I took 1 more set. Oddly enough, some mountains have been removed

What's "Sparks of War" in this context? Wasn't that an old update title?
It's a Galactic Seasons mission objective to defeat 25 Champion Guards on a specific planet.

If not already, make sure System Feedback is turned off so your chat isn't flooded with joins and leaves

Fishing Feedback
After fishing , there is a crate that flashing blue. When you click the crate, it opens a pop up inventory of items for you to collect. If you move away from the crate before picking up the items, it goes away, and you're unable to click on the crate again.
Tried it again just now. It's fixed. The box stays growing-blue, so you can click on it again if you slip up. THANK YOU - THANK YOU 🙏

Is that because they're bugged and don't work properly? Or are people not using the convenience tool tin the game because they've gotten used to using secret chat rooms and Discord? There's a huge difference between those two scenarios. Because I know that the VetFP one works perfectly fine. It has a bug that only drops groups into Hammer Station or Athiss, but it groups people up and drops them in a FP.
Not that they're bugged, but suggesting that we'd have an easier time doing World Bosses and Sparks of War if we had GF option doesn't really hold up as GF has proven to be no help in doing Operations or Uprisings. Even when Galactic Seasons asks you to do something like KP SM, or complete 4x Uprisings you'll have no luck with GF.
The Flashpoint queues will always be fine in GF. They're a great way to level up, practice your rotations, collect gear, or look for FP-1s.Maybe it was sarcasm, but it's not a bug that drops you in Hammer Station, it's someone filtering for Hammer Station exclusively.
They're not secret channels, and you definitely don't need Discord. If you're playing on Star Forge, all you have to do is type "/cjoin allies". No matter what planet you're on, you will be the first to know when a group builds for Sparks of War or any other activity.

Why is this still a thing? What are you hoping to accomplish by forcing us to leave the spaceport first?

I"m all about atmospherics and textures. I like the changes.
Have you tried it on PTS yet? Just curious. Originally looking at the promotional video from the stream, it at looked great, and a lot of it still does, but having played it on PTS, it really feels like the overall quality of the planet has degraded. It's a lot more bland than it is currently. All that aside from the excessively bright glowing sun that fills a good portion of the skybox.

I've never played SI and never will. <shrug>
It's one of my top 3 favorite stories. And Steve Blum voices Andronikos. I wish they would have got Steve Blum voice the male Bounty Hunter, I really like his voice.

See I don't like my PC's being the center of the universe, they are not Gods
The Sith Inquisitor story builds you up to feel like a god. And then you have the fun of actually being a member of the Dark Council as you help out on Oricon, Makeb, Ziost, etc. It all gets erased with KOTFE sadly.

Also, I never knew those hidden channels existed, I'm unlikely to ever use them, and using a solution that's already in the game and staring us in the face (Group Finder) just makes more sense to me.
The problem is Group Finder doesn't actually work. We have GF for Uprisings and Operations, yet neither of those actually do anything. If you want to join an operation that's all pugged in the Allies channel. For Galactic Seasons, such as this week, if you want to complete an Uprising, those too are being pugged in Allies channel

I hope that isn't true since this is what they have listed about the blueprints.
I don't think it's true. I did this with a companion active.
On 4/15/2024 at 6:10 PM, Traceguy said:The good news is whatever anti-farming mechanic they have in place, it doesn't seem to include Blueprint Fragments. This time I spent the entirety of the Brrazz's Gift hour in the CZ-198 phased area. I got a little more than twice as much as Saturday. 128 after 60 minutes. I still think it's an unacceptable way to spend an hour in this game.

And of course the 7.5 patch will mean you don't get any access to the new Venture system if your not going through ruhnuk on a character
That's a big problem I hope they solve for alts. On PTS, we can see Ventures are recorded in the legacy, so all your alts can contribute to it. I don't know yet how that plays out for unlocking B3-S1 on each alt though.
I went through Lane's questline once more just to ensure I have B3-S1 on both factions. It drags on and on. And to make matters worse, it's all KOTOR-style dialogue. Bioware couldn't even bother to get the voice actors to act out such an important storyline.
RIP if you don't have a stealth character, because you will be moving back and forth traversing every corner of Ruhnuk for over an hour, and having to deal with the level 80 sponge mobs. I also seem to have discovered what could be considered a bug worth mentioning. Because a couple parts of Lane's questline were drip fed, you have to logout and in to trigger the next stages.

Me too I want planet as big as Yavin 4 at least.
I'd love to get a planet the size of some of the originals, like Dromund Kass, filled with side quests, heroics, exploration missions, and planet arc, and all fully voice acted too.

I can't see any downsides
I'd exploit it by staying level 70 on a toon or two. After level 70, the game takes away the Taskmaster objective from you, which is worth 30,000CQP per day.

This is why we have Allies/Endgame. Just a simple post to that channel "LFM <WB>" and you got yourself a group. You're 100% guaranteed to build a group for The First if you do so on Tuesday, as conquest players are champing at the bit to get that 37.000 points for defeating that WB.
As for Seasons, yes, same thing, those channels are constantly filled with groups doing things like Warbots and Sparks of War. I highly recommend you join if not already.

The warbot doesn't drop loot. If it's supposed to, it's bugged.

Do you recruit in Allies/Endgame? That's the biggest mistake I see with those who recruit for The First on Dromund Kaas. They'll sit on DK for 15-30 minutes never once advertising their "LFM" in either the server's LFG Channel or Fleet.

You can trigger this bug if you use /flourish while your weapon is drawn.

The fog in the new graphic is fine, but other things just look bland. The ground is especially bad. You don't see the different rock/mud/sand in the old graphic that makes it looks like a proper messy swamp wasteland, it's just a flat uninteresting dry floor with a few isolated objects in the new graphic.
I really hope they're still working on Hutta, and what we see in PTS is not final, because I'm not completely happy the changes overall.
Also, I don't know if you've seen it yet, but the sun in the skybox looks like some kind of nuclear reactor explosion. It was pretty cool on first sight, but now it feels extremely obnoxious

- You're glad that the duration of the PvP season has been increased, players have more time to get the rewards.
Just how much more time though? They raised the max level from 25 to 30, and the 7,000 total points to 9,000. I'm guessing their achievement of completing the Arena and WZ weekly 12 times each has been raised. They've extended the season duration, but at the same time they raised the effort needed to complete it.

Aside from the aforementioned exploit this opens the door to, what exactly do you deem "A safe distance away"? Because after roughly 14 years, the devs still can't get /stuck command to unstuck you half the time.
This would likely do more harm than good. There are plenty of ops groups for a FP/WB/Ops boss where a single player might DC during the fight, either bad internet or game crashing. Both cases, the player is able to log back in to rejoin the fight if they didn't die. If these players were teleported somewhere "safe" such as Area Start or Medbay, they'd be kicked out of the fight. Most would lose credit too if it was something like a WB. Think of the times you're fighting RX-X8 or Nightmare Pilgrim and you respawn back to Medbay just for the boss to be killed on your way back. It would be like that. If you end up dying while disconnected, the worst possible thing to come from it is you need to pay a little bit of credits to repair your gear.

Yep but I didn't find the perfect one.
For Aayla, there are some tops in the game like the covert energy as mentioned before. There's also a few inquisitor armor pieces, likely obtainable now through the "Fitted" armor sets, that also offer what you're looking for. I'd look here: https://swtorista.com/armor/category.php?search=true&style=revealing
For Mara Jade, I'm thinking imperial agent style armor. I'd look firstly at the Remnant Resurrected Agent. Here are some others (some require black dye )
- Red / Blue / Green / Black Efficiency Scanner Armor
- Enforcer's Eyeguard Armor Set
- Concealed Bodysuit
- RV-03 Speedsuit Armor

What? 340 max mods. 300 max augment.
Yes. 340 is what I really meant. Put 340 mods on it, and add augments if desired. But at the end of the day, you can just put it in the outfitter. It doesn't have to be used as gear.

At the end of Jabiim Escort, you're locked in limbo. You can't travel anywhere. If you try to log out, you get stuck on an extended loading screen. After which, you aren't brought to the character selection screen, you're still logged in and now stranded in the middle of space. This happened 3 times consecutively today.

Tried it and sadly it's just our underwear.
It's gear though, so you can augment it up to 343

The fall damage works game mechanic-wise. It stops you from cheesing through the game by taking shortcuts, and enemies pushing you off of things is punishing.
