The only planet I truly despise is Taris, on the Imperial side. It's dark, dreary, and if you agro one rakghoul, you're going to be attacked by half a dozen others. The Republic side is moderately better, because at least it's daytime.

I'm afraid that what's at that link is all I know. We may not know the answer until 10 days have past since Lokin became available yesterday.

There is a secret achievement for feeding him. https://torcommunity.com/guides/achievements/1170-how-to-discover-the-lokin-secret-achievement

Personally, I find it rather amusing to hear Theran saying "If Master Zho could see me now", while we're slaughtering Jedi.

One thing to keep in mind, if you do decide to do the Warzones to get either of the 2 PvP companions, make sure to pick up the daily and weekly quests. Between rewards for running the warzones, the daily and weekly quest rewards, and the rewards for the companions quest, you will end up with enough Warzone Commendations to get a full set of the basic PvP gear. So if you find you don't mind PvP as much as you thought, you are geared to enjoy more of it.

So is what they are saying anywhere close to what the subtitles show them saying, or just random words?

Are you sure your level isn't showing as something like 50 >> 42 by your portrait? The 50 is in a larger font so you might be missing the 42.

Hoth would be about level 42, so that sounds like what is happening.

Are you maybe on a lower level planet where both you and your companion have been down-synced? You can tell by looking at your level, it should show 50>>42 if that is the case.

There is also a post on the Dev Tracker that they are having some connection issues that may impact in game Cartel Market purchases today.

This is my strategy. As a sniper, I sit in cover, call inc when needed, and throw AOE's around the node to prevent the opposing team's tapping it, and then I die and have to run back.

I am not a fan of PvP, largely due to the fact that I'm terrible at it. I did manage to get the 20 matches needed, though last night was really good and I got credit for 11 from only 6 played. One thing to keep in mind, if you are picking up the daily and weekly quests, along with the companion quest, you will get enough Warzone Commendations to get some PvP gear. By the time I finished last night, I had a complete set of Basic PvP gear. Now I just have to decide if I will ever make use of it again.

Sorry for the misinformation on my part. I have been turning on the "Show Exploration Missions" on all of my characters, so didn't realize that you couldn't pick them up if it wasn't turned on. Good information to have.

I haven't been to Korriban myself since the expansion, but from what I've seen on Tython, the way you pick up Heroics have changed. I would recommend looking for a terminal either at the Sith Academy or around the flight paths to find the Heroics. They will give you a button that will take you directly to the area where they are completed, and you don't have to turn them in anywhere, they auto complete.

I have done that quest both ways, and either way it should be turned back in to the same NPC who gave the quest back in town. I'm sorry but I don't remember the name of the town off hand, but it is the one right there by the island where the quest is done.
