  1. I agree the comm limit really needs to be raised, AT LEAST for Eite comms. I could get behind increasing Ultimate comms to at least 200/week too. I am by no means a hardcore player, but I can max out my comms limit in just a few nights of running the available endgame content, which I really enjoy. Perhaps a good solution would be to limit the amount you can spend in a week, not earn. Serves the same purpose of preventing people from gearing up too quickly, but at the same time doesn't punish you for playing the game and running the content you enjoy.
  2. Thank you guys for all the responses. I think the most helpful info was situational descriptions regarding when you use certain talents, so I will try to put some of those to use... esp Saber Ward... I ALWAYS forget to use that. The rest I just feel I use @ the wrong time... like when it's waaay too late and I just spam everything in a futile attempt to save my sorry ***. Also, @ Maliken, I'm totally with you. Vengeance gameplay is phenomenal. Even if it's there are other spec's that may be "better", veng is just straight up fun to play. I enjoy the mobility of leap & intercede, the bursty damage, the force push/choke abilities, and of course taunting, whic is (IMO) an incredibly useful and underrated/underutilized ability. I also like your idea to have force choke increase your bleeds. Now, I am by no means a "good" pvper, but I feel I can hold my own with Veng if I have a good team supporting me. I just don't want my team to feel like I am a hindrance to them because I chose vengeance. I want a class/spec that is both fun to play but not easy to master as well... in other words I have no interest in being a smash monkey, lol.
  3. Hi guys. Hoping some of you can help me out here. Right now I'm spec'd vengeance with my Jug. Overall, I love the class and play style, and vengeance is great fun with some awesome abilities, but I just can't help but feel inferior to other classes, especially in PVP. Snipers destroy me before I can even get near them (since I can't leap to them in cover any more), sorcs put up their bubble shield, other healers out heal my DPS and then I get BLASTED by what seems like every other DPS classes. Now, before I awaken the trolls, I am not blaming the class or class balance or anything like that. Even if Veng Jugs are "inferior" to other classes, I still get the sense I am doing something horribly wrong and I know I am probably omitting some key abilities, mainly my defensive cooldowns. So I wanted to ask the Jug community specifically when to use abilities like enraged defense, saber reflect, saber ward, etc. Most times I feel like I am using them way too late or I straight up forget about them. Also would your answers differ for PVE? Lastly, been considering respec’ing into Immortal and giving that a whirl. Any thoughts on that (saw some good ones outlined here)
  4. I can confirm this is happening to me as well. Saber throw ability with my normally red blade turns white as it flies but it also seems to fly in an inverse arc... like a screw ball saber, which is actually kinda cool imo, lol.
  5. Insignificant to you, not to others. Looks are important to people in games, they are to me, and I don't understand why it is so difficult to look the way you want to look. Sure there should be rare items and armors and hard to earn or exclusive pieces, but dye's and $20 single use dye's at that is just plain insanity. It was deceptive and not the full truth... which is misleading. That's all I meant Yes price has fallen, but 2M for a single use item you can't even extract and keep for YOUR character is ridiculous. They need to make dyes collectible and bound to legacy. I think I could live with the prices then. As for the # of black/black's on GTN, I believe you will see that fall more and more. I'm not sure how well they sell or how fast they move, but I believe plenty of people purchased them during the short window they were available from the CM and that is why you see more posted on the GTN. For a week and a half time prior to their limited release, there were no black dyes on GTN for my server. Never give up or it will never change. I know how you feel, but the only way they will truly listen is if you impact their bottom line. So long as fools keep falling for their gambling packs and over priced CM garbage, things will never change. But if you unsub and tell em why and spread the word here. At least that is doing something. It's their choice if they hear us, but it's our choice if we continue to support their game. If enough people feel that way, then they HAVE to change.
  6. Where is all the continued outrage over this? First they mislead us and say they'll be available on the CM, then they back track and say it was only for a limited release? I unsubbed immediately after this debacle and do not intend to resub until something is done about it. The 2k CC cost is pretty steep, but I could live with it if it were bound to your legacy and not only a single use! The fact that it's a single use vanity item for $20 is the absolute definition of insanity and greed! What ever happened to the MICRO in microtransactions? Get with the program BW, DO SOMETHING to make your fan base happy. And anyone who's as peeved at this as I am, the only way to make them understand is to stop buying their stupid gambling dye packs, stop supporting the CM all together, and unsub. The choice is yours, but unfortunately they'll never listen until you impact their bottom line.
  7. Fixed, lol But on a serious or more constructive note... I can't even tell you how welcomed these would be by the community! Thank you to whoever posted this link. At least we can dream right? http://warpedproductions.echonetwork.net/screenshots/jedirobestsl.jpg Also, I've seen it suggested here in the forums before, but we've been waiting for a hood toggle option for an eternity. Why can't BW just add an orange 'hood' head piece that simply lays like a hood on w/e armor you want?!
  8. Just to keep this thread going, I wanted to comment on my disappointment with the new buff/debuff/proc size scaling. While it allows you to make them larger or smaller, I would also have liked to have been able to MOVE them from the bar all together and put it somewhere more visible! At the very least, we need flashing proc's imo
  9. Keep up the requests guys. The only way we can get the things we want is if we are vocal about it. Something else I would like to see is a separation of color and stat crystals. I though this was mentioned a while back? Probably should have been implemented in the game this way originally, would have been much less complex.
  10. Looks like we got quite a list. Anyone else have something to add... ... maybe a Dev, maybe... BTW, LOVE the new sith warrior armor! PHENOMENAL! THANK YOU!
  11. thanks, I thought so too! Def agree with you on the neutral or 'grey' toons. I don't see why they couldnt allow the same type things for them as well. Personally, I'd just have liked to semi dark jedi with a few lightning abilities, or an inquisitor that could bash you with a rock that he pulls out of the ground and knocks you upside the head with (I love my inqu, but I feel like its actually a little too much lightning... be nice to mix it up, spread the lightning love to other toons!
  12. Thanks for the feedback, I hadn't actually seen dev responses to the legacy codex or definitively "NO" to legacy datacrons. Do you have sources? I had heard that 2.0 on the PTS has several codex improvements and better datacron tracking, but not the stat buffs from datacrons, atleast not for 2.0? But I had not heard a definitive no to shared legacy datacron stats. If they're worried about new or lower level characters being OP, I suggested having the datacrons shared thru legacy, but simply locked to all characters until they reach each planet/level, at which point the datacrons available at that planet/level would be unlocked, keeping stat boosts in line with characters level.
  13. Wow, thanks Amber! We certainly appreciate the feedback. I think the ideas here range from short lead times to rather long ones, and perhaps some that are already being worked on. Even if it's only so much as a "maybe someday" or even a "no, most likely not" response we'd love to get as much feedback as possible to items on the list in the OP. And if I'm not being too greedy, I'm especially curious about the feasibility of Swapping Mirror Class Abilities from a developers perspective :rak_01:
  14. That may be so, but to me, pazaak, swoop racing, and other minigames would greatly improve my in-game experience and thus to me (and seemingly many others), they are QOL improvements. Just a matter of opinion I suppose. Originally I thought so too, and I did post most of this in the papercuts thread as well. However, I think I misinterpreted the idea of "papercuts." I believe it is intended to point out the small inconvenient nuances that exist or small convenience features that don't exist in the game today. After some thought, I decided that papercuts encompasses the idea of several small irritating things that are not ground breaking, but affect overall game experience. Some of the ideas in this QOL thread are more around larger implementations, many of which may require significant dev time, but would go a long way towards greatly improving the ways in which you experience and play the game.
  15. Yeah or a +41 end game crystal from the cartel market available @ lvl 10. Really though, the stat boost for datacrons is not MASSIVE. And I would be ok if the stat's were locked for each legacy character until they reach the planet said datacrons are on. That way instead of hunting them for the nth time, you get a small stat buff in line with your level every new planet you start. Also, if someone is going to share alt's, that is their choice. It's their account after all, who are we to tell them how to play? Frowned upon or not.
  16. I really dont get this argument. We've done the work at least once to get all of them already... several users like myself have gotten some datacrons 3-4 times in addition... It's repetitive and tedious to do it on every character and this would be a great use of the legacy system. Has nothing to do with an easy I win button...
  17. Thanks for all the feedback guys. I'll add a list of most of the big stuff to the OP and try to keep it updated. Would be great to get some dev feedback too! ::coy smile:: Def do that all the time, lol. Same with cursor over group pane... I must look stupid a lot
  18. UPDATE: Very glad to see BW introducing new species (finally), as well as a kiosk to alter your characters appearance AND armor dye's. These are the kind of updates that I have been waiting for since launch, so although it's taken a while, I truly applaud their efforts, and look forward to more ideas from this list being implemented! QOL improvements ARE content in my eyes, especially when it comes to customization! It's threads like this that let them know what we want, so please keep the conversation flowing! OP: I for one was encouraged to hear that upcoming content for SWTOR will include some quality of life (QOL) improvements (see post from Mr. Hickman here). For me personally, this is the kind of content that I most like to see. But the point of my creating this thread is because I would like to know what "quality-of-life improvements" means to you and also what you, the community, most wants. Plus it would be nice to get all our collective ideas in one place rather than scattered threads with three responses throughout the forums. EDIT: Some have mentioned the "papercuts" thread as already being over 70+ pages long and addressing the same concerns for the communities QOL issues. My interpretation of the idea of the "papercuts" thread encompasses the idea of numerous small irritating things that are not game breaking, but affect overall game experience. Some of the ideas in this QOL thread are more around larger implementations, many of which may require significant dev time, but would go a long way towards greatly improving the ways in which you experience and play the game. At least that's just my two cents =) I have several items that fall under my QOL category. Top Three: Shared Legacy Datacrons Swap Mirror Class Abilities Pazaak & Swoop Racing Shared Legacy Codex New Customizable Lightsaber grips and stances (rifles/basters too!!!) Hood Toggle Armour Dyes Day/Night and Weather Cycles Even more far out stuff like color crystal and lightsaber creation systems Also super excited for Barber Shop, but subscribers really deserve some benefits here! I thought this poster had a great idea for implementation! Barber Shop Done Right! Anyway, that's my dream list. What is on yours?! Community QOL Wish List Legacy: Legacy Shared Datacrons (except matrix shards, which should need be collected imo) Legacy Banks (Account storage for rare items & especially for crafting materials) Double XP for Legacy Level X (30, 50?) Legacy Mail Guild: More Guild Functions like Calendar/Guild Missions/Achievements/Levels, Mail etc Guild Mentoring program (Padawan/Apprentice/Master system) Cross Faction Guilds! Guild Ships Account: Account Friends/Ignore lists (cross faction too?) Account wide settings/keybinds Character Enhancements: "Barber Shop" (Done Right!) & more creation options (new hair, tatoos, jewelry, & species) - Confirmed for 2.1 (Appearance Designer Kiosk details from Dulfy here). Hood toggle Swap Mirror Class Abilities Armor Dye - Confirmed for 2.1 Color crystal creation system (or a darker green saber crystal available for my friends who long for this!) Side/Mini Games & Casino: Pazaak/Sabaac/Dejarik Pod and/or Swoop Racing PvP and PvE Arena Duels... Tournament structures even (I suppose community could also organize those) UI Improvements: Global Key Binds!!! (for all characters) UI Editor Alignment Grid (to make things evenly neat and tidy ) Healing UI Options (Health Text on Focus Target, Target of Focus Target frames, Click to Cast, Mouse-over-healing) More UI customization (Color change, Raidframes, buffs, debuffs, flashing proc's, fix for mouse over chat/group pane working with keybinds) Quest Sorting and different color icons for Class and Heroic Missions (on map and above NPC's) User Experience Improvements: 64-Bit Client (that would truly be lovely) Day Night Cycles & Weather Effects Server Transfers Name Changes Dual Spec Animal and multi-passenger mounts Emote/Mood hot buttons/keys Appearance Tabs LFG Chat Channel Interactive objects (chairs/beds, in specific areas I assume, like ships/cantinas) GTN improvements (unit price w. sort) Mod Vendor improvements (sort, sort by stat, etc.) Improvements to Crafting (make it worth it again; add orange versions of green drops and make them reverse engineer-able) Chat Bubbles with toggle on off Starship 'player housing' A new central hub planet for both factions! Color and stat crystals separated!
  19. Simple suggestion. I love that you are adding lightsaber effects to certain sabers found in cartel packs. The one problem for me, is that I hate the way all the hilts currently look, but I love the effects. I think it would be better for you to make all the saber effects purchasable from the CM, and usable on any saber in the game. Plus it would be fun to mix and match. It should only affect the blade anyway, right?
  20. +1 That's actually a great idea. Sign me up!
  21. OP I love this idea. I created a thread a long time ago outlining a pretty much the same thing, but instead tied the ability to swap animations to Lightside and darkside alignment (to give it some benefits). Thread here I love the idea that a dark jedi could use force lightning instead of throwing rocks @ people. This would be a terrific addition to this game, which imo desperately needs more character customization and personalization.
  22. Unfortunately, while I'm not 100% clear, I read in a post here that legacy datacrons would not be happening... which is really QUITE lame. (Down @ the bottom, third to last comment in the list of highlights)
  23. What happened to this thread? Maybe the new BW community team would like to take some of this feedback higher up . I miss the weekly QA sessions, even if the details were sparse. At least you got a good tidbit every now and then.
