There is a group on my server that will run you through it in under 5 minutes for 100k. They advertise on Fleet and Belsavis on the weekends.

The MGGS can be a serious pain so I'm reluctant to judge... and 100k isn't much considering how few money-sinks there are right now.

The stat boost is so small it's not even noticeable. Endurance might be but still not that much. You only get like 2-3 for all 3 stats you can technically use per planet. And by technically I mean an Agent can get Aim and Cunning to boost damage

I think the better argument is that the blue matrix shard found here is a big deal for classes that want to assemble the relatively powerful +AIM Matrix Cube artifiact (58 Aim, 50 End, 24 Crit).

Again... it's not a game breaker or anything but it's much more signficant than a simple +2-4 to one stat.

Just kind of wanted to know what others thought about it.
Myself (Jedi Guardian) and a empire player he was a sorc had this happen to us. I just use forcepush to push him up onto one of the angle parts on the back of the sandcrawler. He mounted up and stood in front of me and jumped up and down. If you time the forcepush just right when he was at the highest point when jumping up on his mount it pushed him at a high angle towards the sandcrawler and I just force leaped to him. Took about 5 mins of trying, wasn't to hard.

I refuse to do those datacrons. I play to play, not stand around for 1.5+ hours. How is that fun for anyone ever?
Brushing off the dust on my Assault Cannon. Time to get back in the fight.

The jawa balloon ride is actually something I enjoy. I have time to do all my AFK stuff - use the bathroom, have a smoke, make some coffee, file my taxes...

This.

Not really optional if you are trying to min-max for end game content.

So there were 5 Pubs waiting for balloon and here I am a lonely Imp sin stealthed at bottom of sandcrawler. Balloon shows up and pubs get on, I run up jump in and Overcharge(think thats ability name), and boom all 5 get knockback and blown out of balloon. I target 1 of em and /wave. IMHO that has been one of the most exciting and epic moments ingame for me. To the point I will have to go with yes I amhappy with the jawa balloon datacron
