  1. You don't get it for the op. You do the solo Revan Battle to complete the quest. Go into the story phase where Marr and Satele were and take the shuttle to the Arena. You will face Revan along with Marr , Satele , Theron , Lana , Jakarro and Shae Vizla. Be sure to free them when Revan uses Force Destruction.

     

    The quest doesn't progress to that point though. It stays on the "Complete the operation" objective. It's been reported numerous times already.

  2. Uhh, from the patch notes that went up not too long ago it looks like they aren't buffing the skill? But then again they also didn't nerf Crushing Blow and on the PTS i'm fairly certain both of those changes are up. Guess we'll see if Tait missed some things post-patch or if they just decided to hold back on the changes for a bit for some reason.

     

    Isn't the PTS currently on 3.1.1?

  3. force choke is one of the crowd controlling skills that juggernauts get. It is more useful in pvp situations than in pve situation for sure. however it will get changed after 3.1 update with twice the damage and more threat generation. so even if you are tanking a fp or operation boss, it can be used to augment your threat generation now

     

    I'm not talking about the ability, I'm talking about the point in the tanking discipline that makes it cast without a channel (which is no longer relevant with the changes to Force Choke)

  4. With the changes to Force Choke (1 GCD cast, can move while casting, target remains stunned even if cast is interrupted) Force Grip, which reads "Force Choke no longer needs to be channeled, applying its full effect over 3 seconds", effectively does absolutely nothing now. So while while every other discipline gets a perk with at least some usefulness at level 36, Jugg tanks get effectively nothing. Maybe change it to reduce the cooldown of Force Choke?
  5. DX12 allows engine developers lower-level access to the GPU, avoiding some of the overhead that accumulated in the 20 years old collection of interface-libraries. It's no magic turbo button, it just means that the engine programmers can use more efficient ways to access the GPU without having to delve into OpenGL or Mantle and possibly allow the game to run on a (gasp) non-Microsoft OS.

     

    So what you are asking for is that Bioware hires people that actually have experience in low level engine programming to rewrite all time-essential parts of the engine from scratch, when they rather modified an existing engine back when there still was a huge budget. And all this effort would give a part of the playerbase (Win 8.1+ users) some extra FPS?

     

    I'd say the chance is even less than 0% :p

    Even if they had the budget, they should rather optimize the network code. 120FPS won't help you much if you have a 3s delay on ability activation.

     

    I just wanted to add that DX12 will have absolutely no effect on the servers. Everything about the graphics is done client side.

  6. What I would really like are better trooper helmets, especially ones that don't look enormous on females. The closest we have are these ones, but they all seem a little dented, especially noticeable when they're white, and they have a sort of spine thing running on their top and around the back that just seems out of place to me.
  7. Umm don't you mean YOU CHOSE a crappy name that YOU are now stuck with?

     

    My "usual" nickname was unavailable or something, and I went with the name I always use for my second character. It's not a major issue to me but I'd change it if I had the option. So there are other reasons besides "forum rep", if that's even really a thing people actually care about.

  8. - Not getting stuck on a storyline because of group content

    - In the jungles of Rishi, you see all those roaming animals. Packs of Oro birds or a couple of tonitrans running together. It makes the planet feel so much more alive.

    - Discipline system. Pretty much everything about it (except for balance maybe, but that will come with time)

    - The new ops having original and interesting mechanics (hopefully BW will get the to work properly soon ;))

    - Raid nights with the guild.

    - I've run into some hilarious people in PUG groups. Usually in DP, for some reason...
