FerkWork Posted February 14, 2015 Share Posted February 14, 2015 (edited) I was reading my codexs (They are fun to read ) yesterday and somehow got to Commandant Iven's (Ivan? Sorry if spelling it wrong) Codex. In his bio if I remember correctly, he was originally from the Slave pens on Ziost. Then at the end of the Shadow of Revan he is captured by the joint forces. Thinking this over what if the Ziost storyline starts with info gleaned from the Commandant's interrogation and digs more into the background of Ivan/Iven and the nature of Ziost? Just speculation. May sound dumb but it made some sense at the time Edited February 14, 2015 by FerkWork Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fidothegran Posted March 5, 2015 Share Posted March 5, 2015 Ziost will be an oricon clone, minus the ops and heroic. You pick the quest up from a droid on the fleet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Darth_Wicked Posted March 6, 2015 Share Posted March 6, 2015 (edited) Man, I hope you're wrong but you're probably not. I expect Ziost to be a bit bigger than Oricon and Yavin, probably more on par with Dromund Kaas or so, but that aside, structure-wise, I find it likely it will be like the former two. No reason to expect anything else really, especially considering if Rishi is any indication, as to what a full-fledged planet is meant to be nowadays. I do think he's wrong on the droid, and we'll get to use the new ship terminal instead. Edited March 6, 2015 by Darth_Wicked Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Darkelefantos Posted March 6, 2015 Share Posted March 6, 2015 I expect Ziost to be a bit bigger than Oricon and Yavin, probably more on par with Dromund Kaas or so Why would it be bigger than Yavin though? You had to pay for Yavin, why'd they give you a bigger one for free? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jrr_hypernova Posted March 6, 2015 Share Posted March 6, 2015 Why would it be bigger than Yavin though?

Kremsau Posted March 6, 2015 Share Posted March 6, 2015 (edited) Lets not forget another As for the story, I expect it'll start with Theron telling us Jonas Balkar set up a contact on Ziost and we'll see the Emperor's current war-camp.

FerkWork Posted March 6, 2015 Author Share Posted March 6, 2015 TFW you don't know if people are responding to other guy or your speculations. Mine were just pure musings with no hard evidence Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Darth_Wicked Posted March 6, 2015 Share Posted March 6, 2015 (edited) Why would it be bigger than Yavin though? You had to pay for Yavin, why'd they give you a bigger one for free? It's not FREE. Not yet anyway. Unless of course, they allow people below LV56 to do that content, which I doubt. ziost will be 60 so you have to pay to acsess it too. or could 50s do oricon without the huttt expansion? RotHC was FREE for subs by the time 2.4 was released. That aside, you are correct. Edited March 6, 2015 by Darth_Wicked Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm kind of hoping they make Ziost one "big" Citadel type map. a la http://i.imgur.com/chJZoqf.jpg I think we have enough open barren ice planets, even if this one will only be about 1/3rd the normal size. Lets not forget another God, that was such a big disappointment. I was like, why would you even bother bringing it back just for this?

Ghisallo Posted March 7, 2015 Share Posted March 7, 2015 What I am hoping for, and from pictures like this..http://starwars.wikia.com/wiki/Ziost?file=Ziost%20egtf.jpg, is while it may have SOME snow and ice that we end up with something in appearance similar to Tibet or Nepal. Since they did go "light" on Rishi and Yavin, I am hoping they are going to go a little "bigger" with Ziost. If they don't it would be hard to justify the "Gateway to the Empire" moniker.

Exosasa Posted March 7, 2015 Share Posted March 7, 2015 I'm hoping for a mix of Ilum and Dromund Kaas -- the icy landscape, hills, valleys, enourmous cliffs to push pubs off of from Ilum and the city/temple stuff from Dromund Kaas. Let us hope! And the sky better be beautiful. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
