Official Q&A Thread for February 10th, 2012 Q&A Blog Post

Currently end game is pretty boring and quite similar to any other MMO out there - a grind fest.

How will you change this in the near future? (Not a year from now but hopefully in next few months).

Do you have plans to bring back all the social armor that was in beta that was removed right before launch? Heavy/Medium/ and all the other light armor options that were all so wonderful and now are all sooo..not here.

Concerning the upcoming changes to orange gear crafting. You mentioned that orange gear recipes could crit in the future, is it correct to assume this would mean they would gain an augment slot?
If so, we would now be forced to wear all orange critted gear instead of raid gear now, which is hardly an improvement over the current situation. Some clarification would be appreciated.

Currently, in PvP, there is almost 100% uptime for snares, which gives ranged classes a big advantage over melee classes, especially since you've decided that Roots/Snares don't count as CC for the resolve meter. Can we expect to see anything in the future to help deal with the snare spamming in PvP?

The bug with warzone wins not being counted for quest progress has been with us for a long time now. This bug had untruthfully been reported as 'fixed' in the latest patch notes. This has done a lot of damage to your credibility.

What is being done to insure these kind of mistakes don't happen again, and, more importantly, how can such a trivial matter take so long to resolve?

Do you have any plans that will happen soonish regarding server mergers / allowing us to move servers?

Thanks.

When chest color match will be back in the game?

Are there plans to allow players to add other accounts to their friends list, as opposed to the single character currently, so you would be able to see if they were online playing an alternative character? As it is it can be hard to keep track of whether or not someone is available that you may want to play with.

One possible solution would be allowing you to like the legacy name, so you could see whenever that legacy name is online, regardless of the character. Even if you wanted to keep the Empire / Republic barrier up, just being able to see that I have friends online on a opposing faction character would be a great addition.

Social gear
Will Medium / Heavy social armor be put (back) into game?
(or other methods of customizing one's armor - color, look...)
Thank you for a great game!

What features will you add to make flashpoints/heroic quests more available while leveling/in endgame?
The current lfg tool does not work well enough to get one into group-content quickly enough.
