Vandicus Posted August 30, 2012 Share Posted August 30, 2012 when is 1.4 ? Last word we heard was Terror from Beyond was coming in September. Since this says 1.4 comes with Terror from Beyond, that would also indicate September. Its always possible that they'll be pushed back to October though.

siyuandai Posted August 30, 2012 Share Posted August 30, 2012 Any guess as to who this familiar face will be? I'm putting my money on Darth Malgus Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cubed_Art Posted August 30, 2012 Share Posted August 30, 2012 Does 1.4 include HK-51 as well? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vandicus Posted August 30, 2012 Share Posted August 30, 2012 Any guess as to who this familiar face will be? I'm putting my money on Darth Malgus No, there's no way he's still alive. Revan comes to mind as there's the theory that he teleported away rather than dying, but I believe him not being happy to see you would be somewhat strange from Pub side.

Ferkles Posted August 30, 2012 Share Posted August 30, 2012 Any guess as to who this familiar face will be? I'm putting my money on Darth Malgus My money's on Malgus too. What with the new Malgus statue competition, the fact that he was the figurine that came with the collector's edition, and the almost unceremonious death we gave him in The False Emperor, he would be the logical choice. After all, an unceremonious death doesn't matter if he doesn't actually die. Course, I could be wrong. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paleran Posted August 30, 2012 Share Posted August 30, 2012 Can you please elaborate on what the intended gear level is for story mode, please? I saw that Hard Mode is for folks in full campaign, but not the difficulty level of Story Mode. Thanks! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tatile Posted August 30, 2012 Share Posted August 30, 2012 Any guess as to who this familiar face will be? I'm putting my money on Darth Malgus Kephess, maybe? He's still an instrument of the Dread Masters. Ms. Woods, thank you for the blog update, quite an interesting read. I've already linked it on my guild's forum, now I just need to beat them senseless enough to get them to respond ^.^ I hope you can keep the blog updated. What sort of an update schedule do you have in mind? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thoffs Posted August 30, 2012 Share Posted August 30, 2012 Good update, can't wait to see this on test. What loot type will drop from Terror From Beyond story mode? I have my guesses/assumptions that is based on what others have speculated (i.e., campaign gear), but I would like to hear it from a developer.

I saw that Hard Mode is for folks in full campaign, but not the difficulty level of Story Mode. Thanks! The implication would be that its Rakata, much like HM EC is designed to be doable in Rakata.

BurnedRemains Posted August 30, 2012 Share Posted August 30, 2012 It's Malgus. I guarantee it. He did not die. Check his wiki. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Vandicus Posted August 30, 2012 Share Posted August 30, 2012 My guess is black hole gear mostly. Black Hole gear is the equivalent of Campaign gear stat wise, minus the set bonus. In some cases Black Hole gear is superior, due to the strange itemization on Campaign armorings. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
anakedcowboy Posted August 30, 2012 Share Posted August 30, 2012 a full set of Campaign gear Like, a full set of standard campaign gear, some of which is inarguably worse than the rakata it's suppossed to replace? Or Campaign gear where players have swapped out the mods and enhancements with stuff from other pieces of black hole gear to make it good? There's honestly a pretty huge difference.

Flying-Brian Posted August 30, 2012 Share Posted August 30, 2012 Any guess as to who this familiar face will be? I'm putting my money on Darth Malgus It's Kephess. Read the old 1.3 leak info on torhead about this OP. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vandicus Posted August 30, 2012 Share Posted August 30, 2012 It's Kephess. Read the old 1.3 leak info on torhead about this OP. That leak doesn't make any mention of Kephess. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
anakedcowboy Posted August 30, 2012 Share Posted August 30, 2012 That leak doesn't make any mention of Kephess. expand the (+) things. Major Cobus: Kephess is working for the Dread Masters now--a group of rogue Sith trying to start their own Empire. Not sure how opening a hypergate helps. Gatemaster Beltekk: The one you call Kephess is now perpendicular to the hypergate. He must be terminated, but we do not have bisectors capable of this.

Vandicus Posted August 30, 2012 Share Posted August 30, 2012 expand the (+) things. Good catch. Now the question is how in the world did he survive? Did the dread masters somehow bring him back to life> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Vandicus Posted August 30, 2012 Share Posted August 30, 2012 Only thing going through my mind while reading the fourth paragraph. Teaming up to fight Cthulu with special Gree technology mechanics isn't quite the same thing as gang banging Illidan. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
