I'm stuck in quickplay at 0%. I have tried deleting bitraider and all that, but whenever I would try to delete the folder (while the game was not on) it wouldn't let me, saying it was in-use. I uninstalled and reinstalled swtor. Still stuck in quickplay. What do?

My launcher got the dreaded "unspecified error" bug on the update section. I followed the fix involving notepad edits, but this only prevented it from updating at all, still rendering it unplayable. I did a fresh install of the game, and it is still completely broken and unlaunchable. I am at a loss as for what to do now.

no, just for that species. IE, with CC any human of any class can use Bounty Hunter paint/Warrior tattoos, or Inquisitor Scars

so since we got universal cyborg cybernetics via appearance changer: Universal Human Warrior Tattoos Universal Human Bounty Hunter Face Paint Universal Inquisitor Scars Universal Human Trooper Tattoos etc Would be a fantastic QOL change for character creation/rp purposes

I have already said, deleting the patch folder does nothing, and it just reappears whenever I try to start the launcher again. Also, Norton has never caused a problem in the past, as it has been on this computer for at least half a year, and this problem only came up a few days ago.

Just Norton and Malwarebytes. Has never caused problem in the past. I think it is related to the latest patch, but idk Also, can't use that forum, no EA account.

So, here's the full story: When trying to get the latest patch, it kept getting stuck at 62.5%, and after restarting the launcher multiple times, I saw advice to restart my computer. After doing so, my launcher will not even 'launch.' In certain parts of my task manager, it will say that it is running, but it will never ACTUALLY be running, as though it were just a background program. I cannot try and restart, because if I try again without ending the bugged one it will say that 'I cannot run multiple instances,' and if I try again after ending the bugged one, the new one just bugs the same way. I have tried absolutely everything I can think of to get it to work (run on different graphics card, run as administrator, multiple computer restarts, etc.) and none of it has made any difference. I have deleted the patch folder, as other help forums I have seen have said to do, and it made absolutely no difference (the folder has even mysteriously reappeared, because REASONS I guess...). For whatever reason, I don't even HAVE a FixLauncher.exe. If this is not fixed, I don't think I will even be able to PLAY the game. Help? This is my fourth time trying to find a solution on these forums after receiving NO ANSWERS

I also hope that they do better fighting animations. They just pasted all saberstaffs into the animation of single-bladed sabers, and it looked horrible, and almost ruined the experience of playing through as a saberstaff-wielding character.

It will say that the launcher is running, and it will show up in (parts) of the task manager as running, but it will never open. You can't ever try and run it again because only one instance of it can be run at a time. Is ANYONE else encountering this issue???

NOBODY has any help???

Whenever I try to start the game launcher, it never works. Doesn't even show up in my task manager. I can't try again, because I "can't run multiple instances." I have restarted my computer at least 5 times, and none of my other games are doing this. Help?

please?

Whenever I try to start up SWTOR (restarted PC due to troubles downloading the patch [kept getting stuck at 62.5%]), nothing will happen. It won't even show up in my Task Manager. When I try to run it again, it will say that I can only run one instance of it at a time, even though it clearly is NOT running. Has this been happening to anyone else? I have already restarted my computer multiple times.

Is the patch stuck at 62.5% for anyone else? It has been stuck there for like a half an hour...

I, personally, like a Ratattaki inquisitor. It really lives up to the "alien slave" character that is thrown on you in chapter one, and the aesthetic of the race just SCREAMS inquisitor, with the smokey-shaped tattoos and the gray skin. But, that's just my opinion.

I am desperately in need of suggestions for healer specs. I don't actively play them, so I do not know them very well. Detailed suggestions for actives and corresponding passives would be nice, as I am not the best person to refer to in this area. Thank you!

there is a new, fully updated list. this one is out of date. Here is the link: http://www.swtor.com/community/showthread.php?t=891292

I see your point, and sorry about the 30 second thing, that was a typo Many of the changes made to tank juggernaut were made to help them compete better with tank assassin, while still keeping the class unique. Snap threat and crowd control were the biggest areas I was looking to fix, though I could look into possible replacements to address their poor mobility respective to assassin and powertech Also, the damages of all of these abilities would ultimately be up to the devs. Any suggestions?

Character creation and headcannon. Creating an intricately woven storyline involving 30 or so of your own original characters created in the game = fun.

I made a forum for suggested additions to the disciplines for ALL classes if anyone is interested in checking it out. It is completely open to suggestions. I would like to see a buff in critical for Deception, a buff in healing for Hatred, and no changes needed for Darkness, which is as awesome of a spec as ever.

also, there is legacy gear from KOTFE and the legacy vendors on capital planets (NOT the class legacy vendors, the other ones...)

Juggy has the lowest possible dtps, due to their long-cooldown abilities, but long-term, Sin has lowest average dtps
