Link please. I think you're getting this confused with crystals.

Nope. No link to provide. They plan to add those along with plenty of other schematics over the course from 1.2 to 1.5. Just using my own knowledge from what I was told by a Bioware employee over my guilds VOIP server.

The other funny thing I find is all these people buying those expensive crystals and stuff off the vendors now... going to be in for a funny and rude awakening on Thursday :)

I was looking at the recipe for a speeder last week, and based on the amount of underworld trading metals needed the crafted ones are going to be expensive. I could craft several starship upgrades instead, that sell for $4K and $10K each for grades 2 and 4. So if I was crafting a level 25 speeder I might need to price it at $15-20K (vs. $8K for a standard model) to match what I'd get from ship upgrades.

having fun finally being able to change the UI... is it possible to export/import other people's UI's, though? that would be awesome.

Yes, they're completely shareable according to the initial trailer for the feature.

Also iirc it comes with some 'pre sets' and one of them is very similar to a WoW setup for those of you looking for that. Though I don't remember the name offhand.

When I first saw that 1.2 was today is was kinda like boo as. I hadn't finished act 1 on the ptr yet, then I saw how far you had to level to do so aand decided I was done playing on the ptr.

Didn't have to level far. First title is reaching level 10. Second title is just complete act 1 of the class story line. If you have a level 50 friend that got transferred over you can get that done in a couple of hours.

Color me extremely unimpressed with 1.2

Well, you knew almost everything that was coming upwards of a month ago at least. Not sure what you were expecting.

I just read the final patch notes and I think it's a massive upgrade for the game. Not just in terms of content but lots of bug fixes, rough edges getting cleaned up, and mechanical/technical robustness.

What parts of it? Because really it had a little something for everyone. If none of it appealed to you then you should probably unsub if you haven't already.

The Legacy is a letdown for me, but I knew it was going to be like that when we first learned of what they are adding.

Not getting the ranked WZs sucks, but my server pop is low so don't know how well it would have worked anyways.

Other than that the new stuff should keep me busy for a month or so..

Cliffs explain. Anyway, it's not really a "We fucked up" post, but it may be cleverly disguised. It's the 1.2 "Legacy System" celebration, uh... "rewards".

Tauntaun! :awe:

Which begs the question... Why the HELL aren't there any Tauntaun mounts in the damn game?!

Agreed. I still get super excited whenever I run into a tauntaun in the wild. :$

That is gonna piss off a lot of people lol

I have 2 level 50s, but know many people that are just below 50 or have quite a few chars in their 30-40s and probably have more playtime than me yet never got 1 to 50 =p
