I know it would be 30 and 30 and its not the same as 60%, but it would increase my proc chance correct? So having two of them wouldn't be completely worthless? Also I just checked the PTS and the campaign relics are the same and the beefed up matrix cube still isn't worth using.

I know there's a 4.5 second CD that would effect both but if I had two of the campaign relics from the daily comm vendor that had a passive proc of 30% would they stack and give me a 60% chance to proc? I'm talking specifically about getting 2 of the damage dealing relics on proc. Thanks

Just posting to give my 2 cents for whatever that's worth these days. F2P is the devil and Micotransactions is how he tempts you on the road to damnation. So I say NO to F2P.

According to the transfer blog when people transfer if the name they have is taken they need to choose a new one. Fine I can understand that....HOWEVER There NEEDS to be a tool where you can check each of the servers you can free transfer too to see if your name and legacy name are available. Its one thing to say if you transfer and someone has your name you lose but its another to make us play Russian roulette. And no just trying to start a character on that server beforehand wouldn't work because you can't check if your legacy name is available.

Hello Just popping in to say not everyone in the community is full of bile. There are those who not only love SWTOR but still have faith in Bioware and the future of the game. Thank you for the introductions and I look forward to seeing how this will aid in future development. Cheers

I actually tried to edit my sig to remove the cross server and macros part but the bloody thing wont work. I think the changed the max sig size or something and I dont want to lose my giant letters. I still stand by all the other stuff though.

I've been doing alot of thinking and reading... And I have decided this really could be a good thing. The entire original team was 800 people first of all. So firing 200 isn't nearly the big deal its made out to be. Second of all nobody will say SWTOR doesn't have some issues and these issues aren't being handled fast enough. So I say good fire all the incompetents, the fools, the lazies, and the entire QA team who apparently wouldn't know a bug if it bit them. Bioware is hiring, not to replace all positions of course but they are hiring, new QA people for example. So I think this is the wake up call they needed and hopefully content will come faster and actually bug free, or at least more bug free lol.

1. Conference calls are just to keep EA shares up, nothing said there can ttruly be trusted. 2. All MMO's downsize after realize, I agree the timing is wierd though. But maybe thats because they decided to dump the deadweight and hire/promote the people who know what their doing? 3. Even at 500k subs the game would be profitable, at 1 million swtor would be in excellent shape.

I finally got my first level 50 Put together my matrix cube I'm going back now and doing all the quests I missed and looking forward to getting into operations. And I'm loving every minute of it.

Okay I have decided there is at least a 50/50 percent chance that this might be a good thing. I shall continue onwards with business as usual and just wait for 1.3 to see how things go.

::Places cap back on vodka bottle:::

the news wasn't delivered very quickly or well anyway. If anything maybe they will get more hungry professional people who will also work for less.

SEE!!! and we all know the QA team SUCKED, it was bug after bug SO this can be good right right??? :::cries:::

sorry it was in the other huge thread about what does these layoffs mean for swtor I believe. Someone linked that bioware just recently posted an opening for community manager

I read sopposdly they are already looking to replace Reid, not cut his position completely. Now I liked Reid but maybe their just looking for people to blame and again are replacing some figures as well as firing. I also read there were 800 freaking people total working on things at least somewhat related to swtor so even 200 firings isnt that huge depending on who it was. Is there no way this good be good news? I want to make sure before I open my vodka

The restructuring/layoffs is the first bit if SWTOR news that has actually left me concerned. I'm a diehard SWTOR fanboy with a 6 month sub. I still believe a good group finder, server transfers and ranked warzones can totally save this game. Honestly this new announcement has me confused more then anything else. It might sound bizzare but I'm not even sure if this is a good or bad thing. I mean SWTOR has had issues, with things like development priorities, buggy patches, poor communication and the like. Isn't it possibly that their trimming the fat, moving people around and maybe even hiring one or two new smarty pants to FIX SWTOR not gut it? Or does this have to be 100% bad news? I just don't know if I should be happy or sad and that's really annoying. I mean its always bad when people lose their jobs but if some of these people were just doodling all day their salaries can be better spend elsewhere. I'm not saying everyone sacked deserved it or anything. I'm just not sure if this means DOOOOM or NEW HOPE or just alittle tighning of the belt to keep swtor profitable with less subscribers. Can someone help me out here?

You said it better then I could sir. I agree completely. I also recall Anarchy Online having an AA or alternate Advancement system though theirs needed a little work Everyone is so quick to jump on the level cap increase bandwagon with no thought to the consequences to the game as a whole. Gotta see the whole forest not just a tree. Just because you know you will always be "level 50" doesn't mean your character stops growing or advancing or gaining in power. You just can do so in different ways.

sorry I respectfully disagree. Not everything should be connected to legacy I know earning social is a pain, but nobody says you need to max it on every single Alt. It really devalues the meaning of SP and getting the cool high end social gear if you do it once and every character on you have on the server suddenly can use that stuff as well.

I didn't think of that. Botting and credit selling.... Okay I withdraw my support but its not worth it if it helps gold sellers or botters in any way

Repeatable quests should have a different icon or at least be a different color. Furthermore if you have already completed the quest and its being offered again, it should have a unique icon as well. So for people who just want to do every heroic once, and have poor memories they know they did it already.

How about this... As a perk for the 110% speeders you can harvest while mounted. Be a nice addition since people are always complaining that its not fast enough anyway OR It could be a really cool legacy unlock, just make it for all characters not that one character stuff. I defiently agree in spirit that we should be able to harvest while mounted, I don't think it would mess up the game any since there are no flying mounts (thank g-d). I just think it just be added with alittle pizzazz instead of just suddenly everyone can harvest while mounted

I know creating content takes time, specially with having to record VO. Its depressing though finishing your companion storyline and never getting to talk to them again. It would be really great if you kept adding more letters to us from all our companions. Nothing crazy of course just an occasional letter from one of them every know and then about whatever as long as it follows within their character. Could have one guy for each class just in charge of adding a new letter for one of your companions every month or so. Don't want to get them too often or they would lose impact and it would just get silly of course.

when selling stack able items I want to be able to select how much I i wish to sell each for and then for the GTN to automatically calculate the total based on amount in the stack. Right now I keep a calculator by my desk to do the math and its annoying. P.S. Please put some sort of cap on how much deposit the GTN will take because right now its pretty much impossible to put something up for like 6 million or something unless your stinking rich already.
