Shocking. This kills motivation to do anything in this game except story (1 month per 1-2 years). I hope every responsible EA employee will receive similar letter: "I can confirm that your salary will now be adjusted to 0$ for everyone and has been reset. This will have no effect on you receiving your Christmas postcard. The reason this happened is that since the part of the work is over, the money have been saved should we run more work in the future. Apologies for any confusion/alarm this has caused! Again, this will have no effect on you receiving your Christmas postcard."

Its really nice to see arguments like this: 1. "i just killed 2 lowlevel mobs, the spec is fully viable " 2. "just learn how to use your class" 3. "its goog to see some challenge at last" etc etc All this is really laughable. This game is all about balance. Lets say any spec is a sum of "main ability - single target or AOE dps for dps, mitigation and aggro for tanks etc"+ "utility - a variety of helpful self+group abilities"+ "suvivalability". AP is one of my favorite specs with a lot of fiery damage and mobility. Its not really viable for PVE now. very bad survivalability for a melee class, worst gap closing, no burst damage, no dps buff below 30% target health, no heals or cures, lowest benefit from armor debuff, no CC, worst new talent and tier 7 skills, no group buffs etc. etc. etc. And now our primary ability DPS is one of the worst. Still better than shadow dps (yay!), but with much less utility. How did this happen? Synthetic tests may show some satisfactory numbers, but in real fight all is much worse. Maybe the developers team is not using this spec and just nerfed it to avoid overpowering and additional testing . Its not a direct nerf, but all other classes got a good buff, so its a significant nerf.

I am at 80-90/100 special treasure (not sure about exact number). Currently found 2 turbines(hoth), 2 lifts(alderaan), 1 chasis (tatooine) (it seems its 1 unique Pleasure part per planet???). You can get speeder parts before finishing Dreadseed questline, but after that you get armor pieces with a very high chance and i suppose a lower chance for pleasure speeder parts. Its not good to switch alts for digging after you found some parts already (parts are bound). My digging activity on Makeb is at the same level as Hutt's mining operations there . The speeder itself is BtL.

I have 5/6 parts now. It seems Pleasure speeder parts are rare and always are special treasure and bound. If you plan to start search for parts dont do it on a char that finished Dread seed questline, i suppose you will get no armor and higher chance (maybe, not sure) of Pleasure speeder parts as special treasure. I am already overpacked with Dread seed armor pieaces .

1. IA. SWTOR's James Bond with hard choices and interesting twists. 2. Trooper. This is a MILITARY story and if you are ready to act as specops you'll really enjoy the story. Very good set of companions with a close connection to the story as they are your squad. 3. Sith inquisitor. A story of spirits, rivalry, rise and power. Very solid and satisfying . _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 4. Jedi knight. Slow start but epic 2nd half. 5-7. Smuggler, BH, SW. More predictable and with lesser logic than other stories. More of a set of nice and funny scenes and dialogs, but still very good overall. _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 8. Consular. Is it really boring to be so good and helpful ? P.S. All stories are very good especially for mmo.
