[The problem is you didn't give it a try, you went to Ilum, tried doing a mission that was bugged by chance, and figured it would be easier to just come on the forums to complain. There are way more end game gear paths for you to take so you can experience all the content. People will take you through HM's and reg ops in Centurion gear... ] K but why should I have to PvP when Im just interested in PvE, its not like MMO PvP takes skill or is even interesting otherwise I would be playing SC2 right now for that. I want PvE for story and more of an experience not a bunch of chickens running around with their heads chopped off. You shouldnt be forced down a certain path and right now I clearly am, either I PvP for the stupid PvP gear to get welfare runs through HM, or I simply do not progress my character. Good job Bioware.

Why should I have to level an Alt when the legacy system isnt even in the game yet so their is no benefit to leveling an alt aside from getting incredibly bored for having to sit through the exact same story again, and all I want to do is try out the end game content to see if its any good.

Im mad

And not just Ilum, enitre game mechanics are complete failures for MMO standars as well. I got to 50 today, was so excited to go to Ilum, then I found out there was no more class story which sucked but whatever. I was told I had to do Ilum dailies before I could do Hardmodes before I could do Operations, because everyone knows that finding ways to blatantly waste a customers time totally wins you brownie points... And what happens, first three quests on the planets (the only three by the way) CANNOT BE DONE. The crystal shipment quest is broken beyond belief, you cannot pick up quest items and some of them arent even named, they have the whole "ITEM HAS NO NAME" placeholder on them, second quest is a heroic 2 man. Only issue is that its impossible to actually beat with just 2 people. Third quest is the one where you hunt down the Jedi master, except they forgot to make it a fight where an operative could actually beat him....Its a pull with 3 enemies that auto respawn every attempt so you cant just kill the non elites first attempt and just focus on boss for next attempt, and you absolutely cannot do it as an operative unless you are grossly overgeared. The thing is the only way to get grossly overgeared is by completing the quests to get the badges to buy the gear, but you cant do that because you cant beat even the first series of quests. And because of speeder piloting Im broke as **** which means I cant just buy gear off AH even though I have 24 *********** pieces of Mandolorian iron and about a dozen piece of the epic silk THAT NO ONE BUYS, because Bioware has ZERO clue how to make crafting proffessions, now the way they have it set up, is that no one buys anything and everyone just makes their own stuff which completely defeats the purpose of proffessions. And for those who think its a server issue, Im on the fatman server which is one of the few high pop servers, we got "a lot" of people (by biowares standards I guess) AND NO ONE BUYS MATERIALS, NO ONE BUYS ANYTHING EXCEPT FOR *********** IMPLANTS. Now Im stuck not able to progress my character at all because Bioware couldnt be bothered to make sure the first three quests on Ilum were doable and Im stuck being pennyless because of a completely unintelligent game design for the crafting proffessions.
