I also would like to thank BW devs because everything went as smooth as possible on my side. They did a great job.

oops.

Bump.

So I still have my ops, FP and space missions passes in my inventory and I got no refunds.

Bump.

There is already a solo mode and it's the story mode.

Same here. I still have my passes and no refund.

The burn phase under 20% is the Revan fight of the Foundry. But worse during KOTET :

There are not bugs but features .

Your inability to do something doesn't mean it's impossible. (French time zone so GMT +1). And I didn't spacebar, not even once and I used my jugg. Back to topic, there's a lot to say about 5.0. Uprisings are a bad joke and boring. The tuning of veteran KOTET is broken. There are numerous bugs (yet to be discovered).

I've finished KOTET veteran mode and all chapters except DK were brain dead easy. So chapter 2 is definitively overtuned. My guess is that chapter 2 is tuned for master mode not veteran mode. I beat with it my jugg in 208 pvp gear and I increased acina influence rank to 15. In comparison, the final fights with Arcann, Vaylin and valkorion were a huge let down because they were tedious and boring.

The only way they found to make it hard is to get the comp being killed rather than the player.

Exactly and forget about dotspreading in pyro.

Well, you can use TEC achievements as a a crude skill check. For exemple, if a player has the ten rounds achievements but no solo ones, you can assume that he got carried. However, if someone has some solo achievements, you can assume that he knows the basics.

The LS gives you the republic squad while the DS gives you the droid. I've already done my 25 times achievements for each so I know it only too well.

I've done a dozen of GF HM BT lately and god, it was awful. Only 3 groups didn't see any enrage and I did dps as the healer. I even ripped aggro from the tank on few occassions. I even had a group with a rage jugg queued as a tank. So I thought the fp will be done quickly with 3 dps. I've never been so wrong. I saw the republic squadron enraging a few seconds before killing them but I decided to carry on. But when I saw the plasma probe boss enraging 40%, I just dropped the group after killing him. Yep, just kill the sergeant but you might want to kill the medic droid first. In the end, I soloed the FP to finish the achievements. Much more effective and less stressful.

Sure but they were showcasing the 5.0 endgame content and it was poorly done. That would have been ok one or two months ago but not 3 weeks before release.

I didn't watch the whole livestream. It was too painful to see the PT tank played so badly. I'm pretty confident that people will beat veteran mode in 224 gear day one because skill >> gear.

No. /5char

Check Jedipedia website out. Check starparse website out. So true and even more true 21 days before release.

I might add that searing wave will still spread incendiary missile while becoming an instant conic aoe. IMO, dot spreading is going to suck very hard. And if you don't trust me, go play lethality.

Quoting Bant :

You know, on some servers, a dozen of returning players is a 100% population increase so yeah, players are flooding back servers.
