This is what my character looked like before 1.2. How I looked. Now... my choices are either... the headband look you see here... but my hair is gone. Or, I have a hood.

A Boss, He'd be an Boss. Boss characters get to break the rules.

Those are my best guesses.

Here's the best you're gonna get. From Wookieepedia: So far, no serious attempt has been made to give the galaxy an official or astronomical name. According to The Essential Atlas, the Nagai of Firefist refer to the main galaxy as "Skyriver" which it is the closest any official material has come to naming the Star Wars galaxy. We don't know however whether or how the galactic community name or refer to their own home galaxy (the way we refer to our galaxy as the "Milky Way").

"The Galaxy" (Far, Far Away, and a Long, Long time ago.)

5 points spent on a "tier" in a branch will unlock the next tier.

Go to Nar Shadda, it has a Bonus Series at the low 30s.

Sure... 1.2 COULD have been 1.0. But, then Launch would have been in April in that case.

Are these protecting turrets? If yes, then look for the Boxes next to it.

One Legacy. But, not "Forced" to use the name. (well, you can't have any other name though)

Questing. #1 Source of Credits.

NPCs get to break the rules. Kira, the Jedi Knight companion, uses all kinds of gear like a Jedi Shadow, but she fights like a Sith Warrior.

No. Probably Never. Race Changes have Never been in ANY MMO1. 1. If anyone can find an example of race change, feel free to post a source.

Well, yeah. That's the point, it should look like Star Wars.

Um... I was going to suggest Agent... but, you know that Smuggler IS a Mirror of Agent. But Agent is Definitely "Undermanned"
