It is a new patch.. Why wouldn't you test something like that before moving all of the mods, armor and ench pieces? Guess common sense isn't common.

400K+ creds here too. Lame.

Seriously Bioware, you want us all to stay clones in PVP until we can grind out a whole other tier of gear? What a joke.

An appearance tab would've been better. How about armor dyes? EQ had that 10+ years ago.

I bought another BM head and gloves, to keep my 2 piece, living with the rest. I'm tired of looking like a homeless bum.

But thanks for your contribution.
Wow, that's not confusing at all.

So pre-1.2 BM gear is crap for customization, and post-1.2 BM gear is golden.

Wow. Crazy. How would most players know this?

One of the bonuses was to lower the recharge time on one of my powers. That time reflected in the tool tips after I changed. Had a ninja edit after your quote. It is posible that I only noticed the one that requires 2 slots and not 4 as I really did not care so much for the 4 slot bonus in my case and I only changed 2 pieces of gear.

After the other posts I am begining to think that is the case and now really want to get back to check. First I think Ill get this damn foot out of my mouth.
Dear BW,
Please nerf paper and buff rock. Scissors is fine as is.
Signed, Rock.

Here is one thing a lot of people are missing.

The players that post and lurk on the forums are the most informed players. Even we, as the most informed players around, keep getting information wrong. Ok, that is our fault for not reading everything.

BUT, the majority of the players never see these forums. These players are running around with, at most, just the patch notes to go by. Those poor suckers are at the true disadvantage.

Bioware really needs to get their act together and start writing better patch notes and opening up a clear line of communication for the players that do not live on the forums like many of us posters do.

In game warnings, in game splash screen tips, etc. Major issues should always be communicated clearly for players on the web site and in game.

I'm not faulting you for the confusion, man. This is BW's fault for their poor communication.

How are we supposed to plan our goals without accurate info?

What i see is someone who randomly.removed mods thinking it would work. The same place that said mods would carry over to gear for the new set is the same place that said the old set bonuses are still tied to the shell. Your mistake.

C'mon how about a "WARNING, SET BONUSES WILL NOT CARRY OVER" before I pay a huge sum to pull out my mods?

Oh well.

And hey what about a "WARNING, This is worthless!" warning before you buy that 5million credit ship auction house thing. My guild master got burned thinking it was a normal auction house. It was not.

Bioware if you read this, put in a toggle. Let the ship AH be either a normal, or a black market auction house. Problem solved.
How about you learn how to read before you start writing. This was talked over for a MONTH both here and on PTS as well as in Developer Blog
