Brilliant and bravo!

Thanks for the heads up. That's really dumb, but it's still a nice item. I guess the text stating that it doesn't stack with XP bonuses from other sources doesn't just mean other boosts. Sorry you had to find out the hard way, but thanks for letting everyone know.

Black Hole Armorings have been slot specific since their implementation. End of story.

This is essentially what BW/EA are doing. Except, instead of giving subscribers 30% or 50% off , subscribers get a stipend of 500 CC each month. A stipend is a more brilliant solution, being that it encourages you to use the Cartel Market. This will inevitably increase your familiarization with using the Cartel Market, thus increasing the likelyhood that you will buy CC. Giving a discount would not have the same effect. If you're suggesting having the stipend and the discount, that makes very little business sense.

I don't think adaptive armor should be bind on legacy. Once you purchase 4 sets (one for each main stat) you can gear out any character or companion for the cost of mailing items. It would take a while to achieve, but once you're done, you're done.

I'd rather you allow biochem crafters to make dyes, and add primary secondary and tertiary dye slots to all items. There are armor models in the game that only exist as unmoddable items. Change this, or allow crafters to learn to craft moddable versions of these when they are RE'd.

110% or 130% of 0 is 0. Kitru was talking about why opening combat with taunt does very little for threat generation.

Morale is the same as HP. Some games use the term Morale instead of Hit Points (Lord Of The Rings Online).

Two pieces of advice: 1) Join a guild that has people who are leveling around your same pace and group with them as much as possible. 2) Use the Group Finder feature (upper left hand corner of your mini-map) Don't be afraid to jump right in and get wet.

Hold on a sec. You can behave based on: "Well the Internet is a faceless medium of communication, and there really won't be any repercussions for what I write to some other person, so it's okay for me to not be civil, gracious, and kind." But when someone performs an action that is completely working as intended (e.g.; rolling Need on a virtual item in a video game on the Internet), you are up-in-arms about it? I'm just assuming you're unaware of how contradictory your side of this conversation is.

I inspect every BH I encounter in a FP. If he/she has Columi for the slot in question, then I'd say he doesn't need it. I'll roll Need np. If it's an upgrade for him, then I typically let him have it. I will say that the tone of your post is very judgemental. I really don't appreciate you deciding that some random, hypothetical person's time is more important than mine. Exactly how would that make you feel? Usually at the beginning of the FP, if I'm there for my companion's gear, I'll let the group know. If they don't like it, they can leave. Based on your logic, I'd have to spend half of my time gearing up someone else. Fun.

I'm a Bounty Hunter tank. I need absolutely nothing for my main spec from HM FPs. However, I run HM FPs for the sole purpose of gearing up my Aim-using DPS companion. This kills two birds with one stone, as that set of Columi is also my DPS off-spec set. If I take the time to run a HM FP, I have every right to roll Need on gear for my companion that uses my main stat. This is especially true since I've already completed my main-spec gear. Main-spec > Off-spec > Companion > Vendor If I've completed my main-spec, I don't need those pieces anymore, as now I Need my off-spec gear. Having said all of that, I would never Need on gear that drops for an IA Operative without the permission of the group.

At 19 there really isn't a huge difference between a dps and a tank. In fact tank-pecced clases don't feel tanky until around 30. I personally don't have a set pace I tank at. If I'm pulling too fast for the healer's resource system to recover to optimal levels, or my dps and/or healer are pulling faster than I am, I need to adjust my pace accordingly. Changing pace may be stressful @ first (especially speeding up, but doing so will make you more confident in your tanking abilities.

I believe you need to complete chapter 2.
