It's not. Yet, they "corrected" the same thing in regards to Ilum and "lowbies" with the x2 XP (so much in fact that it effected legit level players trying to quest AT level for the planet). I don't care. I could not care less if someone decided to power level 1-50 (much less 50-55). However, the fact remains - they messed up Ilum in response to the "power leveling" (READ-- THEY changed it). So, to me, in all fairness they should insure that level 50's can't "game" the system in the same manner - unintended, Unless of course, some double standard is applied. Have they made an announcement? I'm sure that through their "QA" it wasn't even mentioned... else they would have made an announcement at this stage .. the 9th is right around the corner. But, as far as I'm concerned in the scheme of things.. read above this. Ok, gotta drop down into your post first of all .. are you so ret ard ed that you didn't nderstand what I wrote? Where in that do you get anything that could even suggest "control freak"??? And to back up a sec ... ahh.. nevermind... You know what princess .. you got to the 9th.. get em done.. turn em in. =) But.. to wrap it all up.. in regards to your "ps" ... go look for the ilum double xp posts and see (new to the forums?? Didn't see those posts?? Ok). You will find many folks that somehow got sand in their vag over it... I'm simply making the claim that this is the same thing. * for tat. I personally don't care if you had some back woods 2 cents an hour reject power level you .. I could not care less if you frequent "gold/credit" sellers ... I do .. not .. care ... what I am saying and bringing to light is what EA/SWTOR did to the folks levelng during doulbe XP on Ilum. If THAT was not intended .. then SURELY (and I'll stop calling you Shirley) this should be considered "not intended". But this will take place during EARLY ACCESS. Which in turn means they wil get a much larger jump in leveling vs those without early access. Which in turn means that they will have skill points in place, among other things, .. ahh missing ? nothing. nevermind. you're fine. go eat your paste. I don't care how fast they level either.. I didn't care how fast folks leveled on Ilum with the double xp ... but some did and EA/SWTOR responded --- it wasn't intended. So, with that, how is this? Ah nevermind. Nevermind... jeez... Neve.. wait .. we are not .. at least I am not (and in MMO world) if YOU are thinking about the casuals taking 9 hrs.. you sir are ignorant. This is not about the casual. This is about the supposed and sadly classified "hardcore" (oh g od dam m .. I hit buttons HARD!!) crowd. You know the ones.. any advantage possible. You know the ones.. "first!".. you know the ones... And at any rate ... did you actually read what I wrote before you ta rd ed out with this reply? I could not care less about your game play or what you think or how you view the game. Sigh .. go back.. slowly this time and read. Then go read (look em up.. maybe have someone read it to you) the fallout from the ilum double xp situation. THIS is what I am talking about and THIS is what I EXPLAINED in the op. I am sorry you are an idiot (report me?! God forbid.. you are implying something about me that isn't very nice.. sniff sniff.. <cries>). ---- At the end of the day -- I could not care any less on how any of you level, what you do your life, how you view things or think. At the end of the day -- THIS is about how they handled leveling on Ilum (how THEY handled it) during double xp. THEY messed folks up in that mess. I just want to make sure there is no double standard in messing folks up with THIS loophole. That is all. Nothing more. Nothing less. At any rate.. got the thread started, y'all have fun with it. I will monitor it to see how it goes. Other than that... pfhh. Aww, games people play.. Easy to tell because you locked onto the Ilum thing in every defense.. http://www.heretical.com/berne/nigysob.html Life Game 4: Now I've Got You, You Son of a *** This can be seen in classic form in poker games. White gets an unbeatable hand, such as four aces. At this point, if he is a NIGYSOB player, he is more interested in the fact that Black is completely at his mercy than he is in good poker or making money. White needed some plumbing fixtures installed, and he reviewed the costs very carefully with the plumber before giving him a go-ahead. The price was set, and it was agreed that there would be no extras. When the plumber submitted his bill, he included a few dollars extra for an unexpected valve that had to be installed � about four dollars on a four-hundred-dollar job. White became infuriated, called the plumber on the phone and demanded an explanation. The plumber would not back down. White wrote him a long letter criticizing his integrity and ethics and refused to pay the bill until the extra charge was withdrawn. The plumber finally gave in. It soon became obvious that both White and the plumber were playing games. In the course of their negotiations, they had recognized each other's potentials. The plumber made his provocative move when he submitted his bill. Since White had the plumber's word, the plumber was clearly in the wrong. White now felt justified in venting almost unlimited rage against him. Instead of merely negotiating in a dignified way that befitted the Adult standards he set for himself, perhaps with a little innocent annoyance, White took the opportunity to make extensive criticisms of the plumber's whole way of living... White was exploiting his trivial but socially defensible objection (position) to vent the pent-up furies of many years of his cozening opponent, just as his mother might have done in a similar situation. He quickly recognized his underlying attitude (NIGYSOB) and realized how secretly delighted he had been at the plumber's provocation. He then recalled that ever since early childhood he had looked for similar injustices, received them with delight and exploited them with the same vigour. In many of the cases he recounted, he had forgotten the actual provocation, but remembered in great detail the course of the ensuing battle. The plumber, apparently, was playing some variation of 'Why Does This Always Happen to Me?' (WAHM).

This isn't an "exploit". Not even close. If someone has done the content, they should be able to turn the missions in and get the XP (and other rewards) from them. How is wiping their XP from those missions in any way fair? Although, an interesting question does arise....if I turn in a mission on the 9th that would have returned Columi/BH/Daily comms on the 8th, will it reward classic comms instead? Or will it just bug out?

All this XP is killing me, we are still suffering from Double XP weekends on Flashpoints... the amount of new Tanks who have NO idea what their supposed to be doing is staggering. They seem to think their indestructable and an almighty DPS rolled into one with no thought to CC's or gameplay. As a Healer sometimes I keep these Tanks on short leases by only healing them to keep them at around 25-40% HP Either they take a min after battles to let me regain stamina or do CC's on next group or they die. Random rant over.

mountain out of mole hill. So someone can gain an hour or 2 of time over someone else... I can just as easily go do those same dailies on the patch day, and be at the exact same place... only difference is the time. It isn't an issue.

You realize there will be people who hit 55 before ROTHC becomes available to everyone else, regardless of if they stock up on 25 quests or not ahead of time... Early Access is intended to give players a jump.

I've read through this and there's one part that I'm still looking for some information about: Why do I care? Seriously. Why do I care if someone levels to 51 before me? How is it different from someone logging in at 6am and playing the game for 12 hours longer than I do? How is this different from the loads of people who will be finished with Makeb long before the Early Access is over (and therefore, progressed beyond everyone who didn't get Early Access)? What advantage do they get? First chance to sell items on the GTN? The glory of sitting in the queue for Lvl55 Ops since no one else is there yet? What? What do they get that I don't? What harm is done to me, or what do I lose that they gain? Why do I care?

/not signed I have done this every expansion in every game I have played. You gain a quarter to a half a level at most. It is definitely not an exploit.
Unsubscribed due to no new Operations. I am happy that there will be a renewed focus on story, I love story, its why I picked this MMO. But I picked an MMO, not an episodic single player RPG that I have to pay a subscription to receive the episodes.

Bottom line OP, you really don't understand what was going on Illum with regard to xp and power leveling in the first place. So... better check your diaper. I think it is time for a change. Bored. So checking in and bingo. Well as long as you have your preferred taste in paste... happy for you. Enjoy. Now as for Ilum ... nope, no effect on me. I hit Ilum with my 50's to get enough rep and coins to buy my blue eyeball. Got it and done. Haven't been back since. Won't be back. Now.. as far as bolster goes .. what difference did it make to ANYONE... how ANYONE else leveled? None, correct? Yet, there was an outcry and the devs stepped in and said "unintended". THE DEVS said it. I can't slow this down for you.. so maybe have someone read it to you slowly. The .. same .. mechanic .. applies .. to makeb .. for early .. access ... t it for tat. Gaming xp for levels on ilum during double xp ... applies to gaming levels for ealry access. look, I do NOT care how anyone levels... I do NOT care if anyone buys credits ... and to be honest I don't care how they treat this -- I just thought I'd make a vocal outcry concerning it. That's it. Nothing more. Nothing less. They messed with the double xp in regards to Ilum ... the SAME positional is in place for early access makeb. Fix it like they did with the other. fair? i think so.
Just a FYI -- I will more than likely not respond back to the message this is attached to. Because, quite frankly, I said what I had to say and I really don't care beyond that. Have a nice day .. =)

I see you have some change to your tone, i am glad you have learned a lesson or two However, if the lvl 50 daily give any exp, it's intended because otherwise what's the point ? If not, then you have nothing to cry about. It's also fair that people get reward for their work, regardless of early access or not. If you don't have early access, a lot of us will be already level 55 when you get on Makeb anyway ( ) so you can just move on. Anyway it's a lot different than in Ilum, for Ilum it's borderline power level and that's what Bioware don't want, this case is not.

If you insist on trolling at least come up with a better logical rationale for your premise.
