Honest Question, what legacy perks have you bought?

Speeder Piloting at level 10. That's probably all I'll buy for a while. The legacy perks are too expensive to be terribly useful on brand new characters.

- I spent $149.95 on a video game with no release date, and all I got was the key to the executive washroom.

Same here. Apart from that, the only perk i might buy in a distant future is rocket boots. Nothing else on the list interests me at all.

I bought:
- Speeder Piloting 1 at Lvl 10 on my alts
- Class/WZ/FP experience boosts (Probably won't do this one on any future ones)
- Fast travel to Capital world on main + several alts
- Fast travel to BH on main
- Repair Droid and Mail Droid on main
- Speeder Piloting 3 at 40+ on my alts (lets you skip buying piloting 2 so ends up saving you cash)
- Field respec on main

I haven't brought any of the global unlocks yet but I'm tempted to get the Rocket Boots. I won't bother with ship repair droid since I can borrow my guildy's.

On a side note: I'd like to see Field and Ship Repair droids merged. Field repair is much more useful and cheaper. Same goes for the mail droid/ship mailbox.

Global: I've bought the quick travel and fleet pass cooldowns, both of which have been handy.

... and rocketboots, because WHEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Yes, it's silly. I love it!

Yeah yeah, I know - for that price I could have had a mailbox on my ship.

But WHEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! !

Characterwise, I've bought the level 10 speeder unlock for two of my alts. With my tell-a-friend speeder, it means I get level 3 speeder access nice and early.
Two blasters; no waiting!

I frequently buy Repair Droid and Speeder level 1 on my characters. Other than that, the only one I really use frequently is the ship mailbox global unlock. I love that ****. Allows me to do all my space mission dailies and just mail the credits where their needed without having to move more than ten feet. It's glorious. :P

I've seen a handful of people point out that they don't bother with the level 10 speeder, so I'd just like to point out the cost/benefit on this. If you buy the legacy perk, you don't have to buy the skill at your trainer. If memory serves, you're really only paying 5000 credits to get the speeder 15 levels early. It's very much worth it.

Otherwise, all I've bought are the timer reducers for QT. Might just be a personal thing, but I constantly found myself wanting to use it with 3 minutes left on cooldown, so that one appealed.

On my main I purchased the BH QT, DK QT, mail and repair droid.

On my other toons I purchased speeder at level 10. I DREAD leveling without a speeder at 10, that is way worth it to me. I would pay 10 times more for it, seriously. I buy the exploration EX buffs, all of them since they are cumulative, it only makes sense to buy them all to get the 10 percent buff at the end. I got the increase in comp affection through gifts, that ends up saving me money because typically as soon as i get a new comp I pretty much max out their affection.

The ship mailbox, kinda a waste of credits. The field one is way less and you can just use it on your ship if you need it.

I've thought about the rocket boosts, that would be kind of cool.

I dont get how people say these things are too much money. Credits are very easy to get in the game. I guess if i was one of those players that had to rely on dailies for income I'd feel the same way. It did take me a little while to figure out how to work the GTN. All of my subsequent toons have had financial backing from my first 50, so that a big plus.

I'm currently legacy level 33, I just wish there was more of an incentive to gaining legacy levels. There really isnt, and there should be.
