[Explain RE to me like I'm Stupid please!]

I would recommend starting here

This thread told me everything I needed to know about RE'ing

[Artificing - Whats the point? Any crafting really, whats the point?]

I craft because I like to. (and because I'm going against my nature and being optimistic that crafting will get fixed)

 

So if you like to craft, do it. one day it will get better (hopefully)

[Failed Diplomatic mission but returned 1.600976562 dark side points]

maybe they will include an option in there with hide your helmet to "Round my LS/DS points"

[Couple of questions for hardcore lore pros.]

http://starwars.wikia.com/wiki/Form_VII:_Juyo_/_Vaapad

 

While Vaapad was created by Mace Windu, Juyo is very similar and has been around for thousands of years. It may be an option instead of Vaapad.

 

Also, it sounds like the character you're working on would fit perfectly in the New Republic as opposed to the old.

[About RP Servers and endgame content...]

I play on an RP server, and generally don't RP. I like to think that it is encouraged, but not required. Mainly I like the RP server because you don't get as many of the hardcore, L33T d00ds running around with stupid names and attitudes. The people try to at least keep up an RP atmosphere.

 

 

I can't speak for everyone on the RP servers, this is just my opinion on it.

["True Neutral"?]

I was thinking, what about that old guy in the Wookie-world Forest in KOTOR?

 

He was sorta neutral I guess?

 

Just what I was about to add. Jolee Bindo I think it was.

[Underworld Trading & the Light]

And remember, it isnt YOU going into the dark seedy underworld to get stuff. It's your companion. Now, my Jedi is only level 10 and I don't know their companions, but I assume there's at LEAST one shady smuggler type. That makes plenty of sense. Like Obi-wan in episode II, when he asked Dex for information about that dart thing. Kinda.

 

THIS, exactly. It's what I was thinking as soon as I read the OP.

[Ord Mantell - Codex Entries]

I'm having the same problems. Still need the three species and two creatures. I've even killed some of the animals, still no luck. Also, how are you supposed to meet the two bounty hunters to get the codex as a trooper?

 

EDIT: went back and checked. specifically what I am missing is:

 

Bestiary - Gapillian Grazer, Razoronn

Species - Kel Dor, Mon Cal, Rodian

[Wal-Mart CE Pre-Orders?]

Oddly, the second time they billed for the order the charge was about $10 less than what my original order was. Probably downgraded the shipping.

 

same thing happened to me. the difference is what they billed when they shipped the pre-order code.
