Maybe I wasn't clear. I was strictly speaking a completely back crystal. I was thinking the entire saber would be AS black as the core of the dark saber. Essentially the outline is black and the core is black. Black Black Black Black Black. All black/.

Saw a player on Taris earlier today (forgot his name) asked Taris Gen Chat if there was a Black Color Crystal. Like Fully Black. (Think Dark Saber from Star Wars The Clone Wars) I honestly think this would be a very coveted item, and would make Bioware big bucks. Granted they may already have this idea, or they see this thread and make it. I see a cool item, Bioware sees $$$$$$ KAH-CHANG!

Couple things: With the new ability "Blitz" You charge forward and swing your lightsabers. Well anyways...Saw a noob player Sentinel use blitz and charged right off an edge right before last boss and he fell into outer space. Laughed so hard. Other thing, was fighting Karraga SM/HM I don't remember, but tank pulled him on top of elevator and then we killed him at same time. When the fight ends, the elevator activates. So there was this giant spider-like corpse with a fat dead hutt going up and down on the elevator. Was in a voice chat with rest of OP and we LOL'd so hard.

Thank you so very much. I posted this quandary in the customer service, the OP in that thread is also me. Was desperate and decided to tackle the problem on all fronts. Thank again.

Hey so, lowered in-game resolution from 1980x1080 to 800x600 so I could do 2nd boss of Blood Hunt {tactical} more easily. Game minimized, could NOT reopen it. Also is changed my desktop resolution. Desktop resolution was easy fix. Closed TOR. Reopened TOR, screen went black, then minimized again and desktop resolution was screwed up again. Help. Changed resolution before many times but never had this issue. >I blame devs. lulz Any fixes? Would like to play what I pay for. Don't mind bugs as long as they are manageable.

Absolutely. I have googled and checked dulfy, SWTOR forums, TORHead, and Reddit for solutions but I have been unsuccessful. There are a lot of threads on this site, and going through page by page is tedious. Though maybe I should hunker down and learn patience. Even times in the past I have tried such, not extensively, but attempts nonetheless and still had difficulty navigating the endless quantities of threads.

Much appreciated. Been having a really hard time looking for my previous thread (of differing subjects)..

Yeah so, I posted a thread a couple weeks ago regarding achievements that I have completed, but are now reset. Specifically killing the wookiee in cademimu 25 times. Now it's reset. I subbed to my thread, recently searched for it, but now I can't find it. I got no emails for it. It's like it never existed ***. Is Bioware like one of those corrupt governments that silences people who speak out against it or maybe censors players and their posts that make them look bad. I could just be paranoid, but I cannot confirm suspicions as I cannot find any rules for forums or guidelines or other info regarding what happens to your thread. In short, I'll make another thread regarding achievements, but where should I put it?

So yeah, title explains it. Grouped up with guildies and gave brief rundown. Tython HM. Guardian Tank, sent/sage dps, commando healer. First two bosses were somewhat of a challenge, but I blame rustiness. Got through them, very little frustration. Haven't done this HM FP in some time. Got to Lord Goh. Followed all tanking procedures. Faced him away from group, spread during AOEs. Use challenging call with utility point that protects when I knew guaranteed group damage was going out, etc. WHAT. THE. HECK. As any role I've filled for that boss fight, I NEVER remember it being that hard. DPS is pretty east, tanking is tanking. Hardest role is probably healer. Everytime I healed it, I had no issue. Literally like cutting warm butter with a hot knife. Members were still taking massive AOE damage even after avoiding Chain Lightning and running way outside of circles. Anyways...Anyone else having massive difficulty downing this boss? Was never this hard for any group I've been in before...I know when new patches are installed, they can mess other coding up. Just trying to figure out why the hell I had to use defensive cooldowns ON COOLDOWN. Q_Q

I've noticed over years of playing TOR that when I'm engaged in PvE, my fps is decent. It's pretty good. Overall computer performance is great, nothing is choppy and it doesn't take me smashing my hotkeys half a dozen times to get my abilities to cast/channel/activate. PvE is great, well supported, smooth. PvP on the other hand... Every time I enter a warzone, frame rates, computer performance, all of that just goes out the window. It's a struggle to maintain decent dps or heals since everything takes longer to activate. Sometimes I gotta spam my hotkeys just to get a defensive cooldown to activate. I'm strongly centered that PvP, considering it's less popular than PvE, is therefore supported less. I have very little technical expertise regarding servers and whatnot, but what I'm trying to say is that bioware hasn't allocated enough resources to PvP therefore making it harder for your machine to process.

Agreed. Overly confusing map, and also for the sorc heals (idk about sage since I'm confident bioware has a massive hard on for imps) are OP. Two dedicated dps with full set bonuses and expertise focusing a sorc and he' managing to outheal AND heal his tank buddy. Literally 2-3 k left on one of them then all of the sudden, they back at full health.

Thanks for this info. I will try it. Though not a fix, a temporary solution until bioware fixes the main issue at hand.

Cadamimu HM, 2nd Boss. The Wookiee with the flamethrower. Got him down, but then I get an achievement for doing so. That's not right, I KNOW for a fact that I defeated each boss in that flashpoint 25+ times on HM. Anyone else notice anything like this? I did notice that the deco associated with the fp 25 completion only mentioned the 1st and 3rd boss needed to be completed 25 times, so maybe devs changed something (always are) and accidentally goofed something unintentionally?

Neck and neck in alderaan match 10-41? Is it? 80 vs 50 heath left on ships, in favor of enemy. Imp vs Imp. Everyone had 10+ medals, we all walk away rich, sorta. The match was very competitive, good players on both sides. Finished off two enemies, get a little lag, little choppiness the moment I die, then get hit with a load screen associated with fleet. Wut.jpg Massiverage.gif There was no vote-kick in progress. I would know. I'm constantly glancing at chat, staying informed on the rest of the players. I can do that because hotkeys and memorized rotations. Multitasking. Seriously though, what happened? Has this happened to anyone else? Sometimes I wonder if there's a dev or two and they're just watching players game and everyone now and then, they'd be like "Hey, Frank, let's screw this guy up REALLY REALLY REALLY bad." And Frank is like "Sure, hahahaha, let's kick him from warzone." Then they 'tehehehehe' for a few seconds and then do a bro handshake.

Update: After exiting the game and reloading/logging, the terminals were working. I also must mention that other utilities such as the elevator switch and other terminals were also not working prior to exiting/reloading. All points are now working as intended. Cheers

Tried to access the Weekly Heroic Terminal (pub side) but it didn't respond. Odd since I was able to use it just a half hour earlier. The terminal is clickable and I know there are heroics I haven't done yet, and there is a quest marker above the terminal, so everything "appears" normal. I never did anything differently than I usually do. >Complete all heroics on a planet >Quick Travel to Odessen with priority transport >Go to Terminal >Repeat I tried reloading area by traveling to stronghold, but that didn't work. I tried logging but that didn't work. I did not check the heroic terminal on fleet and I haven't exited out the entire game. I will try that next. Assuming that doesn't work, does anyone have a fix?

I was in a voidstar match (imp vs imp) and an opposing player claimed another player (sniper) was exploiting a location. Or referred to the situation as an exploit. Anyways, it was at the 2nd door and my team was defending (the one with the sniper) and he was perched right on the end of the small platform. From there, he was in a very good, defensive-strong spot that allowed him to cover both doors with his large aoe (suppressing fire) in addition, he could not be reached due to his cover buff and no one would be able to "platform" their way up to him. I personally don't think it's an exploit, maybe a bit wimp-ish, but when the opposing player started talking about it, it got me thinking and I decided to post here. (Opposing player claims he has reported and successfully petitioned the ban of three other players) But he was on the losing side that was getting totally destroyed, so he could have just been really mad and frustrated. And I'm confident it'd be possible to knock said sniper down with a knockback of sorts, though no one ever did. What do you all think? Is it an exploit of sorts? Or just good positioning and intelligent strategy.

Forgot to mention bioware made an absolutely brilliant decision to lump a crap ton of schematics into one category and called it "archived." It was just fine leaving them under their original categories. Has anyone at bioware heard the saying "If it ain't broke, don't fix it." ?? Sorry, just a little agitated. Trying to boost the stats on my gear but the armorings on the gtn (for level 30 blues) are 20-30k.

Once again there isn't a crafting thread for me to put this in, but regardless I think it's a bug. Trying to craft Prototype Versatile 15 armorings but can neither find the schematics from the trainer nor in my own list or schematics. I know for a fact I trained them. The trainer has all the resistive types, but no versatile ones. This isn't the first time this sort of thing has happened. Looking through biochem schematic lists and I'm pretty sure I'm missing a few. I'm betting I'm probably the only one dealing with this issue, just my luck. Hopefully there's a reason or a solution. I checked all tabs in crafting window and found nothing.

I discovered the Belsavis Eradication achievement (defeat 5000 NPCs) is worth five points. 5 points. I then discovered the Corellia Eradication achievement (defeat 5000 NPCs) is worth a whopping 50 points 50 points They are essentially the same in purpose and structure, but worth different grants. y tho?

Can we get a thread specifically for achievements? I feel like anything directly relating to them are overlooked or the vast majority of players don't pay attention to them since there isn't too much to gain from them other than bragging rights or whatnot. I would personally like a thread just for achievements. Can talk about bugs, methods, strategies, and everything else regarding this aspect of the game. Mostly I'm forced to post a new thread under bug reports/off topic and they're always lost in the vastness of other thread about players looking for a girlfriend or some other stupid crap that is quite literally and appropriately, off topic.

Oh wow I never noticed that before. Thank you for clarifying.

Not a big deal since I typically use Marksman for regular questing and not for Ops or flashpoints. But I've noticed on a few occasions when I activate illegal mods and then hit penetrating roundsm, the illegal mods ability interrupts the channel for penetrating rounds. Like I said not a big deal for the heroic 2+ But it is somewhat inconvenient. I think it may be due to the action that accompanies the illegal mod ability where your toon twirls their blasters. Anyone else see this? Also, I will occasionally use thermal grenade (nevermind why, that's not the point) but the times I do use it, its AOE damage only seems to happen every one out of two times, again, not terribly inconvenient, but nevertheless something that shouldn't be, but is. I see the floating numbers only on one NPC while there are others within a meter of my target. I experimented several times to see if I was damage these groups with the thermal grenade and tab targeting each target and inspecting for damage, to which there was none. Anyone else seeing this also?

Dear Devs Today I was achievement hunting on Corellia. It's not the first time being on the planet, but I will say, navigating the roads and buildings on that planet is one of my biggest rage-makers when I play TOR. Please do not use Corellia as a blueprint or as an example to model other planets, worlds, or maps as. The layout of such makes no sense. Literally. Sincerely, Everyone. P.S. How would you like it if you had to get to work, but instead of taking a road straight to it, you had to take a dozen roads and turns and drive several extra miles just to get on the same block as your workplace? Doesn't feel good does it?
