DarthWoad Posted June 23, 2016 Share Posted June 23, 2016 (edited) I'm a legendary player with two of each class, and are you really wanting me to level another 8 characters just for the legendary rewards? Sure ill do it just for the rewards, but it's gonna be a very long and very boring grind as someone who has played the game for over 4 years. I can see that this is just a carrot on a stick to keep people subscribed. I'm most likely going to spacebar through every conversation. I can see for some people that it's an instant put off, and won't bother doing it again. And before you say it, you're right, I don't like it, but I'm still going to do it. Sorry. I haven't seen anything said about the end date for the event but I assume it will throw in a couple of other events? Is there anyone who feels a hint of disappointment about this as well?

DenariusJay Posted June 23, 2016 Share Posted June 23, 2016 http://www.swtor.com/community/showthread.php?t=886292 Quite abit of information in that thread from the Devs... yes, you will need to relevel each class 8 times. Notice though each class, meaning, you don't technically need 8 character slots to hit that achievement, you can run power level 1 char to 50, delete it, power another class to 50, delete it, etc. It is doable with 1 character slot.

Ah thanks for the info. Now I see they basically want me to repeat and do some of my achievements again for some amour sets and other fluff :/ Then they will count the number of ds/ls points and click "activate companion". Is that essentially it? Edited June 23, 2016 by DarthWoad Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Theeko Posted June 23, 2016 Share Posted June 23, 2016 (edited) Yeah that is quite stupid tbh if you already had them to begin with why bother doing it again? Edited June 23, 2016 by Theeko Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
leoprietobombero Posted June 23, 2016 Share Posted June 23, 2016 I think I'm the only one with this opinion ... but .. I would do the 8 stories again ... are all fun (except for the smuggler, kinda boring). What I can't find is if you have a limit time to do it ... anyone knows?

Rosterius Posted June 23, 2016 Share Posted June 23, 2016 This is absolutely retarded! I do not see why I need to create 8 new characters! I already got them all! Bioware virtually says "Fu*k you veteran players, all your accomplishments was useless" What will be next? lvl 65 with ALL race and ALL class?

Jeweledleah Posted June 23, 2016 Share Posted June 23, 2016 ok, so... just to verify... none of the rewards are retroactive? like... if I say wanted that mount from legendary reward tier.. I would have to not only level AND gear a whole new character - but redo all the flashpoints etc on them? do they even have a way to track it? since once you do it the first time, achievement is legacywide. holy mother of "well - you wanted new content? how about you grind through all the old content you already did - have fuuun!"

You know, create a toon, enjoy the story, doing the fp/ops when we can / want ... But only 3 / 4 months to do ALL that stuff .... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TUXs Posted June 23, 2016 Share Posted June 23, 2016 Yes! Weeks of guaranteed FUN while you tackle all the great new activities to do in this BIG NEW "event"...no play-through will ever be the same twice either...as long as you do all 8 classes again (and only those 8).

leoprietobombero Posted June 23, 2016 Share Posted June 23, 2016 So, just for clarify ... We have 3 months (until November) for: • Reach Level 50 with all 8 classes • Earn 1M Credits on a Character • Reach Dark 5 Alignment • Reach Light 5 Alignment • Kill 5 Specific World Bosses • Kill 5 Specific Operations Bosses • Complete all Hard Mode Flashpoints • Complete the Eternal Championship ….and more! ... Oh boy! What's that 'more' will be? Oh yeah, this stuff http://www.swtor.com/blog/legendary-level-guide I really hope this will be a permanent event ... if not, it's impossible to do it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rklontz Posted June 23, 2016 Share Posted June 23, 2016 If they are expecting a person to re level all 8 classes in a couple of months there is no way the event can be all that time consuming or engaging Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lunafox Posted June 23, 2016 Share Posted June 23, 2016 This is an all new low even for you Bioware. Like many others, I've already achieved legendary...I've done most classes atleast 3 to 4 times, some even more than that. And now I'm expected to do it all again, just for an event. And before October. Yah...that's not going to happen. I sincerely hope you people will rethink this, because it's almost like punishing your long time players. Like some, I've been here since before launch. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But only 3 / 4 months to do ALL that stuff .... yeah noticed that whole couple of months thing after posting here. aaah... the event that has ZERO new content and just encourages the grind of old content that people are already growing very tired of. I didn't think they could do worse that Casino event. I was wrong. edited. it IS possible to do everything they want you to do in such short a time. if you space bar through everything, have every xp boost known to man active while doing so (second to 8th character would presumably have that full set of legacy gear that gives 50% more xp) , full sets of mods to swap in and out, nice stash of credits to do that with and have preset group to run all of those flashpoints/ops for specific bosses with. the question is... is the mount, title and another gear set even worth even fraction of the effort above? and moreover who thought that this in any way shape or form would actualy be enjoyable????

Vhaegrant Posted June 23, 2016 Share Posted June 23, 2016 Eternal level for the new companion looks doable in a reasonable amount of time. One Republic class to 65 and then an Imp class to 65 and through Shadow of Revan and Knights of the Fallen Empire, a little bit of PvP and the flashpoints (at least half of which can be solod). Legendary is where the fun ends and the grind begins and maybe it should be that way. A lot of the achievements seem to be easy to get, especially if you're in a semi-decent guild that focuses on clearing event content. It's only the levelling of redundant classes and maxing out skills that puts any sort of 'effort' into its accomplishment. I mean the title sounds naff and the mount looks naff. You're only going to want them for boasting rights and if lots of people get it you lose even that small boasting privilege! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KyaniteD Posted June 23, 2016 Share Posted June 23, 2016 I wonder what they think where the money for subs comes from. Personally, I have to work for it, which kind of accounts for a large chunk of my time not spent with the other basics of life. I have almost all those listed achievements, earned over course of 4 years, lol. But who knows, maybe it's a recurring event? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
