there is a reason Sith wear certain gear and Jedi wear there’s, it would ruin the game if all the whiny emo children got what they wanted, I have not seen other mmo’s cater for the “I want” generation as much as Star Wars has.

Cathar, bioWare/EA official response to Blizzards pandas, both are lame, they could have made Trandoshans a new playable species, as many have said “they are already in game”.

you are joking I hope, a Thunder cats character’s name in star wars.

Personally, I’m not making a Cathar character, will hang out for my BH Trandoshan, would like to see the poll that was taken in regards to what species everyone wanted and where Cathars came on it, praise be to the scorekeeper.

Still trying to figure out how you get married, my commando is level 42 and can not get any more affection points with Elara Dorne as I’m maxed. ( 10,000/10,000 or whatever it is ) She hasn’t spoken to me for a long time, however I’m still getting credit (points) when I quest etc. with her.

I had the same problem so I asked on the forums and a Moderator assisted me, follow the link below as he explains how to set them up. http://www.swtor.com/community/showthread.php?t=406399

I whole heartedly agree with this and will walk if it’s implemented, hence I quite star trek and other games because of it.

Thank you for the link, however, I don’t think it is working yet as I can’t click on the “Request Transfer” tab, will keep trying, as it’s only the eighteenth now and says you must activate before the twenty fourth and that is only a week away. P.S Still have not received an email saying I am eligible but my character was created in January of this year.

Only what everyone else has mentioned, server transfers are late April, so there is still ten to fifteen days to go, wish they had mentioned late April when Asia /Pacific servers were being looked at.

Thank you, will give it another try. P.S dropping Kira out of Perforation stance did the trick, thanks again.

Just looking for a little information or assistance as this problem is frustrating, I have noticed that every time Kira is summoned she is in “defensive mode” running with her lightsabre, is there a way to have her go offensive except when entering combat, and doesn’t seem to happen with any of my other characters companions just her. P.S Even setting her to passive doesn’t help, her sabre is still showing, and not held correctly.

Wife and I are slow levellers; I have a level 40 on “The Jekk'Jekk Tarr” the was created in January; however I’m waiting for the Asia /Pacific transfers. We decided to make a few characters on “Dalborra” so we have a level 22 gunslinger, 19 Commando, 16 Mercenary and 16 Sniper, we both enjoy the stories that each character has so no space baring for us.

ꜛThisꜛ, I can’t decide between Commando and Gunslinger or Mercenary and Marauder, my wife and I still enjoy the game.

I log in everyday (generally) as well, play for maybe three or four hours, still don’t have a character to fifty yet and in no rush to do so, closes is a level 40 commando but waiting for the free Asia/Pacific transfers so he can join my other characters.

It wasn’t for a select few, the email and transfer is for anyone who meets the criteria: Only characters created on The Old Republic servers by February 28, 2012, 5:01PM EDT, 7:01PM NZDT, 2:01PM HKT, 2:01PM SGT qualify for transfers.

We will be sending an email to all qualified players by early March with more details. Stay tuned to http://www.StarWarsTheOldRepublic.com for more information. Hope that helps explain things a little better

They were, I received my e-mail on the second of March to say I was eligible to transfer: JOIN THE ASIA PACIFIC SERVERS You qualify for a one-time, free character transfer to our Asia Pacific servers. This transfer is targeted for late April and we will be sending you additional information on how to request your transfer in the coming weeks.

If you request a transfer, the following will not be moved as part of this request: • Friends List • Auction Items • In-Game Mail • Guild Membership Just waiting for the confirmation as to when we will be allowed to transfer sometime this month.

Would have to agree with this statment

If this game ever goes F2P I’m out of here, will not play a "pay to win" game, then again that’s my personal choice.

All i can suggest is you look under Asia Pacific Launch and see if that will answer you question, personally received my email on the 02/March/12 saying i was eligible, i remember seeing somewhere that you have to have your account details as Australia (or whatever country you are from) to be eligible. P.S taken from above link How do I know if I qualify for the free character transfers?

Reading this post has helped me determine that for pve sniper (Marksman) is the way to go, thank you all for your input.

Thanks once again iDraxter, this has helped imensly, Merc it is.

Thank you for your response, I was wondering if there is a viable ranged dps spec for Powertech ( don’t want to melee/tank ) as the armour looks better to me than Mercenary, or is Mercenary dps superior in all ways to Powertech? Thanks again

Yes, I know this has been asked a thousand times, however, as I cannot find the proper answer I will ask once more from players that are proficient in both classes, which is better for dps Powerteck or Mercenary? I was put off a tank/dps specs with my Jedi Guardian for the lack of dps compared to my wife’s Commando, also, I wish to be a ranged dps class but hear that Powerteck is best as a close range dps where Mercenary is ranged but healer as well, please supply personal opinions and choices. Thank you

Played a Trandoshan in SWG and would love to play one in ToR as well, doesn’t matter which side he was on, just miss my Dosh.

This may be true that Australians / Kiwis have their own servers ( thanks to Bioware for that ) but the maintenance is still at an inconvenient time, hence, the argument is flawed ( that is the historically recorded time period when the game is the least busiest ) because 6:00 pm AEST is prime time when people are home from work.
