Light and Dark

This is probably a general question, but just in case there are smuggler specific answers I put it here. Is it better to focus on light or dark or can you even them out to stay neutral? I thought I read somewhere that you can be neutral and get all the benefits of both light and dark but now can't find the thread or info anywhere.

At this precise moment, there is some advantage to picking either Light or Dark, over staying neutral. It's easier to get Relics while you're levelling if you have a strong bias. End game relics are available to neutrals though, so it's not a big deal. BW intend to add some advantage to neutrality to bring it equal with LS/DS, but ISTR it's not going to be in 1.2

I know this has probably been said but all dark options locked me out of missions on

Alderaan and also locked me out of getting an Achievement : Title Codex.

 

 

I would not have used this option (although results were kind of funny) if I knew I would be locked out of quests.

I focus on dark since I am the Goody Two-Shoes faction, and thus there's less of a premium in the AH, on blue+ dark-restricted goods.

 

Note this philosophy itself fits dark side. :)

There is no benefit to going dark v or light v long term

 

Your relics will be quickly replaced in ops.

 

The only difference between light side and dark side is the mount you get. Praxon Aero is light gray, Praxon Xeno is identical but dark gray.

That's it.

i've lvl'd 2 jedi so far Consular Nearly Dark IV (lvl 40) and a sentinal light I (only lvl 13) so far, and at the darkside light side vendor's i notice that besides the mounts and pets everything is really just stated for jedi's nothing really for troopers or smugglers. There doesn't seem to be any real equipment for dark/light for anyone besides jedi's. So with my new smuggler (sawbones) i've sort of stayed down the middle so far she's still a low lvl so it's not a big deal (do a couple of runs on Esseles and i can fix that either way :p)
