Ok, So we now have a new ability called Blade Blitz / Mad Dash.... It has kind of a cool look to it. It also purges movement-impairing effects, so, cool again. But then, on the down side, you can only activate it if the location is suitable, because you are just as likely to go off a cliff, using it in the wrong location, or facing in the wrong direction. What about tanking an ops with the requirement to have your back to the wall? It's use therefore is very limited or situational at best. But now (unadvertised) the Sunder Armor ability is gone and you have to use Warding Strike to build up focus. (Saber throw builds focus too, but to a lesser extent). And Resolute no longer gives the passive 10% heal, that it used to. I read in other posts, that our DPS output on Master Strike (now called Blade Dance) has been nerfed by 15% of the normal damage output. This attack was the staple of many guardians / juggernauts and contributed 30% to their dps previously. I am sorry, but I rather prefer the abilities and setup, the way it was pre-4.0.

I have to agree. All datacrons on all planets together will only add about +100 to your stats. With +- 4000 total stat points your have from 192 gear at level 60, the 100 points datacrons provide will only add about 2.5% to your total stats. Considering the time and frustration involved to obtain some of them, it is certainly not worth it, if you ask me. Cheers.

Hi, I just completed the Trooper class missions for a second time, and once again the ending of the story has left me feeling empty. The problem is certain plot elements that are nonsensical... Makes no sense. Anyone care to clear up these confusing plot developments to me?

I have to agree with those voicing discontent. After this nerf the ability just feels wrong. And the damage is crap. Really crap. It used to be such a cool ability. Now its just dead. I had to adjust my tactics and now use Whirlwind on a mob and single target kill them one at a time. Takes longer but is less frustrating. Bad move BW

I guess that about explains it. So questing & levelling on a PVP server could prove to be very frustrating? Imagine if anyone fom the oppposing faction could take a swipe at you whenever they felt like it? Taking on enemy NPC's and being unexpectedly ambushed by a high level opposing faction player who just happened to be in the same area (basically anywhere on the map), would ruin the experience it for me. PVE looks like the best environment to experience RP'ing. Anyway, thanks for the feedback guys. ConsularKnight

Hi All, As a relative newcomer to MMO I was just guessing in the dark when deciding on a server. I chose Begeren colony as my RP PVE server because of the high population and as it was a RP server. Whilst playing, I once stumbled on a Sith outpost in the Tattooine Dune Sea area (near the Czerka base) and was automatically flagged for PVP (on screen timer counting down from 10). Before I could escape, a Level 50 Sith Master NPC jumped out and killed me (two shot kill as I was only Level 30-ish). I then chose to be revived at the nearest Republic outpost and I avoided that area from then on. A while later, on Alderaan, in the House Alde area, I was farming slicing nodes, when I saw a Sith Marauder player enter the area and kill some Alde guards on the way to go into a story quest area. I was curious and clicked on the Sith Player's companion (to see stats / name, etc.), who then suddenly turned hostile and attacked me?! I was alone at the time, as my companion (Kira) was crafting cybertech items. So I decided - why not? - fought back and managed to kill both the Sith Player and his companion in the combat. I was able to do so, because I was a few levels higher than them - I was on level 35 and they on 30). I noticed afterwards that the my colour of my nameplate was changed from blue to green (same as the Alde NPC's). My question is: 1. Was this supposed to have happened? How does PVP occur on a RP/PVE server? 2. Did I flag myself for PVP accidentally? 2. Can you "PVP" against other faction players, and how does one select or deslect the PVP option? Any explantion would be highly appreciated. Many Thanks. ConsularKnight

Yes. I am based in Saldanha Bay, South Africa. Love the game. Started Playing in January 2013 and havent stopped since. Regards, Johan

Hi. It has been sorted out. My medical probes are now available. Thanks so much.

Hi, I tried the game as Free-2-Play and liked the game so much that I become a subscriber. However I have found that I do not have medical probes. When my character (level 35 Jedi Guardian Defender) gets defeated (killed), I only get the option to return to the medical centre. No medical probes - nothing. I have restarted (logged in & out) several times. No effect. Any suggestions?
