I think it is more of how the jedi and sith choose to use their powers. I mean, they might be equal in power, but the sith show their power more often... usually by destroying planets, killing hundreds of people... etc. While the jedi choose to only use their power if it is really needed I guess? Unless they are Anakin(spelling?).... Then of course there are the grays(can't tell if it is an A or E that is used...), who have the perfect balance, kind of

My legacy isn't high enough for imperial treek yet But, I have been working on gearing Xalek, and it is actually a lot better using him I think at the moment, then using my healer. I was just doing the isotype-5 droid thing last night, and almost had it killed until Xalek died, then I got murdered by the droid when I was activating the turrets for the last time. So I am now going to continue to gear him since I think if he is able to tank good enough then I will have no problem with dailies and stuff on oricon.

That would make sense, plus thinking about it, I did use Xalek while fighting the chapter 3 boss, and he survived a lot longer than the healer... guess I should work on gearing him then(plus the bone face is awesome).

Hmm... yeah, I have been saving for some of the 66 gear things on the GTN since Oricon has really only given me heavy armor and other stuff I can't use. Quick question though, what companion should I be using? I have been using the healer guy since Hoth because he was geared for Voss and has max affection.

So, reached level 55 on Saturday night and was really excited to have gotten a 55 character on my first month here. But. now I am being torn apart by pretty much every mob on Oricon, and players can easily 2 shot me in PVP. I have no idea if it is my build(deception), or that I am still getting geared up? Also, my damage has just sucked for the last 20 or so levels. Oh, also I seemed to have been doing better damage while spec'd as darkness honestly, or at least I was able to not worry about dying constantly.

Oh, thanks. This is the first game I have been on that the group finding system is actually used.

No, the quest says only 15xp, but the purple text after you kill it is much higher than that(on my lvl50 I was getting 15k from bonuses). Honestly though, I don't mind too much if someone messes up and skips the bonus. I tell them nicely that they could have gotten more exp from the bonus, so that in the future they know why their team is yelling at them Though, I did run into a girl with my guildies who was trying to free the prisoners while we were killing the elite O_O still think she was a troll, or just completely clueless on how the game works(she was messing up everything we were doing, but got kicked before the boss). Back to topic, I have only been here for a month, and my first few KDY runs I was skipping every bonus because I had no idea they were there, it wasn't until this weekend that I found out about them But now I try to make sure everyone I am running KDY with knows that we are going to kill the elite.

Okay, I have now been on the game for close to a month(just got my main to 55 this weekend and my alt to 27), and encountered a lot of words I didn't see in other games, but they were easier to figure out. Yet, I can't figure out what a pug is, I am guessing something related to pvp? Is it people who drop out of the match when they start to lose?

Normal. About crafting, it is going to cost a lot to level it and you won't see much money returning for a while. I was also spending tons on repairs between lvl30-50, and now probably much more that I hit 55. Also, just adding this, I would recommend only training skills you are actually using or going to use, because at lvl50ish they cost around 10-50k each I think(not exact prices because I haven't trained my skills since hitting lvl50).

Hoped I would never be posting here, hate saying it was the group who sucked. Well, out of tons of KDY runs yesterday(lvl42-50), I only ran into 2 bad runs. The first one was with me and a guildie, and then two random peoples who were a sorc and merc. Not very much to say about it except that the merc was really acting like KDY was all solo, while the rest of the group was clearing out the bottom area of one of the prisoner cell blocks, the merc decided to attack the elite defender alone, so we decided to go help him I guess. The rest of the run was pretty much the merc attacking random mobs without any help. The next bad run that was really late last night, started with the sorc healer complaining about there being a merc healer in the group, and there being no tank. After assuring her that there was no need for a tank, and that it was okay to have 2 healers, we finally got moving. But, at the first group of mobs, they asked who was tanking again, no one answered so I assumed they were asking me to tank(dps assassin by the way). After that the run was going fast enough for me to decide to tell my guildies I would be ready for another run right after this one(at that point I was guessing ther was only 15min left, which I was right, we did clear the second level in about that amount of time). But, the problems started again at the droid boss. I assumed that because at least the merc and sniper sounded like they had done KDY before, that they would know to kill the adds. I was run and the whole group was focusing on the boss, it took me telling them to kill the adds, and me running around killing the adds for around 10-20min for the sniper and sorc to start helping with the adds, but the merc was still just shooting at the boss. I gave up and just attacked the boss because it was already taking forever and my guildies were waiting for me. After the boss died I did thank them for the group, since it was kind of fun Have a feeling I am going to run into a lot more groups like these today O_O

I just assumed you level so fast because it is like doing 2-4 quests in a small area. All I know really is that with just the legacy perks, and a major exp boost, I am currently getting about 80-90% of a level each run(I am missing one legacy perk). Can't wait until double exp hits

So, my assassin has Slicing, Armstech, and Underworld Trading, and my BH currently only has Scavenging. I am having trouble deciding what the other 2 skills I should get on my BH, and if Armstech is even worth it? I plan on crafting in the future, but I have no idea what crafting skills are even good, since this is only my first 21 days on the game. I thought Armstech was worth it, but I completely forgot that I would be using orange gear, so now it seems useless to me, but I am happy with the other skills because I am able to make some credits off of them.

The last episode was my favorite of the whole series I think, though I guess it isn't the last anymore?

I want to get my assassin to at least lvl45 this weekend, but am hoping for something more like lvl47-50. Then I also plan on leveling my new mercenary with my friend who is leveling either an op or jugg(I forgot which class he decided to play). That all depends if my game decides to work though... But, I am actually excited for the weekend mostly because it gives me a reason to actually level my assassin(I have been mostly just helping my friend lately with heroics and stuff), and I want to get my mercenary to lvl20ish as fast as possible(could actually do it in a few hours I think, since it only took like a day to get my assassin to that level).

Hmm, well... I would probably be an operative honestly If I happened to be force sensitive, I would honestly be kind of afraid to let jedi or sith know, since it seems like both sides want to use the power of the force to control people... though if I couldn't hide it I would go with sith but be more of a gray I guess... Or I would just be dead.

Yes, if they added playable droids I would totally pay to play as one though I am guessing it would be unavailable to force users...

What?

Yeah, I think KDY is the best option for leveling fast due to all the running around on planets. That is what I am going to do on my lvl42 this weekend. But for my new BH I am going to do every quest I can find, and stay in que for warzones constantly, and do KDY as much as I can still. At least on this character I will have my friend to talk to so I don't go crazy from boredom. Also for lvl55 in 9 hours, it seems possible to me. If you had a high level friend and a ton of exp stuff (I am planning on getting my 42 to around 50 this weekend).

Oh, still it was annoying to use during leveling... But, I made a merc, and now I just have to figure out how the heat system works. Think I figured it out last night.

I made an agent on Saturday night, but for whatever reason I was just so annoyed with the cover system. So I think I shall go with mercenary for now, because I don't feel like going through the SI story again. So, probably will go with that to at least learn how healing works in this game, then if I really need a different class I could always make one I guess

So, I currently have a dps assassin at lvl41, but I have gotten bored of playing dps, and want to try healing on this game. From what I read, it looks like Op's or Sorc's are the best healers, but I was more interested in mercs? Thanks.
