Why all the complaints about the price of legacy unlocks?

These dailies are from the fleet? And how long do they take please? I need money

The items are in their for end game players who have a lot of cash to burn.... Just doing dailies to get the mods I needed to start Operations I made over 4 million in credits... without even trying... So money is rather easy to come by.... As for the usefulness of items thats going to vary for each person....

A lot of the reasons people are broke is because they grind out all their crafting/mission skills for all their alts which eats up a ton of money.... try skipping that and you'll have lots of cash to burn on legacy items... Also Bioware has already stated this is only the 1st part of the legacy system as they didn't have time to put in everything they wanted on the first go round.... we should be seeing more legacy stuff in the next patch or two...

And btw, I'm pretty sure everyone knew that the legacy stuff was nothing more then fluff items.... If you thought they were going to give you an advantage in the game you were deceiving yourself....

You also forgot that in order to do all this without spending credits, you would then have to delete your level 50 characters and make brand-spanking-new characters of the race / class combos you wanted from the start. On the same server, to boot, so you can't just say "I'll get this guy to 50, unlock it account-wide, then make a new guy on a more active server since this one's dead."

9 races total, 8 character slots. One class you WILL have to pay for. Also, that insane amount of work, just so you can start over with a Miralukan Warrior, or a Cyborg Jedi?

Personally, I'm of the mindset where, Legacy levels 1-4 you get nothing of value beyond XP. 5+, you get one "point" per Legacy level, like a stat point. It costs X points to unlock Bonus Y, in addition to the required Legacy levels, OR Legacy Level X and credits, OR meeting Criteria Z. You play a lot, you might end up spending credits on the GTN terminal, spend points on unlocking your races, etc.

At 50 you do the bonus series on Ilum and Besalvis, that opens up the dailies you can do each day.... Also with 1.2 Corellia now has its own set of dailies... Each mission ranges from 7k-10k credits and it only takes like 5-8 mins to do each mission... Plus the Heroic Dailies give you high end Mod items which you can easily sell for 30k-40k each on the GTN or you can use them to get your armor ready for doing Story mode Operations or Hard Mode Flashpoints...

I can see value in several of the items...

I'm gonna spring for the million dollar shipdroids with interchangeable crit-bonus augments. ...a few of the "coming soon" features also have me interested. Granted, a few of the existing ones (like reducing an 18hr cooldown by 3 hours) are downright laughable almost to the point of insulting.

The mailbox on ship, maybe the GTN one day, portable mailbox, field re-spec... I see value in these.

What else am I gonna spend it on? I guess I could horde it all for that exclusive $10.0M super-sparkle-rainbow-saber-crystal that might show up for a limited time... and then not buy it anyway in preference to complaining about it costing too much.

Add up how many days there are in a year and report back.

Legacy is supposed to be a long term part of the game. Not something you got all the stuff for the day 1.2 launched so that you could then post the following day about lack of content.

Thanks, I'll try it out. Once I got to 50 I started alts.

What? Do you know meaning of the word choose? If something is 100 mil that I do want than Im complaining about the price, not about it being useless. Thats 1 thing. So that would be a choice in terms of complaining.

Working towards something does not equal labor. You work towards the boss of a flashpoint whilst doing the FP, no?


I do see how things can be overpriced and useless but I dont see how making a feature cheaper would make the feature itself less useless. Making it cheaper makes legacy more desirable for some people but less so for others. Legacy for me is a reason to go back to my level 50 which I am thankful for.

The high credit cost of the unlocks essentially makes the legacy levels pointless. Now, if it was a choice between unlocking something by getting a certain legacy level, or paying a ton of credits to do so sooner, then it would make sense.

Nothing else to complain about?
