Thyrodent Posted December 21, 2011 Share Posted December 21, 2011 I've heard some off reports that some individuals are paying 25,000 for rank 1, while I and many others have spent 40,000. Anyone know what the disparity is about - are the reports I am hearing wrong? was this changed? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tirshatha Posted December 21, 2011 Share Posted December 21, 2011 Gosh I hope not, I'm level 24 with 25000 banked. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Striker Posted December 21, 2011 Share Posted December 21, 2011 I paid 40,000 credits. I had close to 70k when I hit 25 and ended up with 20k? or so after training everything. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bigguyonarock Posted December 21, 2011 Share Posted December 21, 2011 I paid 40k. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AtreusDK Posted December 21, 2011 Share Posted December 21, 2011 40k for speeder skill. 8k for the speeder Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TradewindNQ Posted December 21, 2011 Share Posted December 21, 2011 (edited) 40k, plus another 8k if you buy the speeder. I have my Digital Deluxe freebie one though thankfully. But yeah, 40k. It's easy to make. The quests up until 25 give you more than enough cash to cover it. Edited December 21, 2011 by TradewindNQ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MalachiDraven Posted December 21, 2011 Share Posted December 21, 2011 I paid 40k for the skill and 8k for the bike itself. I had almost 100k at level 25. Slicing is nice Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thyrodent Posted December 21, 2011 Author Share Posted December 21, 2011 so, no one else on these forums has seen the 25,000 price? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
reillan Posted December 21, 2011 Share Posted December 21, 2011 so, no one else on these forums has seen the 25,000 price? the lvl 40 speeders cost 25k. maybe someone got confused Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CeruleanSun Posted December 21, 2011 Share Posted December 21, 2011 wasn't it 25k in a previous beta? perhaps that is where you are seeing this 25k from? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Soobe Posted December 21, 2011 Share Posted December 21, 2011 (edited) wasn't it 25k in a previous beta? perhaps that is where you are seeing this 25k from? It was 25k in beta. Now it's 40k. so, to train piloting and buy the speeder, you need 48k. Add in your combat training and add another roughly 4k for a total of 52k. Unless you have the CE, in which case, you can subtract the 8k for a total of 44k. Which is flippin ridiculous, imo.

I'm lvl 29, and I have over 100k credits, this is after buying my speeder. Yea, slicing. But it will get better once you can sell crafting mats for a decent amount on the GTN Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ZenBones Posted December 21, 2011 Share Posted December 21, 2011 25k sounds more fair. I wonder why it was increased to 40k? Whether it's easy or not, that's a lot of cash compared to other costs on the way up to level 25. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Darth_Dork Posted December 21, 2011 Share Posted December 21, 2011 its just under 50k at lvl 25 to buy both the training and a speeder. Its just under 200k at lvl 40. These numbers are rather easy to attain by the time you get there as l ong as you start saving a few levels early. (as in stop doing crafting) Or you can just do slicing and have a 200k by the time your lvl 25, and probally close to a million by the time your 50.

Vitorian Posted December 21, 2011 Share Posted December 21, 2011 It was 25k in the Beta when I was in it in July Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lukashisuphola Posted December 25, 2011 Share Posted December 25, 2011 Ya they changed it due to all the people saying they had this much $ (most due to either the earlier over powered splicing/ grinding in one way or another / ?etc...) -> which is wrong and funny But best 3 ways to look at it: RP reason: Your faction needs the money desperately so they put a heavy tax on it like real life governments have done is pass. Gameplay wise: To make you feel like you accomplished something and to try and give the feeling you may get or got when you just saved enough money for a brand new car for first time in real life.
