Group Finder is supposed to be to allow the easy build of groups for quick action. Without the ability to change our discipline or loadout, it's extremely restrictive, and annoying. The biggest issue is when I say that I'm available for Tank or DPS to be able to quickly get into a group and help fill groups in whatever role is most needed - and then when the group pops I can't change to the right role because of the Group Finder restriction. That's insane. Either take away this restriction or take away the ability to queue for two roles. OR... please allow me as a Healer/Tank/DPS across my two combat styles to queue for all three!!!

You know at first, I thought you were talking about something really minor to be complaining about, and overall I still think that. I never noticed an issue. Now that I've read this, and I look directly at the black squares, I do see the optical pain and headache they cause. Weird.

What is the fastest chapter to complete that still provides CXP?
NwahsNirom replied to Lundorff's topic in General Discussion
I totally see where you're coming from. I am not the kind of person to grind a chapter more than 4 or 5 times in a row. But, when I see the bonus is for Chapters, and I'm in the mood to do a few to relive the story, do something kind of mindless, and work towards better gear which has several uses and joy that comes with it, I want to know what chapter and what difficulty is best to do it for. Plus I find the timing of the runs and the challenge of speed running, as well as the math to determine the cxp/min with and without boosts and all that enjoyable for the afternoon. Really, this new CXP system allows people to do whatever they want at that moment and get one set of progress towards gear. Some people are always gonna want to do whatever gears them up fastest, which is the really just them wanting to feel like they are "beating the game" fastest. With the daily CXP bonus on different activities, that really helps give incentive to play other activities. -

Note that all this is kind of just looking at the clock, by the minute, not using a stop-watch for an exact second-by-second comparison. I may go to that length at some point if there's enough demand to test it. -

Chapter 2 of KotFE is a bit faster, and you get more CXP for the final boss in there. My stats were a 5 minute completion, with +72cxp for the mob at the end (lol) and the 1520 for the chapter. 1592 in 5 minutes comes out to 318.4 CXP/minute with the daily bonus of +20%. Or, 265.33/min without daily bonus. Chapter 1 on story was 213.8pts per minute without bonus. -

In case anyone is curious, I did some math on Chapter 1. I saw today the 20% bonus was applied to Chapters so I decided to do some math to decide, should I do Chapter 1 on Story, Veteran, or Master? I did them all. Some notes: I'm a Jedi Guardian main, with 230/240 tank gear, 6piece set bonus. So that's what I did Master mode on. It took me 15 minutes, but I'm sure I could shave a few minutes off. I think I even died at one point and I attacked some mob groups I could have skipped. So I plan to try again. Anyway, this was without a CXP boost applied to my character, but all 5 Legacy CXP boosts purchased, and obviously the 5.1 major CXP serverwide bonuses we have, and the daily 20%. Chapter 1, Guardian, tank spec, Master mode: 15 minutes, 3950pts, for 263.33CXP/minute. Without the 20% daily boost, that would be 219.33CXP/min. Chapter 1, Guardian, Vigilance spec, Veteran mode: 10 minutes, 2565pts, 256CXP/minute. Chapter 1, Guardian, Vigilance spec, Story mode: 6 minutes, 1520pts, 253.33CXP/minute. Pretty amazing how close all those values are. It seems Story mode is the quickest and (obviously easiest) with still great value for your time. Master could get you more points (my 15 minutes could be cut down which means you could probably get over 270/280CXP/minute) for your time, but there's more risk as the fights are a bit of a challenge (you have to pay attention to what your'e doing). I'm interested in doing this math for other game activities and other Chapters. -
Hey guys, I had a question for my guild. With the change coming to loot drops in Galactic Command on Tuesday, will loot tables for bosses be totally random? Or will they follow the 4.0 layout? I hope random, or at least I hope the EV/KP loot is a tier lower than all other raids so they aren't the only raids worth farming. Also, what gear levels will drop for each difficulty level? Story ops have a chance to drop 234 or 230? Which will drop 240? Thanks.

Some updates! We've grown our member base to 80 qualifying accounts, so 80 unique members with 571 total guild characters. We are doing really well in Conquest, and our Guild Ship is somewhere around the 5th or 7th most "prestigious" and completed Guild Ship on the Republic on the server. We continue to improve it and open it up. 5 more rooms to open. We farm NiM Nefra every week, then go for a HM raid and go for new kills. Tonight we got down HM DF bosses 2 and 3 for the first time in 5.0. We continue to have 1 or 2 pvp groups going every night, especially non raid nights. Looking for more pvpers, raiders, and Conquest players.
