I won't complete the blueprints objective either and am not going to spend hours running around killing lowbie mobs. The drop rate is extremely low even with the Brazz's gift boost. The reputation track was easily tracked and completed, this blueprint stuff is too reliant on random drops. Plus, the decoration is not incentive enough to bother.

Many players do conquest or PVP seasons but do not have a handy way to track progress unless logging into each character. It would be nice to have that data displayed on the character select screen in some way. At a quick glance we would know a character has 59,000 points, while others may have a smaller number or even zero. This display could be optional in case some don't want it, but for those of us who would find it handy, it would be a nice addition.

Maybe I read the patch notes wrong or I'm misunderstanding you. Are you saying that instead of receiving just 5K Conquest points for doing a heroic on Coruscant, then 650 for each one after that, we now get the 5K for each one? In other words, 20K for doing all 4, then what ever extra for defeating enemies? If so, I owe an apology to the devs. If not, then it'll just be the same old grind since 7.4.1b. Oh, and when the bonus for 10 heroic is up I do pub side Tatooine, Coruscant, and Belsavis leaving 2 open on each planet. The next day, I do the 2 plus it gives an extra for completing the weekly, so 9 total. Then I do the 10th on whatever toon needs the conquest points the most. Hope that makes sense, but it works for me.

So, the resolution for the Reputation nerf is to open up planetary missions and let lowbies under level 10 do the heroic mission and get a whopping extra 350 points? Did I get something wrong or misunderstand? There was no compromise by even giving half of the 45K back? So, small guilds are still SOL. So be it. I'll still be spending less time in the game, and when I've had enough, maybe no time at all.

I used to grind out conquest every week for 2 small guilds, Pub and Imp. Now, I don't bother. I log in long enough to finish 5 weeklies for GS, and the 25K per day after that and I'm done. Since the nerf, my friend plays even less than that. And yes, I agree that this nerf was done due to the easy hand in of Rep tokens for the 25K per day. And it backfired. No wonder they didn't put this up on the PTS. They had to have known or at least suspected. All they did was delay the backlash. They should have known better. Their own metrics have to be telling them how much this failed and then there are those who are unsubbing. As the man holding the reins, Keith needs to do better. And though he's tried to herd players into PVP, GFS, and Ops since he took over, that's failed too. I'd rather eat ground glass. So, here we are and the unsub button is calling my name too.

I just wanted to drop in and say Thank You to the devs for mostly reversing the loot issue. Now about those reputation points for conquest. Even bumping it up to 20 or 30 points would help. I think the reason had to do with this Galactic Seasons where they didn't want people to just log in and get the 25 daily points too easily. However, they didn't stop to think about those of us who also grinded out conquest on several alts, especially those of us with small guilds. And what about when season 6 ends? We'll wait and see if they rectify this in the next patch. Fingers crossed.

This was posted for the 7.4.1b patch. Fitted Armors and Weapons for World Drops and Ancient Armaments are now Bind to Legacy on Equip and have a Vendor Value of 100 credits to allow sale on the GTN and Vendors. Reduced the drop rates of new items in the "Grade 11 Treasure Hunting Lockbox" significantly to better align with previous drop rates. I'm not sure Broadsword got the point about the Fitted Armor drops. It's not that they occasionally dropped, it's that they completely replaced the loot table. Even selling at 100 credits a pop, it won't make up for the lost tech frags, conquest commendations, or jawa junk we got from deconstruction of the other 320 gear. We also no longer get the goody bags containing 10 fragments, conquest coms. war zone or ops commendations. It might help new players build up their bank accounts, or some may use them in outfitter, but for those of us who are still gearing alts, or use the jawa junk for crafting, it's pretty useless. I guess the change with the patch is better than nothing, but it still misses the mark by a mile or maybe a parsec or two. EDIT: I almost forgot. We used to get decorations from Ossus but not any more. Seems that loot table has been replaced by the Fitted Armor as well. Not sure if anyone else has noticed, but Ossus is one of my regular daily planets and no decos have dropped since 7.4.1.

The entire response is basically telling the player base "Sorry about your luck" "Deal with it." Though the Copero Stronghold is lovely, even the story part of it requires doing flashpoints. Yes, some can be soloed, but it's still pushing group content. The same as Conquest is pushing group content. I see they didn't nerf Starfighter or PVP. So, as usual, they are trying to herd players into those activities. Due to a disability I can no longer PVP or do Ops. Well, I could do PVP if I just stood there and got annihilated over and over again. Oh wait, I can't because I'd be kicked from the group. Starfighter makes me nauseous. So, here we are. I've gone from playing several hours a week to make guild conquest on my friend and my small guild. Now I'm logging in just long enough to get the Seasons points. If you wanted me to play less, all you had to do was ask. My sincerest sympathies for those who can't log in at all.

Ran a couple of heroics and my bag filled up with this useless junk. Can't vendor it, and what's worse is it can't be deconstructed for tech frags, conquest commendations, or more importantly, jawa junk. This is going to hit crafters hard, especially for players new to the game who could purchase crafting items with jawa junk. So, what's our source for jawa junk now? No wonder they didn't put 7.4.1 up on the PTS. I guess they wanted to avoid the backlash. Between this and the Reputation nerf, all they did was delay it.

I saw that too. So basically they want everyone to do a single GS quest/level per day for the 10K, then the whopping 22K once per week. Huh. It still doesn't equate. I noticed they didn't nerf any group content though which is fine, but not everyone does group stuff. I used to pvp and do Ops but developed a disability that no longer allows me to participate. So, I guess I just stable my alts for now. Also, what's the deal with that Fitted Armor? You can't vendor it, can't deconstruct it for tech frags, jawa junk, or conquest commendations. Yeah, you can GTN the stuff, but boy, does it fill up inventory fast. So, no, not happy with these changes at all.

Conquest is the major reason for me to log in every day in between Galactic Seasons and new story content. My friend and I have a small guild and this will make conquest much harder to achieve. This nerf has taken away my incentive to log in and play on multiple toons. This hurts the game and I don't see the point of why this change was done.

Yes, many of us have been asking for more interaction, even just a letter. I guess they listened. It may be a long time before we see all of your romanced companions, but it's something to look forward too. A bit of extra sauce. What do you wanna bet Quinn is last on the list? LOL. Anyway, the news made quite a few of us happy.

I have 1 SW with Arcann and am stoked about date night, not only with him, but with the others as well. Any bets as to if Quinn is last in line? LOL. Anyway, this has been suggested several times. I'm so pleased that the devs are doing this.

I just wanted to say Thank You for the "Date Night." I've seen it suggested or asked for many times. Just short, replayable content with our companions that have been silent for too long. No, it's not just a "Girly" thing. I remember after we lost all of our companions, a lot of dudes were on here asking, "When do I get Jaesa, Vette, Kira, whoever back? Where's my wife?" Overall I see this as a positive thing for many of us. And for those who don't care, we all survive parts of the game we don't like. Thanks again, Devs for the little extras you add. We appreciate you.

This may be to force more people to buy the companion boosts from the cartel market instead of being able to make dark projects.
