My two cents: Add back the previous gearing system, but keep GC in place as a secondary gearing method not the primary. With the current system in place, my Sage healer I've played for years, which is my main toon for PvE, has yet to even get a 5.x set bonus piece, and keeps getting the stupid greens and blues, and not for lack of doing content.

Will the gear from Galactic Command will be moddable or static stats? Aside from Relics and the usual suspects, that is. Just wondering since I like having legacy gear to transfer between characters as needed. I'd hate to be stuck only being to use the gear (again, aside from Relics, etc.) I earn on a single character.

With the one liner in the notes about graphics, does that mean the platforms for Soa and the rocks for Gharj in EV will finally display properly again? Or this that still on the list of things scheduled to be fixed "Soon™"?

Knights of Sokan is specifically for Jedi RP, but Lords is open for both non-force sensitives and Sith RP.

Yes, the very same. We jumped ship toward the beginning of the year.

The <Knights of Sokan> are always looking for new Force Sensitives to join our ranks. We are a Core Lore, Lightside Jedi RP guild. Master / Padawan system. Progress your character as you Master the Force. http://knightsofsokan.com Alternatively, we have recently launched a sister guild <Lords of Sokan> on the Imperial Side for Sith RP. Like our Jedi guild, <Lords of Sokan> also follows core lore and has a Master / Apprentice system in place. http://sokan.enjin.com/lordsofsokan If neither appeal to you, I wish you well in your search for a RP guild.

I use medium graphics and have had the same issues with EV since patch 3.3.2 last month. (In fact, I put in a ticket about it the same day that has not had any response yet.) Just curious: if I change my graphics settings for this fight to anything but the new medium settings, should it be "working as intended" again? Or would it still bugged even then? If not, please fix this soon, Bioware.

Seems odd, then, that they would add that to today's patch rather than doing it Tuesday when the official launch comes and BW inevitably fixes something else they broke with Fallen Empire.

Oooh; the alert sound is back. I missed that indicator.

I'm just saying.... As for the other ones, I'm not sure why they'd go to the opposite faction's respective capital world. Closest we've gotten so far is the first two Forged Alliances flashpoints in the prelude to Shadow of Revan.

While I had been frustrated by their initial lack of communication about KotFE, lately the dev team has finally started giving us the information we've been asking for since its announcement. As such, I'm willing to overlook the former state of receiving info.

Sorry if this has previously been posted, but I've had this thought while trying out a new healing class. My main healer has been Sage / Sorc since 2.x. I've recently been trying my hand at Scoundrel healing, but unlike DPS classes there are no training dummies I can use to test myself to see if I'm ready to switch full-time to this healer without going into an operation or PvP (which I tend to avoid.) However, on my raid team's training night, everyone else (excluding my fellow healer) can see how they're doing before going into our raid with Star Parse, etc. As such, I would love if healers could get the same type of dummy, where healing classes could test themselves. It doesn't have to be a stronghold deco, and could even go on the fleet near the other ones. Please do this, BW.

So...say, I'm maxed on all three PvE commendation tiers on one of my characters. Will I still be capped on all 3 tiers (albeit renamed) with that character when Fallen Empire launches? Just want to make sure that I understood correctly since comms were reset with the SoR launch last year.

I still haven't seen a decent reason why it couldn't be a perk for subs-only, since preferred and f2p do have credit caps. As it is now, all of my credits are in a guildbank with a dead guild that now only has my alts. It works okay for now, but I'd like to not have lose 5 creds every time I need money on a character not on the same faction as said empty guild. That's why I want BW to implement it, even if it's a sub perk or a perk you have to buy (just like the mounting speeders while moving perk.)

Being a mail reward, would it mean if I made a new level 1 toon, would I get / be able to use the Nico token like all the other mail I get when creating new characters?

To be fair, the new speeder bike from the trailers for VII has already been on the CM for a few months already. Still, it'd be nice to have some more items show up from VII.

Can I get some clarification for my raid team: Will it be just the timed run titles for these specific two Nightmare Modes or all timed run Nightmare Mode operation titles? Also, will the drop rate of Karraga's helmet in KP will increased in Hard Mode when KotFE launches?

Considering they didn't block "Vanilla Korriban" or "Vanilla Tython" or make them reflect the state of the planet post-Forged Alliances (won't say more for people who haven't done it), I'd be surprised if they did it this time around. Mind you, I'm not entirely complaining as my guild is one of those guilds on EH who still host IC events on Tython. 1 Acronym: Lol. That'd only be a fear for those guilds full of what I like to call "special snowflakes" who RP their backstory as being the class stories. As such, there is more immersion and freedom without being inhibited by the game's storyline. Otherwise, no one's RP character would ever age nor would (for instance) RP Padawans ever progress through the ranks of their Jedi RP guild.

I assume we'll start getting more official information (gear, operation loot tables, crafting, etc) about the expansion "Soon™", then? Just curious since the dev team has been so quiet about the expansion for a while, aside from admitting to no new endgame on KotFE's launch.

Hmm. Not quite what I expected. I'd have expected at least the Events page to have survived. But, I guess there are other sites keeping track of in-game events.

We have cookies on Ebon Hawk. Seriously, my guild switched from Jung Ma at the beginning of the year due to the dying population. Some things I've enjoyed about EH: The community is been nice; queue times are decent; dedicated chat channel on both factions to find PuG groups for ops; there's typically multiple instances for most planets. So, all in all, I've enjoyed my 6 or so months on EH.

Just for an extra buffer or whatever purpose it previously served?

I wouldn't mind if it was possible to add the 50 extra Force bonus from the level 50 4-piece bonus to the current 6-piece bonus.

With no new operations in the immediate future, I have a question for the dev team: How will Token gear pieces work for KotFE? Assumedly with the raised level cap, there will be new Basic/Elite/Ultimate PvE commendation gear. If so, will the Token pieces be upgraded to match the same ratings? And will they be available in just ToS & Ravagers or in any of the upgraded operations? Just wondering since I have my full 6-piece set on my Sage healer and I don't want to go back to not having BiS pieces.
