Keedmo Posted August 26, 2015 Share Posted August 26, 2015 Thank you for the heads up! What size hook will it be able to be placed on? And are there any pictures currently for it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bobs_YourUncle Posted August 26, 2015 Share Posted August 26, 2015 I can't wait to see all the assumptions made based on the fact that some makeb achievements are being removed and what it means about KotFE. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DarthZaul Posted August 26, 2015 Share Posted August 26, 2015 Title implies the weekly its self is being removed, not just the achievement. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TUXs Posted August 26, 2015 Share Posted August 26, 2015 I can't wait to see all the assumptions made based on the fact that some makeb achievements are being removed and what it means about KotFE. Obviously Makeb is being blowed up Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CloudCastle Posted August 26, 2015 Share Posted August 26, 2015 I'm confused. Can someone explain to me like I'm 5 what this means? Are all the Makeb weekly quests going away? Are the things listed individual quests that are going away? Are the things listed sub-achievements that are part of a larger achievement? And are these all going away?

Aezur Posted August 26, 2015 Share Posted August 26, 2015 What's the point in removing these? They are working and they are actually ones that take some time to complete. Why don't you fix/remove <KIll It With Fire>? It been bugged since 2.0 came out... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Theeko Posted August 26, 2015 Share Posted August 26, 2015 What if you get the achievement before 4.0 on one server but not the other, and then server transfer after you get the decor can you still get it on new server? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheSeventhJedi Posted August 26, 2015 Share Posted August 26, 2015 Well, it's not much, but it's information, and I'll take it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SithEmpress Posted August 26, 2015 Share Posted August 26, 2015 I'm wondering why they are removing this and it makes me worried about other content that could face being removed. At least they are giving us a head up, which is better then nothing. I would like to hear the reason why it's being removed. To anyone who has complete the achievement could you give me an estimated on how long it takes to complete as I haven't start it. I would like to get it done but I'm very busy right now.

DarthDymond Posted August 26, 2015 Share Posted August 26, 2015 Are there actual changes coming to the missions / world on Makeb, as well? That's the only reason I could see to remove the Achievements like that. While I'm not too concerned about the achievements for their own sake, I do want to complete the Makeb story arc on all my characters - so a heads-up if that will not be possible after 4.0 would be appreciated.

I think those are the missions you get daily from the droid on the Makeb space station. check it daily, or have someone on your server check it to see which one it is.

I would like to get it done but I'm very busy right now. Depends on the number of characters you have. It takes doing the Weekly about 3-4 times on each side to complete them all. Some of the dailies are very short (less than 5 minutes) and some are an hour long. Each Weekly requires you do 6 Dailies + 1 interlude mission. The achievements require that you do them in a certain order and some require you to do extra "Bonus" missions during the dailies: http://dulfy.net/2013/05/11/swtor-well-connected-makeb-achievement-guide/ http://dulfy.net/2013/05/12/swtor-making-the-connection-makeb-achievement-guide/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dev Post EricMusco Posted August 26, 2015 Author Dev Post Share Posted August 26, 2015 Some quick changes, and clarifications. What is being removed is the Makeb [staged] Weekly Missions. In there place, we are putting new Weekly Missions which will contain largely the same content they do now, except presented in a way that is more consistent with the other Planetary Weekly Missions. I have also updates the thread title to more accurately reflect. Sorry for the confusion! -eric Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nickious Posted August 26, 2015 Share Posted August 26, 2015 I'll gladly trade in a achievement for a decoration. To Dulfy guides and away! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PetFish Posted August 26, 2015 Share Posted August 26, 2015 Can someone tell me how to start the staged weekly? I want to finish the achievements but it's been a long time since I've been to Makeb and all I can find is info on HOW to do them but not actually START them.

You have to finish the makeb storyline first. Then you pick the staged weekly on your orbital station Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Warrgames Posted August 26, 2015 Share Posted August 26, 2015 Staged Weekly is one of my favorite quest. What quest you complete had an effect on what quest you can do next; I wish more weeklies were like this one. Please for the love of Makeb don't have [sTAGE 2] The Dissonance Wave or [sTAGE 1] Operation: Overwatch. Those two are painfully long. I hate a bad feeling that these two are going to be part of it.
