  1. Also keep an eye on general chat for guilds looking for members
  2. Please take off the "title Exsuna uses", it makes him look stupid running around with it on.
  3. Provide them the code for those fixes and they can get them done quicker. You are not asking for them to be fixed but fixed in an unrealistic time-frame. The developers do not want to leave these issues unresolved. They not only prioritize bugs, but even high priorty bugs must be recreated, fixed (not easy), and tested. The more game systems affected (and I would think a warzone affects a lot) the more careful they have to be even if they can find a fix quickly to make sure there are not any unforseen side effects.
  4. Like you, there are likely many people out there that want to group up but like you are waiting for someone else to say something in general chat. The typical understanding is the first person to speak up is responsible for invites and recruiting more people. Many want to JOIN a group not START a group. If you are not adverse to creating the group and keep advertising (not spamming) your needs in chat, then speak up and start gathering others. I am usually one of those who will not start the group but since TOR groups are only 4 people and in many cases HEROIC 2, then it is not as difficult in games you need 6 or more to effectively do the instances so I am more likely to yell out in chat.
  5. Many MMOs have a reverse grace period when logging out to prevent an exploit. Your character may still exist in the game for up to a minute or more after you log out so if you are in a dangerous situation, a mob could spawn and kill you while logged out but this is only for a few minute at most. As far as logging on, due to lag, load times, etc it may be possible you are still logging in and a mob could start attacking. Expect to be in combat just in case.
  6. If the bar goes left to right, they are "casting" and the effect goes off at the end. Interupting this stops the affect from occuring. If the bar starts full and start shrinking, they are channeling an effect. Interupting it will not stop the entire affect but stop it from completing.
  7. Proc, some special abilities can not be activated by the player, there is a chance each "action" for the special ability to proc and activate. It could be as simple as a 10% change on each hit for the ability to proc. In general, a rotation is a series of attacks that goes well together, usually it takes into account some attacks have different cooldowns so by following the rotation, you maximize the number of attacks you make or combine special abilities. Each class and AC usualy has an ideal rotation. Some rotations are more complex like those that are priority based. a > b > c > d. Use ability 'a' when you can, if you cannot use ability 'b' and so on CC - Crowd Control, Stuns, holds, slows, etc. If your group is fighting 4 elite mobs and getting killed, being able to use Force Lift and Slice Droid to take two of the elite mobs out of the fight for 60 seconds makes it much easier.
  8. I agree with the above poster. One of you could go Jedi Counsilor. You get two different story lines, the counsilor makes a great healer/dps class. You both start on same planet, you both help each other with their class quests without haveing to do the same Jedi Knight quest twice.
  9. Just like in WOW, hitting escape brings up a small menu, one of those allows you to change settings. Under the video settings find the option to implement shadows and turn that off. As far as the mouse settings, explore them some more, I had to set them to real low numbers like 6% to start getting the performance I needed. I also notice sometime when I enter/leave a large building, my hard drive goes crazy loading the new environment. I find it easier to wait the 30+ seconds for the hard drive to complete and get smooth movement than spending the next few minutes with poor jerky movement before the hard drive catches up. It is still early so there are plenty of performance problems that will be worked out.
  10. Basically stopped here. When DPS and tanks talk like this they are comiserating with each other to take the sting out of the loss not blaming the healer. Then again, when I hear the following, I KNOW the healer is to blame... - Bio Break - Hang on, got to let the dog out - Quick Soda Run Oh and the worse insult EVAH... - Wait the healer needs to regenerate force
  11. You have never found yourself a few hundred credits short and went out to kill a few things for THE SOLE PURPOSE of farming those few hundred credits?
  12. Derivative to the age old question on why is Killing with Force Lightning = Dark Side Killing by throwning a rock = Light Side It all comes down to what is doing the killing. The Force Lightning is not electricity but pure force. You are killing WITH the force. The throwing of things is does not kill them with the force. Same for your questions, they still die but do you kill or does something else kill them.
  13. - Please Post Responsibly - try to keep it reasonable and on topic DANG IT. I was going to troll but now I cannot. Wish you had left these off your post.
  14. The problem seen by the OP is not "good for him". He does not see this as a person sitting at his computer all day waiting to click a blue glowy. He sees it as a bot program running all day while the 'player' is at work, outside (horrors), watching ****, or some other activity that is not playing the game. If they were sitting there all day at the keyboard just waiting to click, more power to them. It is the bots that the post is about. And as far as them farming credits, we all do it. I do it at all levels because the expense of abilities, crew skills, and vehicles is quite high. Nothing wrong with credit farming but there is a problem with credit selling. And to the OP, it is unlikely you found a BOT. The investigation of BOTs and the banning therof is not a fast process. Either it was a BOT and other people reporting him for the past month got him banned or it was a credit farmer that was not logged on or moved to another location. It was probably an actual player,
  15. Bad speller here.... it is most likely homoginization. When you have FTL travel like they do in Star Wars and have populated a majority of the galaxy... Why create a new doodad when you can get one from a nearby planet, spiral arm, across the entire galaxy cheaper and faster? When entire planets specialize a particular technology and can ship and sell it cheaply... it is hard to displace them. An galactic wide government also looking to protect certain planets, systems, companies makes competition tough. The galaxy is beyond revolutionary increases in technology but now most likely advances by very small evolutionary advances.
  16. If you create a character that is balanced in their outlook, then the benefit of being neutral is you are choosing answers based on how you want to play your character and not in a manner to farm one more number (Light/Dark) for negligable advantage.
  17. In theory, each class has a healing/dps specs or a tank/dps spec. I suppose some may have all three. There is also melee and ranged tanks. It is not easy to look at them and say, becuase they are a stealth class, they are DPS. I understand the Jedi Shadow has a good tank spec. So you could end up with some weird combinations Trooper - Healer Jedi Shadow - Tank Jedi Consular - DPS Smuggler - DPS In general I anounce what I am "Scoundrel (L15 healer) looking to join a group"
  18. and we want to open doors, pick up objects, and give wedgies without anyone knowing we are there. Interactions with the environment should not be visible when I am stealthed. I actually have to use strategy or different mechanics and not face-roll things.
  19. Or maybe because they are FUN? And just because you do not find them engaging unless you are interacting with other people, does not mean I am incapable of enjoying a game.
  20. Mine is. My subscription is tied to fun. If this game stops being fun, I will be out of here so fast I will not even have time to post a "Im leaving" post. So far there is no risk of this happening
  21. Also LFG - Looking for group, they do not want to start/lead a group so looking for someone to invite them to a group LFM - Looking for more, someone is starting or has started a group and wants to invite people to his group
