Also, if you have the time, try to pay a visit to Belsavis. I found many level 5 mats there, from nodes and killing the monsters.

Hello, Crew Skills forum! So, I've been leveling Biochem (lvl 189 right now), and in consequence of it I crafted many medpacks, stims and implants. Some I give to guildies, others to alts, but I can never figure out for how much I should sell them on the GTN. Should I look at how much other people are selling their crafts for? Or just sell for the sum of the mats I used? Or just ask whatever I want and cross my fingers? Any tip is appreciated :>

Nope. As someone who has maxed affection with Nadia and watched all her convos, I can assure you that there was no icky forced heterosexual kiss, thank the Force. I agree about Nolan North, though. Love the man to bits, but... not his best work.

Ooh, I was going to use full salker, but with two Force Master pieces. Thanks Though, should I change the mods of the FM for the Stalker ones? FM has a lot of alacrity, iirc, wich is useless for us.

Yes. If I'm not mistaken, that is a battlemaster saber (high tier PvP gear).

I think armstechs can craft orange techblades. You won't find them naturally in the game, though.

I leveled both as "KC" (actually Darkness, in my Assassin) and Balance (still leveling, level 39!). Darkness gave me a very easy experience, I felt simply invincible, leveling was very smooth and all that (I used Andronikos). I'm having much more fun with Balance though. I use a mix of Zenith/Tharan, Zenith for regular fighs and Tharan for bosses (though Zenith always surprise me when he destroys 3+ strong enemies by himself ). It's very challenging and you will have to use your CCs a lot, but considering that Zenith is my favorite companion I'm having a great time.

I see there are lots of opinions about the subject. Since I am leveling and don't have the luxury of a lvl 50 PvP gear (lvl 36 right now, just 14 levels to go!) I will try to have some of each stat ^^"

I usually do PvP, anyway Currently my gear has a lot of +crit chance, I will give Power a try and see how it goes.

Hello! Great guide, I chose Balance as my spec and I love it SO much, it's amazing! I do feel very squishy, but I guess that only means I should chose my battles more carefully. I do have a question, though. Should I go with +critical rating or +power? When our DoTs crit we get some self-healing (up to 4% of our max health when specced, iirc), but having a steady damage may be better... what do you guys think?

#Supports. I hope BioWare notices this thread!

Good point.

I can't bring myself to romance Ashara because duurrrr Andronikos. I romance him as FemInquisitor though, because I think the female voice actress is so much better than the male ~ Wich brings me to a topic I always wondered: what if some of the VAs (we have a lot of them, after all) have a problem with voicing S/S content? I'm sure it won't happen, just a thought.

I'm actually finding myself not playing my alts until the S/S is here. The only exception is my Agent, because I don't really feel like I'd romance Vector, if he were yo be a S/S option :| I guess I can keep playing my Agent. Forever.

Well... if we have new companions with new content, I suppose that means they'll only be avaliable after level 50, right? Don't get me wrong, new companions are great (pleaseletthembecorsosclone), but I'll have a lot of leveling to do, since I'm holding many of my alts in place for S/S content. Sad emoticon ->

Ooh, interesting. I was looking for this kind of build, actually, especially because it goes well with my RP character. I'll be sure to give it a try. Thanks!

They probably will add more flirting options. That said, I always thought they kinda wrote themselves into a corner or didn't really planned that far ahead when they implemented the marriages. But that's just me. Edit: I also think that something so closely related with our society like same sex relationship's portrait in media is a little bit more important than bigger health bars. But that's just my opinion, no need to spread it around.

Actually, some of Leliana's lines are different. I find her F/F romance very sweet, by the way. In any case, consider this: gender may not be important for our characters but, romance wise, it's important for our LI. Some LIs like the girls, some LIs like the boys. Pretending that Corso is straight only (hahahahahahaha) and you ask him to chose between M!Smuggler and F!Smuggler to get cozy in his room, he'll say F!Smuggler because he just don't like them *****es. I understand your point and you made a very good job explaining the nuances of it, but in the end it boils down to how the writer thinks the companion should be. If Corso's writer (I think Jennifer Hepler wrote his romance, kudos to her) wrote him as straight (hahahahahaha), s/he may think that a M/M romance needs to have a different impact on the Corso/M!Smuggler relationship than the one we see in the Corso/F!Smuggler one. (I, hm, don't really know how to express myself. I hope you understand what I'm trying to say."

Hey there. Talos isn't a romance option at all for females, only Andronikos is. As for Pierce, he's just a fling. You can "fade-to-black" with him, if you catch my meaning, but you can't romance him - it won't even break your romance with Quinn. Actually, I think that if you sleep with Pierce, Quinn will mention it in one of his letters.

As MusedMoose said, they can't just go adding companions willy-nilly - it must make sense or they'll just become unimportant, token companions who are just there so their gayness can shine like a beacon bright enough to be seen from Dromund Kaas. Only I can do that.

He can, but I doubt he will. With some notable exceptions (Garrus and Tali, and only because they're ridiculously popular, and even then they're not even that alien-ish) Bioware romances usually go for the humans or very, very human-like aliens. Cat man or not, Aric Jorgan looks very much like a rugged male, for example. While I'm sure Bowdar owns a very charming personality, he's not what I would call Bioware Romance Material. But hey, they could surprise us. Or not.

I was probably too busy making "awwwwns" to notice it, but you do have a point. His homeworld sound very conservative, so hiding that he swing both ways doesn't sound too far-fetched. In any case, I'll wait and see - I'm still rooting for my sweet little Corso, but if the writers think they can come up with a companion that will make me forget him I won't stop them.

Corso has to be the M/M option, though. The only other male options are Bowdar, who is a wookiee and Guss Tuno who is a Mon Calamari (or, as I like to call them, fish thingies). Unless they add a new companion Corso is pretty much going to let me touch his Torchy in a near future. Or we could have M!Smuggler/C2-N2.

Yes, that's true. We can guess some things - Nadia will more likely than not be the F/F option for Consulars, since she's the one female companion. We can also try to guess going for the companion's personality - I think that Tharan probably wouldn't be a M/M option because his devotion to Holiday wouldn't let him build a true romantical relationship with another person. Sex, of course, he has itches that Holiday can't stratch, but I thin it stops at that. Wich leaves Zenith or Iresso. Pleaseletbezenithletbezenithletbezenith Of course, it may boil down to random factors - maybe the writer noticed the S/S community has hopes for a particular character more than others. Hell, it may as well make no sense except for the fact that the writer finds it hot/funny/cute. For all we know, the IA's writer has a thing for FemAgent/SCORPIO. (That's my headcanon and I'm sticking with it.)

Hmm, what do you guys think about the Corruption/Madness hybrid? (The "VaenH's Hybrid 1"). I've been looking for a build like that lately, so... though, I wonder if it's possible to get Deathmark without nerfind the healing too much? The boost on the DoT damage sounds too good to ignore, but I don't know... any ideas?
