This shows because the lightsaber you are trying to upgrade is a non-upgradable lightsaber. The item you want to upgrade needs to have augment slots available for upgrading. you can ctrl+right-click to upgrade your items without using an augment bench.

In options you can change it so it will say: "Lord Execute" "of The Lordexecute Legacy" Or totally turn it off so you don't need to look at it. I messed up my name as well. Not as bad as you though.

There currently is no way to preview weapons. Would love for it to be added in game. As well as previewing mounts.

Some chest loots don't open if you wipe in a flashpoint. Not sure if it intended or a bug.

Finished it fast but I only did it when I was heavily over-leveled for it. Got a few good drops. If the flashpoint has chests with green or red circles on them you need to finish the encounter the first time(no wiping) or the chest will be un-openable.

Was he a light armor user? It could be possible it was an upgrade for him. Please ask group mates if it is okay for you to roll need for a companion. Rolling need in a group for a companion is socially unacceptable since the companion is not used in groups. Later in the game you will have 4+ companions with variety of weapons and armor. Does this mean you will selfishly role need on every piece that drops just so you can gear all your companions? This topic has been over-argued sorry for continuing it.

LFG Tool This is not a post about getting a looking for group tool. This is about the Looking For Group tool already in game. Playing Flashpoints I found people just sitting in fleet spamming general chat for more group players. Even some where heading to other worlds to spam chat there. 1 Suggestion is to go to social window. Click the who tab. Type in balmorra, Shaddaa or some other planet that is the level you require. It will display players on that planet with those LFG tagged uptop. For those who want to do FP and also solo quest, tag yourself LFG FP or LFG Athiss for example. I want to see more tags out there so I can pick up players quickly.

Strength Does increase your mellee power. as an Assassin so does Willpower. BioWare streamlined the stats so they wouldn't have to have a huge amount of different stat gear and could streamline the gear easier.

I remember running through it with 2mercs, myself as powertech and a sorc picked up a chest piece, gloves, blaster and offhand shield on that run. Mercs where pisssed saying I needed on everything but they where all upgrades i equipped right there.

There was a way to get around the lockout and retry your security question over and over. Hope they fixed it though as it is a serious security breach.

In a lot of Flashpoints the purple items are bind on pickup. You can not trade if you make an oops. "If in doubt greed"

If you right click the new pistol in your inventory it should replace your old in your Character sheet. You can also drag and drop the new pistol onto the pistol slot. The old one then should be in your inventory go to a vendor and sell it. Hovering above the items does nothing except showing you the tooltips for them. If the above does not happen /bug it ingame and you will get customer support help.

Is there a /random or /dice command in the game? Find it very useful for PUG when using a master loot system.

Name can be changed as stated above by having it reported as offensive. If you pay money to transfer server you often get a free name change thrown in. This is in other games not sure if it is possible in SWTOR yet. Otherwise reroll or somehow get a GM to be buddy with you(sexual favors work sometimes ).
