Can you please elaborate on what the intended gear level is for story mode, please? I saw that Hard Mode is for folks in full campaign, but not the difficulty level of Story Mode. Thanks!

1. Threat meter of some type. I'd even take a simple name coloring with a dps/tank toggle. 2. Debuff/Buff customization. Is that DoT about to expire mine or the one of the other 4 sorcs in the raid? 3. Easier way to manage items across alts. Legacy bank tab would be killer.

Can you clarify that you mean Lost Island HARD MODE is balanced for TIONESE level players?? Are we playing the same game? I was with a guild-only group of players who are pretty decent in full or nearly full columi and we had a difficult time with the enrage timer on LR-5 in the few times we even got it down to 5-10%. Granted we didn't have the mechanics down perfectly, but I find that hard to swallow as we did really well those few instances yet we still wiped due to the enrage. We're not the most hardcore group of folks, but we have had significant trouble downing just that first boss, never mind the rest.

First to WoW's queue times: the battlegroup restriction was not what caused your dps queue times to go down, it was the perks they started throwing to tanks/healers that did that. More badges/satchels/etc. Second: to those who still don't agree with me, I don't think you understand human psychology. Most people don't like being responsible. Face it, healers and tanks get the brunt of the blame when a group wipes. Pugging as a tank will suck more often than not, and depending on how thick your skin is, you might even give up on it totally (I'm very close myself). The RATIO of tanks/healers to dps on every server is going to be very, very close. Sorry, but statistics don't lie. Again, cross server will not help queue times for highly desired content (i.e., level 50 HMs. planetary quests are almost useless to begin with, so why queue for it?). Something else that *will* help queue times? Dual spec. I would queue as a healer on my merc, but I'm primarily a RDPS for our guild op runs as we have enough healers.

I wonder how many of the people that are complaining about long queues have been trolling groups enough to get /ignored by most people who regularly use the tool. Personally, on my DPS char, my wait hasn't really been longer than a half hour at peak times (on Corellian Run). And for those clamoring for cross-server, understand that this does NOTHING to help queue times. NOTHING. The RATIO of tanks/healers to DPS is what matters for queues to pop, not the number of people queuing. Whether you have 10 people queuing as DPS that you are behind or 10000, you still need 10 or 10000 tank and healer combinations to also queue. The lone exception to that may be lower-level instances that not as many people will be doing, so having a larger population to pull from might mean shorter queues just because the number of instances being run will be low. Cross-server will NOT help level 50 HM queues *in* *the* *least*. Math is hard, y'know?

This is a problem both on republic and imperial... With the new megaservers, the competition for the daily items is very fierce and there is tons of griefing/stealing/drama going on. Please, please, please PLEASE increase the spawn rate of these things? I was able to kill 3 spawns of an NPC next to a box before it respawned.

... if the name on the destination server was taken by a player with an inactive subscription? It would have been fair to force the inactive subscriber to re-name (who may never come back to the game) and not the player moving the character, wouldn't it?

Hello, Because there are often times we don't want to hear the same story for the billionth time (i.e., daily quests), please add the functionality that if we shift-right click (or any other hot key), that we automatically skip all conversation. This will make it equivalent to "space bar spam". Obviously we'd get 0 affection and 0 alignment from our current companion when doing this (maybe have a warning that the conversation will result in alignment changes?). But just having the ability of one-click skipping quests would be highly desired. Thanks!
