Only interesting part of your post is the bit about REing items which start with other than green colour. Say a purple item crafted from purple recipe could be REd into classic redoubt/overkill/critical version of that purple item and then again into the 15 more possibilities ?????? Otherwise I agree crafted gear is very strong when a Mastercraft and i find synthweaving / armortech better than biochem if indeed you can improve those BoP recipe purples.

I liked Datacrons overall, collecting them with my third char atm. Only datacron I didnt like is the baloon on Tatooin and the kiosk on Nar Shada. The jumping datacrons where fail = death are the best. If you have trouble with MGGS try spam the MGGS during flight it helps to not reset you to start point.

I read a post where it was said that later some enchants should only be usable for headslots and others for legs etc. same effect different slot only.

I think they get renamed to something else. You can buy rank 23 of any armoring. Edit: Sry I misread mod/armoring.

Please remove airlocks and shuttles!

To make a difference between HM Rakata and NM Rakata they could make NM Rakata drop with augment slot. Or add a NM item drop which would add the slot into the vendor Rakata item. Rakata Augmenter would only work for Rakata and lesser gear so further items couldnt be made better with these by then old drops.

Edit: Sry didnt read the comment above. Its the GRP1/GRP2 thing.

Except Gruul was so overtuned it had to be nerfed few weeks after release and you had to stack ranged/mages. To even get there you had to finish a (heroic 5m)questline which also has been removed with the nerfs. Same attunement was later removed for SSC (for which you had to kill Gruul) and TK where it was neccesary to kill Magtheridon, who had to be nerfed 4x for even top 100 guilds to be able to kill it! Last boss in SSC(Vashj) was bugged to degree it was unkillable for months. Last boss TK(Kaelthas) was so overtuned/hard it was the same. Attunement for Hyjal had to be changed the week first guild should go there as it was bugged and only allowed for 1/25 person to attune every week... oh and the SSC trash on 45 min respawn where it took 35 to clear. JOY spot on difficulty!!! BT on the other hand was cleared the first week it released and had to be made harder where again it was cleared next week by guilds who could afford serious raid stacking in melee for mother shazrah. Others had to wait for nerf. Story for itself were Illidan and Reliquary where Warrior tank was hugely favoured against Paladin and Druid due to Shear-block mechanic. Attunements were again removed later because they have been destroying guild raids. SWP was the only raid instance where I cant remember any serious issue with difficulty/bugs etc. So please explain to me how TBC was tuned and spot on difficulty. Only way I see it you either played for Nihilum/DeathnTaxes/Method/LastResort/Forte/Celebrity guilds OR you did not experience those raids firsthand. TBC was tuned horribly and had to be retuned way before the usual nerfs when new instance releases!

Capital Spaceships behind the "canyon" are partialy the same as those at start. At least some are already destroyed when you appear from the canyon so be sure you devastate all their cannons the first time you meet them. (you can destroy cannons you dont see shooting through the ships to spots you know cannons are) Also for this mission you want all DPS gear for your lvl to be top not just missiles but also the beam dmg and beam rate of fire item. You can also buy the beam/shield accelerator for 30 fleet commendations.

Im 100% positive Redoubt -> Veracity (Shield+Def) works for biochem implants.

514 days but I quit last summer.

You can teleport to fleet ONCE per 18 hours. Make it 30 minutes and then its viable argument. Why is it you can travel from start planet directly to spacestation but when you get ship you suddenly have to run through airlock to get to station? Nothing happens there when you are 50 its just useless running. Or what do I miss? Why do the start shuttles keep the option "travel to fleet" when its not possible ever again and you have to go through airlock? To piss us off?

Congratulations!

I leveled to 50 solely by doing standart quests not a single flashpoint, no bonus series and mostly no heroic quests, no PvP. Only thing I did extra was Space Combat every mission 3x while it was yellow-orange-red(1st time when it appeared, then immediately after as the usual 2 mission pack and then next day before starting quests) And I also did my companion quests as I leveled = no 5XP rewards but 10k XP rewards for most dialogues. You need to improve your companion affection during leveling and you get maybe 2 levels just by doing that.(If you have Ashara buy 75x lvl 1 green gift at fleet) Leveled doing yellow quests all the time but cannot say it was struggle. Did 49->50 on Belsavis bonus so maybe I wasn't accurate - Correlia left me on 49 sorry. PS: Helps a lot to group as you get 100% more XP from bonuses in a 4man party.

Pretty sure his enrage is timed. Seen it on 23% 3% and not at all too.

Boarding Party Hard chest bug cannot be connected to wiping - we wiped 5x and looted NP. Did perhaps anyone who died zone back to instance when fight was still on when it bugged for you(happened to some guildies)? False Emperor Hard worked just fine yday two knockbacks and down he went. Revan in Foundry we couldnt beat - does he have an emote just before he does his force lightning oneshot thingy? Directive7 we didnt even try after normal mode when the cloning boss made like 60 clones of our healer even after dying and Bulwark killing all melee 3x in one fight(not sure here what to interrupt hope its just that). If you confirm its not bugged we will try today.
