I have to agree. I haven't purchased a single Legacy unlock because they all seem pretty pointless to me. Certainly not worth the amount they are expecting for them.

Perhaps not by you, but I will. I miss every player that has left. If you enjoy this game, I suggest you stop wishing people with varied opinions to just leave...because that's what they've been doing and that's what lead to the recent server mergers.

I purchased the early speeder for my level 15 alt. That perk is totally worth it (you get the training as part of your purchase, so you are essentially paying 5k credits for a speeder up to 15 levels early.)

This. It's more than 1/3 the cost. I do, however, feel the XP bonuses and the costs are not well matched...it's too small a bonus for too high a cost. They either need to lower the cost or bump the bonus.

Please stop complaining and get back to performing dailies on your alts. While you're at it, continue paying a monthly sub fee to repeat this content over and over. It worked in WoW dang it! Now get off the forums and go repeat dailies!

They did explain all of this, a long time ago! There is even a write up about on the offical site. The menus even say they are character baised. This info was posted on this site, there facebook page, twitter and not to mention tons of fan sites like darthhater.com and what not.

This is be no means a suprise and the info is everywhere.

The OP is right.

However, I believe it should be renamed.

This update should be renamed, Character Perks, as it has nothing to do with
the Legacy system, of trickle down bonuses to alts.

They tie it to Legacy, but it costs you lots of money, and
upgraded versions, do require Legacy 25.

If you play alot, legacy 25 isn't hard, but if your a working class joe, this will be a problem.
After 6 months, of playing, i just got legacy 20, and i play about 2 to 4 hours a day averaged.

I like at least having the option, but you should have told people, in the game,that buying anything,
from this new stuff, is only on that character, with a popup warning. I wasted 40k on the speeder gain at level 10
on my level 50 main, thinking it would toggle that for all my alts. Luckily, i switched to alts, to check,
before buying next upgrade. The utility options like email and repair bots, should be true legacy
items, as they would be nice to have on alts, without the money sinks.

I know the players that are on all the time, have no problems with cash, but most of the rest of us, DO.
We don't need more money sinks, give us options, like this update. If your going to call something,
Legacy, then use the concept of legacy, and not another money sink.

This. ALL of this. With a fiery passion. I, too, spent money on the speeder option on my lvl 50, simply because I assumed anything tied to Legacy would benefit my actual LEGACY. Also, my main is the only one with that kind of money just laying around.

Bioware borked this one, regardless of what others say. Yes, it lists it plain as day, and yes we should have read more carefully, but it's not out-there for us to have assumed this stuff would be Legacy-bound.

Also, side-note, not everyone who plays these games reads every blog post and hounds for every scrap of information. Some people just wait and accept it when it comes.

The entire legacy system is a complete joke because of this. My continued subscription and continued game play should be payment enough. Period.

It is by no means FREE to get to legacy level 15 or 20 and it certainly doesn't happen over night. They need to reduce the costs by 95% or more. Period, end of story.

Respec costs are insane
Mod removal prices are insane
Gear repair prices are insane

How many credit sinks can there be in this game? It's way past the point of being un-fun...
