I'm going to echo most others here... THIS IS A HORRIBLE IDEA. You said you weren't taking anything away from us. Taking achievement points is taking away from us. Taking a title that I am currently USING and making it not usuable until you kill 2k mobs with a ship droid (post 4.0) is taking away from us. Just archive the achievement. Or add achievements for different levels of affection/influence instead of MAX (Like 5k, 10k, 20k whatever). OR just leave it completely alone. Post 4.0. people are still going to have companions, what prevents them from giving them gifts/quests/conversations and also achieving 10k affection(pre 60/KotFE)? And if none of that is an option, just give everyone the title. I'm using it right now on 3 of 16 characters. Why should I have to kill another TWO THOUSANDS ENEMIES (while level synced) to get back what I already have?

Great guide, thanks so much for posting it (it helped me quite a bit going from a pre-2.0 assassin to a post 2.0 powertech!) I do have a question however: Has there been any additional research or math/theory on set bonus versus armoring? Currently, for armoring, I'm using a campaign set (61) for the bonus, 72 in offhand and 72 in fifth slot (And a mix of 72's and 69's for all mods/enhancements - grinding dailies whenever I have time to earn the creds for bastion/bulwark 31's). So with that in mind - Would I be better swapping those armorings to 69's, waiting until I can get all 72's or just keeping the 61's? I don't do operations, so getting higher level set bonus is out unless they put them on com vendors or start dropping from HM FP (like the old tionese/columi). My guild and I mostly do a few 55 HM FP a week, but for a while now it's just been 3 of us and a companion so every bit of extra tanking power can be the difference between a win or loss, so appreciate any input on this!

I think this thread is ALREADY IN USE Seriously though - Didn't see anything in patch notes about it, and my test toon is 20 levels too low for dailies, interested in the answer to this myself
