Thanks everyone! I guess I became a Jedi Sentinel on a PVP server which has quick match ques. I chose the Crew Skills you guys suggested (the potion effects aren't really being used by me much. I often die. Hopefully I will find more use for more than just medpacks) Do you guys have any tips before I go off on my adventure? I am level 16, with better than average gear (as if it matters at this low of a level) and 3k-ish credits. (i uselessly spent a lot for cheaper gear, mainly on ship parts, and one inventory expansion.) Which I can make back. Soon. I rolled mainly for focus. I also kind of need tips. What can I do to be able to skip side quests? I would like to enjoy the storyline as much as I can instead of running all over the place. I might PvP a lot.

Thanks! By the way, would you guys say a Guardian or Sentinel is more fun to play? So far I enjoy Sentinel, but feel I should reroll as a Guardian. Or should I stick to the Sentinel? _________________ My very last question, is how long does it take to hit endgame?

Much appreciated, everyone. Only one of a few questions I have is.. How useful is crafting and such? I never could pay attention to it back when I played WoW. Crafting and Gathering was a pain. I hated going off the road for a quest just to gather something. I just couldn't bear doing it all the time. I also rolled as a Jedi Sentinel. I plan to go back and go for a Sith Inquisitor, either advanced class, as soon as I get Legacy. I also will grab a Smuggler and Bounty Hunter. Back to crew skills.. Yes, I rolled a Jedi Sentinel. I was wondering what crew skills fit me best? I want to make large profits off of it, but at the same time, have much use for myself. I haven't picked a skill yet, so i'm not sure what they are like. I hear you can make your own hilts and Saber Power Crystals, that sounds pretty cool. Don't know if that's profitable, though.

I'm new, and have seen many enemies of a different rating, especially gold ratings. These are hard. I give a shot on tackling the main guy alone by doing what I can to minimize damage. I like to CC who ever has the most health, then nuke the small fry to make sure I recieve less damage from there. If it seems too hopeless to do it, i'd call in someone to help. Wether it be a friend, guild member, General chat stranger, it gets the job done. This applies for any MMO. It also won't always be tank-and-spank. Plan out what to do. CC the small fry, take down patrols, clear the area around the big enemy. Kite the enemy somewhere in the area with no way of aggroing more than you can handle. Enjoy! -Burnsource

Much appreciated! Though, I actually meant, how should I save my credits? Any big things I should save for? I know there is a mount system starting at Level 25, so I guess I am going to save hp for that. I also will save for bag space. Anything else that is notable and worth saving for that greatly changes gameplay? Another quick question is, what is a common mistake a player could make in their first time playing?

Hello! I am new to the SWTOR Community and game! Lately I have been playing and trying to figure out how I want to play. I kind of wanted help to figure many things out. So far, what I have done is gotten level 10 Sith Inquisitor, Jedi Knight, and Trooper. Choosing an advanced class may be hard. Anyways, about what I wanted to figure out.. What should I create my character to be? These that I already made are just tests. To help you help me find my preferred class, here are things I like: -PvE, but I won't go into Raiding or more Hardcore things. -PvP, I enjoy it a ton. Though I want to be the onewho can win with much ease. -DPS over other Roles -I HATE CHANNELED/CASTED attacks. I like fast gameplay. I prefer to move if attacking, especially in PvP. In WoW I usually like being a flag carrier. While running, I liked to stun people without having to stop, making it much more fun. -Melee, usually not DoTs -I strongly dislike being worthless without using stealth as my opening battle strategy. -Looks, I feel looking good affect my satisfaction in battle. I liked jumping off a height with my Sith Inquisitor and ysing Overloas upon landing. Though, my Sith is not a Sorcerer, more of a caster now. -Decent Defence, I don't want to be TOO mushy, so light armor would have to have some way of protecting myself. Over all, I prefer to go for a Class who Melees, is not focusing on Stealth/DoTs, and lets me focus on DPS, without being too mushy to handle myself. I lean to PvP. _____________ Now I have my class. What should I specialize in? Also, what should my Crew Talent be in this? _____________ After getting all of this down, I must ask, what servers are notable for.. -Friendly Players -Good PvP -Faster Ques for PvP And what server you suggest to me. _____________ Also, how do you suggest I spend credits? Save them up? At what points do I spend them? _____________ Finally, my last question is, what is the best way to meet good friends? I know nobody who plays SWTOR, and have interacted rarely in my time spent so far.
