You're a ***** teenager , and they run away from you. There are lots of girl gamers , I know this to be so because when you get on vent or team speak or such you can hear a lot of female voices there. You also get hit with guild rules about no harrassing the ladies no matter what. Feel so alone all you like. This isn't a dating service, that isn't what they're offering here. I suggest going out of the house. Perhaps take a course at high school for french or spanish or something , or even painting. Anything where there are other people hanging around. Girls love languages and art. They're all great talkers. But mmo's ? pfft ! Wrong place to search.

Max deployable henchmen would be ... all of them. if you delay your class story a few levels because you're constantly pvp'ing ..well... guess you're going to be shy a few.

Do all the quests. Quests that are under the catagory of "Class" are the ones that will lead you by the nose through the entire game. But ... they tend to be high level quests, so you generally want to do them last, after you've leveled to the max the world provides. Tython is the Consular beginner world, and it's level 1-10 , so you should probably go directly to your class quests and finish them up. Coruscant is next , it's 10-16. Do not leave before 16 , because there's a level 16 elite you have to beat before you move on , so rushing through just leaves you under levelled and the elite will kick your delicate little behind around the block and back again ifyou're not the same level. And repeat as required. Taris is 16-20 , Nar Shaddaa is 20-24 , and check your map on your ship for the rest. (You get the ship at the end of coruscant)

There are five Teirs of LIght side or dark side. You earn points and gradually climb in these teirs. LIght side I requires 1000 light side points, LIght side II requires 2000 , etc There are some items out there with requirements. Required : Light Side II Required : Cannot be Dark Side I or higher etc. These items are darn good actually , better than regular stuff. Because "neutril charactars" (their score is between Light Side I and Dark Side I) pretty much get no special equipment at all, going neutril effectively will cripple your charactar by level 50. The best tactic is to go all the way light , or all the way dark , and not futz around in the middle. However ...you can make up light / dark side points with the mission skill , and with running flash points which are repeateable , and harvest points from them to over come a couple of bad decisions.

Does anyone have a chart or somethign that gives your minimum level , crafting skill , etc , before you can access the higher teirs in underworld trading ? I'm gonna guess the same chart applies to all mission skills.

Ok. social II by level 20 ... I think I can do that. 750 pts ... shouldn't be too hard.

forgot to ask...what social rank is required for the costume ? I know the pirate out fit on Taris is social IV so ....

ha ah ..you got you and Kira whereing matching dancing outfits ... !!

PS: for anyone who cares... I had my jedi knight put that fancy dress costume on from the sociel vender on Coruscant, so you can stick these social items on your companions.

Social vender ! Yes ! and not being puke green like the ones in the cantina in the old galactic market on Coruscant ? Bonus !

is it from the security key vender ? Or some other vender ?

A "Free Smart Phone" just sign up for 3 years and you must take a minimum in 65$ / month services for the whole three years ... ... is not free. Even if the smart phone does say 0$ on it. Hidden costs everywehre.

The security app is not free. It requires an expensive smart phone capable of running such applications. It requires a data plan on your phone. and then, SWTOR decides not to charge us for it true. But it isn't "free" , I cannot waltz down to the app store and just grab it.

Where can I find hte dancer costume ? I hear it's on Nar Shadaa ,unfortunately a wiki entry also says it's frmo the security vender (meaning you have to buy a security key thingy for your account before you can get it) I'm hoping it's available at the regular social vender or some such, but I"m too low level to check. does anyone know ?

The wow formula is 5 + 1/(10 levels) . I wonder if they copied it.

I wonder if thats an exploit. Run a charactar up to 8 to get a companion , hit the fleet , get skills, and constantly send him on gathering missions and sell the materials for profit on the GTN ? Is there a cap on how high you can level a skill before you have to acheive some minimum level to go higher ?

Blah blah ..don't feel like community is important ... Community is "Player" territory. You deal with other players , not really the Devs responsibility to hold your hand there. Cooperative play required blah blah blah .... you can level to 50 (theoretically, if you don't crash out repeatedly on Taris) soloing all the way up. I don't feel special..blah .blah ..blah ... the jedi knight , and the Consular , and the Trooper (gawd only knows what the smuggler is doing) are all off stopping super weapons from trashing the republic , and everyone is saying 'Only you can do this !' , and you don't feel special ? Quit space barring through all the conversations, that's all I can say.

Why are you still here if you are so unhappy ? Go away. Please. For those that didn't leave ... crashes on Taris and Balmorra take precedence over a few out of game forums , or some companion getting hung up and unable to proceed in it's story , or what not. There are people out there that literally cannot play the game , and you're taking a major kiniption fit over a trivial detail like a forum ? I think they have their priorities straight. And you dont.

You're not supposed to pay anything for them. You're supposed to wander the world and pick them up as they are lying around , free of charge. I know this because I am constantly tripping over them.

Being a crafting addict myself , after putting on several items in the GTN , it's quickly sorted out to Crafting now makes me money , instead of costs me money. Oh and the cost to list them ? You get htat back when the auction expires. All of it. The GTN only takes it's cut if you actually make a sale. Which is weird, coming from Wow, but a good enticement to let the auction run it's full lenght of time and give it a ch ance, rather than giving up after half an hour.

sorry , you can't sell purples for a million credits, we all just rolled our charactars and don't have the cash yet. Pluse the chinese prisoners forced to farm gold so their guards can sell it to us greedy westerners for real cash havn't had a chance to get operations up and running yet. PS: I sell plenty on the GTN. But hey , if my target market is a level 10 charactar , my price is going to be like 500 credits, not 5 million.

1... Can I Please ! be allowed to drag my companion commands onto my tool bar ? Even if only the "attack" and "passive" commands ? 2...Since we can't mail to the other faction , even if it's our own charactar , can we make that one of the early Legacy Powers ? Mailing to any of your charactars even if on the opposite faction ? 3... Seriously. Slash comamnds. Maybe not out right macro's , but a simple "/say Out Of Force Pts !" would be nice. 4... Seriously. Why can't I put macro's like /impatient , and /holocom , and /point , and stuff on my tool bar ? 5...Ok, this one might not be so simple. More than 4 tool bars please !

This is the part where you run 3 or 4 charactars up and trade stuff between each other. Wonder if mail works between imperial / republic ?

Consulars may be Tanks, Healers, or DPS (they have 4 dps tree's , actually ) If they go tank , they could probably use a healer friend. (Trooper, smuggler , and another counsiler, have healer trees) If they go healer, a tank would be nice (consuloar, jk , trooper) If they go dps , it's all up for grabs.

Keep Qyzen Fess in decent armor with a good weapon . put him in tank mode (his default), and be prepared to throw a lot of heals. You should be able to easily take out an elite of your own level with Qyzen tanking, and even a Champion Elite later on is not out of hte questio. Make sure you kill off the underlings first though. As a leveling spec with a group , you're the first invited to every flash point, so you could probably hop from one flash point to another all the way up and never do a regular quest after level 10.
