Level 50 gurus, one and all,
I am a level 25 trooper (don't laugh) and I have hit a hurdle. I know it will seem simple and obvious but it is so frustrating, I am actually thinking of giving up.
So I was given some advice to upgrade my armor because it is only at a 200 rating and I was told that for my level, it needs to be upgraded if I want to succeed down the road. I went to the fleet and dropped 30,000 credits on some armor. I then scoured the stores for some upgrades to attach. After everything is said and done, my armor rating is only at 115 and it looks as though the armor I went with, took half of my torso away in the process. What the Heck!!!!
The previous armor was from the cartel market and the game will NOT allow me to upgrade it. I am humbly asking, what did I do wrong? I am out 30,000 credits and the armor I have equipped looks and holds up like garbage. Any help would be great. Thanks.
