  1. So for example, that means we just need to do [WEEKLY] Searching for Allies or [WEEKLY] Veteran Flashpoints, not both? Or does it mean we only need to fulfill the flashpoints/pvp/heroics category, but only one of them?
  2. Dunno about percentages, but there's enough of us still around that I see one or two a week, either with the crystal or the Founder title. The usage of either tends to drop off at higher levels though as many don't know about the additional power ranks for the crystal being available or the fact that they're costly. As far as the title goes, there's just so many better ones; who wants to be ", Founder" when "Lord" is available?
  3. Oh I honestly think I could become good at this, if I put the effort in. Previously I was one of the top pvp players in another MMORPG as part of a premade, well-coordinated group. It was just means to an end however. Two ends spesifically; helping two of the other group members achieve the highest pvp rank and getting myself a sweet armour set, since armour sets were few and far between, good-looking ones doubly so. I do not enjoy pvp, in fact I despise it, and the only thing that made me enjoy it somewhat back then was doing it with a full group of friends. If I wanted to get good at it, or even play it, Stradlin posted some good advice on the first page of the thread and I'd work from there. But I have no reason to want to play it, or become good at it. Starfighter as an objective is random and not something that requires my commitment. I'm just going to leave it alone and occasionally catch up on lost progress with some of the cartel coins I get through Seasons.
  4. I figured out near the end how to speed up. Early on I got an inactivity warning because it took me so long to reach the action. Yesterday I rerolled a starfighter match, only for it to be replaced by unranked pvp. Urgh. Was luckier today though; rerolled a starfighter and got Outer Rim enemies. But yeah, most likely I won't be jumping into starfighter again.
  5. So apparently the only way to get the GS companion on multiple characters is to buy the unlock for 10CCs (or 5 now, during the unlock sale), I'm okay with that. Are any of the other current rewards from Seasons also only obtainable via unlock? If so, which ones? I'd like to buy them while they're discounted; every coin saved adds up.
  6. Glad to hear I'm not alone in this, though I didn't think I would be. I did end up queuing for a match today too. Did better this time around, had 3 kills, bunch of assists and only 3 deaths. Kept two of our satelites under our control. But I won't be doing it again. So while I appreciate your advice Stradlin, honestly, I probably won't be making use of it. Though who knows. If I've stubbornly managed to stay out of pvp all these years in spite of the Contacts icon flashing to make me go fight for Pierce, then I can manage to stubbornly stay out of space pvp too. Guess I'll just use my security key cartel coins to pay for the Seasons points I miss out on.
  7. And "you're welcome" to the other team that gets easy kills. So yesterday one of my Galactic Seasons objectives was to play unranked pvp. No. No, I'm not going to do that, not a chance. The obvious course of action was to reroll it... and I got "Complete any Starfighter match"... Being tired of only half my Seasons objectives being counted either due to bugs or undesirable content, I queued for the match. At least one day a week I'd like to finish both objectives. Since I'm rubbish at this particular part of the game, I have barely played it at all and this was the first time in who knows how long. I think I had 1 kill maybe and like 7 deaths. That probably made it as enjoyable for my team as it was for me. In other words, not at all. And what happens today? The same stupid thing. Not sure if I should punish myself and the other players by queuing again, or stick to just punishing myself by having half my Seasons done today; or maybe even none, if the other objective refuses to count progress again. sigh
  8. I was sure it never ever would after all these years. It's beautiful. Maybe in another couple years they can fix the hood of Saber Marshal's (and other robes that use the same one) robes too, which was broken with 1.2. Ah well. One can dream.
  9. The heads are misaligned; spesifically, the lips miss their target. Noticed with JK kissing the matriarch chick on Tython.
  10. I think the creepy grin is a homage to Kit Fisto in episode 2. He does a really goofy "smile" there after knocking down some droids in the arena.
  11. Well the one thing Tython does better than Korriban is lighting. And for aliens, which usually have more interesting skin tones, that can matter a lot I think. The lighting in the character editor is rarely representative of what the character looks like most of the time while playing.
  12. That explains it. I noticed I'm not getting my end-of-combat cooldown reset either.
  13. We paid for it back when it was new content too. We paid for several months in fact. Was it worth it? That's subjective. Personally I don't care about the two missions, but I do like having 55 back as a team member.
  14. My nautolan already is overworked. While the republican forces on Coruscant and Taris sat on their hands, he had to slaughter hundreds of rakghouls and criminals all on his own. And don't even get me started on Tython with the so-called "masters" there, lazy good-for-nothings. And the pay for all this is ludicrous, he should easily have earned an army's worth of annual salary, but nope. Going to Nar Shaddaa next to do everyone else's job there too. Could use a vacation, honestly.
  15. It seems crafting isn't meant to be a casual part of the game anymore. For people doing mass production or gaming the GTN I'm sure 1,5M is nothing. For people who play laid-back and casually like me, it's actually quite a lot. I consider it a tremendous payday if I manage to auction off the Revan Reborn boots for 2,2M... though if I also level up Archaeology and Treasure Hunting that windfall is mostly gone.
  16. I didn't know this was coming, so to me it was a very pleasant surprise. Discovered it by accident and within a minute I had 1,5 more storage bays available. I would prefer it wasn't legacy-wide, or that there were separate ones available for character and legacy, but it's still very nice. I understand people's complaint about no way of sorting even though I don't miss it myself.
  17. Mine was in legacy storage, not command stash overflow.
  18. I didn't fiddle long with the female nautolan character creation since I mainly play male characters, though I did see a couple of decent faces. It seems it's easier to make ugly nautolans than okay or good-looking ones. That said, I'm quite happy with how mine turned out. I swear though, some of the screenshots they showed prior to release had some colours we don't get, spesifically an oranger pattern comes to mind.
  19. Nah. New character. That is, assuming I can make a cool one at all. I think it's bad enough that subscribers have to pay real money for appearance changes, so full race change is definitely too pricey. You level up in this game if you sneeze anyway, so I'll always make a new rather than change an existing character.
  20. Technically, "until" could mean it would go away at midnight (00:00:00) on the 21st, which it didn't. It lasted until the daily CM refresh, which shouldn't be surprising. They did actually announce the spesific timing on facebook and twitter. While that's a bit lame, it also shouldn't be come as a surprise as they've always preferred that stupid thing to their own website and forums. The fact they announce things here at all now is a huge step forwards for them.
  21. Looking forward to some new content, though not necessarily tomorrow. I'll make a nautolan, but I'll give the actual expansion a few patches before playing it so I don't get my story and companions messed up.
  22. Ended up grabbing Unrelenting Terror, Shadow Disciple and Humble Hero sets. Still got a couple K coins left, was considering Xoxaan's but nah. Best to leave some coins for any unexpected unlocks in the future, never know what will pop up now there's no Dulfy to tell us. Apparently I'm at 23% of armour sets collected.
  23. Usually I buy off of the GTN, since I refuse to buy coins and thus am limited to my 600 a month. Have to spend those on unlocks. And preferably I unlock things when it's 50% off, but since that only happens a few times a year, it's not always feasible.
  24. I have all the ones I really want. There's always that niggling little "maybe that would be cool" but I honestly have more than I need and something for pretty much every concept I think of. Though eh... think I'll actually log in and finally get that set with the Darth Vader helmet. Several times I've thought "if only that wasn't so damn expensive" but now I don't actually have an excuse; it's discounted, it's discounted to unlock and I actually have a surplus of a few thousand coins.
