That's odd as it switches to GBP when I switch to French or German.

Funny you mention that, I was recently in a lowbie tfp with 3 other dps (with my ~40 gunslinger), the first one (a lvl 65) dropped after a trash pull, the second one dropped after one or two attempts at the desert boss, but the other low lvl dps (who was inexperienced with MMOs) & I pulled our low-ish rank heal comps out & managed to work through it after a few attempts (subsequent bosses I gave him full explainations of the tactics & we got through those first time). We did run out of green barrels but the companions + heal stations were able to get us through.

Didn't receive the first mail, haven't received the second mail (yes, I'm down for mails from SWTOR in my preferences), I don't delete mails from SWTOR, I do get mails regarding tickets I've raised, the usual monthly cartel coins & so on. If CS can't do anything, who can (Batman? Superted? Danger Mouse?)?

When the hemo blast buff is up, you're doing 2x dirty blast then speed shot, is that so it lines up better with the cooldown of wounding shots? Compared to 3x dirty blast (which would get additional damage from the hemo blast buff)?

I've not received anything either.

Fine, so my back-of-a-***-packet calculation was probably off on the mitigation element (and to be fair, I have no idea how much a boss would mitigate weapon damage compared to internal).

I'm trying to get into Dirty Fighting (having been SS previously) & I'm confused, why would quickdraw be higher damage than dirty blast (outside of hem shot)? Wouldn't the target's armour/damage reduction/whatever reduce the weapon damage such that dirty shot's internal damage makes it do more damage?

A nice little QoL change would be to have the list of companions in the crafting window sorted by influence so that the top one is the most effective crafter. Since 4.0 removed the specific companion bonuses to specific crew skills there's less reason to have the companions in a specific order, so I would very much appreciate it if we could have the companions sorted by influence, possibly as an option in the same way the crafting windows allow you to sort by rating/level/etc.

While I thought the same as ShepardSpock, a quick google showed me that apparently you get some recycled stuff if you buy Battlefront (though apparently only for the PC). Edit: And don't forget OP, plenty of times games released on consoles get free stuff that the PC version doesn't.

Still needs 4 people to click on stuff.

Yes, you need to complete the full Macrobinocular quest line (handing it back in to the relevant person on your capital planet) to be able to see/scan the droid. Once I did that I saw the droid on the first Star Fortress I did after completing the questline (the droid itself can be seen as a "stealthed" object without the binoculars & you then scan it).

I wish they would just split pve & pvp skills from each other (like Guild Wars did, so skill A does X damage in PvE & Y damage in PvP) so that they could balance both of them appropriately rather than **** one over for the other.

It required 4 people when it was released & there was much rejoicing that a H4 actually required 4 people to complete. Skip forward a few years to when people aren't particularly interested in doing that content & as the above posters say, you may well be hard pressed to get enough warm bodies to do it.

Datamining wouldn't exist if the data wasn't in the client in the first place (or the PTS version, or wherever they're getting it from)...

True, but this is Star Wars we're talking about, not real world physics so you need to use some suspension of disbelief (ie, that they can have a railgun that accelerates a round up to some-form-of-very-fast speed in a reasonable barrel length & energy usage). And the engagement range in the films appears to be of the order of units/tens/hundreds of kilometers for capital ships & probably hundreds of meters to a kilometer or two for fighters 'cause it makes for better cinema than the occasional flash of a cap ship exploding on a black background. Probably the same one that fired up it's fortress shield without realising that upgraded protons ignore shields as well as armour & got one-shot...

In the US perhaps, I've not seen many in the UK (though I don't really look for them TBH).

Given that GSF is space not air, why couldn't you have a long range sniper-type role? What makes you think that short-ranged fighters would be practical in space combat, compared to nuking the **** out of each other from the other side of the system/etc?

It's always been AoE (if you fail to do the mechanic properly). In HM if you don't do it properly & the person being deleted is on top of some other people, they all get killed. Though IIRC no-one should die (in HM) if the targeted person gets shielded in time (lag notwithstanding).

I like the idea (quite a bit), but it does kinda sound like a Star Wars flavoured Eve (which is not necessarily a bad thing).

And they format your C: drive as well don't they?

This evening at 8pm BST.

One thing BW could do is to make the security chests only lootable if the mobs that usually spawn with them have beenkkilled. Though this would have some effect on stealthers & people who run in to loot the chest while ignoring the mobs.

While you are undoubtedly correct, how much aim would you be losing out on by switching from a 198 reflex barrel to a 204 commando compared to the increase in tech power/weapon damage? Wouldn't they still come out on top with the 204 barrel?

If he's in a mix of 192/198 presumably he is lvl 60?

That wouldn't stop them from selling a black/black crystal on the CM.
