Then you don't want them to grant cxp for anything butt some HM FP and some HM/NiM Ops? Because nothing else in this game requires gear.

How is that a solution since I don't just do EV and KP?

This times 100. Only I would be more specific and say It's time for new HM Operations.

Gear is irrelevant anymore. You don't use the gear for heroics, chapters or sm ops for that matter. Content has been so dumbed down you don't need any gear you get from CXP to do anything in game except some HM FP, some HM Ops and NIM Ops. So why not take CXP bonus rotation away from everything, but HM FP and HM NIM Ops?

There are youtube video of the game that have the story without the silly chore of playing the game.

Troll much?

Then don't play a game. Watch a movie.

Play the game, you can't die now. If you are dying change companion to healer, you have to have it set as tank or dps. That is the only way you can die. Still not working give them a couple gifts. Leveling once the companion is level 10 you can not die.

who the hell is super elite. I'm a average to below average player at best. I'm a decent healer, but since the game does require healers anymore, I don't even level her, but dps I'm a novelist at best. Who is this us? Everyone but me wants to play TOR the movie instead of playing a game?

People can come by and look at your stronghold. You can even invite people and there is an achievement for getting 50 people in there. They can only come in if you list i public and you are online. Weird sometimes when you are in stronghold and you see a nameplate walk pass.

What are you talking about? In story I get up and answer the door comeback 10 mins later and companion is killing 3rd spawn by that time. I really thought the only way to die outside of PvP and HM/NiM operations was to fall off something. I believe they have limited deaths to the point of the game being a boring joke. I run around instance pulling every mob and still don't fall below 30% health in heroics. How by making it more boring?

First off great post, I can agree with 99% of it, with the exception of this line. I don't require a steady stream, I just require a stream. It may only appear in rainy season, but they could give us a little drink.

That is the entire point of thread. The very question is about semantics. Is this game an MMO or a single player online rpg? Back in the day, there use to be repeatable content to play.

Sorry keep forgetting sarcasm does not translate to internet. Especially forums.

I once thought this was a very good MMO. That was before the dark times, before the tactical FPs, Solo FPs, dumbing down of planet quest, heroics. Back when your character could die from something other than falling down elevator shafts without door or ledges without catwalks. I'll agree it was a MMO and I will even say it was once a good MMO. Now it is a online RPG to me. Come out with new operations and quit trying to sell us on the same stale content and I may change my mind. I wasn't always like this, I use to defend content as content even if I didn't like it, but then they even dumbed down the old content that I could still stand.

It is like all their dumbing down of group content over the past couple years. Group content should keep you engaged. This has no engagement or social value. No challenge on progression, nothing to keep guild engaged. Yes it is group content, but it does nothing to inspire playing game after you play it the first time.

It is waste of time.

It all depends. Leveling one class is just as easy as the next class. In endgame. mDPS has advantage in a few fights, but is at a disadvantage in most. I mainly play range when playing dps, but mDPS can be a lot of fun.

Fixed to what I'm saying since people's white hats are ruining their reading ability.

Please quote where I wrote that. I'll wait.... Oh you went to the foxnews school of debate, make up what the other person is saying then treat you make believe as fact. Play KOTET chapters and tell me how me player characters you see? Last couple expansions could have easily been a RPG. You can count old operations if you want, but I am solely talking about the direction this game is going. I use to defend this game, but even I can see TOR now circling the drain.

I agree, but would add at the expense of the MMO side of the equation. If you are blaming player for this not being a MMO, please explain to me how I am at fault for no new operations for over 2 years. I played the operations multiple nights per week since they were released, is it my fault they are old and stale to me and my guild now? So I am not enhancing the MMO element of the game because, I find old content old? What I wasn't suppose to play it when it was released so I could play it now?

why does that matter? They still don't have any gear.

Back at launch when this was a MMO, I leveled my main as a sawbones. I am not going to disagree with you completely. I am going to disagree that leveling from 1 to endgame as healer is an advantage. This was my first MMO and this was my first time playing as a healer in any game. I was in a guild with friends and when I started I asked them what we needed. The said heals so that was what I did. Personally leveling as a healer solo was a mistake for me. I picked up a lot of bad habits that I had to unlearn at endgame. I have 7 healers now, only my main did I level as a healer. Everyone is different so others may be fine level in heal spec, but anyone like me I would suggest leveling dps spec and once hitting end game respec. Since group finder came out I would level dps and just respec for fp or heroics when needed. Personally I learned more about healing at level 50 on ilum helping people solo the heroic than I ever learned leveling.

Not really a gripe for the moment. My gripe for almost 2 years. No new operations and no real incentive to play tank or healers in group content that has came out (white knights I am not talking about PvP).

Now it is a online RPG with some very old stale group content.
