Welcome to Game Update 1.7: Return of the Gree

I'm confused.

I am currently at Ilum and I see the Gree vendors. I can't buy their stuff unless I become their friend.

I don't however see any mission givers other than a PvP terminal and a transporter that beams me into insta death?

Where are the mission givers/ how do we get PvE missions for this event?

You need to look at that "PvP terminal" again...

Ah found the Dailys.

Too hard for my level 45 Sith Warrior.

Back to normal missions.

Thanks for the info thou.

So far this patch has yet to add anything I like. Reputation was one of my lest favorite things about wow. If you're going to take a page out of their book, pick a good one. Not only that, but my repair costs have increased more than 10 fold without my monetary intake increasing at a valid pace to keep up with the new costs. Not everybody wants to grind dailies, that is what got me to leave wow. Now it seems like this game is forcing me to do them as well.

I may be new to the forums, but this comes off only as whining to me. I hate players like you. Opinions are like a-holes, and everyone's got one...sorry just my opinion

so with this update there was a change to the GTN... we can no longer us only 2 characters in a search.... example... Might Hilt ... if i search that i find all might hilts.... here is the kicker.. if i want a specific might hilt say ... 11.... i search might hilt 11 BUT the search button is now greyed out BECAUSE i use 2 characters in the search instead of 3... the 11 part kills the search.... so here is my question... WHEN THE F*** are you gonna get your heads out ya arses and stop making player conveniences that are NOT convenient ?

I don't like the gree event, it makes me question my desire to play a game that brings out content that is the opposite of fun. All of the dailies feel like a punishment. I will say having the reputation be on legacy was nice.

I've read a lot of the comments, some points I agree with some not. My view is I like it, took a while to get on the first rung of the progression ladder but once you do it's fine, yes areas are busy with a time limit they will be the first weeks of Black hole where the same, containers was a swearword; but it calmed down spawn rates where sped up etc. Unfortunately for most the two weeks will be harsh without forming groups together and _learning_ what mobs you actually need etc. I'm now on the ops part of the progression and it's a lot more fun than the first rung.

The only bugs for me are QT not working, the problems with getting cluster ganked etc are not really biowares' fault; people _choose_ how to behave.

So, I've played the gree area twice now, and here's my 2 cents.
-it is insanely laggy, there always seem to be 12 instances running
-finding groups in the same instance is impossible. When I did find a group, we couldn't transfer to the same instance because they seemed to be full by the time half of us switched
-the PVP area of the questline was crammed full of imps with 21k+ hp, so I didn't even bother trying to figure out what I was supposed to do for it...
-the gree gear requires such a huge reputation, that the reputation that I earned from doing the non pvp and non-group quests would take me at least a few days to get one piece, and about 5 weeks to get the legendary title... which is kinda pointless, as this event may only be running for a week.

as for the cartel market updates, I found it frustrating that they took a lot of the same gear they had from the last pack and used it again. My spymaster gear used to look like the Classic stuff they now sell. So, I paid for the old spymaster stuff, they changed it, and now I must pay again for the same gear... how do I know that it's not going to change again too?

i love pvp, and what you have made with the massive improved illium which to me looks more like you stuck a few pylons up and few bunch of npcs and quests and called that a revamp but its not a pvp event its either a PVE area now with no one actuaklly fighting since theres no reason to do so or its a gankers heaven forceing pve questers into pvp areas.

I was looking forward to this revamp of pvp area more than any updates bioware have promished and never been so disappointed by bioware than what they done with illium revamp.

on our server theres no real fighting, people quee up in turn to deleiver orbs, theres no reward for killing people, i hate pve now so i dont like pve quests kill mob A and take object B to destenation C. hate it and u have made the open world pvp area that now. who ever came up with the illium revamp obviously knows nothing of research, pvp and the community.

a few pylons on illium does not make it a revamped section of the game.

for the love of god please look at other MMO's appraoch to open world pvp, the best being Age of Conan sieges and take these best bits and make it releivant for star wars and i guarentee you many more will join and return to star wars.
