Got one worse for you, hehe. I am now rank 184, and i've started getting green 174 gear.. no, i am not joking.. 80-90 percent of what i pick up is below rank 180. Its starting to get just a tad... annoying

I was solo (doing "The Black Talon" flash point).

Same thing happened to me (also a Deception Assassin). Got tank gear upon tank gear for whatever strange reason. Then it suddenly stopped (this far at least).. and i've only been getting "appropriate" DPS pieces for a day or so. I didn't change the character in any way, so i have no idea what might have caused it.

Doesn't work at all for me. Slicing works as it should, for both companion and myself, with log entries, etc. Scavenging and Bioanalysis doesn't work at all (i get the loot window, but that closes in a tenth of a second). Log remains empty. I've not tried Archeology yet.

ahh, goodie. Its not just your companion, its you as well (you get the gathering window, but that closes in a tenth of a second, and the log remains empty). Slicing shows up in the log as it should. Bioanalysis and Scavenging does not (not been able to try Archeology yet). Hoping they'll be able to fix this quickly

And that is ridiculously annoying... not where the mats go.. but the complete lack of feedback.. If you go out and need 50 Biofibers... you can no longer look at the log window, now you have to open the new panel, type in the material (or scroll around to find it), and see the amount you have. You cant even tell if you've actually picked up anything at all, unless you look at your minimap for icons disappearing, or if you get a skillup from gathering in your log. This is not 1 step backwards in game design, its turning around and running full tilt.

Thanx for the update Eric

Didn't see that coming

I believe he meant the patch notes, not the actual servers post patch

Dont think the battery is switchable, and i dont think they do physical keys anymore. They do a digital security key, for mobiles. You can read about that here.

Maintenance for : 4:00AM - 10:00AM PDT (1200 - 1800 BST) New level cap of 75 (and 700 for professions). To start the new expansion, you need to have completed the Ossus storyline.

Which is normal, its still 3 or so hours to go of maintenance

Yup, all patched and ready to go

No idea as such, but i imagine that there will be a story starting quest for the new expansion, and that you can take this quest regardless of having touched KOFTE / KOTET or not.

Thanx a lot for the explanation, very very helpful
