Yes please. I was levelling an alt when the event started and wasn't able to have him start the quests when they first came out. Just a few days more?

After reading an article about TOR on PC Gamer, it sounds like they don't plan on "redoing" events, so if they don't extend the event, this is probably the last chance we will get to experience it.

"It’s important to BioWare that the Rakghoul plague is a one-off. “Events are, by their very nature, transient things that build a sense of history within the game” Erickson explains. “Later you’ll pull out your red rakling pet and say, ‘remember when the rakghoul plague hit.’”

At least a few more days....... I will be one piece short of armor (I started late because I didnt know what was going on until I turned green) and didn't know until tonight that there were a second set of missions for the level 50 players! There should have been an email or something in the patch notes about these events.

If you did not start the quest chain by Wed before the reset at the latest, there is no possible way to get the full set of armour. Unfortunately, there was nothing on the patcher about a world event, so unless you were on fleet (only time I ever go there is to hit the GTM) or on Tat, you likely did not hear about it until a few days in, and that was too late.

It's a shame they did not just have the missions in a progressive chain rather than only 1 step opening per day. Such a good event with cool rewards and items, but many ppl just did not get in early enough to see it all. Not to mention the extra down times for maint and the 1.2b and c patches, further limiting pre-weekend access. They should have made a big announcement about it before it started to let ppl know it was coming. Too bad they won't extend it. Seems a waste all we did just to be cut off a day or 2 before finishing everything. Who's going to wear 4/6 of a matching set costume with some completely unrelated chest piece?

Oh well.

The quest reward vendor should have been put next to the mission dropbox one for each faction. Impossible to buy anything on Veela Republic faction right now Sith have blockaded the vendor. Due to the population imbalance its not realistic to expect to dislodge them.

Haha I joined too late to enjoy it.

I hope to experience many more events in this amazing (other than the space combat) game.

At least leave vendor for a week or so.

The piece of crap imperials on my server have had 100 players sitting on the vendor for the past 6 hours making the massively imbalanced republic side impossible to exchange their dna tokens.

Awesome idea to only have one vendor, awesome.

LOL exactly what happened to me. I got a late start managed to get 4 of 6. the belt doesn't matter but not having the chest piece makes having everything else pointless. What screwed me was the additional day of maintenance due to the fact I can only play at night during the week.
