Leveling cost isn't high. Just collect materials from Makeb and use companions with maxed affection. Also you can use old materials until you reach 410. Then you need 20-30 crafts to reach 450.

Artifice offhands require small amount of mats.

Archeology node on Makeb are mainly for pre 2.0 resources. The amount of new resources is very low.

Random Number Generator is ok. You are just unlucky.

It requires team play. Many times won matches against 50lvl players, didn't have in the team any 50ies.

The main reason that BW introduces 50 lvl bracket IMO after the month from release date is that they don't want large PvP-queues at servers.

There are at least 5 offensive abilities that are commonly used in the fight. Watch your debuffs =) Telekinetic Throw (and Sorc's lightning) provides instant cast for damage-dealing forces, that's why you see it the most time). I didn't mention healing, shields and other occasional abilities... They are used too. So stop whining

Maybe so, but i have got several Purple Enhancements gained by RE for level 49. "Purple colour crystal"'s schematics is droppable.

Check Artifice trainer. The highest level for enhancements sold by him is 22 (for level 49). They could be taught at 380 artifice.

it's a good way to relax xD

Do daily missions: they grant 4-6 commendations for each.

It's maybe you chose the disbalanced side.

Aug 1, and i'm in! Woohooo!!!!
