Problem I am seeing is the "increase" to learning schematics is definitely not an increase. One of the first things i did was take several items from my vault and RE them. They did not say "No Research Available" but I tried 20+ items with no schematic learned. Also the off hand LS "redeemer" can't be RE which seems to be odd to me. I even tried RE a 56 hilt and got nothing for it but crappy amount of mats. I would think if I am not going to learn a schematic I should at least get more mats out of a higher level item. But the "increase" to learning schematics is not an increase at all. If you haven't guessed it I am an Artifice.

http://dulfy.net/2012/03/17/1-2-new-armor-models/#2 Just my opinion but the graphics on these models for Repub's are horrible (albeit better than current). It seems both pre-1.2 models and post 1.2 models Imps have much better looking gear. I know this is a varied opinion on this but wow there is a huge gap in look comparing to Imp/Repub. Discuss?

Great thanks, do you or anyone know where these drop? Completely random or on Ops/FP's, planets, etc...?

I bought some unlock-able missions from the market (Treasure Hunting and Archaeology) and figured great these are much better return then the given missions but once used they disappear from the mission selection never to return. Is this by design or a bug? Thanks in advance!

I didn't read this entire thread so I don't know if this was already mentioned but, I would love to see a system with the option to auto-group people for Flash Points similar to how PvP groups you but allows for you to select what "type" you are. For example a healer LFG selects "healer" and is put into a queue, then another selects "tank" and puts in the same queue now you have a Tank and Healer in the same group/queue then another selects "DPS" and so on. I would say add the ability to select which FP's/Ops you want to be queued for. I find it extremely difficult to get a PUG and I think this will greatly decrease the time it takes. Although joining a guild is always a good idea but some prefer to not be in a guild.

I have this problem but did not realize that it was due to parry or defense. I am at 45% defense and I do a lot of parry etc... what I see more often is the mouse click will not allow you to click abilities. I can't really describe how or why but during certain times of a battle I can't mouse click my abilities. I realize I should be using key binds more often but I haven't had the time to set them up. This often creates problems and I do notice a lot of issues with just hitting the keys to start the ability but my character is stuck in a "dance" move of sorts where he starts the animation but stops and the ability never fires.

Thanks all, I know we tried to interrupt everything but the interrupt never succeeds he just keeps "charging" his head-but and 1 shots most.

I have attempted to do some of the Hard Mode Flash Points yet it seems the boss mobs do 11k damage. I am a JKG Tank with 45% damage reduction over 15k HP and all but 1 piece at 126 rating (belt at 112). How do you become "well geared" enough to do hard mode? The people I have attempted to do these with are at 126 rating themselves but we can't keep up with the damage output. For example in Essels the second boss does 11k+ damage. We tried multiple strategies and class combinations none seem to work. Are these bugged or are we just missing gear or strategy?

I tried 8 times and even using the pillars as a hide point and getting help from a sage on my last 4 attempts I would get him near 50% and he would do a force push that would insta kill me. This is game breaking and I can't finish the quest. My other major issue is the mobs leading up to the emperor do an extreme amount of damage more than some boss fights. The mobs are to close together as well so even if you are able to kill one they are out dps you. I dare a dev try this out and prove it can be done. It doesn't matter what your spec is or how well your Droid is geared you have to be extremely lucky to finish this. The insta kill is probably the biggest problem but all of these issues need to be addressed. So I gave up trying and awaiting a fix.

I am frustrated beyond belief with this portion of the game. It's difficult even to get to the emperor, these assassins and droids are way to difficult and seem to do a lot more damage then a typical "strong" npc. I really do not like this part of the series and can't believe how difficult they made this.
