It's still bugged for me for one thing. I started my Warrior on the storyline after the patch was released to 'fix' the saboteur option not showing up, and it is still not showing up for him. Reset the mission twice now and still no option with the SIS. I have several Imp Saboteurs and kinda stuck now. I don't want to have to drag another of them through this story only to find they're also stuck in the same place. I already lost out on my Hunter who I took through the story before I ever knew there was supposed to be a Saboteur option there.

On release of 7.4 I took my Saboteur Hunter through and didn't get any Saboteur option with him - at the time I didn't know I was supposed to until I later read it was a bug and I should have gotten one with the SIS. I held off on taking anymore Imperial Saboteurs through as I didn't want to risk ruining their characters. There was supposed to have been a fix for this in 7.4b and I just tried taking my Warrior through who hadn't started any of 7.4 yet and he still doesn't have the Saboteur option with the SIS. I've tried various dialogue options but it's just now showing up. All of my Imp Saboteurs are now stuck in limbo with me unable to progress the story as I don't want to risk going forward without the Saboteur option and risking breaking their Saboteur status in future content. I've tried resetting the Instance and using different dialogue options but nothing changes, the Saboteur option just won't show up.

I never saw a Saboteur option when interacting with the SIS on my Imp Saboteur either. 😕

What a pain, I can't even upgrade my 328 to 330 as only to 326 is available to buy. I hope it's fixed soon.

Why the Shatter Burst nerf? How much damage was it even doing to reduce the damage by 50%? I enjoyed watching enemies chain explode.

Companions are under performing because you decided to level sync their Presence so now they're terrible outside of level 80 areas. An influence level 50 companion is no better than a level 1 and they likely won't benefit from any Datacrons or Legacy unlocks that also provide Presence. I've watched a companion just stand there or decide to keep shooting rather than heal my half dead character when he had heals ready to use. They also have Accuracy issues and I've seen their attacks miss, companions in tank mode are pretty terrible when it's their big aoe taunt that misses.

I still find myself waiting around, sometimes a long time, for enemies to respawn. Mob sharing is great but if you arrived at a bad time after multiple people just slaughtered everything before you got there - guess what, you're back to waiting like you were previously. This problem would be solved if you made respawns in areas (like the Mutations, or Face Merchants Heroics) much quicker. I've even had a time where I was doing Face Merchants but because I didn't hit a group of mobs first, the item I needed dropped for the player who hit them first but not for me. I had to help others who came along and hit the mobs before me clear everything out before I was finally able to hit a respawned group first myself so the item dropped finally. This isn't fun when you're just waiting, and waiting for respawns. It's even worse for clickies like the one Heroic on Pubside Taris where you have to destroy the thing on the ship. They take forever to respawn. Shared mobs are great if that's the only thing you need. But if you need item drops, clickies, or only a certain amount of mobs spawn, it still sucks because you're still waiting on the slow respawn timers. This isn't fun.

I don't mind Implants currently because it's going to take me a long time before I can grind out the tech fragments I need to get the Legendary ones. I wish I got more Relics however, I've probably opened 40+ boxes (at full 326) and only gotten two. I do get tons of guns I don't need anymore however. It does feel like the boxes are a bit more biased toward what they will give you. I've gotten several hands but only maybe two or three legs.

The cap does feel low. I'm constantly almost capped (and I am capped by about Thursday/Friday) because I can't spend the Medals quick enough. I don't earn Matrixes fast enough to spend the medals I am getting just from Conquest, and I'm not even purposefully grinding Conquest. I have two more characters left to take through the 7.0 content but I've had to sit on them just because it'd be a waste to hit Conquest on them and lose the Medals.

Giving Theron a kill option feels like one of the stupidest and needless options they've done since the stupid Torian vs Vette Virmire style choice. Part of me wonders if they did it on purpose just so they could write him out of future story (and shove Lana down our throats more.) Probably wasn't intended that way but I'm just tired of them catering to Edgelord players and never throwing anyone else a bone. (I have the same issue with what they did to Quinn. Gratuitous death many years after the incident and then didn't give anything to the players who did like him in return.) I really hope Theron gets more content going forward, all the same sex male romances having kill options is getting pretty tiring and gross at this point.

It really does suck that we only get to see Theron in 'passing' lately and that any and all roles he could fill are taken over by Lana. But at least we still get to see him on Pubside. My Imps don't get to see him anymore, almost makes me feel like romancing him on an Imp, even a Saboteur one, was the 'wrong' choice. Having Lana be the only one to know about Saboteur's by default just feels like she'll now be the only one involving herself in that content. We already worked with Tau/Rivix in the past, so I really didn't feel like she was needed in the flashpoint to keep 'an eye' on them both, especially as they don't do anything in the flashpoint to warrant it. I hope going forward we get more content with romance choices that aren't Lana. (And as lacking in content as Theron is currently, it feels even worse for my Koth-mancing Trooper.) I'm hoping we get more little one-on-one scenes for romances, and also for those players who romanced a class story companion. I haven't seen Quinn since Iokath. (I am grateful that it looks like Torian might get some future content despite having a death option.)

The flirt option felt... weird, almost like it came out of nowhere, though I do appreciate having one. I also like that he's one of the few characters in game who didn't kiss the ground Lana walked on. I very much enjoyed him sassing her, especially after how cr*ppy she is toward Tau on the Pubside. Though that said, it likely painted a bullseye on his back because no one is allowed to do anything but worship the ground Lana walks on. (I'm sorry, I'm still salty that she doesn't have a kill option and is in my face constantly compared to all the male romances.) I do wonder what he's up to, he's very suspicious and seems to know a lot. I'm curious as to where things will go with him but I hope he sticks around for a while. Most of my Imp's don't like him but I do have an Inquisitor (my only Loyalist) that has been flirting with him every chance he gets.

This sucks honestly. I really liked putting my companions on Tank mode before 7.0, it let me dps to my hearts content and they could usually keep up. With the Presence nerf, and accuracy issues they're having, not only do I have to put them back on Heals now but I'm taking more damage doing Heroics now in 324 gear than I ever did in 306. I have 'better' gear but I feel weaker in every way. As someone who is using conquest/heroics to gear up, this just puts an extra level of tedium on it all and turns old content I've run countless times into an even bigger slog. I also feel like I've wasted my time/credits/real money on getting companions to level 50 influence because outside of level 80 content, it feels like a giant waste.

I had the same thing. Does it need to be done in Veteran mode? The information doesn't say what difficulty it has to be done in and I did the other 7/8 in the solo-story mode of the new flashpoint.

I had the same issue, a really bad migraine because of the inventory. If the blue boxes weren't glowing so brightly it probably wouldn't be so bad but they end up with this weird phantom visual issue that combined with the brighter glow is just really bad on my eyes.

I don't think so.

It might be because

There's two options near the end of Manaan but they are based on choices made during the story. Spoilers below. There's also a Saboteur option at the beginning of the Elom flashpoint.

Same here on Darth Malgus. Tried multiple times, didn't tab out, just closed the game to try again. Waited 5-10 mins a couple of times. The little loading circle thing is still endlessly spinning.

It certainly feels that way which would be awful. That would be nearly all my Imperial characters now rendered useless. I've had some of them for years, they have pets I can't get on them again, armour, titles, I don't want to have to remake them from scratch because of some stupid bug possibly breaking their storyline through no fault of my own.

That's good to know but the restriction sucks and feels like it punishes older players who have done certain things/earned certain achievements and it's still ridiculous that all this information comes from a Discord instead of being posted on the actual forum where most people go to looking for information. The lack of communication and then this sudden change has made an expansion I was already dreading, much worse.

Okay this sucks, and is still confusing. I made a Knight (Light V) who I paused just before the 'let's go redeem the emperor' mission. I had hoped with the combat styles I'd be able to unlock the Juggernaut style on him so when he 'falls to the Darkside' during that scene, I could keep him as a Jugg for RP reasons. But now this sounds like because he's Light V (even though I've had Light V/Dark V unlocked in Legacy for years) and because he hasn't finished Chapter 3 of his class story, it means he won't get the possibility to swap combat styles? I don't mind if I get locked into keeping Guardian, and having to pick Juggernaut as my second option, but if I can't get access to that second combat style until the end of the class story, then that kinda defeats the purpose of me having made him. That blows. They made it sound like having Light V/Dark V unlocked in your legacy meant that you could immediately change your character upon logging in on 7.0 and now that appears to no longer be the case.

Still having the same problem also. The prior 'fix' did not work for Saboteurs who were already at this stage. (I just took a new Saboteur through and didn't get the cutscene bug, so it appears to only affect older characters before the 'fix' was introduced.) It has been months since this came out and it is preventing me from taking the majority of my Imperial's through the story, especially with 7.0 looming. I am reluctant to go forward on any of these characters out of fear it may break their Saboteur status in a later update. Even an acknowledgement that this wouldn't break these characters would be something better than the current radio silence. Months ago myself and others with this bug were asked to send character/server details so this could be looked into and we've heard nothing back since.

One of the main things I don't like about Lana tagging along (other than she's doing both factions instead of Theron coming with a Pub instead to at least make it slightly fairer. Lana could always occupy that space if your character was a monster who had killed him.) But I question what will happen if we have any Saboteur options around for Lana to witness. I know she's in the know of what we're doing but there's a difference between knowing about it, and actually seeing someone sabotage your original faction. Unless she happens to wander off like all the other characters do whilst we do said Sabotage, she's going to be there. Not sure how comfortable I'd be her witnessing that. Then again, they may not add any Sabotage options at all and there's nothing to worry about. I just wish we'd get more check ins with Theron (and Koth) instead of just Lana, Lana, Lana. That's the issue, in the Devs opinion she's done nothing wrong ever. My Smuggler would have killed her many times over for her various slights since Rishi. Final straw would have been hiding that the SIS wanted to contact him for some time, her keeping information from him like that would have been the final straw. I'm still annoyed about the dumb Virmire decision because it was just so pointless and unnecessary. We already had to stop Vaylin, we didn't need the dumb choice that didn't really work emotionally for anyone other than a Hunter/Warrior.

I'm really hoping for more Quinn like the little one on one's we've been having with other companions lately. I know he's probably low down on the list because Devs seem to dislike him so much but it's not like we've really had any content with him since Iokath. Considering he gave up everything (including the Empire) to join my Warrior on Iokath, it kinda feels like a lot of things are currently unsaid between them.
