I have a 55 Trooper, which is insane because it's probably already the simplest of the classes.

Yes, please.

The lifts on Ballmora are particularly bad, they have two side by side and they are typically in sync. Why have two lifts if they're not opposing?

I miss mine, nobody complained when I fired it off. Want it back.

It's a technical limitation. The issue of having all the servers link back to one database is that it introduces an enormous bottleneck to the system. With tens of thousands people doing many things at once (e.g. opening their inventory, checking vendors, reading mail, moving zones, etc...) there are very few solutions available that can handle that transaction load, and they are all very very expensive. Splitting everything out between self enclosed servers lowers server costs, reduces system complexity, and simplifies maintenance. Actually it can be done, EvE can do 60k+ simultaneous users (and that's a much more robust market) but it's taken CCP eight years to get the game playable (arguably). That and they've spent the equivalent of a Ferrari on their database servers, good luck convincing an EA exec to green light an expense like that.

Told companion to sell junk items and HE SOLD IT!?! It was bad enough to make it unusable, but to call my Party Instigator junk is adding insult to injury. I am very disappointed, especially with it being removed without any hint of justification. Where's the patch note?

Reticle needs to change color when lock is achieved, would make it so much more intuitive when people are first trying them out.
