The story was good. I think the major problem people had was that they stole our companion and said they would be returning in major way and they didn't only a few of the companions return in the actual story and the rest came in this lack luster alert system.

I would visited one of the creator website like https://swtorista.com/articles/the-sith-warrior/ they can provide with in-depth details on how to build your class. There many good website and guides out there but this is one of the ones i used.

Just because people disagree with what they are doing is not complaining. People have the right to voice their decent about how the direction of the game is going. The changes they're making are not the hot and butter issue that is wrong with the combat system of this game. The system itself is the *PROBLEM* All these changes are Band-Aid to a broken system. I'm Sorry but these changes are F GRADE. There was a time when the community held these Developers to the Fire and held them accountable. But let's be real tho. When the last time the CREW Skill System seen any love? Same old interface and system since day 1 When the last time GSF seen any love? When the last time Upraising seen any Love? 3 added Playable races in 12 year this game been out? This is Star Wars and it unacceptable SWG had more playable races. I'm not to bash the game I've been playing since Alpha testing. I want a better Star Wars game is all and not these lack luster changes. These developer has beaten and bash the Healer and tank Community that they had to add heal pod in FP because THEY destroyed the healing and tank class so much that no one wants to even play them any more. Again, This is just one man opinion and I'm not saying You're wrong at all I do agree with a lot you said in your post. I'm just saying there much more major issue than what being presented is all.

Queue? its what you do to get into a WZ or FP

Yes, I mean I rather them say nothing then make that disgusting post they just made about adding it to season. Everyone knows why they decided to kill GSF is because they wanted that Squadron to do well.... wait... let me think oh yeah that game failed hard. The only reason why we got GSF is because of the backlash it got for that flying on rails system they added to the game. Just like they killed Open world PVP they should do the same with GSF and stop providing false hope when they know they can't touch it due to Squadron's being release.

You're never going to get rid of Premade because the whole purpose of playing a MMO is to play with your friends. You gotta stop blaming Bioware this was a Dev decision. They took away Rank PVP because the regular PVP community was upset they couldn't participate in the rewards. So they listen to people complain and whine and so what they do they got rid of the system in general and put the elite players and group in with the causal players. You first need to fix problems in step's 1. Que Problems 2. Stat/Gear Problem (Personal, I think that PVE stats should not personal be brought into PVP) When they took away PVP Expertise Rating. This is when PVP started having problems In my opinion. For those who are not older timers like me basically all your stats were condense into Expertise rating. This was the best time during pvp. 3. Map Bugs - They are working on these but just too slow for my liking. GSF I've already said my peace on that on other post. Shame on them is all I say.

Look You and I both know how this going to go. You been here since 2012. You already know how many sniper buff and debuff there has been. I'm happy that you're able to use it in PVE Raid that good. So it buff you for PVE which will unbalance the class in PVP and then you know what going to happen they are going to nerf it once again. Being here since 2008 myself all these class changes (Nerfs and Buff) Come from PVP data and how loud the PVP community is. I'm going to sit back and watch you be happy for about 2-3 month and then become very sad again because it will get nerf again. This revamp the dev's call are the same thing they did to Focus Guardians back in the day or Combat Sentinels. You can never have balance in this game until they separate PVP stats from PVE Stats so enjoy using that single target tactical for short time before he come on here and write a new post on how it going to get nerf. They are obviously not listening. There a much bigger issue with this game than buff stealth scan/ Renaming skills / Buffing useless tactical's / Economy changes only hurt poor people and those players who are living mission to mission. We going to have to setup a Go fund me plan for those players. I'm happy they are buffing your tactical enjoy it for 3 months

Premade is not the problem with Solo or WZ Que. The problem is the same problem since they added Arena to PVP. They haven't fix the que problem. NO one want to Que to face a 2v4 or even 1v4 system or WZ when the other team has 8 and your team has 4 people. This is the main problem PERIOD

@JackieKo Don't add something you guys haven't updated or even added any development content since it has came out. This is not going to get your off the hook for ignoring the GSF community for that past 5 years. This whole SWTOR team should be ashamed. When was the last ship added to GSF? When was the last map added to GSF? When are you going to fix the bug for GSF? Get real you don't care about GSF and added to the PVP track is not going to get you off the hook. You want to know how many medals should count..

Do the changes to combat styles create any friction in your rotation? Is so, can you try to identify the pain points? Yes, You increase damage but not buff tanking or healing so people get 1 or 2 shot. Great balance.!!! Does your combat style still feel fun after these changes? Nope, Game going in the wrong direction Do you still feel your combat style is competitive in various game modes after these changes? Nope, might as well take healers and tank out of game. Since we only get DPS changes and increase! [Mercenary / Commando] Does the redesign of the Random Charge Legendary (now called “Overcharged Cells”) have a positive, negative or neutral effect on your rotation? Why or why not? Nope, no effect Is there any other general feedback you would like to share? Please listen to your community. I know you didn't really have any decision making in the combat styles but the skills you're trying to buff do not make any difference what so ever because there is no use for the skills like Stealth scan. I'm sorry the other two skill in that path are so much better to use than that skill than trying to lay down a scan that easily avoid when stealth.

Holds up to what? You can't compare WOW to SWTOR Stop that! WOW was release in 2004 and SWTOR was released in 2011. Totally different era of gaming and graphic's. I understand that some people gave up on expecting more from the Development team. However, I just hold them accountable. They have yet delivered on their long lost promise of bringing back speech bubbles to the game. (For those who didn't play beta and Launch of the game, YES we had Speech bubbles in the game) If they actually spend the money on moving away from that terrible HERO Engine (Which we complain about during Pre Alpha testing) to actually gaming Engine like Unreal 4 or 5 we could have a actual better game. (Sorry I got off topic there) No we don't we armor sets that clip though or even disappear in cut scene or after combat that make you re-equip them just for them to reappear again. (aka blaster holsters) We have a world that shake for no reason been like that since launch. 3 playable Races added in 12 years. Yeah get real

@Shabir_Dhillon Who are you listening too? You're clearly out of sync from the actual player base. The player base is clearly saying we don't want this crap and you still keep pushing this stuff at us. Great job at listening to your community. WE DON'T EVEN USE THOSE USELESS TACTICAL'S STOP IT ALREADY!!!!!!!!

Quick and Easy way to get something fix is to record the issue and blast it on their Social media sites. Like twitter and reddit. One things Dev's hate is bad publicity. Why do you think we get all these lack luster changes. They don't really watch these forums. Or you should have someone from the community team responding to post. These forums they can control and lock or even delete but Social media site they have no control over. Get enough support on the issue and it will be fixed.

The stream was very lackluster and disappointing. When you have a stream and you don't have a Q&A section at the end what the point. I would wish they would go back to the old format when we got 2 FP and 1 OP during the PVE content release along with the Main story Progression. I know that some of the community started playing the game at different times. and opinions will differ. However, You can't recycle old gear that was already in the base core game like the<Voss Gear set> and call it new armor set. Just because you put a new name on the gear doesn't make it a NEW gearset. Content Updates should be something to get excited about and calling 1 FP and small added on VOSS zone is not enough to be called content. The only good thing was that they are moving away from FP being apart of the main story.

Esseles need to be redesigned. Like take out some of the cutscenes like Iron-fist that a completely wasted scene. Like the redesigned the intro scene. The whole game need a Graphical Update 2011 graphic need to move to 2023.

You're all have good points R-4 does need to be address and they should've addressed and also they should've been expecting that topic to come up it literally what they get paid to do. Nobody should be silence not sure why that happen. We all have the same goal of making this the best Star Wars MMO. I completely agree. I think 7.3 content update is Rated D grade and we deserve better. Game been out for 12 years and it has had it UP's and Down's. I remember the day when after the content been shared there was Q&A session and the Dev actually interacted with the community. The content has become Stale and storylines have dragged on way to long. Malgus Storyline is old and not attractive. The only good thing is that they are moving away from that storyline FP Content. Some of their best FP has nothing to do with the main story such as Red Reaper and Keon under siege and lost island. let's not even talk about the Combat changes that should've never let the discussion room. I've do have a big problem with the reskin of old item from the core game and then on stream calling them new Armor set. Stop doing that you lose credibility. This game need a Overhaul it feels dated and that were the focus should be.

Just remove it or redesign the FP. I mean you need to go back to the base core game update those encounters. I like those two FP but it really need to be redone to correlate with today gaming.

The Dev have a goldmine on their hands and they just don't do anything with it. 12 years and we still can't travel in space freely. The devs continue to push out Stale Content and has lost all imagination. Everything they do is stuff that has been Reskin or rename nothing new. Literally they call something New and just a reskin from core base game with new name. I wish the dev would find that inspiration again.

I agree that why I said they need some love as well. There are much bigger issue with Class changes than timing of abilities. If they want the leveling experience to be better they need to tone down the EXP gain. Example by the time you reach the end of ACT 1 you're about level 50. BACK in the day you would've been 34.

Let's be honest , I think a direction of COMBAT SYSTEM would've been better than this OUT OF SYNC with the Player base changes that was posted. You can't continue to put Band Aid's on a already broken system. State of Combat hasn't change in 12 Years. You take skills away and put them into combat tree's no real change. But let's break down what you posted shall we: Adjusted timing of some ability grants to smooth out the leveling experience - What % of us are leveling? That not the majority of your player base. Don't get me wrong the new players do need some love but your focus should not be here yet. Stealth Scan - Who even uses this ability? No one taking this when there better options in the tree. Like why is this even a focus when there other skill that need your attention. No changes but a renamed skill? No changes? So you think healing is in a good place? As I was writing this I was like let's be constructive but it really hard when you put out stuff like this. This team continue to disregard healers classes we get no changes but rename skill and wasted upgrade to tactical that no one even uses. You're so out of sync with the game. So let's get this straight you focus on renames but skills like bubble and cleanse don't even work as intended. Just give you example: Player 1 (Sage) Gets Plasmatize by Player 2 (Vanguard). Sage use cleanse ( Wait skill doesn't work still being burned) Sage bubbles (Bubble break instantly due to how much damage DPS do now. Sage Dies (Wait Plasmatize still active on respawn ) Burn while you wait to get out the gate. This is just one example there are so many more that are just as broken. Combat system need a Overhaul not band aid fixes that don't even matter. Like I've been playing this game for 12 Years now and if you look at the combat from Day 1 and look at combat today = SAME Stale animations Where is the imagination? This is Star Wars for god sake. Why haven't there been a new class introduce yet in 12 years? If you need inspiration just pick of a D20 book.

The Dev's a completely out of SYNC with the player base. Please just remove GSF from the game. There no reason to keep this activity in the game when it hasn't seen no love from the development team since the launch of the system. When this System came out you had such a goldmine and did nothing with it. Like you could've added Space PVE Content (FP/Raid/OPS). This system is now a old book with spiderwebs and dust all over it. Do the community a favor and 86 it like you did with Rank PVP. Don't get me wrong I love GSF and big part of the community does as well but the dev would rather continue a tired and stale storyline with Malgus.

What do you dislike about how the GTN currently functions? You Can't relist things until it back in your mailbox. Process need to be fix. We should just be able to resell directly from the GTN instead of going to mail box and filling out inventory up to just resell. Is there anything you wish you could do on the GTN that you cannot do currently? We should just be able to resell directly from the GTN instead of going to mail box and filling out inventory up to just resell. What kinds of information do you use to decide when to make a purchase? If you could have more information what would you want? Who has the lowest price. Okay, Let's talk about how we can fix the game.. First GTN Overhaul (Good Idea) It's hasn't change since early access. However, What really ruining the game is the Cartel Market items. There no reason to spend money in the game. Adding taxes not gonna hurt me in any way it will only punish the "LITTLE GUY" (New Player Base) My Suggestion: Overhaul Crafting Professions - Give us a reason to spend money on Mats or items in game that I can't buy with real money. CTM Overhaul - Give Schematic for cosmetic items instead of armor sets. Let's us craft the items and sell them. This will not only give crafters something to do but also give us a reason to spend money on Mats. Tax - 8% is too low need to be more between 10% -15 % per items.

I like that idea of all these changes. If you really want to stop the inflation you really need to address the GTN pricing. You need to go to a flat 25% non-fundable tax. Example: Sell item for ($350,000,000 ) Then you're tax 25% (87,500,000) this will stop people from abusing the GTN to Credit trade. This will also allow new players to participate in the GTN trading process as well.

Juggernaut play pretty much the same but the only change i think might need to be revise is where the placement of skills are on the new tree. Tanking doesn't feel the same not sure what missing but i think it the damage it feels like it take much longer to kill things. Also, I'm not sure if this was done on purpose or mistake but is there a reason why Force choke is not a lvl 61 skill and Force Push level 51? These skills are core skill from the core game. I think maybe revisiting when we get our skill back might be much better

Thank you for getting this fix for us
