DarthAsphyx Posted February 19, 2012 Share Posted February 19, 2012 There are Role-Playing servers, search for RP-PVP or RP-PVE on server selection screen. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MrBeatZero Posted February 19, 2012 Author Share Posted February 19, 2012 (edited) I know that already but are there any that you or anyone would suggest or simple etiquette for rping in SWTOR Edited February 19, 2012 by MrBeatZero Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Grihm Posted February 19, 2012 Share Posted February 19, 2012 I know that already but are there any that you or anyone would suggest or simple etiquette for rping in SWTOR Basically just go slow in the beginning. Pick a good name and not something that is to be "funny" Pick a class you find interesting and start tweaking it to fit your story idea and you will get a lot of ideas to roleplay on.. If you encounter the "god-mode" people that uses /tell orders to tell you that you are stabbed and wounded etc, just ignore them instead of getting in an argument with them. Part from that...just walk around in crowded areas where people roleplay in the chat-box and read up on how the "social codes" are. Chat-bubbles will come later on and that will boost RP a whole lot. Last but not least....i find it best to act your level so to say. A lvl 50 vs a lvl 5....well you see the point even though it´s not pvp. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ellakkrin Posted February 19, 2012 Share Posted February 19, 2012 I know that already but are there any that you or anyone would suggest or simple etiquette for rping in SWTOR You may find this post on my guilds forums a good place for you to start: http://pravusaxiom.com/swtor/newforum/index.php?/topic/6093-before-you-apply-read-this/ Needless to say, it is worth having an idea of your characters 'identity' before you start to RP.

Darth_Slaine Posted February 19, 2012 Share Posted February 19, 2012 I actually recently made an RP Etiquette guide. You may find it helpful. It is very general. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DuchessOfKvetch Posted February 21, 2012 Share Posted February 21, 2012 Some other articles to read: http://www.forcejunkies.com/2012/01/03/so-you-want-to-be-a-roleplayer http://www.swtor.com/community/showthread.php?t=16177 http://www.swtor.com/community/showthread.php?t=14038 Good general advice here, though it's mostly WoW-specific: http://rpmadesimple.com http://toomanyannas.com/ask-anna/ask-anna-what-is-rp Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tehjai Posted February 21, 2012 Share Posted February 21, 2012 Also, don't be afraid to drum up your own RP. Lots of RP servers have "RP channels" where RPers can discuss things in an out-of-character (OOC) fashion. Ask around, join one of these, and ask where one can most commonly find RP. Take your character to that place, plonk him or her somewhere, and just start emoting things. Or talking to yourself/an NPC. Anything at all to send the message "Hey, I'm willing to RP!" You'd be surprised how many people "take the bait" so to speak. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
