Seriously people, obtaining credits in this game is ridiculously easy, can make a million in a matter of hours, and who the hell says you've to get everything immediately, finally, something that will take some time to complete, kudos BW, kudos.
Agreed. Play smart and any of this can be had without much trouble.

Regarding the Priority Transport to the Black Hole: Do the design/dev teams really think it's a "perk" to allow players to skip the unnecessary loading of Corellia? That's not just an in-game QOL perk, it's a real life QOL issue - there is no valid reason for an end game player to have to load a world just to allow them to load another world. The Priority Transport to the Black Hole ~should~ be an automatic unlock upon completing your first BH weekly or some similar metric.

Additionally, the Priority Transport Perks to the Black Hole, homeworld, and Outlaw's Den share a cooldown!?!? Really? How grindy are you trying to make the endgame? Are the Advancement (experience buff) Perks exclusive of one another? I would love to have someone from one of the teams explain the intent behind not allowing a player to use the PT Legacy Perks they unlocked & purchased with credits. I am convinced they should have separate cooldowns.

So your telling me that shelling out 3,380,000 credits per character can be done without much trouble.

hmm

8 characters x 3.38 million = 27,040,000 credits.

Are you serious?

Button? Who mentioned anything about a button? Out level, I have no problem with that, quests bore me, but I don't concern myself with fast levelling, it's good to have a couple of lvl 50's with ease, just glad to see that legacy won't come so easy to everyone as gear does in this game, well those that can't make and save money that is

Just to put that figure in perspective; if I was to run every daily, every day, until I had the money, it would take me over two months.

That's not factoring in repair costs, mod extraction costs, respec costs, etc.


For something coined as "legacy", why does it have absolutely nothing to do with the legacy system?

I'd be more than happy to pay those prices for server wide unlocks. But character only unlocks, what a ******* joke!

TBH, I suspect they are they prices due to the possibility that legacy perks will be obtainable through micro transactions. Anyway, you got time to make 8 lvl 50's you've got time to make the cash, and dailies are pennies compared to what you can make from GTN. So what if it takes you 2 months, this in an MMORPG, some games take you years to get to certain stages.

I love how you assume so much.

Such ignorance must be blissful.

I never said I had 8 lvl 50s. I never said I had the time to make 8 level 50s.


What you seem to be saying is this feature is only really fully usable by marketeers.

Well, that seems like a great reason to keep it the way it is. /sarcasm

Stop arguing for the sake of it, I used 8x50's figuratively as did you, yes it may be only fully attainable by certain people at first, but even if you had to get everything, you'll get there eventually, 2 months isn't long, for crying out loud stop crying because it isn't an insta-win.
