It tells you the exact mobs to kill to get the code thingy. I did it, I didn't know which ones to kill, I looked at the quest text is said which ones to kill, I went and killed them and got the item off the first one I killed.

I did it today as a 55 scoundrel healer with Bowdaar as my companion. It wasn't too difficult although the fight was a bit longer than normal because of him healing. Definitely possible to do solo.

There is an easy fix. Make the quest repeatable, and give it a reward that people want. Say 2x elite commendations and 10x basic commendations per day. Then people will do it. It is a very very poor design decision to make a difficult non-repeatable heroic that needs four people the final part of this quest chain. Sack whoever came up with the idea because they have no *********** idea what they are doing and should not be working on a MMO anywhere.

A sorc can't force speed from spawn, but a smuggler can't roll the whole way either without running out of energy. And what about life grip. A sorc can life grip a player a huge distance and if that player is another sorc they can speed from there to the goal line a hell of a lot faster than a smuggler can roll even half the distance. Sorcs have been overpowered in huttball ever since launch, now there is one class that can do half a what you can do you have to cry about it.

Except you can't roll while stunned, force choked, frozen, etc etc. Now if it broke stun when you hit roll it would be OP, as it is it's about the same as consular/inquisitor speed burst.

Took 3 attempts today, eventually got luckly and only had to move twice to kill him. The shackles as he calls down the rocket fire is what wiped us the first two times. People are already moving and the tank or someone gets shackles back in the previous square it's an almost certain wipe. I found it easiest if I (as scoundrel healer) focused on the shackles because I had good mobility and there is bugger all damage being done to the tank.

Nice to know when this is going to be fixed. 87x Bio-Mechanical Interface Chips 2x Thermal Regulators That makes me sad.

Agent Vs. Smuggler = Smuggler win. Why? Because Bowdaar, 100 year old Wookie > all other companions. Knight Vs. Warrior = Assuming sentinel vs. Mara = Tie because they'd both mindless kill each other. Assuming Jugg vs. Guardian = Tie because the can't do enough dps to kill each other. Bounty Hunter vs. Trooper = Bounty Hunter would win, they have more missiles and tricks... Inquisitor Vs. Consular = Inquisitor win, Consular's are wimps, just look at their storyline.

I thought the black hole smuggler gear was quite nice. It had a lot of detail work that had gone into the armour with pouches etc. The current basic/partisan set is a lot less details, although the higher level sets are better.

The mission description tells which elites to kill. Learn to read.

Have to agree here. Did my first 55 hard mode tonight and we had one wipe and I was healing in what is considered undergeared (mostly war hero with a few black hole pieces and one basic commendations piece). The bosses in Hammer Station were exceedingly easy to kill, I'd go as far as to say they were easier than in the normal mode of the instance. For the record, our one wipe was on the 3rd pack of enemies in the instance where the group I was in used no CC and I was unable to keep the tank alive through all the damage. The rest of the trash was ok although there were a few close moments when the sentinel dps pulled an extra elite just before the bonus boss. I think with CC (and we had 5 possible CC) the instance would have been exceedingly easy. So my recommendation if you are undergeared is to use CC and pull enemies fairly carefully. You shouldn't have trouble with the bosses, the trash is harder.

The main problem I have with the increased travel costs is that is now costs 2-3K credits to fly to a planet right next door to you, but 0 credits to fly from the outer rim back to the fleet. Fuel costs should be higher the further you travel, not based on the some fake level you give a planet.

I had 2 weeklies, the 50 one which was complete one flashpoint using group finder, and the 55 one which is complete 3x 55 hard mode flashpoints.

I think they are fine. I just hit 55 jumped straight into HM Hammer Station in my mix of black hole + pvp gear + 1 piece of basic gear and aside from one wipe on that first big group of droids around the corner from the entrance it was a pretty smooth run. I admit healing got a bit tough on occasions but the group wasn't using any CC at all, just pulling groups of mobs and using aoe to bring them down. The bosses, with the exception of the bonus boss, were considerably easier than normal mode hammer station, especially the last boss who was a breeze. The trash... well a little tough at time, but we only had the one wipe, coincidentally on that same pack low level groups always wipe on so I'd recommend using CC on the elite droids there.

It's weird it only seems to be my republic character, I could log into my assassin and play with no issues at all, but my scoundrel lags constantly..

Definitely having issues on Harbinger tonight. I can't even get onto the server at the moment after the game lagged out and stopped working. It just hangs when trying to connect the server.

He is talking about world pvp I think... strange I know but I think that he is upset that he no longer has expertise to gank low level players in world pvp.

The launcher was showing 5am PDT (12PM GMT) for me when I logged on about half an hour ago. They obviously changed the time (to Australian peak time might I add) at very short notice and didn't update the launcher.

If you are dps your queue position is last.

Hmm not sure which is the least popular but I will say this. I went to the gear vendors on the fleet today and I was the only one standing at the smuggler ones. There were at least 10 people at each of the other vendors but no one at the smuggler's. Of course there were 10 smugglers for every other character at the bar... but I'm sure that means nothing.

I'm level 53 and I've completed the first island (mesa? whatever they are). Of course I was 1xp off 51 when I started and I did a flashpoint and I've done 3 heroics as well. I didn't stack dailies/weeklies like some people however.

You know if you can select which flashpoints you queue for and deselect the ones people are having trouble with to get fast and easy runs through familiar content. Although I will say this week I tanked Kaon Under Siege on my assassin and healed Lost Island on my scoundrel knowing nothing about the instance apart from what I quickly read on Dulfy's webpage and went through both instances with only one wipe on Kaon Under Siege where I got knocked back into a second group of enemies. I haven't tried the group finder content for operations yet though, maybe next week.

Yes I've seen that one. Does it count for all your legacy if you get it?

No cap, I went from 55 > 56 today and I'm still 50.

There was a dev post about this yesterday. Repeating space missions now gives you no credits. BUT the credit rewards for the daily/weekly space mission quests has been raised significantly.
