There is totally no reason to go up to the VIP lounge. It is totally, totally pointless. Except to jump of the edge of course.

Is the vendor back yet? I still can't find it.

Actually the game servers have been up for the past 4 hours or so. The website has been down most of the day. https://twitter.com/#!/SWTOR

I'm hoping we'll see some better gear and items for purchase at the VIP vendors in the future. The DE stuff was novel at first, but I do now ask myself whether I should have just gone with cheapest variant of the game. Hopefully DE and CE players will continue to be recognised in the future and we'll see some more exclusive stuff.

I'm just utterly speculating here, but maybe that gear was created to purposely be introduced later? 'Develop now, save time later for patching and bugs etc' Apparently Rise of Rakghouls started development a year ago and that was only released one month after the game was live, I think that was planned. This is however just my guess. I would love to see those mentioned armour sets and features in game soon. I care about looks just as much as I do about damage and healing.

Hopefully this is the right place to ask this. Recently, I noticed that at the end of a match, I've had only 400 objective points (200 offensive, 200 defensive) even though I'd scored at least once. Is a score only worth 200 points? I'm used to seeing my objective points at least break a thousand. What did I do wrong that match?

This is what I thought

That's weird. That's not my experience of how this type of technology works. Defeats the point of the device if this is true for the SWTOR authenticators.

Are you sure? I changed my SWTOR password recently and that changed my Origin account password as well.

@OP That's a little worrying. Did they actually get to your SWTOR characters? I understand they gained access to your EA account because SWTOR and EA accounts are linked and then changing your email/password on one does the same on the other, but did they get to your characters in game, strip them of cash and gear etc? Or did they authenticator keep the 'SWTOR' side of things protected?

I'm not going to make out like it's the end of the world or cancel my subscription, but I'm a bit disgruntled about the fact the game was brought down on a Saturday of all days. Oh well. Back to killing ex-Havoc traitors.

1.1.0c Patch Notes - 1/28/2012 General Improved service to reduce the number of player disconnections to the character selection screen.

That gear certainly does look very detailed compared to what I'm used to seeing on my BH.

So much inpatients around here. I'm sure I've read a blog post somewhere in which Bioware stated they would address the illegitimate valour gains shortly.
