Talahar Posted September 26, 2012 Share Posted September 26, 2012 I often forgot to click the quicktravel console when I started at a new mission hub. Of course I only realized that when I was done with the missions from there and wanted to get back quickly. Of course, once I got there again, by what ever means I took, it didn't matter anymore if I clicked it then, because I had to go off to the next mission hub. (actually, because of that I think it's stupid design. it's a click it, good, don't click it, bad, afterwards doesn't metter thing. It should just activate once you get near and be done, in my opinion) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kaisernick Posted September 26, 2012 Share Posted September 26, 2012 For me, it was when i finally got to chose the Advanced Class for My Sith. I decided to go with Sith Assassin, and off I went on my merry way. It took me about 10 levels until I realised that the strange bag that appeared in my inventory was full of the items I needed to become the Assassin.... yeah your ot the only one they really need to explain that more Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DarthSpooky Posted September 26, 2012 Share Posted September 26, 2012 Every deep elevator shaft I've fallen down or high cliff I've ever fallen off of ranks high, but... I actually got stuck during (Foundry Spoilers), The boss fight with Revan. I was 50 so it was all good, but I spent 90% of the fight jammed up in a corner trying hold aggro on a guy I couldn't even SEE. Finally it let me go, right before we brought him down. More of an embarrassment than a failure, but it kinda hurt the moment. Also, this epic moment soloing on Voss: "Oh, it's forbidden? I think I'll click it!" Shortest. Fight. Ever.

Khamil Posted September 27, 2012 Share Posted September 27, 2012 I rarely mess up big, which kinda make the error I did in the blackhole quest Glow that much more amusing. I didnt realize there was a protective device to use to avoid damage from the ground in the center area so I always ran in with healer companion and charged the mobs nearly dying to complete the quest, for about 2 months. Figured that yellow beam from corpses was just a mission stage item Anyhow, thats how you do Glow HM. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Evgen Posted September 27, 2012 Share Posted September 27, 2012 (edited) we made them say "Mara's are not tanks, I am a dps not a tank" before we rezzed them:p Ha ha! That's awesome! Being the smartazz I am I would have just done the auto rez myself and /fistbump'ed you when I got back My biggest fail was duoing the Esseles, after they had changed that large bonus melee robot Champion. And we kept wiping. They changed him so that he drops a large target circle centred on himself, and no matter how hard I ran, as the healer, to get out of the way, he would target me with a continuous beam that would kill me despite healing and medpacks in a few seconds. After about the 4th time I realized you should be inside the circle to avoid the attack Reyl can't belive that just happened Edited September 27, 2012 by Evgen Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

POPsi Posted September 27, 2012 Share Posted September 27, 2012 Going into pug LI HM without checking the tank's hp/gear. Turned out he was at somewhere 14 k hp, and got 1 hit by the first boss while standing in the yellow thingy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Skallgrimson Posted September 27, 2012 Share Posted September 27, 2012 By far my biggest fail is selling off all of those nifty orange items you get from class quests because on my first toon (and my main no less) I didn't understand orange gear will the mid 40's. Come to find out some of that gear is unique with no other way to obtain. Still irks me to this day. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marrwen Posted September 27, 2012 Share Posted September 27, 2012 At the start of SWTOR my friend inturduced me to SWTOR i thought it was magnificent. He was playing a Jedi consular shadow and i was going to roll sage, so we could do FP's and stuff much easier with a healer and tank. So i get to lvl 10 to chose my advance class, happier than every. Not reading anything but sees that shadow is a bad *** way to go. So thinking that i could change my advance class further to the end i chose Shadow. This is still an amusing joke to my friends Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
natashina Posted September 27, 2012 Share Posted September 27, 2012 (edited) I've got a few: 1) Not knowing about R/E'ing items. That was a lot of recipes I could have learned, but I sold them instead. 2) The older hot air balloon bug. Getting 3/4rds of the way to the datacron, not tabbed out or afk, but dropped like a rock out in the middle of nowhere. Good times. 3) This one is pretty funny. So I'm in Voss and on my Jugg tanking a quest with my husband's BH (while he was doing dps w/ minions healing.) I'm moving along, AoE taunting, when next thing I know I see a flash on my screen and I'm dead. Suddenly, from behind me, I hear this giggling. My husband does not giggle, unless something like this happens. Me: "Doup, what did you do?" Doup: <giggle> Me: "Doup, why am I dead?!?" Doup:<giggle> "I wanted to push the big red button." Me: "You what?!" Doup: "I didn't think it would kill us." Me: "After almost a decade of mmos, you didn't think pushing the big red button could kill us? Really?" Doup: "I was kinda hoping it wouldn't." Me: <blink, blink> Doup: "...I'll pay your repair bill." It was a fun way to die.

VegaPhone Posted September 27, 2012 Share Posted September 27, 2012 (edited) Not playing with friends. I made some in game friends, but my old MMO buddies were vets of MMOs so raids, pvp and even min maxing would have been figured all out by them and we could have shared the info and benefited each other. So I guess I had it easy before, and my expectations were high as well. Also played with elitists, so I am used to being with perfectionists. Which is who I am anyways. I just dont like lazy people, or people who drag others down. For example someone playing drunk and thinking its a valid reason to not be good at the game.

Joesixxpack Posted September 27, 2012 Share Posted September 27, 2012 For me, it was when i finally got to chose the Advanced Class for My Sith. I decided to go with Sith Assassin, and off I went on my merry way. It took me about 10 levels until I realised that the strange bag that appeared in my inventory was full of the items I needed to become the Assassin.... ^ THIS. I did this with my first two toons, and actually put the bags in cargo hold to free up inventory space. One day on voip with my buddy I mumbled something like "What's this useless bag? I'm gonna delete it." He said "what bag, your advanced class bag?"

bravotwentysev Posted September 27, 2012 Share Posted September 27, 2012 my biggest fail... rushing on RE'ing stuff and RE'ing my PVP gear back before they gave it to you. After mass days of PVPing and getting my bags and PVP gear. Got my legs, chest, and helm from the bags. WOOT WOOT! Went on a mass spree of building stuff to RE and had a full load in my toon. Went to RE's everything thinking I put all my usefull stuff in my cargo hold. OOOPPSS! their went my PVP gear. DANG IT! Thats the day I stopped PVPing didnt want to regear all over again.

lklinga Posted September 27, 2012 Share Posted September 27, 2012 Soon after release, I'm doing Hammer Station with my brother. I'm tanking, he's healing, companions are DPS. We start getting near the end, and I cross this energy-looking bridge across a tube and pull a pack. Everything's going smoothly, the pack's nearly down when I notice my brother's toon is suddenly dead. So I finish off the pack, and run back onto the bridge to see what happened to him. Then the bridge disappeared and I died too. Similar thing Only one that survived was the Jedi Knight who just second before the bridge turned off leaped to mob on other side.

Qarran Posted September 27, 2012 Share Posted September 27, 2012 lol. Just thought of another one that happens all the time while I'm doing dailies. So... pub side, Blackhole, the Toxic Waste quest. Invariably, I will always push the limits of the buff that keeps you from dying in order to finish the quest as fast as I can. The result? I die trying to plug one to many toxic spews. lol!

Borgbunny Posted September 27, 2012 Share Posted September 27, 2012 On my first toon, my Sage, I Reverse Engineered my light saber out of existence. It took a REALLY long time to get another one. Was stuck with training foils until I did. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I decided to go with Sith Assassin, and off I went on my merry way. It took me about 10 levels until I realised that the strange bag that appeared in my inventory was full of the items I needed to become the Assassin.... You're not alone in that one. I did it in beta, and my brother did it as well. I think it was sometime after Christmas before he figured it out. He also did the "What's the PvP terminal?" deal, when I asked him about his free 320k credits or Recruit gear choice. Just last week, he asked me where the terminal was for the daily quests. Prior to that, I'd pick them up and share them. Don't know how he didn't figure out that it's right next to where you turn them in. Myself, I walked from the GTN terminal to the bank slots in the center of the station for a week before I noticed the new banks over next to the guild bank area. I got one character all the way to Alderaan before deciding to buy a personal speeder once. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OmenQ Posted September 27, 2012 Share Posted September 27, 2012 Summoning the Nightmare Pilgrim on Voss because I thought it was a lore object:eek: Running around on Alderaan lvl'ing up my Powertech(after I had been running around the planet the day before on my lvl 50 WH Merc because I wanted to get some commendations to buy something), see a lvl 50 Pub beating on a lowbie, and I jumped in the fight and was thinking "How is he resisting my shots?" then he stomps me LOL Name a world boss that's summoned by a clicky, and I've clicked it thinking it was a lore object. Trapjaw, NP, that one on Empire Taris... Done them all. I click everything. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ProxyKalevra Posted September 27, 2012 Share Posted September 27, 2012 Name a world boss that's summoned by a clicky, and I've clicked it thinking it was a lore object. Trapjaw, NP, that one on Empire Taris... Done them all. I click everything. the only *** noob moment i have had tbh was i did click the taris because it was clicky and i was curious back in like beta... but i have played so many mmo's as soon as i saw what happened i outran the boss and lived with like 10% hp..... probably would have been quicker to just die but i hate to die to pve stuff.... a lot... makes me feel like a failure... tho there have been a few re spawn bugs that got me while leveling unless i am playing a paper tiger class like a sith sorc i rarely if ever die i think my latest char is gona die a lot more before hitting 50 tho because i have started to actually explore things i know have no purpose... somewhat rare of me to decide to do that so late in my game play...

AlienEyeTX Posted September 27, 2012 Share Posted September 27, 2012 Epic Fail... Didn't really read anything before playing and just jumped in. I didn't know about the option to repair armor (until probably near lvl 10), so wasted lots of creds buying new armor while suffering the long string of noob deaths. *sigh* Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WhillB Posted September 27, 2012 Share Posted September 27, 2012 Just 2 seconds ago. Have lvl 49, 34, 20 and 18 toons and just found out you can have a companion craft a string of items. Instead of clicking craft every minute. lol. To be fair, I only just started paying more attention to crafting ;p Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
