This is a warning to you.

Don't Do It !!!!!!

Level increase and Skill tree removal in same update?

You are going to break TOR financially by doing this.
This will then cause the eventual downfall of TOR in
a very short time.

Level increase is painfull enough, but to change very
structure of the game at the same time is utter madness.

There is no point to Level increase except as a Business
to delay people, from being maxxed out on stats.

As for the ditching of a tried and true system, for a Next Gen
concept, is maybe not that bad, but to do it, at the same time
is exactly the kinda of thinking that crippled a previous Star Wars
MMORPG, Star Wars Galaxies, when it introduced the NGE.

Of course we all know how well that worked out.

BTW it was a TRAGIC failure

Releveling and regearing all my 55's doesn't
sound like fun, so I'll probably go FTP or quit.

I do not know what i will do, but i hate supporting stupidity financially.

Theres nothing painful about a level increase, but I am not all that pleased with the Disciplines idea myself.
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.

So don't buy the expansion and you won't have to. Stay at lvl 55 and play the game as you have been.

Do it Bioware. 55 is an uneven level.

I wish it had of been higher.


And if you read the Disciplines post in detail, you will pick up on the verbiage that indicated one reason they are doing this is so that level increases can be done on a more regular basis. So if this upsets you, you might as well quit now.

I recently re subbed for two months to level a couple more alts since I have some free time. I played from release until about 6 moths ago or so then went F2P (basically didn't play at all).

While GSH and GSF did nothing for me personally, the level increase and the skill tree changes may actually get me to sub for a few more months to see how it goes. I personally believe that the changes may well make re-balancing classes much easier and could possibly revitalize PvP.

To BW: go for it, make the change. The current system is boring and needs something new.

To OP: can I have your stuff?

Disagree with all your points. I glad that a n mmo is going to make a change from the traditional leveling tree. I haven't really liked stg skill tree to being with . the new discipline system looks great to me . Re arming is easy for me with my crafters I honestly can't see a downside to this and am looking forward to it.

*** had I known they are dumbing down the game again!
Well I guess goodbye SWTOR, hello 250k subs left by the end of the next year!

Seriously there is a reason people love skill tree and min maxing.
So what unbalanced powergain! It is a learning curve remove that *** fun is it to play more then a year pressing the same crappy 4-6 buttons!

I mean rather go play a Ipad/Iphone game with one big button you can tab continously.
Seriously internal or not, that new crap look like dumb down fail safe crappy system!
With limiting people into preset build up, instead of hybrid min maxing.

What is next reason why WoW bleeding people so fast? Well SWTOR lost, guess maybe wow returns to those skill tree it becomes popular again.
