There have been a few people with your exact problem recently so your not alone, there are a few graphics changes and fixes in 2.3, so hopefully they will solve these problems. If you haven't already you may want to try updating or rolling back your graphic card's driver (don't use beta drivers), it may not work but it's work a shot.

They are or at least should (they have in the past) unlock in the collections the same way no matter where you purchase them from. The rule is if the item is exclusive to the vendor it cannot be copied through collections, otherwise there should be no problem. Recently there has been a bug that causes the collections to take sometime to update and unlock (or you can restart the game or logout of your server, not just your character) to force it to update. Also because the masks are considered a lore item they cannot be dyed intentionally, it was not an oversight.

You may want to try in the Harbinger server's forum also. Here

Many players still make mirrored ACs on different factions, mainly for the story, achievements and the legacy.

How much did you add to the RAM drive? It should be no more than 1gb, which is local apps and/or the diskcache and no more. Also you shouldn't be running any other programs like a web browser or iTunes etc, it's a compromise but if you only use it in a raid or such it may still help.

More RAM is always good but don't go adding random sticks to any empty slot, make sure all the sticks are the same speed and make sure you keep the sticks in the same channels. I also highly recommend SWTOR Unleashed, it can make a huge impact to fps in some cases http://www.swtor.com/community/showthread.php?t=529567

Well you can start with the expansion, if you don't already have it you can take a look at it here HERE You can also find some more information about the new gear and progression HERE And see here for the major game updates There have been lots of great additions added recently with 2 big patches on the horizon see Summer of SWTOR Of cause the best thing to do is get in game and see how you like it.

Seems fine to me. http://www.swtor.com/server-status

Login to the launcher, before you hit play click the small cog button around the lower left side of the window to start the repair. Also you may want to make sure you not running any other programs that may interfere with the game (at least until it starts up anyway).

Have you tried quick travel or your fleet pass? Also group finder should be able to take you out.

The story modes for the new Czerka Flashpoints are role-neutral, will be interesting to see how that works out.

You can purchase the field respec perk from the legacy character perks section, it allows you to respec anywhere anytime for free for subscribers.

Well if you don't buy then from this website you could buy Cartel Coin Cards. Achievement grant very little and are more of a 'bonus' thing not a continuous supply. If you can't actually buy them in anyway the best thing to do would be to increase your monthly grant of complementary coins, as a subscriber you should already get 500 coins (or more depending on your subscription, see here) you can also use a physical or mobile (free) security key which will add another 100 each month and also using the Friends of SWTOR program will also grant you extra coins.

Yes, although power (overkill augments) is another valid option. It just depends on how you spec.

Level 50 is just a stepping stone, now you can start doing the easier Operations and hard mode Flashpoints, Level 55 is now the real end game where you have lots and lots of things you can do in addition to Ops and FPs, you have end game PvP, daily areas with daily and weekly quests, Macrobinocular and seeker droid quest lines etc. There is also lots of little "extra" stuff you can go hunting for like datacrons, codexes and achievements and of cause level another character for all the benifites of the legacy system and also to experience all the other stories too.

Just a tip, you can use the games built in FPS meter, just press Ctrl + Shift + F and it will appear in the lower left corner of the game window.

I stand corrected.. no I can't find it, I was sure.. anyway it would be a nice option to have even though I never really use it.

Here's some good info about them. http://dulfy.net/2013/06/03/swtor-walmart-now-sells-cartel-coin-cards-bundled-with-glided-flutterplume/

Yes, although you'll probably want to run it on medium to low graphics settings for better performance. Minimum system specifications are listed here http://www.swtor.com/support/helpcenter/2029

For Jedi Knights the ability is call Force Might, see http://db.darthhater.com/abilities/852/force_might/

All account unlocks are persistent after your subscription ends.

You can reset your skill tree at the Skill mentor on the fleet (Combat Training PvP area) or purchase the Field respecialisation in the character perks section of your legacy to reset your trees anywhere.

See http://www.swtor.com/rothc for the expansion and more info.
