Hello, I am a returning player. I havent played or raided since Hutt Cartel. Im not entirely sure I want to continue with this game after learning about Tactical Flashpoints, and the idea that the trinity model isnt needed. I hear they are made extremely easy by common heals, no real need for a tank, ect...my first question is, is this true? Running flashpoints while leveing and using the Trinity model is a huge part of the fun for me of MMO's. If they're too easy, and dont provide much challenge anymore, I cant say Im inclined to continue with SWTOR. In comparison to these new Tactical Flashpoints, is there a benefit to running HM FP's, and do they still offer the same challenge/use the trinity model? I am really hoping someone will give me a good argument to continue playing with these new features. Seriously, I love this game, and I want to stay. But if the large amount of game experience for me, Trinity and FP's, is just not there anymore, I might seek another MMO. I'd love to hear anyone's thoughts. I'm seriously open to either side of this argument. Thanks!

Hello all, So, I've come across two questions completely unrelated to each other. Can anyone help me out? 1. What exactly is crowd control? I've read and know from other games that CC is lowering a mob's ability to deal damage to a group, or stopping them from doing so for a period of time (Flashbang, Slice Droid, for my sniper). But I've also heard, and I think this is wrong, reading about other games that CC can be heavy AoE damage to a mob to make them easier to take down. What do you think of this definition, and what is CC to the ToR community specifically? 2. Is there a way to transfer characters between servers, or has Bioware not added that yet? Thanks guys for the help!

Thank you guys! I appreciate it! Helpful information. I think I shall try to find an active guild after I get familiar enough with the game.

Hello all, I am fairly new to the game and have a question about finding groups for flashpoints. My favorite part of MMO's is group PVE. I notice SWTOR doesn't seem to have a Dungeon Finder or LFG queue. I'd love to do flashpoints with groups, but am having trouble finding players to group with. Do you have any suggestions for good ways of finding flashpoint groups? Does SWTOR have anything similar to Dungeon Finder? What's been a good way to find groups in your experience? Thanks! -Nef
