The reward is available for every single character. You just have to meet the prerequisite to actually use it. The speeders you got as sub rewards, you werent able to use them until you reached a certain level and were able to purchase speeder piloting (or unlocked it via legacy), previously the black-purple crystals we got as sub rewards you had to reach level 10 to use those iirc. The Stronghold decorations we all received required you to actually purchase a stronghold in order to use them (unless you also had previously received Nar Shaddaa as a sub reward). Do the fact that all those things have a requirement that you have to meet make them any less rewards? No.. Every single one of your characters has the ability to get HK-55 as a subscriber reward, as long as you meet the requirements that were clearly laid out and readily available to everyone to see what they are. The fact that you refuse to meet those requirements is not biowares fault. It is your own.

Except they said from the very beginning exactly when you would get him, unlike with Nico. Its not Bioware's fault you dont know how to read

Parcel farming isnt even an issue anymore since you cant get them now. If that was their intent, this fix should have been implemented while the event was active or waited until it was implemented again

Its all about disrupting lower levels. You caught us. It has nothing to do with the millions you can make in credits, or the alliance crates you get that you need to increase your rank. Itt is all about disrupting lower levels.

Or, and maybe Im just being insane, there was a bug that allowed you to continue conversations with those two specific companions after starting KotFE in some cases when you werent supposed to be able to and now they are fixing it. Reading way too much into a simple bug fix

It is a pretty lame definition of event. I hate the snowflake dust, and the life day cheer ball, and anything like that that people can apply that makes me sparkle or glitter or whatever. But at least I could always click it off before. Now, for some reason, theyve decided THIS is the important thing to fix in 4.1 (possibly because people were clicking it off for gift trading purposes which would have made more sense when the event was actually active) but other bugs are getting ignored or pushed off to be fixed later. I honestly have no idea where their priorities are right now. I dont think they even know where their priorities are. It's certainly not in the right place. But if you are going to force me to be unable to remove a stupid debuff, then give me an ability to keep it from being applied in the first place or disable the ability to apply those buffs when the life day event is not active.

Will you at least provide a way for those of us who do not want this stupid buff to be able to keep from having it applied? I already hate being forced to participate in this lame fiasco you refer to as an event, but at least I have previously been able to remove the buff but now you are even taking that ability away from me. If I am not going to be able to manually remove it, at least provide some way for those of us who do not like it and do not want to be forced to participate a way to keep from getting the buff. Or at the very least make it so the buff cannot be applied when the life day event is not active

It's sad that this is not surprising in the least bit. Bioware leaving for vacation yet again when their product is broken. They dont care because too many people are willing to still shovel money at them even when the game is broken in some shape. This crap makes me want to just go elsewhere and take my money with me

The people who exploited definitely should be punished but if you think Bioware shares no blame when they left the exploit in for six weeks you are extremely ridiculous.

The problem isnt that there are bugs, its how long it takes to fix those bugs. Six Weeks is kind of ridiculous. If you cant come up with a quick fix, you remove those items which are causing the explot and apologize to the player base and explain why you are taking it out of the game until it can be fixed. They didn't do that with the Temple Chair Exploit and they didnt do it this time. That absolutely does not excuse the exploiters though. And unlike some of the previous exploits (Ravagers for example) these particular types of exploits tend to affect the entire community by driving the price of goods up through inflation. So I'm glad they are taking action against the exploiters. Doesn't mean that Bioware cant also be blamed for failing to act more quickly, even in a temporary way.

I do not know if that means that they are going to go after the credits the egregious offenders might have spent on items from unknowing bystanders or not. But it is concerning me that its a possibility. I have been listing my stuff at whatever the current asking price is for a few weeks now and my stuff has been selling rather quickly. I just hope that doesnt mean the exploiters were buying my stuff and that i might possibly lose the money I've made despite not doing anything wrong other than having piss poor luck if my stuff was bought by exploiters

Except that isnt what happened AT ALL, at least in my case. But thanks for assuming thats what I was doing

I am really concerned by the statement that they are going to strip credits from accounts that were not in any way involved simply because someone who exploited might have bought their stuff. That seems like punishing people who were not in any way involved for the actions of others. I have no way of stopping an individual who exploited from buying my relics/barrels/CM items from the GTN but I could lose the money those items are worth because they did so? If that happens are the items they purchased going to be returned to us? Or are we going to be unfairly punished? I didnt even know there was an exploit until the day before the patch that fixed it (wouldnt have participated any way)

Is this script what ****ed up my account and is now preventing me from logging in to my toons? If so bang up job for preventing me from actually being able to play

Only real complaint I have is how damn laggy the Alliance Camp Headquaters is. Like it is taking 2-3 minutes when i click anything for it to open and im running at 4 bars. Either the instances are too populated or something is going on

I definitely got the endurance datacron on makeb on the toon i logged in on EDIT: I logged in on the toon I did the Republic Datacrons on and now all but one (Coruscant Presence Datacron) are unlocked even though I know for a fact that was the toon I originally got all the datacrons on. Similiarly, with the Makeb Endurance I logged onto the toon I originally got it on and that unlocked the Makeb Endurance one. So the only one that still refuses to unlock is the Coruscant Presence one

I logged on when the server's came up and checked the Datacrons. I have the Datacron master title and have gotten every single datacron in the game, yet the following Datacrons are showing up as having not been gotten: All of the Datacrons on Tython are locked All of the Datacrons on Ord Mantell are locked All of the Datacrons on Coruscant are locked All of the Datacrons on Balmorra (Republic) are locked All of the Datacrons on Taris (Republic) are locked The Makeb Endurance Datacron is locked

They said at the NYCC in one of the Q&A's that adding a class would detract resources from adding new story. I'd rather have new story that I can play on all my toons than 1 story I can only play to level cap.

Except, the only reason we cannot is because they broke the system designed to give us the mats, not because they want to "funnel" it. A big part of crafting is being cut off straight away for who knows how long. Right around the time they will be geting ready for their breaks, etc. It is a stupid idea to keep an important mat tied to crafting off limits because of a bug they have no eta on when it will be fixed. And if you think people are going to be crafting BIS slot stuff right away without having to do any ops, you really have no idea where the BIS stuff comes from. The only way to get it to RE is to do at least the SM ops.

Its a good thing that it requires a mat that we wont be able to get for AT LEAST a month, if not longer?

It is always someone else's fault, never your own.

I know. It's terrible right? People wont be able to show how awesome they are by killing a person that cant hit them anymore, since they probably fail at killing people their own level.

Im sure its already been asked in the thread but you said difficulty is being reduced on former heroic 4's so that they can now be 2+. What does that mean for heroics that actually required 4 people, not necessarily because of their difficulty but because of the mehanics? Aurora Canon and the pub version come to mind, as does the second macrobinocular quest which required 4 people to complete each puzzle? The Seeker Droid Heroic, I believe I have done that with 2-3 people in the group though it was not very easy, but there are some heroics out there that definitely require more people not because of difficulty but because of actual mechanics or puzzles. Would be neat to know if those mechanics are being changed in any way.

Right now they all scale on the actual level of the highest person in the group. I dont think its unreasonable to ask if its going to scale to the scaled level or if its still going to go based off your actual level. Be better to know now and make sure its fixed than to find out when 4.0 is live and then they have to try to fix it then if its not based on scaled level.

Im not fear mongering. I am using the information they gave us to come to the conclusion. As a PT/Sin, I do not use Defense on every single implant/ear/mod/enhancement because if I do so I cannot get the stats I actually need. Yet in 4.0, thats exactly whats going to happen. So baseline, all tanks will stack the same amount of defense and good luck for sins and pts who got their shield/absorb numbers from the current setup because its no longer going to work that way. I am not speculating. I am using exactly what they told us. Its not that hard to read, its not that hard to look at what they are saying and what it means for stat distribution.
