Actually my companions will be busy harvesting while I'm in a flashpoint, an opation, a warzone, or maybe while I'm doing the new heroic stuff.

Until Yavin was introduced, harvesting on maps was the biggest waste of time. If credits are an issue for you, stop wasting time on harvesting maps and do activities that make credits.

EA also thinks according to their "metrics" pvp is balanced and mercs, snipers, etc. should be just fine in ranked play. You going to believe everything EA tells you? They really have very little clue about their game you know

Hmm lets see Grade 17-24 bioanalysis mission, aha costs 400cred per run. Hmm Lets see Taris is lvl equelevant, pull big packs of raghoul, loot 200crediz... Wait you can make money AND harvest nodes at the same time?? Sir you just found a profitable way of getting anew crew skill learned!! amazing!

This was a simple part of their announcements. Nothing to do with metrics or interpretations thereof. People seem to believe that level sync is coming...are you saying it isn't coming? Because BW said it...so it must be a lie right? Oh wait, are you saying also that the 4.0 patch is not really planned for tomorrow?

The beaches are usually safe. It's wading past your ankles that is very, very dangerous
My name is Milind. I checked it again and can confirm you there is no bug with any companion in the game.

If you don't think they've made incredibly bad decisions since launch which has led to player numbers decline every year then by all means stay on that bandwagon.

Are you truly this thick?

I have complained about various things throughout the history of this game. Just because I happen to accept the things they've told us about this patch, doesn't remotely mean that I just believe everything they say.

Go back in my post history and you will find some periods where I was pretty ticked at BW.

But you are just being totally paranoid, because why do you believe one thing they said and not another?

Explain why you believe level sync is coming but not that you get more from a single node as your crew skill goes up...they are both things they said.

So what's the frikkin difference huh?

My 58-60s have no current problem with slaugtering vast quantities of whatever on Y4 and collecting vast quantities of mats. I don't think I've ever brought a high level character to a lower level area just to gather or to work a skill and I have every gathering/crafting skill maxxed at least a couple times over. There are valid arguments vs syncing but I would argue this isn't one.

Eric even explained it very clearly on the Sept. 30th live stream. If your rank is 500/500 and you go to DK and farm a node you will get more mats then if you were a 1/500 and farmed the same node.
