No one went "off node", I started to, and then decided "f' it, I can get sap capped so easy it's just not worth it to try to go solo guard", quit and killed the game.

Another gearing thing I just noticed... did bioware remove the ability to see and swap out augments? When I open the customize panel for a piece of customizable gear I can see the armor, mod, enhancement, tuning... but the augment, even though it has one installed, doesn't show up anywhere. So, say I want to swap out that 6.5 million-I-just-spent-on-it augment... how do I get the old one back into inventory? Or do I just eat that cost, because "pft, 6 million... that's pocket change!"? (Right, I can't even install all the KITS I have right now, because I ran out of credits.)

Not really seeing much incentive to immediately plop down the credit card to keep the sub up, honestly. Been playing DDO instead. Sure, it's old, and the graphics are dated, and it has some lag problems, and no PvP to speak of. But hey, they opened up all their quests for free during this covid thing. What did bioware do?
I didn't have much time the last couple weeks to play, now that you are running in uber gears and stuff I'd actually accept you to group with my healer now! Don't quit, it's not too late for us Banderal! Give us another chance!

Hey, for real let me know your play time I will log in I need to dust the rust off my sorc I can heal you and you can be the awesome tank you always are and we can make people mad we got a premade of healer/tank and we can't die ever and ever.... yeah!

You should still be able to see/remove augments. I can do it on mine.
Go into the game preferences and check the settings. I know there is an option that simplifies the stats into one and this can make it look like you haven’t got augments installed or if you do, makes it look like they aren’t there.

Oh, I see what happened. I now have to use a mod station to view/change the augments. I *swear* that in 5.X I only had to use the mod station to install the kit, and once the kit was installed I could mess with the augs all I wanted from anywhere. I see a little "tip" there when I'm not at a station that says "Hey, YOU CAN BUY A PERK TO LET YOU DO THIS THING YOU USED TO BE ABLE TO DO FOR FREE!!! DON'TCHA WANT TO DO THAT!? HUH? DON'T YA!?" Gotta have that credit drain (or cartel coin income).

And also...

Well, I was stupid and forgot I gave Bioware a card number that would still work, so I guess I'm signed up and "gearing via only pvp" for another month. (I usually give them virtual numbers that last only a month, so that this doesn't happen. I think last time I was optimistic and give them one that was good for 2 months. )

I'm on usually sometime around 4-6 PM EST. Sometimes later, but usually I get disgusted with the game/players during that time and quit and do something else.

See it's fate, you were meant to play SWTOR another month and you just didn't know it. Don't fight fate, you never win.

Haha. Well, sometimes I'm on very early in the morning for me, if I wake up and can't get back to sleep. I mean, I'm not going to start WORK early. So that would be like 4:30-5 AM ish for a while.
