I have a 400 Armormech and 400 Biochem. I'm pretty sure not much has changed regarding biochem but I keep hearing about 'crit crafting' and 'augment slots.' I went to the gear vendors and I see these schematic boxes for sale. Can someone tell me what 'crit crafting' is? Can my armormech make gear with augment slots in it now? If so, how? What's up with the shcematic boxes for sale at the gear vendors? Like the Battlemaster boxes? Thanks in advance.

'Bout fell out of my chair when I read that. Combined with calling a x-server LFG tool 'a significant technical achievement' and you have yourself one very enlightening interview. One that did more harm than good lol. SWTOR is the laughingstock of the MMO world.

it’s a significant technical achievement You guys are a freaking joke and this one statement exposes that fact for the world to see. Here's a protip for you: there's this little company called Trion, they have a fraction of the money, manpower and resources that Bioware/EA does and their little game called Rift had cross server LFG within the first few months of launch. Then again, for you clowns a "significant technical achievement" would be releasing a patch that doesn't break something else.

You'll notice he said his DPS sucks compared to other tanks, and he's right, Guardian DPS is *** compared to other tanks, it's the major source of our agro problems. I have a Vanguard tank and in similar gear he outperforms my JG in every way. Bioware is a fail company in every aspect, and it starts with class design.

That's the exact post I've been wanting to make for a while, completely spot on.

Game breaking means so frustrating you just want to log out. Every MMO has them, only the bads, like SWTOR, let them linger around for months. F2P by August.

Guess you've never watched Soa bug out or have to reset the zone over and over because the pylons get stuck... Both of which have been around for months and yet...nothing. Oh, wait, a reset button, lol.

1. No, but if you hire pro's they make it look easy. Bioware are MMO amateurs and it shows. They apparently have learned nothing from previous, much more successful launches. 2. And yet, companies like Trion and others manage to pull of almost flawless launches with no game breaking patches. I'm thinking it's because they hired experienced pro's. 3. lolwut. There are game breaking bugs in this game that have been here for months. Bioware is one of the slowest responding mmo's developers ever. 4. Yeah, and really bad things happen to the totally unprepared and amateur.

Sorry but you're pretty much full of crap. EQ, UO, DAOC, they all had the same responses to problems. DAOC had no itemization past level 30 at release and the forum trolls let Mythic have it day after day. There was no generalized 'patience' by everyone in the community, the flame wars against the devs of those games in forums were just as livid back then as they are now. You're wearing rose colored glasses if you remember otherwise.

Apparently there was some Dev blog or interview somewhere that explained the set bonuses would only transfer on new gear sets. Why it wasn't in the patch notes is beyond me, all that I can say is this is what most of us have come to expect from Failware. I imagine the Dev response to you will be along the lines of 'L2P newb' or some such.

I told my guildies yesterday to not buy the GB and to do nothing major because I guaranteed them 1.2 would be a major screw up. They all listened and we saved tons of credits and headaches apparently. To answer the OP, yes, this is the beginning of the end for SWTOR, may she rest in peace.

Worst looking end game gear ever. 1

That't because you can't see past the end of your nose. I personally have 2 level 50's. I have 3 guildies who have played since early release, they play the game for social reasons and love it, they love the game much more than i do. They each have 3 toons in their 40's but with almost maxed out Social. I get 30 free days, they do not. Dev's reward me and not them, way to go ignorant Devs.

Legend.

Here's more: The patch notes didn't say that set bonuses wont transfer with mods on existing gear, you had to find that info out in some Dev blog post somewhere, so many, many folks have spent hundred's of thousands of credits to find this out the hard way. Here's a pro-tip Devs: very few folks read Dev blogs or interviews, things as important as this need to be in the patch notes you nubs. EV still broken in a couple of places, for months now. Healing in PvP is a joke. No rewards for Warzones unless you get 3 medals. New end-game gear looks like crap. Free 30 days only if you have a level 50 toon, lol, how comically sad is that one? Screw you slow levellers who have been here since December.
