60k repair bill!

That's great for you, however 2 flashpoint wipes on my 31 sniper (all orange/purple, fully augmented) now runs over 7k credits.

While a level 50 character can recover that easily through a few section X/black hole dailies, recovering those costs for a low level character is a much more significant issue.

3.5k/ wipe @ lvl 31.

That's closer to the pre-1.2 levels than I'd like.
Back in 2011 a death on Taris cost my level 36 10k.

If they decide to restore the old levels you'd be looking at 30k/wipe in Campaign gear and maybe something like 35k/wipe in Dread Guard. That would be insane.

Interesting that both sides of the argument remain the same.

I would also like to point out that both sides are equally valid.

On one side, we have the player who believe that a game is made to be played... a lot. Repeatably and working for something is what they like

On the other, we have the players who like to play for development... who like new and fun things. Having to sink hours into the same thing seems pointless.

The question is, why can't it be both? Those players who like doing the mundane tasks can still do these tasks as much as they like, regardless of how easy or cheap the "fun" activities are.
I am aware that some of you think that making the game harder makes it more fun, and somehow makes you feel more accomplished, but you can still achieve this in other ways

i don't pve much but i did notice after i afk'd on ilum or something and died once to some random mob.

my repair was almost 9k lol.

This has to be the most pathetic reason to cancel a sub LOL.!!

Are you kidding me?

One can expect to have those kind of bills learning an Op though, but running a FP? That is retarded, just sayin'.

Notice how the OP never says how many times they wiped. With a bill like that I'm thinking 7-8 wipes at the very very least. Outside of HM LI what flashpoint could they possibly wipe on 7-8 times? If they're trying to solo/2-man an HM FP then that I could understand, but nothing else.

If you only have 40-60 minutes of play time, what are you doing! It's not an OP that will take a few hours. Or are they doing one FP?
I'm not sure what these People are doing to be honest, but I see no difference with teaming up for a Heroic or a FP, they are both similar!

TBH at LVL 15 you were probably the cause of the wipes, 1k a wipe is quite cheap, you will easily make 1k from trash in Hammer Station.
So in your case I would wait until your the recomended lvl16-19 and do the FP. You hopefully learned a valuable lesson!
