I just hope 1.3 will bring server transfers. My server is almost dead, and when Diablo 3 comes out I will just stop playing until I can transfer on a decent server.

I love the new time and hope it stays like this for future maintenances, so europeans don't lose the whole damn day.

Hello Georg, can you clarify it the BM gear changes are the ones seen on PTS 2 weeks ago? These ones, to be precise http://mmo-mechanics.com/news.php?article=battlemasterrakata-stats-on-pts

I'm just so tired of waiting, I've been in full BM and full Rakata for 1 month now, there is nothing to do for me in this game. And my server is pretty dead, I can only PvP in the evening. Till 5 PM or so, there are <10 people on fleet and in the morning I am alone.

It is probably bound because it requires valor rank 65, while the other korealis don't. Doubt it will be tradeable, because of the valor requirement.

Haven't tested it myself since BW only copied PvE guilds on PTR, but I heard you can give the item with no mods in it. It just has to be the same item, for example you can't trade a DPS BM piece for the tanking WH one.

The fight is quite easy if you do it with 6 DPS + 2 healers. Just leave your tanks home for this.

100% not tomorrow, but might be this week.

So better hope BW devs are atheists, otherwise there will be no 1.2 this week

The drops are BOP so you can't sell them and they are completely useless at level 50.

I'm pretty sure 1.2 is coming this week, first there was the date on the Novare Coast video, which was later removed, then Tuesday maintenance which is only for website and last but not least James Ohlen's statement from yesterday at PAX. I bet it will come thursday, like 1.1 did, probably with an 8 hour maintenance.

It will probably come wednesday or thursday, that's why the tuesday maintenance is web-only, no reason to shut down the servers twice in 1 week. It was the same with 1.1.

It's been confirmed at PAX East, 1.2 is coming next week. http://massively.joystiq.com/2012/04/06/pax-east-2012-swtor-1-2-coming-next-week/

If you want to play healer, I suggest going with your operative. All other healers got nerfed badly, operative got buffed.

I'm sure it will change, devs repeteadly said in 1.2 the daily/weekly will be based on medals earned (one of the reasons they are adding 16 more medals). I also remeber seeing it on these forums, maybe it got rolled back like the bm/rakata changes or something. Since BW only copied PVE guilds on PTS, there is no way for me to actually test it.

It's about medals now. Also daily and weekly only give 99 commendations each (which is what you get from 1 win in any warzone) so they are basically useless, will probably get removed in a future patch just like the ilum ones.

If you PvP just for gear, you're doing it wrong. I've been in full BM for a while now, and still play at least 10 warzones every day.

Marauder if you want to go with FOTM, otherwise Assassin. Tank hybrid assassin in DPS gear is one of the most powerful characters in PvP (you basically have a tank's survival without losing on DPS) and the only class that wasn't touched in 1.2, which would suggest it's pretty safe from future nerfs. Also it's very easy to get medals since you can get the protection ones, a good tankasin averages 9-10 medals/game.

Really bugs are the biggest problem with Soa - balls 1 shotting you, balls chasing you on the platforms after phase 2 is over, missing platforms, bugged pillars and so on. If it doesn't bug we usually 1 shot him without any problems. Oh and the most annoying bug of all is the battle res bug, more then half the times it doesn't work even if the debuff is not up. This is a general bug though, but it's more obvious with Soa since it's the longest fight, and if you use battle res in phase 2, by the time you reach phase 3 the debuff will be gone but you can't use it again.

I just canceled because of this http://www.swtor.com/community/showthread.php?t=378058. Got 13 days left, if 1.2 is released without that failure fixed, I won't renew.

WZ starting only when full is impossible without cross-server queues. On my server you already have to wait 15 min+ for a WZ to start, if it would only start when both teams are full it would take like 30 min to start a single WZ.

OP, you just need to learn to play. Commando/mercenary is a very strong class if played right. It's not that strong in 1v1, but still capable, the only ones you can't touch 1v1 are healers.

Unless I'm with my guildmates I usually vote for that poor guy who joined mid-game after the lamers quit and couldn't get his 4 medals in time. I think the MVP system is fine as it is, it should be more of a prestige thing then a real bonus since guildmates will always vote eachother.

So this will be the first time in SWTOR history when we don't have a weekly maintenance. Is this a sign of 1.2 coming later this week, thus making the tuesday maintenance unnecessary? http://www.swtor.com/blog/no-downtime-maintenance-march-27th

Only thing known is that they will require medals instead of wins and will reward warzone commendations. No info on the amount of medals required or the amount of commendations rewarded.
