Transport, droid gear and Pazaak!


Lanja

Recommended Posts

Here are three quick ideas for consideration and comment:

 

1. Add Fleet to the quick transportation stations so we don't have to arbitrarily go through our ships. I recognize that this means we may not see the inside of our ships for some time while popping back and forth between Fleet and Oricon by transport box, but right now it's just an extra unnecessary step.

 

2. Add one or more vendors with commendations grade gear for droids. As armoring mods are all slot specific and droids don't follow the standard biped slot system, you can't really get decent gear for a droid companion (unless you want to invest in the stuff available at the Czerka vendor, which is expensive and not modifiable). Alternatively armoring mods could be changed to allow one biped and one droid slot (e.g. Chest/Primary Core, Head/Sensor, Legs/Primary Motor). I'd happily gear up that HK of mine with all the Elite comms I've got setting around, but I can't.

 

3. Wouldn't it be nice if (perhaps at Social X) you could buy a mobile Pazaak set, which would allow you to initiate a match with another player (complete with in-game, set-down-at-a-table graphic) while waiting for that next boss pull. Do you only have 13 people for that TC run and is there no tank in sight? Play PAZAAK!!!

1. That's in the game already. It is called Emergency Fleet Pass.

2. Been wanting this for a while now too.

3. Need more minigames like this. KOTOR/KOTOR2's minigames were fun!

Yeah, but that's got a significant cool down even with Legacy perks. It'd be nice to be able to pop back and forth just as easily as between Oricon, CZ, Illum, etc. (Oh and I love KOTOR I and II as well. Great games.)

Until Pazaak actually comes to fruition from BW this is currently how me and my friends play Pazaak... note: we play casino style with a few groups of people hence the 3party/Dealer, otherwise if its between friends you can do it with just the two of you

 

 

The game consists of 3 players. 2 people playing and 1 Dealer for counting and card placement, before each game the Dealer does 4 random rolls for each character, these rolls are for the players 4 custom cards to use, you may ask for a reshuffle once if you don't like the card rolls

 

The custom card rolls are: (/roll 1-10)

1: +2

2: +4

3: +6

4: -2

5: -4

6: -6

7: -/+ 3

8: -/+ 4

9: -/+ 6

10: -/+ 10

 

Object of the Game

The object of the player is to get on or close enough to 21 to win 2/3 games To do this each player will roll "/roll 1-10" since the deck only goes up to 10. After each roll when the total has been stated the player can then use one of their custom cards to alter the total. All 3 players need to be grouped up to play in order top be able to see the rolls, otherwise its going on blind trust.

Legacy Fleet Pass has no cool down when unlocked, and works great for getting around.

 

ALL vendor and dropped end-game items need reworking for companions.

 

I'd personally make the following changes:

 

 

  • Remove slot restrictions on any armoring which doesn't have a set bonus.
  • Remove weapon type restrictions (though keep MH / OH) from hilts and barrels.
  • Change / unify the names of droid armor to align with non-droid armor (e.g. chest = core1, legs = core2).

Pretty much this ^

If you buy all the legacy perks for Fleet Pass, it has no CD what so ever, its instant

 

Hell, when I get out of an op on Ziost Shadow, I use it just to get back to the main fleet station even though I'm technically already at "Fleet". :)
