    Any armor in the game that looks like Darth Marr's set?

    in General Discussion

    Posted

    Darth Marr's set is the rare level 50 PvP set called Champion Vindicator.

     

    Currently the closest available set is the Battlemaster War Leader/Vindicator. For the belt, the closest available one is from the Exposed Extrovert set. However, not even dyes can make it match the coloring of Marr's armor.

     

    You all are completely wrong or have never played a Sith Warrior. Darth Marr is in Battlemaster Weaponmaster's gear. The Vindicator/War Leader gear has hood down, while the Weaponmaster has hood up.

    Water Reflections Need Some Love

    While some aspects of the game have been upgraded:

     

    Technical Changes

    Color Palette Upgrade

    I am surprised that water reflections have had no improvement since launch. Regardless of where you are on Alderaan, you have the same 360º reflections visible on the water. Here are some obvious mismatches:

     

    Reflections in water are static and remain in same place regardless of location.

    Even with High Shadows on, character reflections are non-existant on water.

    Water does not properly reflect surrounding environment.

    Would this upgrade be too much of a hassle to look into or is this already in development? I feel this would bring subtle realism to the environment. I'm also assuming that water reflections on all planets, flash points, and operations respond equally the same.

    Cross Story Companion Interaction

    in Suggestion Box

    Posted

    As some of you may know, there are some companions that make a cameo in other companion story cut scenes (Kaliyo in Doc's, Mako in Qyzen's, and a reference to Risha in Vette's). My suggestion would be to allow interaction between character companions. Once completing their story lines, an additional quest should enable particular companions to call on support from others. Not all companions have a link with others and because of that, this idea wouldn't work, but by adding additional story, it would be possible. Possibly worked in with Heroic Moment.

    Heroic Moment Buff

    in Suggestion Box

    Posted

    I would like to start off by say that I like the idea of Heroic Moment and I use quite often, but the standard abilities used by other classes seem a little under-powered. I think the idea of using slightly buffing or adding more animation than the current abilities, would make them stand out more. When using your Heroic Moment, playing the class that granted you the legacy ability should make that specific ability a bit stronger. Here are some examples:

     

    As an Sith Inquisitor, Legacy Lighting Storm should resemble that of the Rogue Cartel Warbot's Lighting ability. It has increase radius and more lighting blasts.

    As a Sith Warrior, Legacy Force Choke should resemble Darth Malgus's multiple target Force Choke. Although his Force Choke is more of a CC as it does no damage to you. When being used as a Heroic Moment ability, it should do some damage.

     

    I'm not sure when they removed the ability to reduce how often you were able to use you Heroic Moment by maxing out classes, but I feel there should be a little more of an incentive to maxing them out.

    What if, class changes (not expected)

    You misunderstood him. He's saying it will *always* work on PvP servers, but fail on PvE servers because the player can easily be unflagged. Notifying him to flag himself takes the whole fun of bounty hunting out.

     

    Although I disagree with his implication that any use of resources for PvPers is bad use. That's just a silly idea.

     

    I remember being a Bounty Hunter on Bria (SWG PvE server) and I was able to hunt other player. They were not able to unflag and it wasn't game breaking. I'm assuming that on a PvE server, placing bounties would be a little more restricted. When I meant more successful, I meant that there would be more PvP action.

    Bounty hunting other player characters would only work on non-PvP servers if the target gets a notice and decides to opt in, which kinda takes the sting out of the whole system. So making a system which will only work on servers with a clear minority of players is a bad use of resources.

     

    How would it "only work on non-PVP servers"? If anything, it would be more successful on PvP servers.

    I was just thinking what if the game was launched a certain way or changed. That way being, Bounty Hunters and Smugglers being neutral. They would be able to go to either fleet and use either spaceport to leave the planet. Of course Imperial trooper would replace Bounty Hunter as the mirror for Trooper and SIS Agent would replace Smuggler as the mirror for Imperial Agent.

     

    In this scenario, Bounty Hunters would hunt other players that have bounties placed by other players and Smugglers would be able to sell your goods like a mobile GTN that you would have to give him a cut (percentage amount that was adjustable by the Smuggler, default 10%) in order for him to have it in his inventory (separate from his character inventory).

     

    From attending the San Diego Cantina Tour this past summer, it was said a dramatic class overhauls would not happen, nor would additional classes be added anywhere in the near future, if at all. But just for discussions sake, what are your thought and opinions?

    Improved companion control

    I liked how in 'City of Villains' I was able to set my minions to "Attack everything in range", "Passive", and "Attack what attacks me". I would like to see at least those implemented, but I have also experienced the points you mentioned. Most of those, if not all, of your preferred settings would be great. I can see myself using them all.

    Chat Settings Separation

    in Suggestion Box

    Posted

    Within your chat settings, System Feedback displays what NPC's say and your rewards. The reason I turned it off was the NPC's chatting, clutter my chat box. Would it be possible to separate these two so that you can see what medals you receive in a warzone and loot you get, from NPC's that won't shut up?
