This is really helpful. Since the kicker is what the expansion has done to crit, what do people recommend for crit rating. What is the difference between regular crit rating and the crit rating under the force tab. I need to get a lot more crit into my newer gear, and want to know what numbers I should be looking for. Then it is about making the decision between WP or Power augments.

Yeah this is just ridiculous. Crew skills are completely messed up right now, and the latest patch didn't take care of much, cept REing crystals for artiface. With only 1 planet for grade 9 mats we should only be finding grade 9 mats there. Another issue is it seems that the power crystal harvesting ratio is wrong. The majority of the crystals are blue instead of green.

If you look at the bonuses for some of the missions you can see it says "old" in front of it. I'm assuming we can no longer complete these bonus objectives, which is really lame. How can you do all the achievements if some are no longer possible. Why would they add these bonus objectives as part of the the achievement if they can no longer be done. I wish I could just wish away my feelings, but I can't. It's like when the Jedi Council allowed Anakin to join the council, but wouldn't make him a master. What? How can you do this? This is outrageous, it's unfair.

I concur. Serious lack of nodes with new mats. Pain to go after the ones there are due to likely mob agro. If this is the only planet with the new mats get rid of grade 6 stuff and and more of the new nodes.

I used to get the majority of my stabs from the space mission crafting boxes. Does anyone know if these boxes will have the molecular stabs still or the new rare crafting materials?

Oh ok thanks. So do they first appear at 401, or much later?

So I purchased advanced artiface last night, but noticed that the trainer had no new schematics. Is this a mistake?

So from this thread I am seeing this as the order of stat importance for the Seer Sage. Willpower>Endurance?>Crit>Power>Surge>Alacrity Possibly best after Resplendence. Or Willpower>Endurance?>Power>Crit>Surge>Alacrity Now does endurance become less important, and move to the 3rd most important stat. It seems that in forums people talk about willpower then crit, or willpower then power. Where does endurance fit?

Enhancements I get from quest rewards and other gear have... higher endurance rating with lower stat such as defense (Good for Shadow right?) or Lower endurance stat with high stat such as crit. For a Seer Sage does the crit, or surge/power replace endurance as a secondary stat? Do I go with the lower endurance rating to get the crit or surge/power stat instead of the defense stat?
