That's perfect, thank you very much! Also the keybind import thing is so helpful, never knew that was there! Thanks again

As the title says, certain keys like T, and combinations like shift+T and shift+E automatically bring up a menu screen when pressed, despite my having these keys/combinations mapped to my quickbar. Is there any way of stopping them from bringing up these menus? I'm not really interested in tutorials or other menus that are popping up. Would much rather be able to use my comfortable keybinds. Thank you

So I quit SWTOR about a week or two after SOR came out. Now I'm back, but things seems very different. Playing my commando I can't find Stockstrike or the conal lightning attack (can't remember what it was called?) which makes me think that there's been a big revamp in skills. Skill trees are also vastly different. Also the primary stats (Willpower/Aim/Cunning/Strength) seem to have been replaced by mastery? If anyone's able to give me a hand in understanding what's changed then I'd appreciate it. Really wanting to get back into the game but it's a lot to take in at the moment. Two other questions I have are what crew skills are best at the minute, and what states are all of the classes in for various roles in both PvE and PvP? Thanks!

Hi X-trema! I actually applied to your guild about a minute before you replied to me, haha! Let me know how things go, would love to join asap

Coming back to the game after a break and looking for a guild to join! I'm a 20 year old guy from England, played for a couple of years from release to a little after the first expansion, had a lot of experience in Operations and organising them within my old guild. English speaking guild is an absolute necessity! I quit SWTOR a couple of weeks after RotHC was released, and I'm looking to get back into the game. I'd like to find an active, social guild. Actual conversation in guild chat is something that makes me love MMOs, so I'm looking for a guild with an active community and regular members. I'm looking for something PvE oriented, as Operations are my main focus at end-game. I do play PvP occasionally though, so I'm open to a mixed guild as long as there are plenty of Ops to do! I have both expansions and I'm currently levelling up a couple of characters to 60. As it stands, I currently have a level 59 Guardian (undecided as to DPS/Tank) and a level 55 Sage (Healer). I'll possibly be rolling a couple of alts at a later date, though that depends on alt limits of the guild. I have a mic and I'm open to using any program for communication (TS, Mumble, Vent, etc). TL;DR - Looking for a social, friendly community to help me get back into the game after a long break. English speaking. Would love to have a great bunch of people to do end-game Operations with, as well as enjoy just sitting and chilling out in guild chat! Thanks all

QFT. Levelling my Sage Healer was by far the easiest time I've had levelling. It takes longer but you'll barely ever die!

I'd like to clarify that they cannot do that amount of damage every 6 seconds. IIRC, Force Sweep's cooldown is more than double that. Anyway, they would not have the relevant buffs ready for every single force sweep, as the abilities to grant those buffs are on higher cooldowns anyway. Focus/Rage spec was nerfed with 2.0 afaik, though I have no idea why they're still hitting so high. Possibly gear imbalances? I couldn't even guess to be honest.

QFT. The evil Necromancer is afoot.

Correct me if I'm wrong, but I believe I remember seeing something about BW not continuing the line of reusables in the expansion.

Please don't reinforce the idea that EA no doubt have in their heads...

Once again, massive thank you for the help, really appreciate it!

Minus the sarcasm, you are precisely correct. I pre-ordered before the cut off, I should not be punished by their systems. I don't have to justify myself to you, but I there were reasons as to why I did not pre-order before the 7th.

Judging by what Jacen_Starsolo said, purchasing it on the 7th means you should be getting the early access

That's awesome to hear! So going by this, I should be able to access ROTHC in the early access period! Huge thanks for the help man, appreciate it

IMO, if you're taking more than a minute to re-spec, you don't know the spec well enough to begin with. I can respec into a tree I know well in ~20 seconds.

So I miss out on 5 days of early access because their systems or whatever were delayed a few hours? Ouch, now that's a pain in the ***

So I pre-ordered ROTHC on the 7th of January. Having done this, I'd assumed I'd made it into the 5 days of early access. However, now I'm hearing things about a specific cut off time on the 7th January to qualify for the early access, that time being 5:59pm GMT. Now I'm fairly sure I ordered the expansion just after midday (give or take an hour or two), but the purchase confirmation email I received has a time stamp of 8:05pm GMT. Does this mean I won't qualify for the early access?

Love the idea. Only problem I can think of would be animation based. Phase Walk is literally a 'teleport straight from A to B' whereas the whole jetpack thing would have to show us jumping backwards/forwards with the jetpack. If there's some form of object in the way, it could be a little tricky to animate.

They bring in something that's been asked for by a lot of players for a long time, and people moan. They simply cannot win. Plenty of content here, and you moan. But that's fine, your sig tells me that you'll never be happy with the game until they release Pazaak. Stop being so entitled and realise that we've actually got a pretty sweet update coming here.

Am I right in saying there's a way of earning these on the PTS then? I read this earlier but didn't see much in the way of details. Fantastic if they have put this in, though as you said they didn't have to. It's just a little thing, but it will go a LONG way into improving player happiness

Seeing the changes made me so happy. Hopefully, these should make us Mercenaries/Commandos less like lightning rods, and more useful!

Is there a limit to the number of characters that you can copy to the PTS? Thanks in advanced

Did you buy the pack on a different server? I'm not sure whether the newcomer bundle is per character or per server, but there is no unlock/pack on the cartel market (as far as I know) that is account wide. The unlocks only count on the server you bought the unlock/pack from. Again, not 100% on this, but that's what I've always thought.

I've been playing around with my gear, getting mostly kitted out with 63's now. I just thought that before I get too far into gearing the way I'm thinking I thought I'd ask the BH community their opinions on how the stats for a Bodyguard Merc should look in full 63's. It'd be great if someone would be able to give me an idea of the best percentage/numbers for each stat, and some info on the DRs of all the stats, as I'm still unsure where the DRs hit us hardest. Thanks in advance!

This would mean a complete re-working of the classes, new abilities and basically changing most of how things work currently. UNLESS these were added as new ACs. This has been talked about already and some of the examples you gave have been previously mentioned. They won't change the current classes to that extent though.
