AFAIK the expensive sets e.g. Blade tyrant were removed from the game, and are now only available from that vendor. Blade Tyrant was Blade Tyrant in game, the main parts dropped from planetary quests/bonus series the rest from various champions. I imagine it's the same for the others, so I can't answer on why the changed the name of that set, but it seem the others kept their names.

The problem as I see it is not so much the gear as the skill - I imagine (Don't know for sure because I've never played one) that healers need to know their skills and rotation. I play a lighning sorc as one of the best dps classes, so why would I know the healing side of things? Perhaps in a guild they are more forgiving, but in a random pug, my experience is that they are not. I've been in pugs where they kicked someone just to bring in a comp healer. That was before 5.0, so I imagine it's worse now.

I took my dps sorc (lvl30ish) into a flashpoint clearly marked dps. The whole group were dps, operative, bh. I was the only force user, and after 2 or 3 groups of mobs, I started getting flak for not healing. I explained that I don't have the healing skills on quickbar, because I never learned to use them, so I got kicked. Never again. If I ever pug again it will be as a pure dps.

I started as f2p, and purchased CC, quite a lot as I recall, then realised it would be cheaper to sub (after 4-5 months), so I did, and my purchase of CC fell off, partly because of the grant, partly because I didn't need to buy them so much because of the other perks of subbing. Now I have played Knights of both and have no desire to replay them, so since I have no need of BiS gear, perhaps I should just revert to preferred?

I could argue that the story is just as apt for a Sith Warrior, though possibly not for a Consular/Inquisitor, and certainly not for the other classes

Case in point, the Sith the BH has to deal with in the Grathan Estate on DK "I am Sith - you can't kill me. Nobody can, well maybe a powerful Jedi....." BH: Zap, zap, Freeze! "Really?"

Got 3 imps, sin, BH and Merc to start Chapter 2. I LOATHE Imp Taris with a passion hotter than a nova. My guys have been stalled off Alderaan for a while now, so I'm going to have to bite the bullet, esp for the sin, because I've never levelled one before. But if I get it over with, I can have Christmas on Corellia. Only consolation on Taris is the dark side option at the end, as payback for the whole bloody mess.

I thought it was reach light V, then all light points offset any dark points till none are left. I don't recall it being instant, though it's a w2hile since I paid any attention to it, esp now that they have screwed it up completely - the light side missions give dark side points and the dark side missions give light side points. It needs a careful mouseover before assigning any mission.

You do need to be level 60 to start the Nar Shaddaa and all subsequent bonus series. Only ®Taris and (E)Balmorra are available immediately after finishing the planetary series.

Agreed. How about we buff PVE in general to make it comparable to PVP?

You really believe they will round up? They usually round down.

2 * 1.25 = 2.5, which rounds to 2, so I think it doesn't work.

Or maybe they just didn't imagine that anybody would want to play anything other than the way they want us to play - they know best after all....

you're very welcome. One of the truly useful options (if you're a smuggler)

Preferences, user interface enable/disable coverbar

The devs just flat out told us that's not how they want us to play.

if you need medical supplies, that's the only way to get them short of buying them on GTN

True enough, so why since KotFE have they been emphasising solo play? They're being inconsistent at best, though irrational might be applicable too...

And what I'm getting from the stream is that they don't want you to play solo, and seem to be actively discouraging it, though we will seeon Tuesday when they adjust/balance the PVE CXP

And 2CXP x 1.25 = 2.5, which rounds to 2CXP, so the booster still doesn't work........

@CaptRogue lol Tea????? Tea????? Whisky is the beverage of choice (or gin for the Effete) The sun is after all over the yardarm

Brit here. {No idea what colonial times are. When does this take place in civilised time?}

Since ourdear F2P and preferred are locked out of it anyway, I doubt they would care.

Which is no solution at all for PVE. Consider 1 Heroic 2 from DK - Personal challenge. Pre-nerf I would get 100 CXP from this, (8 golds + 20 for completion) or maybe 127, depending on the state of the DvL contest. Nowhere near the amount for a warzone. Post-nerf, I get 20 CXP for completion (or maybe 23, given favourable DvL. Even with a CXP boost @ 200 CC, I would get 25 or 28 CXP. It's just not worth either the time or the CC. PVP and GSF are the only ways to get CPX in reasonable amounts.

Oh the rage that generated - Twitter nearly went on fire.
