It's supposed to be... it's the next tier of content, and by your own admission, you havent cleared the last tier .

yes, but hm fps will still drop Columi, which has been dropped further down the list by the new tier of PvE, so they don't mind as much

wouldn't mind seeing BH comms drop for Nightmare Soa considering that's the hardest fight in the game atm

... The Rakata/Battle-Master weapons have the same grade/rank colour crystal as the Columi/Champ ones, grade 56, giving +41 stat, so the ones purchaseable at the Geologist are equivalent to the best available in game from loot drops. Dev has also stated that the +41 will be the best for the foreseeable future, so don't worry about a +50 crystal coming out in 1.2 or 1.3. They said this in response to some people wondering if there will be a new credit sink crystal right around the corner. After that though, who knows? I might just buy a white one, although it's too bad they're BoP

It would have to adjust the amount of loot that dropped based on how many people were locked out, otherwise you could just run a single person with 7 people already locked and they could get all the loot that drops rinse and repeat with all the alts/new 50's you can find and you could have everyone fully geared in a single week

yea, there's hundreds of lower level mobs -just- like soa through out the game, i mean, he's just copy-pasted from the starter planets right?

how did you get to battlemaster if you claim to not have enough time for dailies?

only from soa and karagga the other 8/10 bosses have absolutely no difference in loot tables or amounts

nightmare mode and hard mode Operation loot tables are identical so you don't need a nightmare mode table full of unknowns

foundry, boarding party, directive 7, battle of ilum, false emp, kaon under siege basically anything that can be run as a hard mode has some decent story element to it some of the others dont even have 3 social rolls total

lol @ 'almost as good as rakata' and you're still looking at a significant number of daily and weekly quests required for battlemaster gear, regardless of how easy the BM valor rank is obtained

notsureifserious >_> turn around and walk back inside, you'll be right where you were you have an unlimited number of 'lives' for a flashpoint, it never resets itself because you die too much

time traveller double posting, lol

fabricator drops 2 rakata grade relics, not a token 18 rakata token drops a week for 8 man

58 credits each is embarrassing at least make it a thousand or couple thousand for each person, roughly equivalent to killing a lvl 50 silver or gold mob

certainly does help like the maurader's op-wide buffs and healing and the sorc's aoe certainly not mandatory

there probably will be rakata commendations with 1.2, allowing everything except the current top tier to be farmed in ops

RNG loot roll system has been specifically set up to troll you on purples. Only explanation >_>

Gotta love it. It's either exaggeration, selective memory lose or just some flat out lies about what gear they're wearing when they wipe. I know what I'd bet on in most cases

Why does the chest piece not even remotely resemble the color scheme for the rest of the set? it's silver with some really dark burgundy on the back, it's barely distinguishable from the Columi piece. Meanwhile the rest of the set has completely changed color to bright red. can't wait for 1.2 edit: this totally feels like one of those 'first world problems' memes

figured I'd post the results of our 10/10 run from tonight just to add something for people to argue about 4 SI rakata tokens 1 BH 9 SW 4 IA 2 healer relics the 1 SW we ran with got 6/8 rakata drops in KP and 3/10 in EV

theres a few of the daily quests that can be cleared in under a minute a bunch easily doable in under 5 minutes and other than 2 heroics that come to mind, none should be taking more than 15 at any point of course if you're clearing every single trash mob in Lights Out and Old Enemies then of course it's going to take you longer.

but you've already done it once on your main obviously i'm sure you didn't do all the heroic quests on balmorra while leveling your alt, or all the normal mode flashpoints on the way up for that matter why would you need to? people already complain that they're forced to jump through hoops on their alts to be able to run the foundry on hard mode, do you want a prerequisite of D7, BoI and FE on normal before the operation opens up?

my theory about voidstar is that they've got the door placements backwards the far apart ones should be near the beginning, the close ones should be at the end hard to stop a group from getting the first few doors, but easier as you go so decent attacking skill will get a couple of doors down, but you would need really good playing to get the last couple not the other way around
