So you're unhappy because you can nO longer one shot people?

Buy the Rakghoul Plague cure/vaccine then. Problem solved.

You are using Arial Narrow for the font I think. That's what is making it very cluttered.

There's something outside the USA? What is it?

I can see how it should be free if the intent is to a) grow the population of some dead servers; or b) if some servers are going to be shut down. But if it's for people who just want to move to servers to play with their friends or whatever, then I don't see a problem with it being a paid service. I just want it in, paid or not.

I would like to have the option for a character transfer, free or paid. I don't mind paying.

She likes having her lightsabers out when I'm around too.

Transfers please. I know it's a pain for them having to manage constantly changing server populations, but sometimes we make mistakes in picking the server we initially levelled in, because a) who knew how dead/full that server would end up being; b) my friends came to the game late and all picked a different server; and c) it's annoying having to level another toon, esp. the exact same toon if you want that for your main, all over again. I would be happy to pay to server transfer. Charge me $30 I will pay it. I will sacrifice my legacy levels if that is the impediment.

I would like to know this too. I doubt you will get a response however. Nothing matters before level 50. Figure it out for yourself I think.

This. From a design point of view I'd say Bioware sees it as a pretty big design flaw. The whole point of a talent tree is that the talents are "supposed" to synergize the deeper you go into the tree. Right now neither Lightning nor Madness have great enough deep talents to justifying investing more than the 13- or 16 points into each tree, and the lower level talents when combined are actually better than a specialization into the either. It was inevitable that it would be changed as the design was poor to begin with. Then again, rather than nerfing specs to address imbalances, it's always better to shift things around within the trees - pull those elements that synergize well from each tree and combine them into a single one. But nerfing is so much easier I suppose, especially if they don't have the time to redesign the trees.

Jaesa can only use light armor, not medium.

I think most people when they have time to reflect will realise the need for patches, especially if they fix things that are broken. (Obviously the response to that could be don't break things in the first place but let's leave that aside for now.) I don't think anyone has a problem as long as the patching process a) occurs at a regular time and can be planned around; and b) is done during a time of minimal impact to the aggregate community. It's impossible to please everyone, and usually the minority inconvenienced tend to voice outrage that is disproportionate to their number anyway. But it's the stealth or emergency patches that have no forward notification that tend to annoy people, and it is made even worse when it occurs at a time when a much larger group of people are affected by it (like an entire continent in this case). If you look at how Blizzard do it, they a) always have their weekly maintenance occurring at the same time each month; b) they have a few days' notice of considerably-sized emergency patches and keep them to off-peak hours where possible; and c) they try and hotfix urgent changes where possible so there is no server or customer downtime. Obviously they have had a few years' start on the process, but I think it's a model that BW can aspire towards. Try and make the changes as transparent to the customer as possible.

Anyone want to take bets on whether the emergency patch will be done by the time BW says it will?

I guess the real issue is that Ashara isn't an evil homicidal maniac.

I calculated this as I was Dark IV when I got her. Each Level 2 Republic Memorabilia gift gives her 26 affection. To get from 0 to 10000 affection you would have to buy 384 gifts at a cost of 600 credits each. So you would spend a total of 231k approx. to get her to 10000. Each gift has a 30 sec cooldown I think so you would have to wait a minimum of 192 minutes + however long it took you to click on the gift again if you did it non-stop. Plus extra again as you will have to keep buying gifts as your inventory fills up.
