Happened to my 16man on a HM attempt.

Lemme be clear. We cleared all the trash up to the chest I don't even know why that guy would think we didn't honestly... but seeing as that's somehow in question... (couldn't possible be that the devs would screw up, that's just not possible!!) Looted Firebrand, headed down the corridors, killed 2 groups, (not the group in the back that's alone cause it's not in the way of anything)... clear that first group of 6 outside, made a right, clear a group where 2 are standing in the bunker and 2 stealthers... clear the group of 8 at the chest... no chest to be had!!! It was red and stayed red... In my book, thats what I call broken

Do you read patch notes? Have you raided today? My money is on NO. Obviously if I say they broke it.... it would imply it once worked... They changed the loot source but forgot to change the trigger that unlocks access to the bonus chest.

You broke it. The chest you have to clear to to get the extra commendations does not become available and stays red. I worked with a programmer who never tested anything once. He kept telling me he had fixed his part and everytime I'd integrate it with mine I'd discover it wasn't fixed or a new bug was created and he'd waste my time rather than take a few minutes to just test it out... eventually we fired him. I'm reminded of him today. Thx for the memories.

Looking for it too

Emplacement?

Hey I'd really like to be able to produce the full set of Imperial Guard looking armor set called: "Primeval Ardent Blade's XXXXX"... Currently only the only schematics that exist are the "leggings" and the "headgear"... the chest and gloves have to be bought with Corellia commendations... and who knows where the boots/belts/bracers come from... Some of the best looking gear (commendation and social) in the game is not really viable to wear if going for stats while there's a whole system in place... so my request: Can we please Reverse Engeneering planetary commendation/social gear for the schematic

Oh... the poor biochemists... they should be able to make belts and bracers on top of purple perma-medpacks and perma-stims... Whats the use of making $1.5 mil selling critted purple implants with augrment slots if you can't make a BoP wrist band /sarcasm_off

Synthweaving is useless... both leveling up and in the end game. With Planetary commendations... people have this currency they cannot spend on your crap and are forced to buy orange gear/purple mods with. Why would they spend valuable credits on your stuff tat they will need to use for a speeder when the only thing those commendations are good for is buying very decent gear to get them to the next level... In the end game there is no use for Synthweaving. Your daily commendation produce better results... AND you get to pick a desired appearance. Then you get into raid gear and the only thing you'll do with synthweaving is craft yourself a belt and wrist piece... can't even sell those. I think we need to be able to crit and have augment slots on our crafted purple... get more unique and desirable looks only available from crafters... (Heavy Armor Syth Trooper/Bomber Pilot Armor/Ancient Sith Armor...Ludo Kressh & Naga Sadow style) Bring in crafted armor set bonuses... Maybe abilities or stats boost... maybe just stylized stuff like the set bonus makes you character a foot taller... a rare set bonus makes your character "ghost like" like a force apparution... a racial set bonus that gives you a more pronouced Sith race look like the Massassi... Right now set bonuses are on 2 and 4 piece... what if Crafted bonus can appear on 3 and 5 piece and can stack with the regular ones (an upcomming patch will let you remove set bonuses and apply em to other gear) Anyways... there's tons of stuff that can be done to make those crafting proffessions more desirable. PRO TIP: If you're gonna disagree "entirely" and claim that it pays off in the end... state why it pays off... not why in every imaginable instance it sucks balls.

You can get the glowie without getting the boss... if you can get everyone to die down the stairs and a stealth guy to stay up and lose agro you can rez up ... No clue how far you can get though. And of course if you die. later on, you're spawning at that boss' location
