Starting at 60 gives you levl 500 crew skills that are "appropriate to the class" (Mercs get armormech, underworld training and scavenging)

 

Yavin companion legacy gear is no longer bound to companions (except for the weapon)

 

Musco clicks electro net

 

Ultimate and Elite comms(renamed) have a 500 cap and no longer have a weekly limit

30-45 minutes of spoiler gameplay if someone wants to avoid that starting about 15 minutes in.

Waiting for the spoiler part to be done.

Discuss!

So level scaling did get confirmed then?

 

Edit: I predict many bugs and hope they ajust the top levels for a couple of planets due to their bonus series being 30 and one 40s

Yes it did. You will be down scaled to the planets level. So you can help your friends.

Yes, it is not optional and it is everywhere.

Any word if they are going to adjust two worlds levels given their bonuses serials are rather high?

level 60 with maxed crafting skills for CC. Nice P2W here.

It's a free to play game, when has it not been pay to win all things considered any game that lets you pay for experiences bonuses is pay to win

Yes its in the original post.

Yeah, really max crafting for the free 60 even? lol

Thanks for the summary, folks. Bummer about all the crafting schematics being lost. Took a lot of efforts to get all that stuff.

If i remember correctly, he said they will just be archived and you can still use them if u want.

Can you gain experience and reach level max without paying for (or using) experience boosts?

 

Yes?

 

Then the game's not P2W. Learn what the phrase, "Pay to win," actually means before throwing it around. If, for example, the Cartel Market was selling raid-tiered gear that you could just buy instead of loot in a raid, THAT would be P2W.

Huge thanks and props to the OP for creating this thread. It really is MUCH appreciated. Thanks.

To me the max skills for bought 60, is unfair and falls into pay to win. The new system would have easily account for them having no skill and they could have level the normal way. The Akk dog being in a pack seem like a cheap move on there part.

 

On the other hand I do like the new herico/pvp hot bar, as well as the resource mode changes, and the new quest tab looks nice. It a mixed bag for me, I'm not a hug fan of the down scaling. either but I suppose it will be nice to be able to do old content and then be reward for it at my level. Well I guess I'll just have to wait and see.

Yup. But because of the stats rework, are old gear schematics even going to be relevant? They will turn into cosmetic items I believe.

thank you so so much, that means a lot to me!

What other value is there for old gear schematics besides cosmetics anyway?

What about all your companion gear? I'd imagine we all spent a lot of time and comms to gear up at least one companion in gear our class can't use (heavy/med/light restrictions, and some cases gender), or is it all adaptive now?

IIRC, Yavin companion gear, with the exception of weapons, will convert to Bind to Legacy items.

What so we wear it now? is it any better than Ziost gear since I never run it enough to get the ziost disks needed to buy the rest of the 190 gear?

 

Thanks for the summary, I did not feel like staying up to watch the "second" half of the stream.

 

Overall I feel happy with the changes, I see that I can still overlevel DK slightly (level 18 before it cuts off) which should help me slightly.

 

I think I may indeed wait to level my characters for a few week and level everything (well almost everything I started the starter worlds on most I created) in 4.0.

 

At least this will give me time to go and replay KOTOR again.
