Kairaith Posted July 17, 2015 Share Posted July 17, 2015 (edited) Just curious, we have the 12x class mission exp boost until Fall, when that time comes and the experience boost is gone, are we ever gonna see another one? Or will we go back to the old way doing lots of side missions to level up? Also will the changes such as 6 minute quick travel stay or go when the boost fades?

Bobs_YourUncle Posted July 17, 2015 Share Posted July 17, 2015 from what I recall reading in the releases about the streamlining of the class story part of the game, they seem to indicate it will be a lot less tedious when the expansion goes live.

Sardorim Posted July 17, 2015 Share Posted July 17, 2015 I'll miss it but I do wish it went up to 60 so I could power there with all my classes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DOHboy Posted July 17, 2015 Share Posted July 17, 2015 I'll miss it but I do wish it went up to 60 so I could power there with all my classes. once you hit 55, rishi and yavin are open and are already balanced to get you from there to 60. add in an already existing boost and you'll be 60 before rishi is over especially if you do the forged alliance solo missions.

fortsmithman Posted July 25, 2015 Share Posted July 25, 2015 I like the 12X bonus. Even though I get the bonus I still am doing any and all side missions that I get. Even though I get 7 point per side mission I will still do them because of the basic comms you get for doing the mission. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Icestar Posted July 25, 2015 Share Posted July 25, 2015 I think we have to wait a while until they do the X12 experience again. In the expansion we have the option to create a level 60 character and possible more from the cartel market. Enjoy this opportunity to level new characters Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PavSalco Posted July 25, 2015 Share Posted July 25, 2015 Also will the changes such as 6 minute quick travel stay or go when the boost fades? QT and taxi changes are unrelated to Epic Story Boost. They were introduced to streamline leveling up in general. They are staying in the game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DawnAskham Posted July 25, 2015 Share Posted July 25, 2015 (edited) From the annoucement of KotFE: "With the launch of Knights of the Fallen Empire, all of the original eight Class stories will be enhanced, allowing for a faster and more engaging playthrough for new and veteran players." There have also been comments from the developers stating the intent is to let players experience the story without requiring lots of travel, grinding, or side missions - though no details on exactly what may change. Right now 12X is simply a marketing gimmick to get people to subscribe while the game sees limited new content released. IMO post KotFE won't require a gimmick 12X XP event to level through just the story, it will simply be the way the game works after they 'enhance' the original story content.

KyrMaddox Posted July 25, 2015 Share Posted July 25, 2015 So they got rid of the x12 bonus or is it still in game? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fidothegran Posted July 25, 2015 Share Posted July 25, 2015 In KotFE, each class mission will give enough XP to level you up to the level required for the next mission. If you are already high enough, it will give normal XP. The class stories are also going to be edgy and more adult. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As in "When the expansion launches the 1-50 class missions will get enhanced", don't read too much into it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wondered what he meant by it, and then I noticed it is from fido. So yeah, not reading into it is probably for the best...

aSpitefullRetort Posted July 27, 2015 Share Posted July 27, 2015 I don't mind it for catching those last few toons up, however it is a double edged sword...thus far in the last fortnight, I've seen a level 23 warrior, who didn't know how to select an advanced class, let alone find the shuttle to leave korriban, and a mid level powertech.....bombed up with cunning. Like I said double edged sword, we've an influx of new people maybe due to 12x xp, but some are not actually learning to play their class, which will in the future be interesting when they eventually stumble into end game activitis, sometimes I watch them out of morbid curiosity..

Lecaja Posted July 27, 2015 Share Posted July 27, 2015 (edited) I have 7 characters crafting full time to keep me geared but the 12x level boost means this is my dream game as I only experience the story content I want to experience. For me this is the main story and since it's been a couple years the planet wide sidequests. I'm skipping flashpoints because I repeated them so much a couple years ago to level I still remember it, Galatic Starfighter because it's not my thing and PVP warzones which while very fun my average skills means that better players had to ignore me or worse carry me which lessoned their experience I'm sure. In short this is Kotor 3-9 which is a paraphrase of a dev quote but one that always stuck with me. Edited July 27, 2015 by Lecaja Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't get what Bioware thinking if they want to attract new players. Even if someone knows how to play this is a very gear based game and not having it is very painful. Leapfrogging levels is nice but only if you can afford to skip content and not be adversily impacted. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Indeed, I think it was away to get our existing toons to 60 for the new content, but inadvertently attracted more people due to fast progression, which is good and bad. Firstly for an influx of new blood, but will bite later when people use GF and find people undergeared, or overgeared with wrong stats for class roles. Time will tell I guess, but i'm enjoying the 12x XP Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Time will tell I guess, but i'm enjoying the 12x XP The part about each class having a primary stat should be more clearly explained in-game. I made every mistake you could on my first playthrough but the first was gearing up Kira Carsen in all might adaptable armor mods or better yet not realizing the adaptable armor needed mods and wondering why I was dying with great ease. Out of game how collections work should be explained in-game I bought the same adaptable armor twice rather than go through collections to spend for an account unlock which is much cheaper.
