I'm not super opposed to a server merge, as there are Flashpoints that I've never been able to launch or try and this will help, but I would like to have some sort of designated RP hub on one of the servers. A previous poster suggested a one month transfer (one way) to ensure commitment, and I'd go for that. I guess the more vocal RPers (from Ebon Hawk in my case) will end up somewhere as they do, just wish there were a separate RP server.

This describes me to a "t" and I like the forums to keep up with changes and to read stuff from TUXs, b/c he's seemingly been around longer than the game code, and his likes/dislikes prepare me for what's coming up the pipe after I patch up.

I only run the main story and chapters outside and odd flashpoints, so yeah, I play the same. I'm not doing grinding for crates and so on for random drops of possible equipment. Just buy mods and slap them in, keep doing conversation choices and move on. I'll get bored at some point, of course, and unsub.

Just for my own reference. As someone that just does story content and never OPs and just very occasionally warzones, do I need to worry about these crates at all? Usual example of gameplay: login, make a new alt, run it through stuff, do some flashpoints, do some GSF/Warzones then log out for a few days.

Giving one free transfer a month to subs would be nice. I mostly play on Ebon Hawk so not sure how low-pop that is, but I can generally get Group Finder done in...reasonable times. Shutting down servers kinda sucks, they tend to generate their own communities and rivalries.

The blade would be purple interior with bright white trim. The hit itself would look like one of those old sabers with the handguard, jewel-encrusted and so on. The activation button would be just on the interior under the protective handguard. I'd call it Love, as it conquers all...

Just from my own opinion, I loved when the old packs made a comeback every now and then. I'd buy a few and take the odds and go from there. That the old packs included Cartel Certificates was even more appealing. I'll likely grab a hypercrate of some new stuff and see what the fuss is with the cubes, but so far I'm not too warm on the idea. I'd rather just have newer stuff from new packs and older stuff from old packs. Unless they did a straight "reprint" pack (like some trading card games do) where the older stuff is in there but you might have a slightly reskinned version or whatever.

Sweet. I'll log in later and try this, thanks for the kind responses!

Hello all. I am back after a long absence (my last expansion played is Rise of the Hutt Cartel, so yeah...) and the biggest change I see is to crafting. My companions seem to have the number "10" next to them, but when I try to open the skills tab to use Synthweaving, it's completely blank. I did go to the trainer and pick up all my new skills. I was at 400+ when I left last time. Do I need to run through new content to get the Crew Skills going? Edit/ Should add I am level 56 at the moment, so I expect I need to hti at least 60-65 for the new stuff. Thank you!

I haven't finished Trooper because I've found it mind-numbing and I work for my grandma (General Garza) instead of someone cooler. I'm on Quesh though, so I'll wrap it up this week.

This is a lot of change and I'm not sure I'm a fan. Really don't like the fact my crafters will apparent;y not be self-sufficient anymore, since I need to "buy" stuff to complete a craft tier? Hopefully the items will be cheap. Anyways, I'll adapt I guess. I do like that gear is now starting at blue level, that should be a nice boost to armors and so on.

The Qucik Trave/placmeent close to mission is something I have wanted for years and referenced in the request section so thank you for that! I like all of these changes, to be honest. The only murky item at the moment is levelling speed for the 1-60 core game journey, but if it is close to what it is now, I'll keep staying subbed. Thumbs up on the Heroics all being 2+ as well, that's fun news.

12XP saved my interest in this game. Prior, it took so long to level that I was spamming Kuat Drive Yards to get to the next class level tiers. And that was boring as hell. Prior to 12XP I had a level 43 Sith Warrior and a level 45 Agent. I had a few Republic toons in the lower levels but it was just too grindy going through Balmorra again so I unsubbed for a year or so. Now? I have done every class story several times over, with different genders/races and so on. And then again on new servers. I love Flashpoints, I do all them at least once for the story content, but I want to play completed characters with all the powers and doohickys. I'll team anytime, I love teaming, but with my erratic play schedule and prehistoric rig (it can take me up to 4-5 minutes to load into an instance :/ ) not many want to wait thta long. So for me as a solo player? It's awesome.

More than likely my Consular, Mystihelion and my Sniper, Ursule, will be the first through the new content.

Yeah, I totally get that. I queue for an hour or so sometimes just to get Red Reaper or Collicoid going and they never launch. 12XP has to end at some point, I agree. Maybe they can streamline the class levelling so it's smoother than pre-12XP and give the Flashpoints a little oomph as well. I do love Flashpoints, though to be fair I have done Kuat Drive Yards enough for two lifetimes.

Sure. I'll give it a go. Imperial: Pursomous - 55 Sith Warrior - 18 Days. 3 Hours, 13 Minutes. Ursule - 55 Sniper - 13 Days, 14 Hours, 12 Minutes Oleksander - 55 Operative - 3 Days, 11 Hours, 4 Minutes Rostislava - 36 Sniper - 0 Days 19 hours 53 minutes Neg-ronia - 55 Inquisitor - 4 Days, 3 Hours, 27 Minutes La'nikki'thelle-55 Bounty Hunter - 8 days, 2 hours, 23 minutes Nagwar'adat - 55 Juggernaut - 2 Days, 4 Hours, 2 Minutes Republic: Mystihelion - 55 Consular - 9 Days, 20 Hours, 54 Minutes Danasynovi - 55 Knight - 3 Days, 23 Hours, 33 Minutes Neuronia - 55 Scoundrel - 2 Days, 17 Hours, 28 Minutes Bras'kevin'orto - 38 Smuggler - 2 Days, 11 Hours, 1 Minute Hildred - 38 Commando - 2 Days, 7 Hours, 5 Minutes All'ask;aila - 27 Consular - 1 Day, 4 Hours, 3 Minutes So yeah, night and day between my original alts that took weeks to hit level cap and my 12xp ones that took 2-3 days to get there. Really hopinh we get some kind of same boost post RotFE for our new alts...

This pretty much describes me as well. I solo nearly exclusively so that I can read all the text and explore and so on. Very glad I can do solo flashpoints now, it will let me do the story as I wish on my own time (which is getting increasingly limited these days). I still don't like the loss of skill points, but I'm over it, at least.

I'm hopefully wrong on this but I think once your character starts down KotFE you are "locked into" that content and can't go back to the old planets. I'd prefer that isn't the case though so I can go back to old planets and do stuff.

YEah this is really unfun. What's the harm in my 60 doing something far below her level just for the Legacy achievemtns? I am trying to do all the planeteray Heroics now but if I have to team at a lower level it will be brutally boring. You get better rewards from high level stuff anyway. Leave this alone please?

Yeah I'd have to say "no" to this, Marr is way too important to be following you and shooting random mobs. Would be totally immersion-breaking. Now, if they wanted to have Marr help you on one mission of importance, that would be cool. Just not a permanent sidekick thing.

No thanks, but if you are going to do that just have different builds on each character. At each level starting at 10, you can spec out a different build with seperate choices from that tree and so on. Give them each new gear and move from there. Overall though I just like the way things are. If I want something tanky I can build a Jugg or a Mara for DPS.

I was lucky enough to have one gifted to me by a friend who left the game...annoying that I could not equip it until level 50, but it is pretty and pretty sure I can grab one from my collections now.

Going to be honest Eric that as a casual player I am only vaguely aware of Conquest when I get pop-ups in Warzones and so on. I never got anything for getting Conquest points so I stopped caring about them ages ago. To ge me onboard I'd need to get something like a vehicle, stronghold decorations, Legacy titles and so on. As is, I will help my new guild with them but will be otherwise disinterested.

Ordalisk Helmet, Lucien Draay's Bracers, Sith decorations, Vengeance's Unsealed Saberstafff and some Cartel certificates, so decent all around.

Fido is amazing. I'm a sucker for conspiracy theory/wild-eyed raving posts though, lots of entertainment value. On the plus side, this OldRepublic dude is going straight to my ignore list, so goody there.
