Bearhide Posted February 24, 2016 Share Posted February 24, 2016 What triggers the Holo-Trainers? I've seen them appear inside flashpoints as well, but they don't appear every time a level is gained. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aeoda Posted February 24, 2016 Share Posted February 24, 2016 They are an item people you've grouped with or been around have, not a game function. There are three I know of, the Hutt trainer that was a pre order for Rise of the Hutt Cartel, a Satele Shan for Rep characters only and Darth Malgus for Imp side only that were in Cartel Packs. You can find them on the GTN or from rep vendors in the cartel bazaar area on the Fleets. Once you have one, it's unlockable for all characters in collections, it's an item you have to activate in your inventory. Hope that helps.

Adric_the_Red Posted February 24, 2016 Share Posted February 24, 2016 it's an item you have to activate in your inventory.Like most other usable items, you can drag it onto a spot on your quickslot bars and then just click the spot, instead of open inventory, try to remember and/or search around for the tiem, and right-click on it.

DarkLordSato Posted February 25, 2016 Share Posted February 25, 2016 Yeah at this point they're an item you have to buy off the GTN since they're from an extinct pack. Problem is they can cost anywhere from 1 - 5 million credits and earning that kinda dough can be difficult. And if you're F2P or Preffered, you have a credit cap as well. I managed to get my Malgus and Shan holostatues for about 1.3 million credits each. And now that I've unlocked them through collections (400 cartel coins each) I never have to visit a trainer again. Hands down the best credits I've ever spent. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JediQuaker Posted February 25, 2016 Share Posted February 25, 2016 (edited) You can now buy them from a Rep Vendor in the galactic market, but they require Cartel Market Certificates plus credits, and they don't unlock in collections. (I'd have to check which reputation you need.) (The version you get from the packs still unlocks though.)

Hands down the best credits I've ever spent.If I correctly understand the various notes about the recent redos on how packs work, it's now possible to get pretty much anything that's ever been in any pack from the "new" packs. (Anything, that is, except Cartel Certificates needed to purchase stuff from the various reputation vendors, or the reputation items necessary to get your reputation with whatever faction high enough to be able to buy stuff). So you could, if the RNG gods are smiling on you, get one of those holotrainers from the current packs, even though the packs they originally came from are no longer available in the CM. Credit cap isn't an impossible hurdle for f2p or preferred. That's what the escrow unlock items are for.

skinsrich Posted February 26, 2016 Share Posted February 26, 2016 The one thing I really, reeeeeally want in this game. Subbed to late for the Hutt holostatue, to poor for the ones on the GTN, and my luck sucks bad enough to not get one in any of those packs in the CM. BOO HOO is me....

I've gotten both Satele and Malgus Holostatues that way, and have them unlocked in Collections. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JediQuaker Posted February 26, 2016 Share Posted February 26, 2016 Yes they do. I've gotten both Satele and Malgus Holostatues that way, and have them unlocked in Collections. Well, I've gotten the Malgus statue from a pack, and it's unlocked, but the Satele statue I bought from the rep vendor isn't. Can anyone else confirm this?

Aeoda Posted February 26, 2016 Share Posted February 26, 2016 Well, I've gotten the Malgus statue from a pack, and it's unlocked, but the Satele statue I bought from the rep vendor isn't. Can anyone else confirm this? I can confirm you can unlock those items in collections. Sometimes they don't correctly get added, but they can be. I have the Hutt Trainer, but I picked up some of the regen items and mounts from the rep vendors, and my Battle Camera did not get added on use when my throne was. If you can't unlock it, send in a ticket explaining what it is and that you can't add it, they will send you a bound copy of it to the character that bought the item. Use the copy and it will be added to collections for unlock. My ticket turnaround was I think two days? If they unlocked a regen I would think they'll unlock a trainer.

Erevan_Kindelar Posted February 26, 2016 Share Posted February 26, 2016 Well, I've gotten the Malgus statue from a pack, and it's unlocked, but the Satele statue I bought from the rep vendor isn't. Can anyone else confirm this? These statues come in two different "versions" - the ones from the Rep vendor do not trigger the update of the Collections window, so you cannot unlock them. The others do update the Collections window so they can be unlocked. It seems a pretty weird thing though, and I suspect that it may be a "feature" of the game. Nothing about it in the Dev Tracker that I have seen, but as I have the Dr Oggurobb statue which is cross-faction, it's not one I have personally paid too much attention to.

So they maybe don't want to give you access to "reputation" items on a server where you don't have high enough reputation with whatever "group".
