Cedia Posted November 27, 2015 Share Posted November 27, 2015 Timely thread. I just got my favorite character, my Bounty Hunter, past Ziost. Now she sits there because the thought of losing Torian is hurting me. When I complained about how sad I was about losing companions to my husband, he laughed and said, "that's the point". So instead of putting my big girl pants on I've started yet another Jedi Knight because I really don't like any of those companions and Doc makes me want to vomit. Maybe I'll finally start KotFE with her. (But, stupidly enough, I am still missing Torian by not playing my lovely blue-haired ****** missile-shooting miss.)

Vankris Posted November 27, 2015 Share Posted November 27, 2015 the first (and only) character i ran through kotfe so far is my sniper. i didn't know i would be loosing my companion, or more exactly, i was under the impression it would only during the story chapter and i would get them back after. Didn't know it was permanent. I do miss the snarky comment of kaliyo. now, i have another character 65, full 216 already, my vanguard, but i didn't want to lose my crew, so i didn't run it through kofte yet. I do want to run a force sensitive character trough the story though, the sniper didn't make any sense. How would a simple sniper even measure in a duel against arcann, the immortal emperor. how can i stop a lightsaber with sniper rifle. Plus everyone act like my sniper is super important, even the dead emperor thinks she is special, she is just a well trained agent gone rogue. Story made no sense with a sniper, so i'm thinking running my juggernaut, surely the emperor wrath make more sense. But i'd hate to lose vette, and her witty comment here and there. or even jaessa.

CrutchCricket Posted November 27, 2015 Share Posted November 27, 2015 That's what insta-60s are for. Made a new character, literally treated her as such, no problems. Everyone else is staying where they are, nice and safe. I do have some clones I might put through. But my mains are preserved. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But my mains are preserved. if it works for you, that's fine, but i ususally like to drag my character (no clones) through the story and the expansions. Some characters in WoW have been created in 2004 and have been adventuring with for more than 10 years, have known many expansion and defeated countless enemy. i treat swtor character the same usually.

Shipwright Posted November 27, 2015 Share Posted November 27, 2015 I made a 60 to play KotFE. Not planning to take my existing characters through it. Especially my BH; I get a kick out of Gault and Blizz, and Torian is cool since he is Mandalorian. Yeah, just not thrilled with the idea of loosing them, so I made a character just for playing through KotFE. For me, this was the better way to do it.

Shirvington Posted November 27, 2015 Share Posted November 27, 2015 (edited) I don't understand. You can get your classic companions back via the terminal on Odessen. Edited November 27, 2015 by Shirvington Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bugattiboy Posted November 27, 2015 Share Posted November 27, 2015 (edited) I only ever used treek pre 4.0 Ditto. I found that her healing and tanking abilities were better than whatever companion you were given through the story.

Shirvington Posted November 27, 2015 Share Posted November 27, 2015 Did you notice you can't build influence with them? No. I haven't used the terminal to reacquire any of them yet. What happens when you give them gifts? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ryoutou Posted November 27, 2015 Share Posted November 27, 2015 No. I haven't used the terminal to reacquire any of them yet. What happens when you give them gifts? It raises their influence level. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nommaz Posted November 27, 2015 Share Posted November 27, 2015 No. I haven't used the terminal to reacquire any of them yet. What happens when you give them gifts? Nothing they say thank you or whatever but there is no gain, at least on the one I tried (Mako) after a couple gifts I realised, and didn't want to waste anymore.

Deyjarl Posted November 27, 2015 Share Posted November 27, 2015 Personally, I will never break up Havoc Squad. Ever. You? Except there is a device that lets you get them all back, just not for the story leading up to it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Was working with Kira the other day. Went from 10-11 on her just using courting items. You sure you didn't "cheat" on Mako at some time? Apparently if you have companions will know and act accordingly when they appear in the future story lines. Not sure if they influence gain is related to that.

Nommaz Posted November 27, 2015 Share Posted November 27, 2015 You giving her the right type? yup High gain gifts, no gain I have only tried mako though, and I noticed that even though I was maxed on pre 4, she is only 9, and max nine cant remember the number but basically one gift from ten, nothing happens, i'll try another one tonight when i get home, and ticket if its just me lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shayddow Posted November 27, 2015 Share Posted November 27, 2015 The courting gifts don't work, but other gifts do. I've had no problem raising influence with my "old" companions regained thru terminal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lednew Posted November 27, 2015 Share Posted November 27, 2015 Sure you can, if you don't care about the storyline. I was never tempted to use this feature. I am very interested in how they plan to bring each companion back story-wise. Mako: We thought you were dead. Torian and I are married now. You: <shoots Torian in the face> We good? Mako: Uhh, yep. All good. Glad to have you back, big guy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
