Well friend, it seems that you are dancing to the wrong tune with the wrong partner. To say Bioware's metrics are not limitted is a bit of an oxymoron (as metrics refers to measurements), on top of that it is also completely false. Yes Bioware's metrics are capable of measuring the duration of time a player spends on certain activities, but the information obtained is extremely limitted. For example i may spend 40 minutes doing a hardmode flashpoint with friends, but i'll spend 1 hour complaining about how God awful the experience was on TS. Any MMO's survival is based upon it's ability to listen to feedback and react. - And that is how companies work, by listening to their clients/customers and giving them what they want.

Yes yes, wouldn't want to get you in trouble wih Aneu for going off topic again And yes, the state of swtor at the moment is dire, i don't think it could even be considered a "filler" game, since personally i would much rather play tetris until something more worthwhile comes along. Bioware have been thrown a lifeline here, whether or not they choose to aknowledge it and act upon it will be of great consequence to the life of swtor.

You must be talking about gathering Akium powder in order to make an Akium stone which will cleanse land in the northern continent, if so then yes i have known this for some time now. I did enjoy the lightning wood tip bit though, if possible try and find out how exactly sieges/territory transfer works. From what i have seen, the places where you can plant the Akium are preset locations, meaning the castles can only be placed in certain locations, and most of these locations appear to have a large hill next to them - allowing attackers to glide right into your keep. This renders the walls useless. Need to know more about control and transfer of territory.

Archeage?!?!?! When the guy said look at history to learn about PvP, i don't think he was comparing technology or weapons, merely suggesting to take a look at the incentive for war throughout history. As Kebab says; America need $$$ Oil Iraq has $$$ Oil PvP happens Shalina i love you and know you can take it. P.S. Troll Power

Since you have devoted yourself to this path Chad, a system similar to AO's towers would be perfect. In AO a guild could claim and plant a tower site, and plant turrets/conductors which both aided in the defence of the site and gave the person planting a personal buff (xxx hp/nano pool or other stats equivalent to an extra piece of armour). Now since Aneu has already proposed that bases be controlled by a guild, why not have slots around that base for mods/enhancements, these items will increase the hp of the shield generators, the damage of the cannons etc and give a buff to the individual who placed the item in the slot, how does 30 endurance 60 cunning 25 power sound for example? These items would have to be crafted, giving some meaning to the crafting skills, even Artifice, since those cannons gonna need a colour crystal. Now the materials for this new line of crafted goodies could be gained in a number of imaginable ways, personally id say boss lewt from planet bosses, bringing pvp into more areas of the game. Any way, just 1 idea, with the current state of PvP taking a dump on ones own screen could be considered and improvement.

You forgot to add "You jelly Brah?" There is a special place in hell reserved for you Kebab, i hear its alot like the current version of Ilum

I'm diddling just fine for now , content atleast that i rolled the right class for Sorc Wars on Ilum for now atleast. Messing around with some alts while i farm the last few pieces of battlemaster for my sorc so i can declare the game complete and wait for TSW or GW2 to release and tie me over till Archeage (where i will consummate my love for Aneu).

If you listen very carefully, you can hear Gabe Amatangelo and his team clearing out their desks.

Firstly you would have to pick up parasitism in order for your damaging abilities to heal you, and since you havent taken it in your skill calc... This leaves only death field for healing, which heals for 100-200 per player affected by death field for up to 3 players, on a 15 sec cooldown, so a potential heal of 300-600 every 15 secs, thats insane... Secondly, there has been no thought put into your spec what ever, Reserves > Electric Induction. With 3 points in EI you would have to spend your entire force pool 2 times over just to equate to 2 points in reserves, giving you a spare point to place in Lightning Spire, increasing the range of CL by 5m, and the entire point of going so far into both trees is to pair Wrath with CL after all..
