Sounds good. Are you in a guild as well?

I am thinking I will finish off my Inquisitor, then start my smuggler.

Ok.

Tried to sub up for 30 days and... .can't. Their billing system is down and when I try to get a hold of someone to let them know, or post, I cannot do that either because I cannot post on their forums without being a subscriber.

Good times.

Will finally be able to play this weekend.
Look for a imperial agent on Shadowlands codenamed Regime keeping it real with my healing ewok slave Trixxie.

You need to play on JC!

If I can ever get the subscription page to work.

the travel changes combined with 12x xp is pretty op, especially on an Agent cus of stealth. I kinda hate agent/smuggler gameplay, the combat was never very appealing to me. but with the changes I don't really have to fight much at all to see the story. Quick travel having no cooldown is just insane. taxi to the hub, speeder to the quest objective, stealth through the phase, kill the 1 baddie or click the quest object, quick travel back to quest giver, quick travel to next hub (or QT to unlocked taxi stand and then taxi to next hub, if the QT point hasn't been discovered yet) repeat. I play in like 1-2 hour chunks. used to be enough to finish a quest hub on a planet, now with the 12x being able to ignore all quest givers and only follow storyline, and the travel changes, it's enough to finish entire planets.

Yeah what is the big deal with the Sentinel/Marauder thing?

My Smuggler is 23 but I may start over with him because I cannot remember any of the story. Should take about an hour and a half to catch up back to 23

Ooh nevermind - I found the thread:

Star Wars Nerds gone wild.

Dumb-asses butthurt over class balance changes.

So who is all playing this weekend? I have tonight all night and tomorrow from 10-2:30 and then 6:30 until Monday.

We should all get together. Jedi Covenant?

i'm on shadowlands. gave up on the agent, i just despise the gameplay so fucking much, and the story didn't seem all that epic as i had been led to believe (like halfway through act 2, no idea if it gets amaze balls later).

but i'm also in japan so you're probably sleeping when i'm playing and shit.

I played sith warrior first and it just felt, idk, hand crafted? is that the right way to explain it? Like they have the level/world builders building these different planets/quest hubs, and the warrior had a unique reason to visit each one, interspersed between meet ups and follow ups and etc, going back and forth between various worlds you'd previously visited, etc.

I know it was basically just a carbon copy of Darth Vader's storyline in this setting, but it felt like they wrote the story first and then built the worlds to fit that story. Obviously this isn't how they did it of course, but the way they wrote the story it made itfeellike they did. All the other classes i've played so far (Inquisitor, consular, trooper, bounty hunter, agent), some being good some being bad based on the writing, it seems like their stories were basically just pigeon holed in to fit the worlds created for the warrior storyline. So it's like, "we need a reason for class X to visit these 4 planets, Inquisitor is hunting down relics and shit, there are 4 they are on planets 1, 2, 3, 4. Agent, you are hunting down terrorists, they are on planets 1, 2, 3, 4; Bounty Hunter, man this story just writes itself really etc etc etc"

I'm playing a jedi knight now and yeah, this is just the luke skywalker story, I get that, but it too feels like it was hand crafted for the republic side. And the other republic classes are forced to fit it. ok for trooper he's hunting down traitors from his unit, there are 4 and they are on planet 1, 2, 3, 4, consular there are 4 jedi masters who are being mind controlled, they are, you guessed it, on planets 1, 2, 3, 4. etc

Idk, it just seems like they just phoned it in for the other classes, atleast as far as the first couple of Acts are concerned. I've only done Warrior, Inquisitor, and trooper so far to 60, but they just seem so damn predictable it seems kinda pointless to continue them. Especially agent. ppl were all like "omg wait for the twist!" and i'm like, what twist? that Act 1 "twist" was so damn obvious from like level 8.

and of course i spoke too soon. while the jedi story feels hand crafted like the sith warrior as I explained above, the jedi knight is a moron. I guess it's roleplaying or something, but fuck is it annoying playing a character so dumb. This is obviously a trap, why aren't any of my dialogue options "uh, this is fucking stupid, why would i do that?". Oh look the bad guy pretended to be a wounded good guy, and kidnapped the scientist. My automatic voice over response was "I won't fall for that again". And the very next fight, look it's a bad guy pretending to be a wounded good guy. CLEARLY THATS THE BAD GUY. She just fucking assassinated your quest giver right i front of you? why the fuck did you let her walk away? Ohhh what a twist! she was the bad guy? needed your jedi master to explain it to you barney style cus the jedi knight was busy eating lead paint chips or something.
