DarthJimilingus Posted October 26, 2015 Posted October 26, 2015 Ok, so I finished "chapter 9" of the new expansion and have done a lot of alliance building BUT, I'm gathering that you won't get all of your previous companions back. Is that so? I mean I can understand locking them out for a while to fit with the story but Gone forever? Unless there is something in the remaining chapters where you get everybody back(which obviously none of us are aware of) then this sucks! Great expansion otherwise.

Sith-Viscera Posted October 26, 2015 Posted October 26, 2015 terminal is bugged. should be fixed in tomorrow's patch Bugged How?
brutin Posted October 26, 2015 Posted October 26, 2015 Bugged How? You can't get all the pre-4.0 characters. From tomorrow's patch notes. - The Companion Locator Terminal now correctly unlocks pre-4.0 Companions.
Emersyn Posted October 26, 2015 Posted October 26, 2015 You can't get all the pre-4.0 characters. From tomorrow's patch notes. - The Companion Locator Terminal now correctly unlocks pre-4.0 Companions. Thank you for that info - I missing my minions
Scorpiova Posted October 26, 2015 Posted October 26, 2015 Ummm not all pre-4.0 comps are back. According to dulfly and others in game, its only a afew. Yuun, Pierce, MX, Lokin, Talos, and couple more. None of the ladies are back (Kira/Nadia/Mako/etc) Unless i've been told mis-information, the rest are out until new chapters come.

You are thinking of the companions they are introducing as part of the storyline. The terminal will unlock all of the companions you got leveling through your storyline. They aren't back as far as the story is concerned, but they will be back for you to use for crafting and while running around.
SithKoriandr Posted October 26, 2015 Posted October 26, 2015 I'd guess we get Kaliyo back in Chapter X.
MaryEO Posted October 26, 2015 Posted October 26, 2015 You can't get all the pre-4.0 characters. From tomorrow's patch notes. - The Companion Locator Terminal now correctly unlocks pre-4.0 Companions. Where is this terminal going to be???
Muljo_Stpho Posted October 27, 2015 Posted October 27, 2015 Where is this terminal going to be??? It's already in-game. It just hasn't been working as intended. It's inside the instance for the Alliance base (so it seems like you must reach chapter 9, won't have the old companions while you're still in 1-8) and it's in the small room off to the side.
Sith-Viscera Posted October 27, 2015 Posted October 27, 2015 You can't get all the pre-4.0 characters. From tomorrow's patch notes. - The Companion Locator Terminal now correctly unlocks pre-4.0 Companions. Ahh, Ok TY.......... Take Care and Be Well......
Fazaani Posted October 27, 2015 Posted October 27, 2015 (edited) I want my wife but... you could get comps trough the story... but that story aint there yet... It's like "here is a button to skip the story u cant play..." *** Edited October 27, 2015 by Fazaani
Nvara Posted October 27, 2015 Posted October 27, 2015 Does someone have a web site that confirms which companions each class gets back? I"m waiting for hubby to play the expansion, meanwhile working on influence for crew skills and Im certainly going to rage if I waste time and credits boosting Mako, for example, to high influence, then not get her back ever, or months from now when new storyline comes out. And along those lines... does anyone have new info on how much influence doing quests for your companion gives now? Better to do them early or late in the influence ranks to save on high level gifts like before?
BenWalker Posted October 27, 2015 Posted October 27, 2015 I'm having this same problem. Basically before the new expac i stock up a cargo bay full of gifts to prepare. & now suddenly from what i found out on my BH even after the patch, Blizz & Skadge are with me but under the tab they are listed as unusable! Imagine if i raise them to lvl 50 with the gifts last week & only to find out today i have to wait months or years to get them back....... total rubbish
Nvara Posted October 27, 2015 Posted October 27, 2015 Yep exactly. Unfortunately I used a lot of my stored gifts BEFORE the patch thinking they'd give us a reasonable conversion rate, not 1-to-1 then increase the cap to from 10k to 250k. Plus they made gifts worth more after. So I'm really just trying not to get burned again by accidentally/unknowingly doing stuff on the wrong side of content.
Zorbiax Posted October 27, 2015 Posted October 27, 2015 I just searched my entire alliance base and I can't find any way to summon my companions, even after the patch. Just to confirm, it's the Republic Computer model, with a chair pulled up to it, located to the left of the Commander's Datapad object that's supposed to be working?

Dulfy has an image of the terminal and a map showing its locations http://dulfy.net/2015/10/21/swtor-fallen-empire-companion-influences-guide/#Classic_Companions
Lord_Iurus Posted October 27, 2015 Posted October 27, 2015 If it helps with the gifts, every Alliance mission you complete you basically get a free pack: a piece of cosmetic gear or mount with a companion gift. I'm stockpiling these gifts so I can see if I can get Marr to 50 when my next alt starts Chapter I.
DirtyDiggler Posted October 27, 2015 Posted October 27, 2015 Having a terminal that gives back companions is dumb seeing that the alliance is apart of the open world. How will that work anyways?
Infidelious Posted October 27, 2015 Posted October 27, 2015 Having a terminal that gives back companions is dumb seeing that the alliance is apart of the open world. How will that work anyways? You get to use your old companions but there is a warning telling you that it's not part of the story and you may encounter them lateras part of the story. It was added because a lot of players want to play with their old companions and raise influence with them without waiting months for them to be available.
