Last boss of the new Karagga's Palace, 16 man normal. Is actually not too bad. Though one of the bosses leading up to it was lame. You know how pylons is a puzzle boss? There's another puzzle boss. I like that Bioware are trying to mix up encounter design, but I dislike these puzzle bosses as a personal preference | ||

49 Sage, 4 Smuggler What is your previous MMO experience? Runescape, Phantasy Star Online, Phantasy Star Universe What do you enjoy most about the game? PvP, Companion System, Crafting System What are your plans going forward? (hardcore PvE/PvP, mass alts, etc) Get Valor up to 60, get all the crafting schematics to artifact, then make alts. If you have left, or are considering it, what are the reasons? (lack of content, uncompetetive PvP/PvE, etc) I considered leaving because I'm in a shitty inactive guild, but have made a significant number of friends on my server so I can still play pvp/pve with a group of trusted people. If there was something realistic bioware could do to make the game significantly better for you, what is it? Probably something on my end, but I find it upsetting I get 5 bars of moves, including the companion, but have no easy way to access and switch between bars making me have to use to click things. I can't tell you how frustrating it is to be unable to get passes off in huttball because of chained stuns, and I can't make it something easy like shift+3 to pass. how about worse? They could buff the opperative. That would make my experience even worse. What are your predictions concerning the future of the game? The game needs more planets. I was a little dissapointed when I learned there was no Kashyk. | ||

What do you enjoy most about the game? Story and flashpoints, it's PvP isn't quite as fun as WoW's IMO, but the story and some of the flashpoints are fantastic. Also the assasin and operative ACs are refreshingly different from pretty much any class I can think of in wow. Being able to stealth AND heal/tank (operative/assasin) is really fun. What are your plans going forward? (hardcore PvE/PvP, mass alts, etc) PvE mostly I think, though in wow I was mostly a pvp guy If you have left, or are considering it, what are the reasons?

GTN sucks balls and too many loading screens how about worse? What are your predictions concerning the future of the game? seems to just be getting better and better. | ||

For Example: Yesterday I ran "Finding Our Way" (T5) four times at a cost of 1930 each run. My results were 4434, 3531, 3014, and 5924. None of my companions have affection over 3k. More data is obviously needed but it looks promising so far. EDIT: Must've been a mistake by Bioware because profits are waaayy down again after the emergency patch, back to the way they were after the nerf. I'm willing to bet they forgot to carry the nerf over to the 1.1 update and rectified that with the emergency patch this morning. | ||

Both of us pvp'ed a ton in WoW, and I was a hardcore raider in a world ranked guild. So, we both cancelled our subs after this patch even though we were enjoying it prior to the patch. We both were always, ALWAYS top dmg on the warzones we played, and enjoyed pvping together. So why did we cancel? Because this patch royally fucked pvp. It is literally impossible for us to pvp on our server. We waited in queue for 7 hours for a warzone today and never got into one. There is a grand total of about 50 level 50's on our server imperial side and over 200 on republic side. Out of those 50 on imperial side only 10 pvp. So for us to even get into a queue 6 of those 10 have to be online and queuing. Now we could sit here and wait and hope more people hit 50, but we aren't waiting months and paying money for nothing. Not to mention ilum is totally fucked. But everyone knows about that. Then there is the whole valor shit. I am really disappointed. This truly was the TORtanic. BTW if your an assassin 31/0/10 is by far the best pvp specialization. And marauder is definitively Rage spec as well. But GLHF to anyone staying with it. I'm jealous of the servers you guys decided to play on i am a tank spec assassin but imo 31/0/10 aint that good. i find 25/0/16 far better. at least for pvp. the thrash critical dmg is irreplacable for me since i spam thrash all the time for the shock proc of darkness tree. also, death field is equivalent to wither (unupgraded wither that is, and i dont got the points to spend on 20% wither dmg) and the instant crushing darkness is awesome. here is my skill tree plz let me know what you feel is best. http://www.torhead.com/skill-calc#200rIMokrskZZf0cRr0z.1 | ||

I've also noticed I'm regularly proccing lockboxes with ~5.5k credits in them whereas before I was lucky to break even. Looks like they stealth-reverse-nerfed Slicing which I like. | ||

Why do they do it all at the same time anyway? "Here you go americans have it while your sleeping, europeans? meh collateral damage" is a really bad way to go about it IMO -.- | ||

I can't tell you how frustrating it is to be unable to get passes off in huttball because of chained stuns, and I can't make it something easy like shift+3 to pass. . You can, in fact, set Shift+3 to select your skills on the secondary skill bar. You can set up customs hotkeys to activate your alternate bars. I use Shift for my 2nd bar, rebound Control to my 3rd bar, and rebound ALT to my companion. What level characters do you have and of what classes? 23 Sage, 15 Marauder What is your previous MMO experience? City of Heroes, D2 What do you enjoy most about the game? Lightsabers What are your plans going forward? (hardcore PvE/PvP, mass alts, etc) Bring balance to the force. Find a purple lightsaber. Bang Vette. If you have left, or are considering it, what are the reasons? (lack of content, uncompetetive PvP/PvE, etc) Actually enjoying this game, but StarCraft 2 takes up too much of a time to really play out my characters If there was something realistic bioware could do to make the game significantly better for you, what is it? I'm really enjoying this game. I'm not level 50 and haven't PvP'ed much, so I haven't yet had to deal with most of the issues people complain about. Also the new patch seemed to have corrected some of my graphics issues. how about worse? They could send me back to Tython. Oh wait, they do. What are your predictions concerning the future of the game? No Kashyyk. Very little variance in the lightsabers (pretty much only green, red, yellow, blue, orange sabers). No Yoda-esque playable character. If these aren't changed I imagine this game will be dead by the time the D3 beta comes out. | ||

50 Powertech, 40 Juggernaut What is your previous MMO experience? WoW, Guild Wars, Age of Conan, Rift What do you enjoy most about the game? Raiding, Levelling (I never like levelling!) What are your plans going forward? (hardcore PvE/PvP, mass alts, etc) Get my Juggernaut raid geared because he has sick mitigation compared to the BH. Then clear everything. And hopefully level 1 of every main class to 50. If you have left, or are considering it, what are the reasons? (lack of content, uncompetetive PvP/PvE, etc) Currently, I just wish they'd stop fucking up maintenence times for the EU. Expected maintenence 4pm GMT - 8pm GMT? So 9pm CET, etc. Enough people complained when it was 10am til 4pm. They want to have it at peak time? That's pretty awful. If there was something realistic bioware could do to make the game significantly better for you, what is it? Allow UI customisation. Not through addons, just let me drag and resize the stuff on screen (like LOTRO did). Oh and also, whatever they did in 1.1 that stopped abilities on CD being greyed out, I want them to undo. If I have a longer CD (say 1-2 minutes) with like 10 seconds left, there is no way to tell by looking at the button that it's still on CD. how about worse? The problem with this question is there's a lot already wrong with the game, bugs wise. If we're talking a design perspective, what they changed with Soa hardmode in this patch was a dumb nerf. What are your predictions concerning the future of the game? Although I love it, I see it going the way of Rift within a year. Still active and still producing content, but dropping subs, especially when Pandas come out. It'll make me sad if it does though. | ||

I'm not sure if it's the rendering engine or server-client communication protocol but the game lags/framerate goes to shit anytime there are more than 20 or so players/NPCs around. Also the loading screen times are pretty long and annoying (especially the open world planets like Alderaan and Tatooine). I'm sure they'll eventually fix all these problems and the game will become a lot of fun. I just hope their entire player base abandons them and goes back to Panda-land... | ||

I really hope they rollback valor after this exploit in ilum otherwise there's gonna be a lot of angry players that won't forgive bioware - even though this game really is a blast.I agree with PvP being really fun. I don't like instanced PvP as much, but the combat is so fun I don't mind doing it in ToR. Although I don't see why all the complaints about valor. On my server it took people over 3 hours just to get their damn ilum daily done. I guess maybe some servers had issues with that, but it's not like valor is hard to get anyway. I've only PvPed with about half of my play time and I'm at valor 47. I figure in another week of normal play I'll probably be 60, and I don't care if people are 60 already. People are so uptight. With that said, Bioware already mentioned that they are aware of the people who abused the system and got large valor gains, and they are going to handle it. Do people even realize how bad a rollback would suck? A full rollback would punish EVERYONE and piss off more people than are upset now. If I had to choose I would let the people keep the valor rather than lose my own valor gains. But luckily we don't even have to choose, since they say they are going to handle it. So the angry people need to stop bitching long enough to read that it's going to be handled. | ||
