by the time I got enough centurion commendations for one piece of centurion gear, I had all Champion pieces except gloves, eventually the same will happen with battlemaster.




eh...



Starfox only goes so far





Here's where you insert Ohlen's quote regarding a group of heroes vs one big monster, "its not heroic guys"

I guess its either grind valor rank so I can RNG some battlemaster gear, and grind operations in the meantime.


CONGRATULATIONS!! You have finished the game. Due to your lack of desire and motivation you may now call it quits and stop all activity. Please return to watching reruns on TV and staring at that bowl of Cheetos on your lap. We note your logic in this post and it is apparent that this is your normal world view and you will likely fall into a coma due to severe personal boredom. Thank you for playing this game and doing everything humanly possible leaving absolutely nothing left to do.

Ok this is every MMO on the planet Earth.

With less raids, boring repeatables (the spacebar is annoying.) The content is buggy (especially 16 man.) None of these you have tried (ignorant post.) No mention of nightmare modes (way buggy and again, shows you are uniformed.) ... and dailies ... ok, 2 days and you are upgraded / modded.

A week of FPs BAM, near or at Full T2 (if you can get groups.) The FPs are also spacebar bore fests.

PvP / quests yadda yadda, you are stating opinion, and Hutball is not fun ... most agree (especially republic side,) and probably IMP side, especially on Imp dominated servers (imbalanced factions,) where most of those queues for them are in fact Huttball.

So yes,

Buggy raids and FPs

Annoying PVP

Boring dailies

Nothing worth crafting (even the alien datacard stuff is lackluster.)

Guess there are magenta crystals and datacrons. (66/67 cause of the buddy Illum) .. and the repub plus 10 ... but even then, annoyingly buggy and frustrating experience for the min/maxer.
Then quit. Don't bother us by complaining about a game you obviously don't find entertaining.

I just hit 50 about 2 weeks ago on my Bounty Hunter and do to my complete lack of MMO experience have only gotten in 2 Hard Mode Black Talon runs and 1 Hard Mode Boarding Party run in. I do agree with the people who say dailies are a find though. I like the fact that I have a challenge to get the 360 daily commendations needed for my Rakata earpiece and implants but the constant doing and redoing of quests is seriously getting on my nerves to the point where I just want to go spend 3 straight days leveling my Sith Inquisitor alt without logging into my Bounty Hunter at all.
Lagro level 60 Mercenary Sezzid level 60 Vanguard

I agree that there are somethings to do, But in a game where you pay to play every month, you don't really want to pay to just do the daily quests do you?

Yes there are high level FPs (HM) and Ops, but how can you really do them when the servers are ghost towns? there just is not one to play with.

And don't get me started on the legacy system, they said that they won't be allowing cross server. Which means you have to grind from start all over again. With the legacy system you are encouraged to play on the same server, which is fine, but BW will have to do something servers being empty.

I didn't read the comments but it's the ones done with everything you listed 10 times over is why most are bored.

You've been 50 a week. Most of us that are bored have been 50 since Late December/early January.

So, if you want to come back in April/May, you will feel the same way, although you will have 1.2 so you are going at a good pace.

I think WoW endgame is better in terms of what I have read so far but I will just see how it goes when I get there, I personally hate the QUEST part of MMO's and I can't wait until its all over and, Max level and no more questing.

WoW had good incentives to go and world raid the other faction this I can only tell so far has no such thing as invading the other Factions home turf, Sitting around talking in a game you actually PAY to play is pointless.

Repeating Content and quests is also pointless I won't be paying a monthly sub to repeat a bunch of stuff I have already repeated 100 times to get the best gear.

The only way to escape it is more content you simply cannot argue it. I also don't care if you know that this game is not a WoW clone its an MMO and in a PVP server I expect to be able to harass who ever I WANT WHEREVER I want and with as many people that want come.

I don't expect to see limited world availability depend on faction I am I wish to at max levels to be able to travel to any place I see fit. So far I just don't see this happening and that is what this game is missing for the those who complain about end game content with nothing to do but wait for an expansion that is the only reason they would stick around.

How is grinding dailies and redoing dungeons any different to what people are doing in WoW?

There was a very long period between WotLK and Cata, where people just grinded the same heroics, and that was in addition to the time they grinded them since the start of WotLK. And you couldn't choose the heroic in a random heroic for the 2 frost emblems, so you ended up doing the original heroics like utgarde keep for years. You've only been grinding in SW:TOR for, what, 3 months?

I just don't understand, why is grinding in SW:TOR under so much scrutiny, yet when WoW does it, it's ok? How come these people were never bored with grinding in WoW for years, but when they come to SW:TOR for 3 months, it is all of a sudden the biggest crime in MMO history?

Last night my guild completed EV, 8 man. It took about 3 hours and was good fun with some awesome content. After EV we cleared Hutt Hospitality, the other operation (raid.) It took less than 30 minutes to organize these and on normal mode they are no more difficult than a hard mode flash point. Overall, a very fun and interesting way to spend 3 hours on a Sunday evening with friends.

So let us be very clear here.

At 50 you can:

1: Run Flash Points.
2: Run Hard Mode Flash Points.
3: Do daily repeatable quests on Illum for gear upgrades or just for credits or just for (gasp) fun.
4: Do repeatable group quests on other planets, some of which have specific goals in mind, for instance, there is a planet where you can do daily group quests that reward orange level gear specifically for your companions.
5: Craft. Believe it or not, some people LOVe doing this and it is actually quite entertaining in this game.
6: PVP. It's pretty good here. Lots of reasons to do this, particularly with the coming ranking system. This will keep some people very busy for days on end.
7: Socialize. Yes, people do still like to just "hang out" and have fun shooting the breeze. Get in there and meet new people you anti-social gits!
8: Space Combat. Many people enjoy this very much.
9: Run normal mode, 8 man operations. Some good story here and very simple to organize and complete.
10: Run hard mode, 8 man operations. Again, easy to organize but a much steeper learning curve with gear rewards that reflect this.
11: Run 16 man normal operations. Harder to organize but much more epic in scale. If you have a big guild or a huge friends list or both, it's well worth the time to organize one of these and get it going.
12: Run 16 man operations on hard mode. Not for the feint of heart but just what the doctor ordered for others.

So there. Took me 5 minutes to think of 12 things you can do at 50. This list encompasses all player types and I dare you to find time to do all of these and still be bored.

I submit that if people are bored at 50, the problem lies in the person themselves and not with the content that has been provided.

It's like my dear old granny used to say. If you're bored, you're boring.
Guess you are not 50 yet, give it 2 weeks...
