Jybwee Posted January 24, 2012 Share Posted January 24, 2012 (edited) Just hit 40 and only have 227k, i work my slaves.. er.. i mean companions pretty hard on gathering missions. Question is does anyone know for sure if you need to buy Rank 2 Piloting in order to buy Rank 3? I dont really care all too much for the minor boost in speed atm, would rather just wait til rank 3 if it's possible. I wouldn't think it's possible but has anyone tested to be sure?

dagrouch Posted January 24, 2012 Share Posted January 24, 2012 great question. i paid for the speeder rank 2 training and it just didn't seem worth it with the marginal speed gain. was hoping to avoid this the next time go around with my alt...

Mestrahd Posted January 24, 2012 Share Posted January 24, 2012 Well, when you skip any other skill, it doesn't show you the next rank until you purchase the last one. IE there's only one "slot" on the vendor for that skill. I wouldn't imagine speeder piloting is any different. Also, in addition to the speed increase, you get increased knockoff protection.

Just did a google search tho and got - http://www.swtor.com/community/showthread.php?t=82121 Someone says basically what you said.. and it does make total sense. Isn't gunna stop me from waiting til Rank 3 just to find out tho . Unless someone confirms that they actually tested Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MorgonKara Posted January 24, 2012 Share Posted January 24, 2012 I'm level 50 and Rank 2 speeder piloting is the only skill available on my trainer. You have to train 2 to get 3. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes Rank 2 is a prerequisite for rank 3 so it is necessary to pick up. Also while it seems rather subtle (100% vs. 90%) that does not outline the true key difference for a rank 2 speeder against a rank 1, and that is how much more abuse a rank 2 speeder can take before you are dismounted. I begrudgingly picked up the training figuring I might as well spend the money since I would eventually at some point anyway-- but it took all of 5 minutes buzzing across Hoth for me to be thankful I did.
