Tried the search but didn't see anything. I have all level 5 ship upgrades and just can't get close to beating some of these missions that say they need level 3 or above. Are space missions also tied into your level? Also can I look behind me or slow down for enemies behind me?

I was going to make a thread about this. I always go for the "good" side in the MMORPGs and it seems that we are just terrible in PVP. We used to get stomped by the Hoarde in WOW and now those guys are doing the same in TOR. On Twin Spears I play after midnight and we are just terrible. Huttball is the only one that we occasionally win. It used to be the Voidstar was our best map, but we havent had a win in days, infact we havent breeched the second door in a long time.

I like the FPs, they give great exp, and much much better gear than I could ever get soloing. I do play with some friends though and never pick up group them.

Man, you guys put a lot of thought into these names. I took diggler, because boogie nights was on at the time. I'm hiding the stupid thing anyway so I didnt care

Hey, the crew skill vendors will initally inable you to pick that specific skill. If you pick on of the skills like synthweaving or artifice where you make items, those vendors will then sell you the recipes to make the gear

Haha sorry for the stupid question then!

Quick question I was trying to see if I could solo a bit of Esseles to grab an alt some gear and it won't let me in saying I have to do other missions before I can enter. Is there some sort of lock on the fps so you can't do this?

Yeah I get why they do it...but EQ let you do every profession and I always thought that wa nice. I really don't expect any change, just really wanted to gripe before I create another character and try to level him to at least two companions, it's really just annoying

I am the slowest leveler in the world, but I love crafting. Why are we limited to 1 profession? Can't they put in place a system where we could just pay 10k for the first add on profession, then 20k to unlock another gathering skill, then 40k, then 80k..etc.

My main is a Sage, I have him going with Sythweaving with Archeology and Underworld Trading. I'm starting an alt,probably to do artifice. Since they both use arch as a gathering skill I can just use my main to gather matrials and then mail them to thealt right? If that is the case any suggestions what I should do with the extra crew skill? Is there one that gives more skematics and missions then the others?

Anyone else have a lot of problems with some of these fp bosses that make you run around? For instance I played the fp last night that has the final boss in the rocket silo and you have to run around to avoid being set on fire. It was a nightmare trying to keep my two friends alive watching their health bars, dealing with the casting times, and trying to get out of the fire! Maybe it's just me but is there any thing that I can do to make this easier? Can the health bars of players be moved to the center of the screen? Do most of you just do shields or dot heals in that situation? We must have died 3-4 times before we finally got him, the armor repair alone got me po'ed at the whole thing. Granted we ran it with the three of us and I was only 27 but any advice would be helpful.

So is this what most sages are doing with their skill points? I'm going strictly healing tree as I have a few friends playing and I am the only healer. I'm only lvl 28, I have always leveled very slow, and every point is within the healing tree, I'm up to the mend wounds branch. Is that a mistake, or just a rare build? Keep in mind that I really go into the groups with them healing and doing nothing else. BTW if I get everything within the healing tree does that leave me with any other points? I would like to get some of the bottom stuff in the balance tree

I have two friends playing this game, neither of them are crafting. My main character is usingsynthweaving and I wanted at least another character to craft with..for armor/lightsaber mods and or ship upgrades. My man is only 30, so I don't know how it goes in the later levels but is there ever a level requirement to craft items? If I make an alt, get them to 10 and station them at the fleet mailing them the money, will they be able to make items up to lvl 50

Ex-Eq player here, I know what you, the crazy thing is I miss the crafted super items the most. I remember in EQ there was this shawl or shoulder pad that would take countless hours, fights, and money to make

I just got Therin, I can't stand him. Not because of the reasons posted here but because as a sage focused on healing he really is useless to me it seems. Maybe this changes later on but the one mission I was forced to group with him took forever

Thnks for the replies, will be changing them out nxt time I'm on

I really should know this by lvl 22 but I just got a second orange chest piece. It doesn't have the hood so I would rather keep going with the orginal orange chest piece I have. If I take out all the mods from the new one and put it in the old one will the stats then be the same or do the mods just bump it up a little bit and it's the armor itself that is better?

I used to play EQ and wow but for the most part I was always soloing. For the first time I have some friends who have decided to play this game, meaning I now have the chance to see a lot more content,specifically the flashpoints. Last night we played the intance that has you fighting the jedi sith "wizard" who hits you with that purple cloud and chases you around the room with fireballs. Again I am used to just standing there and fighting so running around like a lunatic t avoid getting set on fire is new to me. My question is as the healer, is there anyway for me to put my own character in the group health brs on the left of the screen? While I'm at it is there anyway to increase the size of the companion health bars? I just have always had a bad habit of ignoring my own health when I group, that would help out me out a lot if I just had to look in one spot to see all members of the party's health, because I am sure that boss wasn't the last to be so "interactive" While I'm asking, the social parts seem to be lacking in Hammer Station and the instance above (I didn't catch the name). The Esselies flashpoint to me had so much more conversation and interaction with the NPC's, does it get any better in the upcoming flashpoints or was the Esselies the exception

Your skill in underworld trading is 30? If so yes it's too low to get the next tier missions. I'm no expert in the game but I think it's around 80 or so that you get tier 2. I could definitly be wrong though, I'm sure someone will know the exact level in a few

Short answer....I grew up and have no attachment to the prequels My first movie in theaters that I remember is Empire at 4 years old. As a kid you just really focus on the story and of course the lightsabers and force stuff. Watching any of these movies as an adult is entirely different...you see how bad the acting and script is in all of them and all those little things thrown in for you when you were still a child now seem stupid and out of place

Honestly I have a Dell I bought in 08-09 and it works just great with me, but I just really care about lag wen I play online games. I think a lot of people here or on PC games in general want the game to look amazing and play smooth because of the money they throw into their machines. So people complaining about FPS or clipping or whatever will voice their concerns while people like me who know jack s about computers and wouldn't even know what clipping was when it was happeing just ignore it and continue on

Being a lvl 19 healer I will have to agree. Usually I have about 15 seconds after my second heal until I'm back at the starting point waiting to do it all over again. It would be nice to not rebuff before hand

Although I've seen all the movies, I never read any of the books or watched the cartoons. I was just running around in game and for some reason I thought of either the 2nd or 3rd (think it was the 3rd) movie where the Senator who becomes the Emperor was talking to Anakin in the Opera house about a Sith force user who brought people back from the dead. I believe he stated he lied a long time ago and since this game happens way before the movies I was just wondering if that guy is in the game or its future expansions? Perhaps as a major boss for Republic players?

I play republic, wouldn't have bought it if we all had to be Empire...not a fan of playing "bad guys" even a light side one. Most people on Twin Spears are playing Empire, we get destroyed in 2 out of the 3 warzones, for some reason we seem to do very well on the one where you have to guard or destroy the doors Edit... I do agree with what you're saying about the animations or what not. As a consular the force push thing where you jump and everyone goes flying isn't very good. The jump should be removed and it should be a hand wave thing or something

Christ I just wanted a game to play for a few hours a night after work to unwind a bit. Some of you take these games way too seriously and need to question why you're so obsessed with performances within a video game world. Aren't there guilds that cater to you people? If the game is that important you should not be in a pick up group to begin with
