what is going on now is basically 12x xp. the way 4.0 has changed things has basically enacted a permanent 6x xp, and right now there is a 2x xp event. so you better get in on it now as it ends on the 3rd of jan.

A soundtrack came with the collector's edition of the game, but it didn't hold all of the music, and is even less complete now with the added content.

I am indeed using a power generator rather than a shield generator. thank you very kindly for your response. that fixed the problem admirably. Nice quote from American McGee's, btw.

I should have read the sticky to put this in the right place.

So I have a 55 tank spec in full purple 66s with augs and for some reason my absorption and my shield rating are at 0. This is what I have. 1 Adv. Guardian Hilt 28 8 Adv. Guardian Armoring 28 9 Adv. Elusive 28B Mod 7 Adv. Bastion Enhancement 28 8 Adv. Redoubt Augment 28 3 Adv. Absorb Augment 28 3 Adv. Shield Aug 28 This is my first time running a tank, so I just want to make sure that what I'm geared out with isn't causing the numbers I'm seeing.

You could stop being concerned since outleveling content usually happens by playing the content any way.

You can't tell me episode VI didn't make it blatantly obvious that it was for kids with all the teddy bears running around.

Not that I disagree with you, but George Lucas himself said that his target audience was always kids. Even if the original trilogy delves into the darker side of things, it was pretty acceptable as a kids' series of movies at the time. Ever see "The Witches"? That was aimed at children too, and it involved slaughtering children by turning them into mice and stomping on them.

Sure am glad this got necroed again....

Firstly, this thread is gonna probably get deleted. Secondly, fantasy MMOs are so common that something tells me you're gonna be very wrong about this prediction.

I thought this thread was serious until this post.

Honestly, this I would be ok with. I don't like them in the gambling packs, but if there were pure DLC packs, I think that would be great. At least then I wouldn't necessarily be paying 60 bucks to get turn-in missions.

How does that make me a hypocrite? I'm a realist. I know that expansion packs come out for MMOs and I can fully expect to pay for them. I don't mind. I do mind buying gambling packs and crossing my fingers for a set of missions. Honestly, I would have liked it better if they had been implemented the way Andryah suggested, as not taking up the rare slot, but rather the mats slot or companion gift slot, or their own slot altogether for these packs. At least in those cases, it wouldn't be such an exorbent amount of money for 8 backstory missions.

The thing is, he corrects himself whenever it's a misquote. Considering that he has not come in here to say that it's a misquote, that should make it pretty clear that it's not. Is it a significant amount of story content? No. But it is story content. You can dispute that, but since Eric, himself, said so, I'm gonna have to just go with you're wrong. I never said all cutscenes were story content. But these 8 cutscenes are all about the Shroud's story. How can that not be story content?

I don't have a problem with paying for expansions, and in fact, preordered RotHC, but for a small set of missions that provide xp and story content, it seems a little underhanded. I buy hypercrates every month or so, so I was bound to get all the datacubes, but I still didn't like what they were.

To be fair, a lot of the arm flailing about this issue was done by me. I was also the one who necroed it after it had been dead for a month or so because I discovered that you gain xp from turning in all the datacube missions, which I felt, strengthened my stance that it should not be in the cartel market. Obviously, there are disagreements on that stance. it's just not something i was particularly pleased about.

Really? You would quit? That seems a bit excessive, but by all means to each is own. And "to each is own" is the proper way of saying that before any one starts getting up-in-arms about it.

This is a fair point I did not consider. However, if the Ops are moved to 55, those players may also have incentive to purchase the expac.

I wouldn't be opposed to it. Seems like a lot of rework, and anything major done in PvE space at this juncture would potentially be detrimental to the PvP crowd. I think it'd be a great idea to implement making the 3 Ops as lvl 55 and then updating the daily areas to give out basic comms instead of any classic comms, but that'd be a really big patch. There should probably be a couple of back-to-back PvP patches before something like this.

i think flirts only count as darkside if you're playing a jedi

Sweet! Been running her with my lowbie jugg. Her custom skins are nice too. All starkly different from each other.

That part always bugged me too. Why did it take them 20 something years to build the first one... which looked pretty far along at the end of episode 3, and then end up almost completely done in 7 years time for the second one? New waves of space welding technology?

and she's awesome if you give her a whirl.

what's so ridiculous about a woman falling in love with a man who is sixteen years younger than her, yet for some reason they look like they're the same age?

This is how I approach it as well. Or I just ignore that the prequels ever happened. 'Cept for Vader and the lava.
