[Class Story Restart - PLEASE READ]

I'd love this. Always wanted it.

[Replay story arc.]

Anyone else like the idea of replaying the class story in the same manner as replaying KotFE and KotET? I hate making a new character just to replay a class story. Most of them are pretty awesome.

[Customise crew window since 4.0]

Since 4.0 launched. when opening the crew window, you see loads more crew than you used to, most of them you never use, either in the field or for crew skills missions.

 

Wouldn't it e just grand if we could order them so the one's we used most often were at the top?

[Why is this game so unreasonably difficult?]

To be fair, Marauder is perhaps the hardest choice for a first char. There are "a lot of buttons to press", and you have to learn the rage mechanics, all the while the game is expecting you to kill stuff faster than they can kill you. Vette may provide the extra oomph, and Quinn may keep you alive just long enough, but it's always a close call until you really know your class.

 

Other classes are more forgiving: Juggers are more resilient, and everyone else starts combat with a full energy pool and has easier mechanics to empower special attacks.

 

I'd say this.

 

I've levelled every class to 60 and Marauder/ Sentinel is the easiest to die quickly if you don't know the class. Either learn your class or roll a different toon. The most forgiving toon is the Powertech Tank. Loads of AoE to blitz the mobs, survivability, and mako to back you up from the start.

[Asking for help in General chat]

I see messages like this often- "Can someone help me with 'insert solo quest name'". Also LFG 'insert area4 quest name'

 

Now, I would like to help with the solo quest If I can, and I would often like to do the AREA quest, but if it's in a part of the map I haven't been to yet, I don't want to spend 20 minutes getting there on my speeder.

 

Would it not be a good idea when LFG in these cases, to say which part of the map you are in?

[The weird people you meet in Group Finder.]

Just had the weirdest thing ever happen to me in group finder.

 

Kuat Drive Yards, 2 guys unable to zone in, so drop group.

Queue for replacements.

3rd guy can't be bothered waiting, drops group.

3 new toons come in.

Apparently we were going too fast for someone, he drops group.

Get replacement.

At end boss, guy goes AFK, gets kicked.

Replacement arrives, we burn boss.

 

It took 9 players to complete the flashpoint, but never at any stage did anyone die or even come close to it. Aside from constantly finding replacements, it was a smooth run.

[Can't place Hardmode Flashpoint trophies]

I just defeated Kreshan in 55 Hard mode Hammer Station, but the trophy in my stronghold did not unlock. I've got 8 for Revan, 0 for everybody else. Am I missing something?

[Trophies placement.]

I have loads of HM FP bosses unlocked, and can donate all of them to the guild stronghold, but can only place one of them in my personal stronghold, the rest are unplaceable.

 

The unplaceable ones can be gifted to the guild, but not placed in my personal stronghold. Is this a bug?

[Trophies from Operations and Flashpoints for our Houses(Strongholds)?]

I have loads of HM FP bosses unlocked, and can donate all of them to the guild stronghold, but can only place Revan in my personal stronghold, the rest are unplaceable. Seems nuts to me.

[Quick question about trophies]

Seems a bit strange this one, I thought it was a bug also.

 

I have unlocked Revan and placed him on the wall, loads of others are unlocked, but can't seem to place them. It seems like a bug.

[Episode VII and the Chosen One]

He gave up al rights to an opinion when he sold it to Disney. And not before time.

[Can't stick to one character?]

It's called a short attention span. As the levelling slows down, you fell the need to speed it up by creating a lower level toon. Try reading books for a while.

[Healing in flashpoints for dummies]

Like, what are you supposed to do when there are two tanks in the group (is it just an Esseles thing)? If dps runs away and gets agro from everyone like crazy do I have to run after him? Or if he’s in range, is he my priority to heal or it’s still the tank? How much damage do I need to put out so not to be a dead weight? Or I need to concentrate on healing first? I’m still lvl 13 so I guess any good resource-managing rotation is yet to come, but I really want to learn the very basics of healing in FPs now, so I enter mid-levels prepared.

Also, what percentage of health I look for to start healing (as soon as damage is received or I wait for it to drop to 70-80%?) And would it be too much of a diva behavior asking my groupmates to heal between fights?

 

Your priority heal is always the Tank. If the tank dies, it's your fault. If the healer dies, it's the tank's fault. If the DPS dies it's their own fault.

 

It won't hurt to do some at times, but you don't need to do any damage whatsoever, that's the DPS job.

 

I usually make sure the tank is at 90%, the DPS don't drop below 50% and myself at about 75%, that's usually good enough, and yes, tell them to heal up between fights. If they don't, heal the tank and let the DPS die. If the tank doesn't heal up, it's not your fault if he dies.

[New to the game, need a small guild to help with heroics]

Type into General chat. LFG "heroic mission name". It's very easy to get groups for heroics, loads of people want to dot hem.

[Do you punish teeny-tiny undercuts?]

Yes I punish the undercuts. When I undercut someone, its usually by quite a bit (usually 40k or more)

 

I been buying stuff like that and selling it for 39,999 credits more. Thanks!

[DOT tracking. Is there finally a solution?]

To follow youre own procs it's easy by adjusting youre interface so you can increase the size of youre buffs and see youre procs. For the dots on youre target one solution is to better know youre rotation so you know when you have to refresh. The other solution is to use the timers available parsec parsing software there you can manage custom timers.

 

This ^^.

 

It's not ideal, but it's the best workaround so far that I have found.

[Concept question about Jedi philosophy]

Obviously, you tell the baddies to kill the other captive. The reason being that you have no evidence (other than their word) that they even have another captive. He may not even exist.

[Ninja looting now acceptable?]

Doing a FP the other night and someone ninja loots. I believe it was 'for Jaessa'.

 

I intiate vote kick to be met with derisory remarks oike 'who cares', 'lol' etc.

 

No one seemed to mind that this guy was a ninja, is it now an accepted part of the game or have I missed something?

[How do I “spend” Planetary Commendations”?]

In the supplies section, there are vendors for all the planets who sell great gear for commendations. Whatever your level is, go to that planets vendor (if you're 24 to 28, it would be Tatooine, or 28 to 32 is Alderaan, for example) and spend your comms.

[Legacy bank on the cartel market!]

Then I'll just have to keep my hard earned cash and spend it on something else

[Legacy bank on the cartel market!]

Legacy bank on the cartel market!

 

Now I would pay a lot for that!

 

Only an idea.

[My feminine side?]

I am male.

 

I have 8 level 55s, 6 male, 2 female,

 

My male toons have one set of armour and only one, but with my female toons I finds myself thinking, 'Ooh, that armour set looks lovely, I'll keep that in my cargo hold'.

 

In my head.

 

In a girly voice.

 

My 2 female toons now have somewhat extensive wardrobes in their ships. ***? Why do I start thinking like a girl just because my toon is a girl ??? What do the psychologists call this?
