LordCamTheGreat Posted January 10, 2022 Share Posted January 10, 2022 Boosting to 80 does completely and utterly defeat the purpose of testing the levelling experience. Player - "Oh yeah levelling was soooo easy cus I just played through the whole story starting at level 80." Devs - "Ok great we got literally no feedback at all! Here have a reward!" It's ridiculous but it's not as if the earlier PTS stages were clear about what to test anyway. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dev Post JackieKo Posted January 10, 2022 Author Dev Post Share Posted January 10, 2022 I have been levelling a character and doing all of the story/expansions for the pts rewards. Other than having a few floating heads with no bodies or weapons and no bodies, it has been pretty smooth. Until now. I run through the cutscenes before the FP "Objective Meridian", the loading screen for the FP comes up but when it finishes I am standing on fleet outside of the instance, there is no "complete flashpoint: Objective Meridian" quest in my log, just the story quest to finish the FP and I am locked out. There is nowhere I can find where I can pick up the quest. I have tried resetting the quest, same problem. Reset the quest, FT to a few places and try again, same problem. I reset, logged to desktop, restarted the game, went through the cutscene again and still come up with the same issue. This is a game breaker for me, as the sole reason for me wanting to do this FP is so I can finish the achievement that will get me the rewards. If anyone has a fix for this, I would appreciate some input. Hi all, The above quote is from a different thread, but I wanted to add the clarification here to keep the achievements discussion in the same thread where I posted about them. I will also update the OP's thread as well. Due to Objective Meridian being a blocker, we are shifting the completion requirement for the complete expansion story achievement: For Republic players, completing "Race to Refuel" will satisfy the requirement. For Imperial players, completing "The Failsafe" will satisfy the requirement. Thank you! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Keera_Satell Posted January 10, 2022 Share Posted January 10, 2022 Welcome back from vacations. I found this answer so .... sigh. You dont need that FP to complete those achievements. No, it was stated in a post from 17th of December that the final mission to get the expansions story achievement is "Failsafe"/"Race to Refuel". They shouldn't be shifting it only now, as an afterthought. Terrible communication of requirements. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The requirement was shifted from "The Failsafe" or "Race to Refuel" to "The Failsafe" or "Race to Refuel." There was no change. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The_Wulff Posted January 11, 2022 Share Posted January 11, 2022 would be nice to finally know how long exactly the PTS will be up to finish these achievements... "early January" came and went... The original PST post said mid January so I'm hopeful that they intend to keep it open for MLK weekend so people get a long weekend to try to churn through a ton of objectives.

NeoBlakkrstal Posted January 12, 2022 Share Posted January 12, 2022 Hi all, More details about the rewards and titles that can be earned during this PTS phase can be found here! To clarify some information: Progress made against these goals have been tracked since the last time PTS was wiped and brought back online, so that would be since the 8th. Completing the class story is measured by having the “Complete Act 1, 2, and 3” Achievements of the same class Complete all expansion Story content means all expansions currently existing (pre-7.0). You must have completed the following Achievements:“Revenge of the Archon” or “Taking on Toborro”“Facing the Shadow” or “Confronting the Shadow”“Complete Chapter XVI of KOTFE”“Complete Chapter IX of Eternal Throne”“The Race to Refuel” or “The Failsafe” For completing group content, here are a couple of windows of time where we have seen a lot of activity: EU playtime window: 12:00pm - 2:00pm CT / 6:00pm - 8:00pm UTCNA playtime window: 6:00pm - 8:00pm CT / 12:00am - 2:00am UTC I hope above the info has been helpful. What would really be helpful would be getting rid of the Win or Nothing aspect of PvP. THAT would actually help. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Amantino Posted January 12, 2022 Share Posted January 12, 2022 Sorry, but I've to emphasize that the rewards for participating on the PTS to achieve all of these is ridiculous. You are asking your fanbase to spend several hundreds of hours of everybody's time to get the rewards? It just took me ~30 hours to rush through the main game's class story to reach level 50. It's practically impossible to playtest the group content (at least with the char at lvl 50 - while listing for ~8 hours today and another ~4 hours listing for space battle yesterday, all group contents which opened was one FP instance). I completed all requirements in about 30 hours. Could have done it in 20 if more prepared and stealth class. Really wasn't that bad, just boring.

chaharbagh Posted January 12, 2022 Share Posted January 12, 2022 Do we have to do each and every Heroic weekly (example: Taris, Tatooine, Hoth, and Belsavis) or can we just do one of them in order to qualify for rewards? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I took it to mean any weekly for heroics but odds are you will want to do more just to grind for your 322 gear. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Can we please get a Dev clarification for this? I assume you only need one, since they rotate weekly, but I would hate to miss out because I was mistaken.

It was clarified a month ago. https://www.swtor.com/community/showthread.php?p=9990510#post9990510 Regarding the weeklies, completing any of each of the PvP, Heroic, and Flashpoint Weekly Missions will suffice. You don't have to worry about ranked vs unranked, mode, or playing with both factions. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know we can track some of the achievements, but others (pvp, heroics, etc) are a bit more nebulous. It would be lovely to know for sure that we're all set. Thanks!
