    The respawn in the stress test, at the beginning of the month, was the opposite of what yall are seeing, and it was also frustrating. Trash out in the world was anywhere from 10 seconds to 1 minute and the 1 boss I found was ~3 min (the boss area was a powerlevel spot, and dropped equal to or...

    This is a game made for consoles and their solution to limited buttons is this weapons swapping system, which is lackluster. When you use an ability in slot 1, whatever that abilities cooldown is, puts every other ability in slot 1 on that cooldown. For example, if I had the following set up...

    It has been a few years since I looked at tint, but I remember reading that there are major material and quality differences. This can affect how much different the materials can bend, their color/sheen, and the color fading over time (turning purple). I think I wanted to go with the Huper Optik...

    D:OS Alpha went into early access around January 14th, 2014 and was fully released on June 30th, 2014. D:OS 2 Alpha went into early access on September 15th, 2016 and was fully released on September 14th, 2017. From the parts of the video I caught, the game is still deep in Alpha. So my off...

    I guess they changed the YouTube link from above, here is the new one. It's mostly just talking about the game and D&D, with a few gameplay clips mixed in (dialog scenes). A couple clips are from the goblin camp, that they showed before (with a bit different outcome). Edit: With it over, these...

    Furthermore, if you are Sorc/Sage or Sniper/GunSlinger you can use your mark and recall to port back to the start of the jump, while falling.

    If your building for soloing hard stuff, I would look at the set that buffs followers (Taskmaster 4pc), and then get 40-50 presence amplifiers on all your gear. The +presence is the only thing you can get on every piece, I think. So, it would make your follower a beast. I have read a few good...

    Sure, but you can rez all your followers that are "dead" or MIA in the story, outside of Arcan, in one of the small rooms in the Alliance base. I think its in the hall leading to the smugglers den. Arcan is kinda cool, but ultimately, replaceable, and who doesn't want Koche dead, anyways! I...

    I like tradeskills in games too, and remeber the game working as you say. So, I spent entirely too many credits leveling up Cybertech, Artificer, and Synthweaving over 600, before I realized how worthless they are, if I wasn't going to invest 10s of millions into it. Space combat missions still...

    Only Hilts/Barrels/armoring and Amplified Champion set items have performance enhancing amplifiers. When you open your level 75 armor or weapons, you will see the armoring mod say something like Periodic Intensity / Weapon Expertise / Tech Wizardry / Force Sensitivity / etc.. When you mouse over...

    What I meant with point 4 was, that you run all the wealthy missions you get on toons with the appropriate trade at level 601+. I never manually gathered a lockbox on Onderon or Mek-Sha, but I guess that could work, for a more active experiences, aye. It really all depends on the drop rate of...

    Going from the 2.4 Ghz to 5.2 Ghz was a noticeable difference in coverage. Walls have a definite retardant affect on the shorter 5.2 Ghz wave length. Two hundred foot into the back yard, I can get full strength through the windows, but trying to go 50 foot, through 4 walls, to the back of the...

    Yea, sorry, I reread your comment, then edited my post, but you were too fast! Edit2: I didnt look through all the recipes, but I think its pretty universal, that you need purple slicing mats somewhere, in every production trade.

    SWTOR

    Slicing is a gathering skill that they turned into a requirement for almost all production trades (purple recipes). I think they did this, to keep slicing relevant, when they nerfed lockboxes down to barely break even status, when using a 50 influence comp. You could try the AH for the green...

    Easiest way I found to make credits is: Get character to ~670+ slicing Get Companion to 40+ influence (level 50 has ~50% chance to crit mission) Run the slicing mission "Off the Radar" (Takes 9 min with level 50 comp) Get criticals on said mission (it gives a random, tradeable, special mission...

    For tradeskills, I dont think you can reverse engineer any of the level 75 stuff, or make 306 mods. Afaik, the only thing (in regards to player power) tradeskills are good for are consumables (dont know costs) and 286 Augments (that go in the augment slot, at the bottom of armor/main hand/off...

    I think you need level 10, maybe 15, to do hammer station. Once you get to somewhere in the 50s, I have read that stealth classes (with a level 50 influence companion) can quickly solo Red Reaper flashpoint as well, but I didn't try that. For group finder, the button is on your mini map, btw.

    So, they sent me an extra 500 cartel coins today, even though I am no longer a sub. I used one of the "recruit a friend" 7 days of premium trial code of some rando on reddit, so I guess it counted as a renewal, since I was still premium after 30 days. Another trick, for using the referral codes...

    I vaguely recall seeing server transfers, the previous time I played ~4 years ago, so they probably had ways to move characters from account to account. With the influx of steam people, low level PvP brackets might be fine, but if you need a pve option, spamming Hammer Station flashpoint is the...

    There are various conditions that disable the refunding of your boost tokens. I don't remember the specifics, but if they are done on a boosted character, they cant be refunded. You can always try to petition EAoware, and tell them you didnt read carefully enough. It took them ~5 days to answer...

    I dont recall having slow downloads, but then, I just let it run while I slept. As for Sniper, Virulence is rather good atm (for PvE at least), you can find 6.0 guide for most specs on Vulkk. PTW is a little tricky, everything that's on the Cartel Market (CM) can be bought on the AH. 99% of...

    Not in any meaningful way, they are all bind on Legacy (all characters on the server), so you can only sell them to vendors for credits, once the refund timer wears off. The mounts probably vendor for 25k credits, which is nothing (I think you can make 1 mil+ doing daily heroics). Of all the...

    They sold an official Star Wars ToR keyboard (Razer) during the first years of the game, that came with macro software, so, while officially against the ToS, I have never heard of any bans for it. A whole bunch of people macro a repeating "1" key to level up their companions. I used the Logitech...

    I think level 10 should be KOTFE & KOTET (all the chapters). So, any 60 to 70 level zone should do it; Zakuul has a bunch of nodes in the swamp, which you play in the early chapters. Iokath might have stuff, but didn't spend too much time there.

    You can level up a few specific companions (not the one pictured), fairly easy, once you get to 75 and start spamming LFG Flashpoints. Dissembling gear for the Tech Frags gives you a TON of Jawa parts. With Jawa parts, you can buy Rank 5 Delicacies (used to be artwork) and Maintenance (used to...

    Having a lot of foot traffic on 18 acres seems kinda weird. Mostly kids wandering around? You can get teen/kid dispersal sirens (Mosquito alarm) that are in frequencies that 30+ year olds cant usually hear.

    Vehicle or foot traffic trespassing? If vehicle, why not get motorized gates at each entry way? You don't need to have a full fence set up even, just a section on each side to keep people from driving around it easily. Set up an alarm on your gate for when its open. If you wanted to get fancy...

    If you dont want the car anymore, the best financial decision for your future use of credit would be to take the hair cut, and sell it outright to a private party, and add your own money to pay it all off, right there.

    They are a bit longer, but I thought all the story flashpoints were worth doing, the first time. Out of the 100+ rando flashpoints from group finder, I have gotten Crisis on Umbara less than 5 times, and the other two have never come up.

    That is story mode? I meant Veteran mode. First, go to the combat wing in fleet and pick up the weekly do 5 veteran flashpoints mission (you might get it automatically upon the flashpoint completion too). Next hit the activities tab on the mini map (the 3 people looking button) or Ctrl-G...

    Lightning is amazing AoE in flashpoints and with the Elemental Convection tacticool, it's easy and a highly mobile spam of chain lightning for days (on all the trash). https://vulkk.com/2019/12/01/swtor-6-0-lightning-sorcerer-pve-guide-by-endonae/

    Fastest way to increase your item level is to spam flashpoints. The gear dropped from bosses and looted from the bonus boxes will be +-2 ilevels of your current ilevel. I would estimate upgrades of +2 happening ~60% of the time, up till items turned blue, then it might have dropped to ~30-40%...

    I interpreted that clip as Homelander just seeing another annoying fan that somehow got on set. Moreover, this "fan" is disrespecting their work by livestreaming behind the scenes without permission, but since it's live, he has to have the nice guy persona to the max. As usual, he would like...
