4th highest of any class on any server. At 5471 EHPS I'd be right between: 3. Ernik Commando T3-M4 Europe Ambassadors 5488.58 and 4. Azeril Sith Sorcerer The Harbinger US - 5398.06

I agree with you on that. It seems easier for me to put up high parses on a Commando healer in a 16m than before, but I still need to pay attention to stacks, move, cleanse, avoid droids, etc. And if you check my parse, my highest heal is Kolto Bomb, not probe. That is about timing and placing the bomb to heal as many people as possible at the right time. And if anyone could do it, they would. 4th highest parse according to Torparse is not something everyone has done.

I was asking to see if a progression spot would give me a shot at Brontes NiM this week. I lost my spot with Undercon. Without repeating the story and getting the thread deleted again, stuff came up (including dealing my father dying) and instead of accepting that I was distracted, the guild declared me a bad player and kicked me. FWIW, Undercon got Brontes 16m NiM tonight. They're the only ones on the server. I probably won't get my shot. But I did do NiM DF tonight, and on the Nefra kill I had what appears to be the 4th highest parse ever on any server by anyone on that fight. 6743 HPS. 5471 EHPS. http://www.torparse.com/a/690077/1/0/Heals+Given I must be terrible like they say. The request still stands. I'd love a shot at Brontes this week with someone to validate myself.

Sentinel - Proktor Commando - Gambuhl I should be free this weekend.

I've got 4/5 kills on NiM DF. I've got a Sentinel and a Commando Healer min/maxxed and NiM ready. I've got a Gunslinger and a Shadow Tank that are full 78 set pieces, but need relics and not fully min/maxxed.

I've only been raiding Pub side. But I have a 55 Sniper that shares Legacy gear with my Gunslinger. My Sentinel and my Commando Healer are my mains, but my Sniper isn't terribly geared (4 78 set pieces, the nice implants, just needs relics and a few better enhancements to be min/maxed). I know the NiM fights have have 4/5 cleared on 16m NiM.

I've been running with Undercon who's been getting all the server first 16m NiM kills, but I don't have a spot lately. My Sentinel is min/maxed 78s with an 81 head piece. I haven't been able to get him into runs to get 81s. My Commando Healer has been my main lately, and even that has only been subbing when they were short a healer. I have killed Nef'ra, Draxus, Grob'thok and Corrupter Zero on 16m NiM. I've parsed 6000+ HPS in actual NiM boss fights in the right circumstance (able to AoE heal lots of people, able to keep trauma probe up on lots of people, only Commando in the group that night, on 16m, etc). When the other Commando Healer is present and I'm not trauma probing as many people, I parse lower. But my heals are very legit. He is min/maxed 78s with an 81 Implant and Headpiece. I really want to kill Brontes before 2.8 drops with the Nightmare Buff. At this point I don't care if it is 8m or 16m. I do also have a Gunslinger in 78s (not fully min/maxxed) and a Shadow Tank (not fully min/maxxed). I've got a Sniper that shares legacy gear with the Gunslinger, but don't have relics, so slightly worse gear if there was an Imp side NiM group recruiting. If you can get me relics on that toon in a DP HM run, he'd be NiM ready.

I'm pub side and will be hopping in queue in a few minutes and will be in queue a good chunk of tonight. I'll be in queue later in the evening Tue/Wed/Thur (other commitments in early evening) and most of this weekend.

I never did PvP much before, but the ranked rewards motivated me to give it a shot. I ran my healer through PvP the past few weeks, and got fully augmented Conqueror gear, and maxed my normal and ranked coms for 2.7 coming out. But I've sat in queue over and hour plus every day for a week, and only had 1 ranked pop. I won that ranked match. But it doesn't look like I'm going to get my 10 matches for a ranking unless we can get some more people to queue. I have a few people interested, but they each say they don't want to sit hours in queue because they think no one else is doing it. If we can get a few more to hop in queue and it pops, that will encourage others.

Mix of GSF/land where two squads of fighters have to protect a capital ship. The capital ship can be destroyed by ship's fire, or by a boarding party bypassing defenses and taking into internal systems on the ship. I get the scale of GSF makes this difficult would load screens, but load screens and multiple maps could make this possible. Rakghoul Infection. You take turns trying to infect others while the other team attempts to survive without infection. I also really like NickM's suggestion of a mode with turrets and tanks. I was going to suggest something similar. Huttball is already a form of CTF, but with only one flag. What about traditional CTF with both teams having a flag? And a second map for every existing WZ like the new Huttball map.

Every MMO adds new tiers of gear from time to time. If you're going to cancel your sub to an MMO because they're adding a new tier, prepare to never play any MMO ever again.

Shroud of the Avatar is a spiritual successor to both the single player Ultima games and Ultima Online being created by Richard Garriott, Starr Long and Tracy Hickman. https://www.shroudoftheavatar.com This is a unique game of Selective Multiplayer, and not a traditional MMO. You can play single player offline, cheat and never see anyone. You can be single player with your game saved online. You can be multiplayer online with friends only (like classic Baldur's Gate multiplayer), or a persistent online multiplayer with everyone. You choose the experience you want. Even if you play persistent online, there is no monthly subscription fee. Like past Ultimas and UO, the game will have player housing, guild wars, PvP with consequences, immersive world, tons and tons of crafting, rich story, etc. They had a successful Kickstarter and the game is in development. Those that pledged early got special Early Founder rewards. And there is a system to gift pledges to other players. They discovered a bug where pledges from existing Early Founders were conferring Early Founder status to those receiving the pledge. Rather than take those rewards away, they're allowing people to gift these pledges for another 52 days and treating it as a promotion. If you missed the initial campaign and you're interested, I can help you get Early Founder rewards. Early Founder pricing is also cheaper. For $40, you can get the game with bonus items, and alpha/beta access. If you're interested, send me a PM or email me at enderandrew <at> gmail <dot> com.

I just cleared this again last night. I grabbed Raptus' crystal with no problem and killed the council. Were you doing 8m or 16m? SM or HM?

I see that the devs have acknowledged broken achievements for level 50 daily areas. What about operations? These have been broken for myself and many players I've spoken to since 2.0 dropped. I've filed bug reports, and so have other players I've spoken to. I'm missing achievements for: EV 16m SM on two of the five bosses despite a full clear. EV 8m NiM on two of the five bosses despite a full clear EV 16m NiM on two of the five bosses despite a full clear KP 8m SM on one of the five bosses despite a full clear EC 8m NiM on two of the four bosses despite a full clear TFB 16m HM on three of the five bosses despite a full clear DF 8m SM on four of the five bosses despite a full clear Several of these ops I've run multiple times with clears, never once receiving the achievements. On some of them, it will show in 8m and 16m NiM that I beat the boss and I got that achievement, but I didn't get the generic "Surviving Boss X" NiM achievement as well. That at least proves the Op achievements are broken. I'll filed a request to see if a CS agent can grant missing achievements and I was told they can't, despite other players saying CS agents have done it for them. I've filed multiple bug reports, but you never hear back on these. I know it isn't uncommon to inspect a player's Op achievements to determine that player's ability to run a HM/NiM raid. Missing so many achievements makes me look bad as a player. 8 months and countless bug reports filed later, I haven't seen any acknowledgement from Bioware that this a known issue.

The Dread Masters failed to defeat the Emperor. I did not.

EricMusco, I'd personally like to see the pets that were given out as the F2P cross-promotion given to subscribers as well. I certainly don't mind that these were available in a cross-promotion to new players. But I never understand why Bioware would go out of their way to explicitly exclude subscribers and not allow them to get these pets. Wouldn't it have made more sense if the pets were given to all players (new or current subscribers) who also played EA's other F2P games? A subscriber appreciation program might be a good opportunity to rectify such an oversight.

What gets me is that now there will be achievements requiring codex entries that are unobtainable, making the achievements also unobtainable. I think all of these are unobtainable on the Republic side currently: Alderaan - Killik - Species Alderaan - Paladin of House Organa - Titles Alderaan - Champion of House Thul - Titles Alderaan - The Elysium - Locations Alderaan - Bouris Ulgo - Persons of Note Belsavis - Master of the Burning Way - Titles Belsavis - HK-51 - Persons of Note Coruscant - Sullustan - Species Corellia - Liberator of Corellia - Titles Corellia - The First Son - Persons of Note (Jedi Consular only) Corellia - Drall - Species Corellia - Selonian - Species Corellia - The Outer Rim Jedi Forces - Organizations (bugged for Jedi Knight) Hoth - Ice Wars Veteran - Titles Hoth - Caught Between Two Foes - Lore Hoth - The White Maw Pirates - Organizations Hoth - The Chiss Ascendancy - Organizations Hoth - Chiss - Species Hoth - Ortolan - Species Hoth - Talz - Species Ilum - Kath Hound - Bestiary Ilum - Asharl Panther - Bestiary Ilum - Bogwing - Bestiary Ilum - Master Jaeric Kaedan - Persons of Note Nar Shaddaa - Shadow Hunter - Titles Nar Shaddaa - Scourge of the Underworld - Titles Nar Shaddaa - Gen'Dai - Species Nar Shaddaa - Gundark - Bestiary Ord Mantell - Kel Dor - Species Ord Mantell - Mon Calamari - Species Ord Mantell - Cathar - Species Ord Mantell - Split by Rebellion - Lore Ord Mantell - Ruled by Corruption - Lore Ord Mantell - Underworld Influences - Lore Ord Mantell - Separatist Movement - Organizations (currently only obtainable during the Trooper/Smuggler quest 'Unsafe Safe Houses’, unobtainable for Jedi Knight/Consular) Quesh - The Three Families - Lore Quesh - Venom Drinker - Titles Taris - Cathar Settlers - Organizations Taris - Mandalorian Bane - Titles Tatooine - SIS Operative - Titles Tatooine - History of Tatooine - Lore Tatooine - Sand Rot - Lore (Jedi Consular only) Tython - Terentatek - Bestiary Voss - Ambassador of the Republic - Titles Voss - Gormak - Species Voss - Voss - Species Voss - Jokull - Persons of Note

He said subscribers have to pay separately for other features, which isn't true. You're saying F2P players have to pay for additional features. This game cost $200 million dollars initially to develop, and has had additional development costs since launch. It amazes me that F2P players can play to 50 for free and then complain that they don't get more for free. I think they should say that to the Bioware developers who were laid off when the game lost subscribers. Tell those out of work developers that you don't think they should get paid, and that everything should be free.

Since Makeb is in closed beta only with no knowledge leaking out, no one knows. Makeb either is difficulty adjusted for new 50s in green gear (rated 106 perhaps) or the new lowest tier of 50 PvE gear, Black Hole (146). There is a huge gap there. If 50s can't play Makeb until they get Black Hole gear, then they are forced to do hardmode flashpoints with perhaps less than Tionese gear. I'm in the minority, but I really think option 2 makes more sense, to allow new 50s to get some Basic coms for at least a few pieces of Black Hole gear.

If someone selected Need for their companion, I'd tell that player not to do it again. If they did it a second time, I'd vote to kick them from the group and ignore them to never group with them again. Other players actual characters come first before outfitting companions.

You state EVERYTHING costs cartel coins for subscribers, and I'd say that is completely untrue. There is no feature currently that subscribers have to pay for with cartel coins. There is ONE SINGULAR feature coming in the feature that is cosmetic only that would require cartel coins, and likely you'll be able to get it with creds as well in the GTN. Please adjust your reality distortion field.

At launch, you didn't get anything for hitting 50. But MMOs have to try and enable new players to catch up to older players, so eventually new 50s started getting free Tionese and PvP gear. With 2.0 dropping, there won't be a Tionese vendor anymore, nor Tionese gear. The new lowest level 50 gear will be Black Hole, and supposedly level 50 daily missions are being adjusted in difficulty. I've seen two schools of thought on this. 1. New 50s won't get anything anymore. In fact, almost every player I've spoken to is convinced of this. 2. New 50s will get enough of the new Basic coms to have perhaps a half set of Black Hole gear. There is still incentive at this point for them to get Basic coms to finish their set of Black Hole gear, but they won't be completely overwhelmed by level 50 HM FPs. With these double-xp weekends, I'm wondering if I should hit 50 now and take Tionese coms on my alts, or stop at 49 and ping 50 after 2.0 drops. It would be nice to know how Bioware intends to handle new 50s.

I would be willing to PayPal someone in EU the funds for one of these cards if they will email me the code. And I will be willing or obtain a North America code for you in return when Best Buy and GameStop eventually get their cards.

This would certainly help other Legacy characters get items and make it worthwhile to continue to do Gree events.
