Dunno how a got a second post in here. My bad.

HE KILLED THE YOUNGLINGS! I'd guess evil.

I like it, it isn't everything that I had it hyped up to be (is anything? ever?) but it's still what I spend most of my gaming time on, I'm a single player gamer before anything but I have been having great fun running Flashpoints and even the two Operations we did this week. TL;DR Yes.

Cool, helpful tips, It's something of a relief to know that it ISN'T a glitch and we're just doing it wrong. Guess next weekend we'll just make our console guys practice for a good ten minutes to get warmed up. I like the tank technique where one is down tanking the other is handling the consoles and the sage pulls when needed, that might be a hell of a lot more helpful than wasting an additional dps on a console. Appreciated to those who gave tips.

They were hitting the consoles the second they were able to. It was fast. But as I said, I watched a video with a dude screwing up the consoles, he did it at least three times that I noticed, but his team still downed the bastard, video was uploaded on January 20, which is why I'm asking if anyone has downed him since the last patch or not.

So we tried our hand at KP for the first time this weekend, after about 6 wipes on Heavy Fabricator we got frustrated and gave up. We all watched videos going into it and made sure our guys on the consoles knew what they were doing. We had two tanks for the fight, Vanguard and Guardian. Our healers were a Commando and a Scoundrel. DPS we had a Sentinel, two Commandos, and a Gunslinger. We were barely getting him past the halfway mark before he enraged. As for gear, we made sure everyone had at LEAST full daily comms mods but everyone had at least two pieces of Columi gear. The strategy we were employing was two men up top, one on the right console, the other on the center and left. The mines (at our healers behest) we simply ran into to explode. One of the videos I watched showed just one guy up top manning the consoles and he was screwing up pretty often but they still managed to down the boss. Our guys up top were hitting the consoles quick with not one screw up and still, barely over 1/2 hp down on the guy and he enrages. Now one of our team said he read (somewhere) that the boss is currently glitched and people are reporting that he's harder on normal mode than he is on the hard mode. So my question is simple; has anyone been able to down him (within the last week at the latest) or is he legit glitched? Second question, if he is NOT glitched; what could we be doing wrong? Tips would be appreciated.

Around 12 days /played, started day one of early access.

Disagree. /thread. There's plenty to do. You're just not looking. /serious rofl. This made me laugh.

Let's put it a bit more simply. Talk to the group first about what you want to do. If everyone agrees, cool. Also look at it this way. the armor in your OP only dropped because the Sith Warrior was in your group, if he hadn't been in your group you wouldn't have even seen the armor in the first place, so it makes more sense that it's HIS. Run the FP again until YOUR armor drops.

...lol nice bro. Nice. I don't think I've done more than maybe 10 minutes of afk either. Just curious about how much of a window we have.

Technically no one is paying them yet. Early (free) Access. Sure some of us may have gotten our physical copies but that point is pretty well and truly moot.

Bump. Sorry. Had to be done.

Do we know how long it takes before you're logged out for being afk?

Short story: LS/DS points are only obtained by YOUR choices. You choose to kill the guy but your teammate chooses to spare em and he wins the roll, you still get the DS points. Flashpoints effecting story: It's my understanding that stuff that goes on in FPs *MOSTLY* stays in FPs. You may hear mention of saving the crew of the Esseles in your story but I understand any REAL consequences that come from it are only shown in FPs. (Supposedly Grand Moff Kilran is gonna come after me. Yea.)

Favorite: Playing. Least favorite: Being on the unofficially designated Aussie server Not that I dislike Aussies. The chicks have great accents. Just that well. High pop.
