Drekos Posted February 2, 2012 Share Posted February 2, 2012 So a while ago I proposed to Mako. Then through a series of mail messages she went through status of being engaged to married...by hacking marriage registries. While hacking things is "in character" for Mako, it still felt like a cop out, or corner cutting measure, on Bioware's part. They should know from a story telling standpoint that major plotpoints should happen on screen, not off. There isnt even an "on screen" acknowledgement between the two characters that they were married, which you at least get that much of with Vette. I hope future expansions give a little more content to this relationship than those 3 measly messages I got. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Drekos Posted February 2, 2012 Author Share Posted February 2, 2012 (edited) I had 10000 affection WAY before I proposed, and its pretty much stayed there the whole time. -Drekos Edited February 2, 2012 by Drekos Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Drekos Posted February 2, 2012 Author Share Posted February 2, 2012 My friend gets them with treasure hunting... seems a little unfair that he only has to spend a fraction of what I do for affection points. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kunovega Posted February 2, 2012 Share Posted February 2, 2012 1 noob question buying tier 5 gift need something called gift fragments or something like that how can i obtain some? those are from treasure hunting, however its not the only way to get teir 5 gifts most mission skills (NOT gathering or crafting) will allow you to send companions out for companion gifts (i get mine from underworld trading) also, theres usually some for sale on the marketplace, when i was building affection i just started sending them out for companion gifts and than bought a couple dozen more off the marketplace never once had to care about gift fragments Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rolotomasi Posted February 2, 2012 Share Posted February 2, 2012 all my companions are 10,000 affection, it took less than a day to do at lvl 50 (just spent my time between pvp ques giving them gifts every 30 seconds) why is it i always get item not ready? i don't know how long is cd but sometimes it is more than 12hrs. sometime you can give 2-3 different gift, sometimes only 1.
