  1. Hi, I was really enjoying the Theoretika mission on my quest to get HK-51. Went through it, killed the boss, then saw that I had only one or two crew logs, so I decided to hang out and find the rest. That worked out until I fell down a hole and died. I could only respawn at the med center, and the med center is outside the instance. And you can't reenter, even if you haven't finished the bonus quest. I was a bit put out. Maybe put the spawn point inside the instance? Like it was when I mysteriously died while killing the boss? (I died from 0 dmg from "Kill Target.") By the way, there's a bug in the boss fight that murders you randomly.
  2. An interrupt will be nice, I guess, and I get the Electro Dart thing, but no knockback on Rocket Punch?! I LIVE on that in Huttball! D: So Powertechs can just yank people into fire, but I can't even luck out and punch someone into one anymore unless I use my long-cooldown Jet Boost?
  3. What you call "boring" I call "convenient." I was missing that lack of diversity on my Sith Warrior, where the only companion that could take my hand-me-downs was Broonmark - who is a tank and thus useless to my Jugg. Quinn and Vette could share, at least, but Jaesa and Pierce just have to be different. If it makes you feel better, no non-Force-using class gets Force-using companions, as far as I understand it. Anyway, I think our entourage kind of makes sense. You have your support woman, who hacks and heals. Then a target you turned into a useful asset, a Mandalorian who helps you mesh into your new peer group that much better (and who also cooks for you to be romantic), a resourseful little follower to feed your ego and, uh, Skadge. Actually, I'm still not sure why I have Skadge on my ship.
  4. This is the very thing that made me stop tearing my hair out at this game. Hit space THEN W, just a split second from one another. Also, as mentioned, angled jumping is good. Seriously, it's ridiculous how much farther you can jump with space-then-w. Way more effective and controllable than running jumps.
  5. I mean, you had most of an extra week to spend them. But like an above poster said, if you put in a ticket and explain the bug thing, someone might be nice and give you the gear you want.
  6. Hey, that actually makes a lot of sense. It also makes a little sense that the accents are more segregated in the Old Republic era, since there are literally Republic planets and Empire planets at the moment. It's still a biit too segregated to be perfectly logical just a generation after the war that established the two powers as separate, though.
  7. How much money do you have that you can transfer a set's-worth of purple mods on "a whim?"
  8. Target of Focus Target would solve this, I think. Heal forwarding is more controversial, I think, but having the tank selected but the boss focused so you can see who he's murdering - that would be nice. Or, for DPSing, having the tank focused while killing things would mean I could always switch to the correct mob once my current one is dead without extra clicks. EDIT: Wait, MyDarkSunshine, there's target of focus target already?? Where do I enable that?
  9. You and many, many others (myself included). They're probably being lazy and holding paid transfers off FOR the cash shop, though, rather than setting up a separate transaction service for it.
  10. The sad thing is that this game has some lovely music. I particularly love landing on Alderaan and hearing the opening of "Alderaan the Throne," until like five minutes later, when I'm riding a speeder in total silence. They either need to loop sections of the tracks after the initial playthrough or commission some low-key, ambient music to play in the background. Something smoky and sleazy for when you're wandering the alleys of Nar Shaddaa, lots of wind chimes and light flute for Hoth, etc.
  11. My augmented War Hero hands actually work better for my current itemization than the Rakata ones, so I'd lose the four-piece set bonus. That is my plan for my Jugg, though... or was until I realized how terrible the rest of Columi looks with her Red Reaper chest. D:
  12. I had absolutely no intention of being mean to anyone, but that is a point worth bringing up, thank you. The idea is to figure out what is going wrong and why, so that the game can be more fun for everyone. If I was falling on my face playing, it wouldn't just be bad for my group - it would be bad for me when I inevitably pulled down whatEVER group I joined, kind of making the entire game suck for me in the process.
  13. I'm going to assume you're not being a confrontational ******** and insinuating that I specifically am the problem. Then I'll reiterate that we're about to pull out MoxParser to see who's lagging behind, because yes, someone obviously has some derp going. I can completely agree with that. I call out weird gearing if I see it (our new tank is a good example - crit and surge implants, really?), and our healers WILL yell at you if you injure yourself stupidly, but I can't nanny people's rotations during raids. By process of elimination, rotation or talent tree point allocation has to be where the problem is. It's just, it also seemed rougher than normal, on top of new-member weirdness. I can generally balance out a sub-par DPS toon with my mercenary, but it was not cutting it yesterday.
  14. I'm mostly augmented now, but argh, that annoys the crap out of me. I kind of hate the augment system. It used to be an extra thing that you didn't really NEED to worry about. Now it's a mini-tier and an essential money sink - make or buy the kits and augments, plus another kit for every new piece of gear, plus pay to remove the augment from the old slot... Rinse and repeat with PVE and PVP gear or die.
