It could be that your skill level is not yet high enough to access the next tier. Do you still get skill raises when doing the green or yellow missions?

In the last half of 2011, they had atmospheric flight, you could launch and land from anywhere on the planet, and even go to space from the atmosphere. There was air to ground pvp too, and some ground NPCs were attackable as well - womp rats mostly. And of course there was air to air pvp.

Boosting the reward for sticking it out would help with quitters, in my opinion.

Give us more orange items to make - and allow us to custom color them. If crafted gear would be the way to go for truly custom appearances we'd always have a market. Whatever drops should have a crafted version as well, preferably as an orange item.

I like the game. I just wish there were more clothes to pick from, and easier ways to get them. Synthweavers and armormechs should get more recipes for different looks and they should be able to color their work.

BT worked well to get 750 social points for me and my friends, we rushed through it - one of us took a level 30, so things died real fast.

I'd rather have the game be aimed at the casual gaming majority, not balanced for the "competitive gamers". Nothing ruins a game faster than balancing content for the tiny minority of "professional raiders".

I do not know if it was the padawan healing him, or himself, but I only managed to kill the jedi once I started kiting him around the room, he stopped regaining health then. Other than that I had some non-los foes, but Mako took those. I never go back to the med center in such instances anyway, I always probe, so I did not encounter that bug. I built the jetpack, then simply moved towards the engineer, rightclicking it in my mission inventory until it lit up.

In the "Art of Star Wars the Old Republic" book they talk about "the eventual merging" of the Empire and the Republic. I'd not be so sure that's a defeat of the Empire, it could also be that the Sith get overthrown and thrown out by the rest of the Empire, after they and the Jedi have annihalted most of each other (again).

You can space bar through the dialogue if you grind SP.

This. When leveling it's far cheaper to craft greens and blues than to mod everything - especially for companions.

I like the level 20 pvp coat. The higher leveled uniforms looks a bit off to me, though I'd like a face concealing helment for occasions. As far as headgear, I think the heroic on Nar Shadda, right at the spaceport, where you release four droids, grants an orange headgear piece, though I am not sure.

We can't get different last names for our alts, so why freak out about a name?

I mainly use armormech to outfit myself and my companions, and my alts and their companions. I "overleveled" armormech some - at level 31 I got 300 AM, and can make stuff I need 8 more levels to wear. It's nice for casually soloing - I can skip heroics and dailies, and still get good gear.

I see powertech as the "Power Armor" user, not a blaster user. The blaster is a sidearm, our main weapon is our armor and all the weapon systems (missile launchers, rail gun, flame thrower) built into it. Now if only we had nice helmets before the 30s to complete the iron man look...

Why would a bike be BoP? It's not as if the things are meant to be rare. For the Empire side there's a bike shop on Alderan, where you can buy over half a dozen different bikes for 8K a piece.

I stopped using slicing missions when not even rich missions broke even anymore. I guess slicing is now only useful for slicing field boxes and getting mods.

Or "trade" with your alts.
