A New Class: Is It Still Possible In SWTOR?
RagnarAugustus replied to Ylliarus's topic in General Discussion
I always thought an assassin droid class would be cool and it'd be available to each faction. -
What's the point of raids/harder pve content?
RagnarAugustus replied to Pullemall's topic in General Discussion
I have to vehemently disagree here as the gear treadmill has gotten much much worse IMO. I was a progression raider (healer) from a year after launch until I stopped playing a couple of weeks prior to 6.0 launching and came back to SWTOR a few weeks ago and this gearing system is atrocious and completely grindy and RNG based which prevents gear planning for guild raid groups. The new gearing system did a few things right like making everything legacy based but I'd kill for a return to 4.0's system or even the post 5.2 system compared to this nightmare of a system where I have literally no control to gear my main let alone alts for raiding without known slot unassembled gear tokens dropping from raid bosses. Also the removal of set bonuses from my old legacy gear and the old set bonuses on the character bound shells being hard capped at level 74 was completely unnecessary. Unlike pre-6.0 I have no idea when I'll be able to hit 306 to be properly geared let alone min\maxed (I'm currently at 278 gear level starting from 250/252) whereas pre-6.0 we could run a few HM ops to gear a new raid member in rather short order as it was all 100% predictable. A secondary effect of these changes is that it's almost impossible to find group finder raids to include EV\KP that normally dropped in a couple of minutes since there's no gear tokens dropping to incentivize wider community participation. The current system could be vastly improved by removing the RNG aspect..which we all pushed back on during the first year of SWTOR and also when 5.0 dropped resulting in 5.2's player friendly changes. -
This is perhaps the most logical post I've ever read here on the forums! The code is not working for either of my accounts.

Somewhere, in an EA breakroom
RagnarAugustus replied to FourPawnBenoni's topic in General Discussion
Exactly not to mention the new changes designed to exacerbate the gear grind by not allowing mods and enhancements to change gear pieces (such as a crit enhancement from a glove not allowed to go where an alacrity enhancement of a different armored slot goes) which makes min\maxing more difficult. They didn't need to change a darn thing with the current gearing system. -
Let us make an Petition, West Coast Server.
RagnarAugustus replied to -JE-BLAZAR-'s topic in General Discussion
Servers and their locations are a business decision, not something that can\will be affected by a forum petition. I guarantee the cost of west coast servers and the associated taxes and salaries far outweigh the amount of revenue brought in by subs tat would use that server or they'd still have the west coast server. -
200 Kingpin Chips, 14 Gold Certificates, 0 Jackpots
RagnarAugustus replied to Ylliarus's topic in General Discussion
It's pure RNG, last even I won 5 speeders and 4 pigs, the event before that only a few golden certs. Welcome to the world of gambling. -
No the devs do not encourage it, players can be douches and that's pretty much the end of it. Just because devs aren't crusading against something doesn't mean that they encourage it.

Cross-faction warzones is a serious mistake
RagnarAugustus replied to omaan's topic in General Discussion
Me too, now I hope they find a way for cross faction raids so my Pub toons get some love. -
Not needing your support a red herring, the crux of the matter is that Bioware clearly stated you had to log in during "X" time period to get the droid, you didn't meet the published standard so you didn't get the droid; end of story. It sucks to miss out on something that you want but unsubbing in a digital temper tantrum because you didn't get a pet that nobody ever uses is a bit silly if you truly enjoy the game.

Pet companion D-R3D doesn't like gifts
RagnarAugustus replied to hipoenormous's topic in General Discussion
And in the Dread Fortress\Dread Palace\Oricon story line the only droid of his type to speak was Corrupter Zero, would he sound like him? We don't know. -
looking to buy eradicator's gauntlets

Have you checked the GTN? -
Those are great, happy early birthday and congratulations on your impending marriage Eric!

Treek wearing C2-N2 Customization - Butler
RagnarAugustus replied to Screaming_Ziva's topic in General Discussion
A similar thing happened when 4.0 launched, one of C2N2's customization somehow was mounted on my Treek instead of the Bounty Hunter customization and I had the same experience. Too me a while to figure out what happened. -
Maybe it's time to move to a full F2P model
RagnarAugustus replied to PorsaLindahl's topic in General Discussion
I'm with you, the business model is fine and a change to full F2P would be disastrous and would most likely herald the end of SWTOR. These people who want full F2P shouldn't wait for the change, they should just try F2P right now and leave the rest of us subs in peace. -
Don't want to pay real money for it spend your credits on the GTN as it'll be on there soon if it's not there now.

One part of the update that is awesome
RagnarAugustus replied to DragonMsterd's topic in General Discussion
LOL you can't be serious when you say there's been nothing for a while, you non-raider\non-PVP guys got the entirety of KOTFE and KOTET which was the only new things for a very long time. Finally BW concentrates on actual MMO content and you guys act like you're being ignored. -
I agree, if a character has outright betrayed you like Quinn or Koth then yes execution should be an option, but for loyal companions like Ashara and Vector it doesn't make any sense.
