Lightside Juggernaught is pretty awesome. I'm on a US server with that. Can't recall which it is, cuz i don't play often. Still trying to get out of Silver V in League. Damn promo throws..

I have a lvl 53 Sith Inquisitor back when that expansion first came out on Ebon Hawk, though.


But literally everything you want is now Pay to Gain. Which is annoying. Purple drops? Pay for. No helmet? Pay for. Starting Races? Pay for!

TOR is a game that sounds really cool to me, but both of my past computers can't run it. My dad gave me his old desktop, and one night, the power flashed and it broke, while I had TOR installed. He also gave me his old laptop, which now doesn't work because the circuits to the screen snapped from being open too long. Both were 2007 Windows computers.

You also have to be careful with TOR, because the native resolution (with no prompt to change prior to running) is setup extremely high it's moronic. I've had to spend an entire night fixing my resolution blind, because of TOR about three times now.

So, I started up a Knight character too and it's okay so far.

It's all just sort of okay.

My opinion, smuggler has the best story. I'm not too keen on force-using classes.

I'm enjoying the majority of the stories right now, although the Sith stuff is painful to listen to at times but that's neither here nor there.

The cartel coins system is pretty ridiculous right now though. It costs 600 cartel coins just to get the Twi'lek species for your characters.

This. But if you finish a story line completely you get them unlockable through legacy or somesuch.

If you want your human character to have white eyes, you have to pay 100 CC, but you can't even use them on Cyborg characters, who are basically humans with machines strapped to their faces. So I essentially bought the white eyes for naught, first time I've made a genuine micros-transaction mistake, but sure I got it free with a code so I'm not complaining.

Pretty sure you can undo some purchases.

Also removing helmet is a must if you have a species with any kind of head detail, like a Twi'lek. But nope. You gotta pay for that, too after paying 600c.

Can you even remove the hood from Jedi robes?

The hood counts as part of your armour and the head is a separate slot. There are a bunch of really puzzling decisions.

Also, if you want a white lightsaber, you have to pay millions of credits, when a preferred player or free to play player, is limited to like 350,000 credits at a time.

Once you put on a head piece the hood should go away.

Will the hood still go away if I hide the head slot? Or will I just have to wear a ****ing tiara or something?

Oh cool. I've got a few characters on there.

My two 'mains' I guess are Liddia (Jedi Knight) and Kuvo (Smuggler).

With Imperials I have Eeda (Bounty Hunter) and Roenin (Sith Inquisitor).

The game's improved massively since launch.

Unfortunately you picked probably the worst character story.

I still have a subscription, but I've been fairly inactive lately.

Mmmmmmmm, nah.

Jedi are worst stories in my opinion. The non FS classes have amazing stories.

I suggest Agent and Bounty Hunter for first playthroughs.

Inquisitor for second?
