Being a Mobile Security Key user I enjoy the extra layer of security it adds to my account. However, entering it each time from the same machine gets a bit redundant. Are there plans to add a feature in 1.3 where you do not need to enter it each time? Perhaps much like World of Warcraft when it detects any change in log on location, over xyz period of time, or at random.

I was wondering if we could expect to see an "auto attack" feature replace the current standerd attack for all the classes. I know for me and just about everyone i talk to when it comes to combat we are all getting finger sore from pressing 1 or alt. the mouse button (for example) over and over during the fight to simple just make our character attack with the standerd attack. This is a significant pain for the healing standerd making it almost completly worthless.

many players have been asking about it and im one of them: will we be able to choose the style of light saber we use in 1.3 or any time in the near future?

When are we going to see a fix for the issue of some versions of the Windows and their DEP closing TOR for attempting to illegally use memory?

Tier three tech support mentioned a supposed fix back in the patch on the 1st of May but this issue continues with no information being given out to the affected players. Claims posted on the forums that this has been fixed are dead wrong as my computer can prove.

It was stated in an earlier Q&A that items with a lower crafting difficulty had a higher chance for a companion to crit when making them. My question is, is this the same for skills like Underworld Trading and Investigation, is it easier to get an artifact grade material from these missions if I send a companion on the easier, lower yield, missions(moderate/abundant as opposed to bountiful/rich)?

I recall that we were going to get the ability to toggle hoods and helm on both our character and our force-using companions in 1.2. Are we still going to get this? My juggernaut's gear sets all have a hood on the back of the chest that is down by default even with the helm hidden. I'd like to be able to use the hood on those, as well as my inquisitor's hood and mask at the same time. Also, will Twi'leks ever be able to use a hood? Maybe with the lekku going down the chest?

Yes, could you explain the design goals behind this? The Legacy perks that ultimately made it into the game are not so much unlocked BY your legacy as FOR your legacy with credits.This doesn't feel like it matches BioWare Legacy hype.

While there are admittedly some perks included that are convenience features for well-heeled endgame players, most of the benefits are for alts. So why aren't there alternate unlocking mechanisms such as "Requires Legacy Level 5 and $500,000 OR Legacy Level 20"?

So We have Sith corruption and its super cool to see your character change to the dark side. but nothing for light side ranks. SO this is what i was thinking ..check this out. how about the more light side you become your character gives off a glow. the higher the light side rank the brighter the glow. HUH , YEAH ?
What bout it?
