thank you based bioware, finally a legacy title i deserve
Been a while since I've been keeping up to date on this game, but would really love to get back into it. Aside from Galactic Starfighter, are there any other expansions on the way? Like ROTHC-style? Or perhaps larger?
I mean like a story-based, traditional gameplay expansion.

they've kept all that under wraps thus far
I like those new pistols in market, especially that 30017 revolver lookalike. But of course, without having CC it's impossible to get them, since people are greedy cunts. One fucker asked 3 millions. Yeah, 3 million creds for 400CC pistol.
Speaking about greedy cunts, people sell those parcels for enormous prices and there's lots of idiots who buy them. Really? Is it so hard to just keep throwing snowballs? I've made 10 parcels in 1,5 hours, and the event is up until next year so you'll have plenty of time to get 100.

I'd love to see them do another expansion that would focus on each class and a common pool of quests, like the vanilla game. I really didn't care much for the fact that Makeb lacked class quests entirely.
How hard is it to get a full set of the Gree armor? i think my sniper would look baller with it.

its as easy as getting the rep for friend or whatever it is and buying it with credits
Level 32, is it still possible to level to 50 using F2P preferred status? Not possible, but more feasible.
It can be done. you'd need to cap out on dungeon/pvp/space stuff to make up for the exp deficit, not to mention doing all the group quests.
Starfighter is now out for preferred players
As weird as it sounds, I think Concealment might be my favorite melee spec.

How? I'm pressing H and it's still telling me to sub

To bad it's easy to shit all over Concealment at 55. It's great for leveling up and early warzones though.
What level is your merc?

The new pistol has not been out very long. Give it time and it will cost next to nothing eventually. When Kick the Huttball came out, people were trying to sell it for 2-3 million. After about two weeks you could find them for about 200k.

You can have the armor right after the first week. The first time I did the Gree event, I had enough rep items piled up that I was 3k rep short of Legend after the event ended. I had to wait two weeks to use all the rep items, but I still had them. The first three days of the event I only did it on one of my characters. Wasn't until the fourth day that I realized I could be doing it on all my characters. I would have had enough for Legend if I just had one more day to do it back then.

I've been told Concealment does decent DPS endgame. I don't know if that's true, but. Whatever.
Like...23? Dunno, been playing the Operative more. Not much more, Op's only like 25.

concealment is trash in pve
:( but i like it
[QUOTE=Zinayzen;43254069]:( but i like it[/QUOTE]
Stick with it then man if it works for you
sure, but if it's shitty then it's probably not good.
i should learn lethality, that tends to do really well.

Makes sense. Still, who'd fucking buy that pistol for 3 millions?
I wish they'd get rid of the awful launcher for this game, I want it to start up, give it a quick update if needed then let me play, not have it check the installation and waste my time.

Lethality is pretty darn good for PvE , and personally, it's a lot more fun than Concealment. It's a, load up the target and watch it melt spec. Check out the current leaderboards: [url]http://www.swtor.com/community/showthread.php?t=685275[/url]. If you look at the Lethality Operatives, they are parsing higher than the Marauders right now.
I don't know what your long term PvP goals are, if any, but that is another thing to consider. Operatives don't have much going for them outside of Medic. However, they are fortunate enough to be the best damn healers out there. If healing isn't your thing, then Operative may not be the PvP class for you. Concealment is not that great in 8v8s, at all. It can't pressure, and it can't defend well. Lethality is able to provide pressure, but it lacks real survivability as well. If Ranked is even a consideration, it's Medic or nothing.
Yeah, I'm kind of getting tired of Concealment already. Once I get Hidden Strike it might get better, but for now it's kind of boring. Lethality looks fun but I'm waiting until I can get Cull before I try it (might wait until like 40). I've yet to try healing, but I'm not opposed to healing so I'll try it out later on.
Cull is actually pretty fucking awesome, absolutely melts targets.
What level would I ought to be before trying to farm Black Talon for affection and alignment points?
Looks like the launcher messed up again, keeps hanging at 100% while updating.
Any ideas what could help other than reinstalling the game again?
I did that last month because of the same problem I'm having now..

around level 15-20, i think. haven't made an alt in a while.

have you tried using the repair launcher thing? usually i let it run for like 10 mins, cancel out, then relaunch again. it usually works

operative heals will probably make you change your mind about healing. i find it more fun to play as heal specced ops than dps
[QUOTE=Pnukup;43287525]What level would I ought to be before trying to farm Black Talon for affection and alignment points?[/QUOTE]
It's fastest at 55.
[QUOTE=Mr. Foster;43295626]It's fastest at 55.[/QUOTE]
Yes but it doesn't go faster to level up from 13 to 55 then it is to just do it at like level 20 or whatever it takes.
I don't know why you'd bother doing it anyway, it's honestly not worth it for the alignment gain (you'd get a ton more just from story leveling) and you only get rep for your first companion. And at least two of the companions require you to be in/past Act 3 before their personal story can advance, so why would you try to pump out a ton of affection before it even matters anyway?
Farming Black Talon/Esseles just for alignment/affection? That's something new. Everyone's farming them only for social points. And I don't think you need 55 for that. I can farm it fast enough on my level 42 Vang and last time I got tons of points. Wasn't in full group, btw.
Also, since I mentioned Vang, I've been thinking about making more tank toons. Of course I'll get 'tech up soon, but I was wondering, is it more/less difficult and more/less fun to be Guardian/Juggernaut and Shadow/Assassin tank? Especially I'm interested in Jugs, wanted to make Sith pureblood rule 63 of Vader.
