during bossfights should the healer need to heal DPS. Sure... if you got a healer you know. Who you know can keep all topped off without problems during trash. Fine if you rely on it then for speed's sake. But clearly not as a default or in a pug

At least you can cc droids... a jugger cannot cc anything

No... the armor and all other stats not represented by the mods themselves are based on the lvl of the mods. So take a lvl 12 orange kit, cram the same items in it as the lvl38 one has... and they will be the same (in stats). Only variation is crafted customizable gear which can have augments for example. Making for higher total stats from the extra item in it.

That's easy to say... but if all you're friends are on that server... Besides... pretty much all are heavy/ full

Synthweaving has an extra edge as sith warrior from the nice companion bonus

OMG people... seriously stop whining. Does anyone know the % of preorders in first days compared to after that? It's logical that most pre-orders were in the first few days. so ofcourse those go slow. On another note... all those whining... beta stress test should have shown bla bla. What I noticed during stress test... was ppl camping quest objects with a timer. It was hard to finish some quests since too many ppl were doing them at the same time. so in my opinion the beta showed that having all start at the same time is not a good plan. And seriously... you were promised up to 5 days... we are currently 7 days from launchday... stop whining.

ofcourse I disapprove the caps and all.... but excellent point. The majority of all preorders were in the first few days. Once those are passed it should pick up speed. for now it's just a lot of whining while the original early acces date hasn't even been reached. For all we know everyone might be able to play the 15th

In WoW... alliance almost always grosly outnumber horde on servers... yet hordes mostly pwn alliance easily. Not that I think that will be the case here, but that aside. For most pvp it will just mean that you'll have longer queue's as empire. So not neccesarilly an imbalance.
