Pacov's place to enjoy the show.

Just thought I'd get this going and then weigh in sometime soon.  I picked it up and, so far, absolutely love it.  My first character is a Sith Juggernaut Warrior.  I love how its really story driven and the huge amount of voice acting.  I also dig how crafting is setup.  Anyway, all the time I'm going to put into this post for now... back to playing


Thought I'd update this with some useful info instead of having to dig through the thread.

Clan info, servers, etc.

Many of us are on the Kass City server - includes many SD staffers + folks from the community

  • pacov (pacov)- Bounty Hunter - mercenary (dps) - level 50

I'm level 47 but haven't had much time to play in the last few weeks, and the fiance is off this weekend too, so I won't be able to sit around and play video games like I love to.

Finally got time to play through the Karagga's Palace operation last night. Mechanically (and technically) impressed me much more than Eternity Vault did, aside from Soa (the last boss in EV). No bugs to speak of, it felt much more polished than the previous operation and had a blast.

Was also massively impressed with the Assault on Kaon Flashpoint last week, the bonus boss in the hardmode was hugely challenging for my group but mainly I was just loving the vibe. Odd that just released stuff seems more polished and bug free than older stuff but it seems to bode well.

Wish our guild was a bit more proactive on the social aspect of the game. I have not played with anyone but 2 members in my entire SWTOR history.

Same.  I'm not sure if its possible to be in 2 guilds or not.  I'm going to wait about a bit and see if things change once more and more of us start hitting 50 to see if we end up doing more flashpoints/ops together.  If not, I'll likely try to find another guild thats a little more active in that sort of thing.  As it is, I think I'm the only level 50 in our little group, but some are creeping up there.

You should start hitting me up for some flashpoints.  I'm pretty much up for just about anything.

Thanks for chiming in.  I'm looking forward to Karagga's next then.  I also didn't know that they throw in extra bosses in hard mode.  Hoping to do some of those soon. 

re: some new things seeming more polished than the old - who knows; could be they had completely diff dev teams working on the different pieces or perhaps they've just been gaining more and more experience as they go along with their QA and dev.  That said, that's extremely encouraging to hear, though.

Pacov - play LoL while other people catch up in lvl.

 I'll probably try and hit 50 this Saturday. 

on Jan 26, 2012

I should...

Does anyone know if repeatable dailies exist on all planets or just specific ones?  I'm not just referring to heroics.  Just trying to figure out all of my option at level 50.  I've been going through and wrapping up a few bonus missions.

on Jan 26, 2012

The only dailies i know of are the pvp, heroics, and flashpoints.

So, I started a new character yesterday.  Decided to go with an imperial agent that I intend to spec as a sniper once I hit 10.  I'm really enjoying the story so far.  It's quite a bit of fun to play a spy.  I'm finding I'm skipping a bunch of dialog that I went through the 1st time as a bounty hunter, (making different choices often), but listening to all of the agent dialog anyway.  Really fun stuff.  I also decided to shoot myself 100k from my main account.  As its so much easier to get 100k at level 50 (1-2 hours tops), I figured this might be quite a bit more fun.  I didn't really like saving money left and right for multiple days so I could get my speeder ASAP.  This way, I can just have my fun and then shoot some more dough over from my main when its needed.  Anyway, I'm glad you can send stuff to yourself anyway.

I expect I'll be playing quite a bit this evening.  If anyone wants to do some flashpoints or heroics, hit me up.  I've got my level 50 bounty hunter or my level 7ish agent.  I don't think the friend list stuff transfers over the account, so you'll probably need to add me under my new character as well.  Then just let me know what you want to do.

level 50 bounty hunter - pacov

level 7 imperial agent - pewpewpacov

I might join you when you get past Dromund Kaas. Got my bounty hunter tank to level up.

You guys should really try out some of the light side story lines too.  For example, the Jedi Guardian story line was about a million times better than the BH story line.  I like the gamplay of the BH, but the story is just not very good compared to the JG.

on Jan 27, 2012

I'm definiately going to give the jedi stuff a go after a bit.  Anyway, hopping back on now and about to make my way to dromond.

Actually have my own 4 Republic characters on their own server. Hyperspace Cannon. It is a blast though I play Jedi Sentinel.

Ryat - Sentinel
Ryata - Gunslinger
Tayme - Sage
Zachy - Commando

level 13 and still playing for a bit longer.

2 things I noticed - 1 I STRONGLY recommend.  1 - I had turned on subtitles - pretty sure most everyone reads faster than they listen.  I decided to turn it off and I'm very glad I did.  I noticed that recently I was quickly skipping through things after reading.  Reading everything, at least for me, had me miss the mood/emotion that was intended with the direction.  I'd read and be like... yeah... blahblah what do I need to do.  When I turned the subtitles off, I actually listen again and pay attention to what's going on.  Anyway, at least for me, I find its much more enjoyable to listen and watch than just read.  If you are skipping over the story in places or finding yourself getting bored, I suggest going this route.  Very helpful to me.

2-I think they made some sort of change recently with alt+tab.  I play SWTOR in full screen mode.  In the past, say when I'm looking for datacrons or w/e. when I alt+tab out, screwy crap could happen or it take a bit.  Tonight, I alt+tab and I'm seeing my webbrowser perfectly and the game in the back ground.  Super nice for datacron hunting or even this post.  Glad they sorted that.

Probably switched to fullscreen-windowed without noticing.

Ah - I'm guessing that's the case.  I'm going to keep it this way as I do like being able to easy swap back and forth on the web.  Good stuff.

So, I've had the plague (or flu if you prefer) since Saturday.  Took off Monday and Tuesday from work and spent a good chunk of time grinding out levels on my 2nd character (imperial agent dps sniper).  Anyway, I've taken a different approach with this character than I did with my bounty hunter.  I'm being quite social.

I decided early on that I'd do each and every heroic along with each and every flashpoint at the appropriate time (eg level 25 flashpoints around level 25 and so on).  As a result, I'm been teaming up with folks left and right and have made some new pals - a few of which I expect to team up with on a regular basis as we seem to be moving at similar paces. 

Onto stupid stories from SWTOR - I'm on Nar Shadda.  I use my imperial agent buff on a bounty hunter (I typically do this sort of thing all the time when I pass folks and it occasionally results in them returning the favor).  Well, this time a guy immediately says "you in a guild."  I say no (guild membership is apparently per character and not per account).  He says "want to join."  I say "sure."  He invites me to his guild and I join.  Now, do I expect anything to come of this?  Nope.  If it does, then super.  Anyway, then he and I go along and complete a quest or 2.  The last quest we do makes me want to punch him in the face. 

You know that bounty hunter bug where sometimes you will continue to shoot your gun over and over, but do no damage (eg after the enemy is dead)?  Well, he did that just as we were hearing the audio for my imperial agent quest.  And I turned off subtitles so I'd pay more attention to the dialog... only I can't hear the dialog because this jack ass is firing his gun non stop.  Anyway, long story short, I have no idea what Agent X was saying... at all... and it seemed to be a bit of dialog.  Anyway, do any of you remember the imperial agent storyline where Agent X appears to be blackmailing you (maybe)? 

Anywho... I'd love to know what was said... smeh
