Unless you show me a Bioware employee ID with your name on it, what you say is not a fact, its an opinion. Your word is just as good as ours. So please, don't act like you know better than anyone else. Again, its an OPINION. We're not saying we're correct, but we are expressing our observations regarding the matter. As fans of Bioware, it is our right to express/report anything we feel is "off" about the game; and Bioware is more than happy to hear us out. We may be right, we may be wrong; but in the end, it's Bioware who gets the final say. Not you, not me, not us. Again, play nice and don't act like you know better than other people. WE all agree to disagree, so when someone doesn't agree with you, don't take it against them (or everyone for that matter).

bioware!! Hear us!! Pls fix this in the upcoming patch!! >o<

True! But i just want it back the way it was before :0 I was pretty happy last week.. Now it got so difficult. X.x Did a new batch of 20 items today... The Dry Spell continues....

I agree; the theory that the random number generator is broken is the most logical hypothesis for now.

I agree. Something went down during the last patch; that's when I started noticing that the RE chances got WAAAAY too low.

True, that is a debatable claim and I agree; most PVP/PVE gears from HMs and Operations are powerful. But every Crew Skill in the game is innately capable of crafting some rather powerful epic items at max-skill. HM flashpoints, World bosses and Operations drop rare crafting items or schematics. And on a side note, people taking the frustrating route (Crafting+RE-ing) should also be rewarded just as much as PVP/FP/OP grinders. Otherwise, they might as well scrap the crafting portion of the crew skills. Then again, this game is awesome to play! I hope they fix the RE-issue soon because the RE dry spell is killing my character..

All complaints aside, there IS something wrong with RE-ing recently. A handful of players are recently saying that RE isn't providing new Schematics. RE is fun, but when tier 1 items get extremely hard to obtain like tier 3 items, then RE becomes discouraging... Not to mention the amount of money you have to invest in it...

At least you're getting a schematic :0 I've done it 38 times today (again, i counted them) with a basic green item schematic and what do i get? Zero... T.T And I'm broke now.. x.x Something's wrong here.. It wasn't like this a week ago! :0

Well the system is not THAT terrible. I admit to loving the surprise of not knowing the outcome of the gamble. Makes me go "YEAH-BAHHH!" when i get a schematic. Problem is, if RE-ing for blue tier 1 schematics become JUST AS HARD as RE-ing for purple tier 2-3 schematics, then it gets frustrating (and discouraging).. x.x Tier 1 items should be cake, and gets acceptably harder as the item improve. Awww crap! X.x Now im reluctant to RE until this issue's resolved!! Dont wanna toss 35k on an RE binge without hopes of a new decent schematic! Nevertheless I'll try RE-ing 15 items today (just to test it out) and if it comes to no avail im gonna stop until a fix comes out!

Im having trouble as well! I can understand if purp schematics take 100+ REs to obtain. But recently, even blue schematics are becoming legendary... x.x its been 78 REs (and YES, i counted it lol) to no avail. Getting a blue schematic wasn't THIS hard before. Now im getting pummeled in PVP because my gear can no longer keep up.. x.x

For some reason, Reverse Engineering has been a pain lately! :0 base 1 (green) items normally take around 10 REs to upgrade the schematic b4... Now its been like 20+ and i haven't gotten a blue schematic.. x.x dunno if the patch had something to do with it... T.T

Dunno what happened but RE has been a pain lately after the last patch :0 takes around 25 items just to get a schematic! X.x

You're not the only one..

This looks promising.. I remember seeing a jedi knight with a trooper helmet on. maybe if i hide the headpiece with a helmet of that size, it might give the desired effect

Noted And i swear it was the same robe/chest armor (Did an "inspect player" on the guy). Oh! When did they mention about that "option" to make the hood on/off?

I saw someone who has the same Body gear as mine, but had his hoodie tucked in (I'm a Jedi Guardian, and that guy was also the same class). IS there an option on how to make that happen? :0 And yes, I read previous forum posts and I know people say its in the Preference > Social > Hide headpiece tab but that's not it! Hoodies are part of chest armors so whenever i click it, I hide my headgear and not the hoodie.. Does anyone know how to hide a robe's hoodie?

My point exactly Oh well, just felt the guardian was too underpowered during PVP.. But i guess that's the disadvantage when your a tank spec.

These abilities are only active when the opponent is stunned. But even when the opposing player (during PVP) is stunned, these abilities only show an "invalid target" text in front of the screen when activated. They work effectively on NPCs (Except the one's with gold icons, which i also do not understand why its not allowed..) but it would be real nice if we can use them on real PVP players as well. I suppose the Sith counterpart (i think its the "juggernaut") also has the same problem? Please bioware, do something about this. These useful abilities should not go to waste! T.T

I've been destroying a lot to the point that i'm having doubts.. x.x But thanks! ;p Also.. I've heard rumors of armor crafters being able to craft Critical orange gear (with augments)! :0 Is this true/possible??!?

CAn synthweavers create orange gear? :0

I'll cut the long story short; is it possible to obtain an Artifact schematic from a Premium schematic thru reverse engineering? Because i have numerous Premium schematics that i have reverse engineered numerous times to obtain their Prototype counter parts. But i am uncertain if these Prototype counter parts are able to upgrade another level (to Artifact )thru reverse engineering... I have been reverse engineering a tier 1 Prototype numerous times to no avail.. x.x Did i miss something? :0

Just want to get something straight: is '3' the max number of crew skills a character can have?? Is it not possible to have for example: Crew 1: Synthweaving, Achaelogy & Underworld trading Crew 2: Artifice, Scavenging & treasure hunting Is that not possible? (sorry if this question was asked before)
