OK thanks much for the info!

OK thanks so much! I will look for you over the coming week then! Oh, what times are you usually on?

Hi everyone, Is there any kind-hearted Dread Forge Relic crafter on Harbinger, republic side, who would trade the SA and FR relics for mats? I asked several times at Fleet last night but didn't hear from anyone. Thanks very much for your help!

Yup I should give that a try too. Thanks!

Hi everyone, I hope this is an appropriate topic here... Is there any kind-hearted Dread Forge Relic crafter on Harbinger, republic side, who would trade the SA and FR relics for mats? I asked several times at Fleet last night but didn't hear from anyone. Thanks very much for your help!

Oh wow! This seems obvious now that you mentioned it! Thanks much!

Hi Gunship Aces! Thanks for your help in advance on this noobish question! I know that "1" switches between the two "secondary" weapons on a gunships, which for me are the slug and the ion. During battles when I switch between slug and ion several times, I sometimes forget which one I have switched to. Is there an indication on screen which one I have equipped? I didn't notice anything obvious. Thanks again!

Wow thanks so much for your clarification! I am such a noob, thinking I would get both the duration and missile lock upgrades! Also, much thanks to Kuciwalker for recommending the duration choice for the Distortion Shield upgrade!

Hi everyone, I have played a few matches in GSF, on a gunship, and still a noob! I fully upgraded the Distortion Shield on my Gunship and thought that when activated the Distortion Shield would prevent enemy having a missile lock on me. But in several battles, when I activated the Distortion Shield, the missile lock warning still flashed on my screen. So, am I interpreting the Distortion Shield upgrade incorrectly? Or did the enemy fighter upgrade its ability to negate my Distortion Shield? Thanks for your help! Oh here is a related question: if I now acquire and upgrade Fortress Shield, what will happen to my Distortion Shield? Will my Distortion Shield upgrades be wasted then?

Ah, now it makes sense! Thanks so so so much for your help!

Newbie gunship pilot here, So if someone shots you, then hitting 'r' turns your ship to face that enemy, right? Does getting rotational thrusters make my ship turn faster? Thanks for your help!

Hi I am thinking of upgrading my gunship with rotational thrusters. Are they useful? If so, what is the correct way to use them? Thanks!

Ah, OK thanks for your explanation! So the crew member selected as the Co-pilot will have the co-pilot ability activated by "4" right?

Hi everyone, There are a few tabs for selecting crew such as Copilot, Offensive, Tactical, Defensive, Engineering. And I have chosen a specific crew under each tab. But how does GSF select THE CREW once I enter battle? Does it depend on the type of ship I choose? Or other determination? Thanks for your help!

Ok thanks everyone for your helpful advice! So I will go ahead and upgrade the dampener as so many suggested. Next, I heard somewhere about the reflective shield(?) being a good thing too. Then a more powerful barrel roll.

Hi everyone! What are the top 3 initial improvements for the Gunship to spend comms on? Thanks for your help!

OK thanks MW! The outcast helmet does look good!

Thanks for the tip Spartan! However, I don't PVP So is there some other helmets that also look good! Thanks.

OK thanks for your help! I'll go look for that astromech droid somewhere on my ships.

Hi everyone, Thanks for your help in advance! I have 3 characters with maximum crew skills and maximum affection for all companions, and ship droids. I just noticed that only one ship droid has crew skill bonus (e.g. +2 for blah blah efficiency, +2 for blah blah critical) while the other two ship droids have none. Did I forget to buy/enable some perks/legacy? Thanks for your help!

Hi everyone, I think the trooper helmet is a defining look for a trooper. So what are the best looking helmets? Are they cartel market items? Drops from Cartel Packs? Quest/Flashpoint/Heroic rewards? Thanks so much for your help!

OK thanks so much for all your help! I sure hope this SM health challenge is a bug. Our raid tanks and DPS laughed at us since their challenges were not challenging. Both of us healers are scoundrels - we threw the kitchen sink at this healing challenge and failed! If you know the scoundrel rotations - *) first thing I do is to pop Kolto Cloud so that instant cast HOT starts to work while I pump out the *) big scoundrel heal, underworld medicine, *) then another big HOT, Kolto Pack, and *) then the quick emergency med pack, then when our energy gets back up a little *) more underworld medicine, Then the captive health went to 0 and we fail.

Well I have to admit I am not as good a healer as I thought! The other healer and I couldn't heal through this "captive" during the challenge phase of the Raptus boss fight in SM Dread Palace. We were successful in healing through both HM TFB and HM S&V, and we are well geared in mostly Underworld/Verpine with the 4-set bonus. So I am very surprised that we failed at this SM fight! The team did beat Raptus despite the healers' failure. But I don't think we could go onto HM without solving this healing challenge. Do you have any advice? Thanks for your help!

Wow what an excellent story! Like some previous posts, this story would make an excellent trailer (like Deception for the SWTOR intro) for Oricon!

OK thanks so much for your advice! I couldn't find a kinetic force damage proc relic (arkanian) from the vendor at fleet, so finally settled on a Relic of Dark Radiance.
