petition for the ewok to be buyable via CC

the QQ is strong with this one.

Haha, in what way does one win the game if they have this Treek as their companion xD

Exactly!

from what ive heard, is that treek comes with level 10 mods. she has a Tank stance OR a healer stance. its not like each class doesnt get a companion that can heal, tank, or do damage. i dont see what the big deal is.

not having her will not affect your gameplay whatsoever

Yep, haters are going to hate because they are new to the game and HAVE NOT reached at least level 40. Is it that hard? LOL... Those who are in favor to have Ewok purchasable on the CM are the ONES that are new and DOESNT HAVE legacy level 40.. too bad it's not our fault. How about play more and invest some time... or yet, subscriber for more than a year.

Oh trust me, ask those veteran players on the game itself and see what they think about the Ewok being purchasable on the CM. Sure, they're not in the forums but you will see that they are against to it.

So it's really up to Bioware. AT least still put the legacy requirement. It will make the new players to PLAY MORE and have something to achieve. The more time they spend, the more $ they will put in as they will remain a subscriber.

Exactly! Bads will be bads.

FFS so many people don't know what pay 2 win means.

PAY 2 WIN = A combat advantage over OTHER PLAYERS. It has nothing to do with bypassing content or making things easy.

This is still a bad idea though. There's no point in playing an MMO where the rewards are available for real life cash. It needs to still have a legacy requirement even if you spend CC to buy it.

No reason that couldn't be due to linguistics programming. There are many dead languages throughout history, and then those invented. There never has to have been contact with an audible language to be able to ascertain it's meaning. Droid programs would just make the process a lot easier, thus 3PO being able to chat to Ewoks.

As far as cannon goes, it's still a few thousand years until Ewoks are discovered.

As for the OP's question, I'd much rather not see this being purchased via CC. 1M credits is not difficult to earn through dailies. The less emphasis I see on the CM, and some value for subscribers, the better.

The only reason I've reached legacy level 40 is because I have fun playing this game. It came naturally. If I didn't enjoy it, I wouldn't have worked so hard on my toons. The toons I've taken to 55, the class storylines I've experienced, the raids I've completed with my guild, the medals and valor I've earned in WZs - these are my achievements I've worked towards and am proud of. So I don't feel I am entitled to a pat on the back from BW because I find the game content itself rewarding. If you don't and if your only incentive to gain legacy lvl 40 is access to some exclusive items, then the game becomes a grind and isn't worth playing.

This thread has gone off the rails of the discussion and turned into throwing insults to one another and elitist ideolist forcing their beliefs on to others. So lets put some things in its proper perspective.

1. No where in Eric Musco's post did he say players can bypass the legacy requirement to unlock treek (granted it didn't say they couldn't either)

2. Even if a player could bypass the legacy requirement. It's still not Pay 2 Win. Treek is a purely cosmetic companion that is not needed to level or advance your character.

Having said all of this. I believe it will be a terrible mistake if Bioware allowed cartel coins to bypass the legacy level 40 requirement. While it may not be pay to win, it does leave a bitter taste in the mouth of Subscribers, who are suppose to get the premium deal out of the game. I am not saying take it out of the cartel market, I have no issues of it being there, as long as the legacy level 40 requirement remains there. Simply due to the fact that I believe that it is a bad idea to have those who pay a subscription every month to have to work harder to achieve an reward in game than a person who just drops $5-$10 on the CM.

So Eric, who I like to call "The Musco!!" , I think it would quell a lot of the dread on this thread if we can get a confirmation that purchasing Treek from the CM will still require a legacy level 40 or not.

actually this is incorrect. If you read The Old Republic Book "Red Harvest" The Republic have a base on Endor
