[BH Yavin Body Armor jet pack doesn't have jet]

I'm going to add one armor set to this list that I spent real money for:

Shae Vizla's Chestguard.

 

The jets should come out of the sides of the pack but they come from the rocket boots.

[BH Yavin Body Armor jet pack doesn't have jet]

Normally I would not post a bug like this, but this armor is so cool and it has a giant jet pack. The problem is that Death from Above and Jet Charge doesn't use the jet pack but instead use the rockets from the boots.

 

Also I can say the same for alot of the cartel and bounty armor pieces with jet packs. They just plain don't have the animation.

[I need help getting the schematic for Blue war hero's crystal and cyan war hero's]

I got the Schematic: Advanced Cyan War Hero's Crystal on the Public Test Server, by opening like 400-500 boxes. I was watching TV and kept copying my characters. lol. Technically it was a test. I also got a Schematic: Yellow War hero crystal after 100.

So I think I remember what happened in 2012:

There was some item, like "Battlemaster Credit" or something, or "Mercenary Credit", that after a patch made them pretty much useless. The only thing really to buy was the pvp crafting box. Everyone bought at least 1 pvp crafting box, then say out of thousands of people, 1 or 2 people got the schematic. At the time I happened to buy it for 3.5 million from an advertisement in the trade chat.

Watermellonfan, I sent you a PM with a schematic screenshot of today so you know I'm not BSing.

Overall, it is not worth it trying to farm it. It only is good with the masses opening boxes. So now, they should just sell the schematics at the pvp vendor to make everyone happy.

["Enable background audio" does not play PvP queue sound]

I submitted a bug report about this almost 2 years ago.

http://www.swtor.com/community/showthread.php?t=456423

A workaround is to have 2 monitors and use windowed graphics. (Use a web browser in the free monitor). Not very helpful though if you are using a laptop/single monitor...

[Tiny QOL Fix - Sort Inventory Alphabetically]

I was going to make a post about this myself. I don't know why they didn't "sort by name" since it's the most obvious sorting method. Each sorting method does not group together same items (like stacks of 99 crafting materials), same enhancements, etc. This would solve it.

[Bolster PVP toggle switch]

I know people have concerns with pvp bolster. Why not have both? A simple toggle switch or /flag for when queueing for level 55 warzones that puts you in 2 different queues: warzones with bolster enabled, one without. Satisfies people with min/maxed or good wz gear, and people with augmented green earpieces who like to rule. Thanks.

[PM for Advanced Cyan War Hero crystal (not playing anymore)]

My character is the only one it seems that can currently make the Advanced Cyan War Hero crystal (+41 expertise) and I'm going to preferred status soon (won't be playing until the pvp patch later this year). Send me a *forum* private message with your character name in the subject and on the following Friday night I'll put a bunch on the gtn at 300k each (the mats are pretty expensive). I'll probably buy baradium flux at that time as well at no more than 40k each.

[Remember that Free Name Change? I do... heh.]

Is there seriously no way to check for name availability in forehand?

Create a dummy character with the name you want. Then delete it, and rename your actual character. That should work.

[Physical challenged player advice needed.]

I've tried them all. Bounty hunter/commando seems to have the most actions. I'll go through some referring to how much keyboard/mouse action. Also to note, you may want to get some foot pedals

http://www.amazon.ca/s/ref=nb_sb_noss?url=search-alias%3Daps&field-keywords=foot+pedals+usb

It might help, and you should be be able to bind them to whatever you want. (bind them to keys first)

A Razer Naga mouse has 12 buttons on the thumb (if you are using a mouse and your thumb works okay).

 

Marauder/sentinel: fast movements with keys, up close combat.

 

Juggurnaut/Guardian: if you pick the far right tree (rage). you just press a couple buttons and smash people. Melee. If you pick the left tree, you can tank where you just go around and get aggro not worrying too much about your dps.

 

assassin/shadow: stealth. can sneak by mobs. requires more character movement.

 

Inquisitor/sage: casting abilities from a distance.

 

operative/scoundrel: stabbing people with combos up close, dotting people or healing.

 

sniper/sharpshooter: mostly staying in one place, and doing combos to kill things. This might work well in your case!

 

powertech/vanguard (pyrotech skill tree) : simpler mid-range/melee class. not as many actions as the merc/commando.

[HK-who? SCORPIO with Mandalorian Wardroid]

I'm an operative healer and decided to load up SCORPIO with Mandalorian Wardroid cores/parts/motors. (These have shield/defense/absorption). The purpose is to solo some heroic-4s including torvix (which worked fine - have to manually bind the area affects and taunts). Here are the stats for anyone interested. I was able to get past the first BT HM mob but the 4 guys by the ship (light side) enraged.

Mandalorian Wardroid Sensor DT-12

Core DT-13, DT-13

Motor DT-12, DT-13

Parts DT-13, DT-13

Ear/implants/weapon are just some 50 purple stuff.

HP: 22641

Damage Reduction: 32.50%

Defense: 13.04%

Shield: 41.79%

Absorption: 42.73%

Bonus damage: 424.8

Accuracy: 99.60%

[I cannot chat]

Did you delete your "General" tab by accident? Or are using the "Other" tab. Also check the general settings (right click on General -> chat settings -> make sure the options are checked on the right side.

[Repeatedly switching back and forth between sub and f2p]

This scenario I might end up doing, and I just wanted to make sure it would work:

Subscriber status then unsubscribe -> f2p and buy stuff (quickbars) -> sign up subscriber again (new warzone! yey) -> unsubscribe later - f2p status (do I still have the quickbars I bought?). It should be yes, but I couldn't test it. Just wanted a confirmation that this is valid.

[Newly introduced hybrid "Trucker Spec"]

I've been experimenting with the jet charge/pyro hybrid for a long time. Jet charge is so much FUN! It's viable because alot of the pyrotech abilities are under 10m and jet charge is good for objectives/healer protection. My last voidstar warzone I did 482k damage... it might not be the highest (another pyro got 50k more), but it's worth the enjoyment.

Keep in mind that I'm full WH with some min/maxing.

[PvP Blunders!]

Was guarding the snow node in Civil War with another player. He opens a trade window and gives me Peppered Bantha Steak to increase my out of combat health regeneration. The windows blocked my view and a stealth took over the node. We both looked stupid. lol. But the steak was good....

[Possibility to open certain windows simultaneously]

You can do this already. Open the User Interface editor and check "Enable Movable Secondary Window". You can save the interface as "Gtn". Then move around the windows and open whatever you want while in the gtn.

[Outlaw's Den gtn terminal sliced! Only 1% commission (to hackers).]

To encourage more interesting PVP, I suggest the gtn in Outlaw's Den charge a 1% commission instead of 6%. People would go there with their 1 million or so credit goods and get ganked by the terminal.
