Then you would have players back here soon after asking to have it be useable again because they made another mistake, the style got changed slightly by BS, or any number of other reasons.

It’s probably unlikely. I don’t think any of the previous achievement items from seasons have shown up on the vendor. I could be wrong though.

They only did that during the DvL toggle times. Diplomacy is the only one that has always given dark/light side points for tuning missions.

They haven’t even been doing them in numerical order either. Ancient enemies returned III was during week 5. They just seem to be throwing them in the objective schedule in a haphazard manner. I’m hoping they actually have those 4 bosses as an objective before the end of the season.

I doubt that will happen because they don’t want one character able to do everything. It would mean they would loose out on cartel unlocks, time spent in game by players, and complaints that the cost is too high/low or they need even more slots.

Hexid is the only one you can obtain from running the group finder. It is also the only way she has ever been available, as far as I know, since they added her in after the DvL event. Ranos was originally available from having completed the requirements from the DvL event but anyone who missed that can now get her from the GS vendor for GS coins.

But the daily objectives were heavily weighted to being PVP and/or GSF, at least mine were. There were no real weekly objectives so you had to do the dailies each day to get the points needed for the season. Additionally, the objectives were not the same for everyone, so while there were people going in many different directions, friends and guildies were often forced to work on different objectives. The change from the dailies being the focus to the weekly objectives the next season let people coordinate so they could do objectives they didn't get to do when they changed daily.

We are on week 6 of the GS currently so only 66 weekly objectives so far not 80-100. There have also been two GSF objectives not less then two so far. Personally, I think GSF and PVP shouldn’t be GS objectives since there is the PVP seasons also. I still don’t understand why they haven’t added GSF to PvP seasons yet. Objectives during S1 of GS was done terribly. Having the objectives change every day sucked. S2 was an upgrade from S1. It seems obvious to me however that since Uprisings are the season focus this time, they are pushing PVE group objectives. I don’t agree with that but not much I can do except adapt.

Conquest has a multitude of solo objectives. Are you talking about the Galactic Season objectives?

You hit the 'anti-farming' mechanic. If you sit there farming the same mob(s) for long enough, they stop dropping loot or at least any that is better than trash. It's something players have noticed and complained about before but is currently working correctly.

Were you farming for her?

Not totally true. The Opal Vulptilla was originally from the community partners/streamers. They did let us obtain it from the PTS once. Granted, it was still only the one time. It wouldn't be unthinkable for them to make it available like they have others limited times items.

They originally had bonuses to crew skills. I don't remember what they were off the top of my head but they were there. They removed those bonuses when they changed comps in 4.0. I know it did have a bit of a FotM in terms of what was the 'best' crewskill(s) to have for each class at the time.

They changed it when 7.0 came out and we got the combat styles and loadouts. When they announced LotS and us being able to have two combat styles we switched between there was a good amount of 'discussion' on the boards about issues that could/would show up. One of them was that people would demand that others in a random FP switch to a stealth style and kick those who wouldn't or didn't have one. Eventually, when the devs released more info they said that switching would not be allowed. I doubt that ranked pvp abusers were the sole or even main reason for this.

I remember when they did it also. I still don't understand why they removed the cost instead of changing the costs.
