Event ends next week, Rifle-bow Craziness, + Gearing

Aug16

So, the event ends next Tuesday. This doesn’t surprise me as it is a relatively short event with no repeating. However, some people are kind of annoyed and I sort of get that? I mean, in total, it would cost 811 Tokens of Enrichment to get EVERYTHING. Sure, I doubt someone would want everything (and you can take off 250 if you get lucky and get a Lobelot in a crate), but that’s still a lot…especially when you only get like 10% of that. Maybe more when the event finishes but still, that is a lot of crate hunting. While the vendor will be here a week after the event ends, I’m not sure if the crates will still linger around…

Anyway, a lot of people are pissed off about the Rifle-Bow as it only benefits a select few classes and companions. I…don’t really see the big deal? I mean, it makes sense a Shady Dealer on Nar Shaddaa would have stuff like that, in my opinion. Regardless, I decided to buy a Precision Bowcaster for Risha. I think it’d fit her.

In the meantime, with 1.4 so close, I’m panicking even more about gear 🙁 I wish I just had 3 million-5 million credits so I could get this over it.

A New Lead: Droid Racing

Aug16

This is a fun and simple little quest…which isn’t exactly cheating considering each Droid teamed up against the other one anyway. On the otherhand, if there were no traps, the Gonk Droid would lose to begin with due to being much slower and on the outer edge. I adore Gonk droids though so…

MOVING ON… I was surprised to see a line even this early! Afterall, when I went and did yesterday’s quest, nobody was there. Finally, it hit me. This is the first quest limited to one group at a time where both factions will be doing it, thus, lines. I’m afraid of the one later when I show my boyfriend how to do it.

Regardless, it’s simpler than I expected (actually thought you’d get sent to a race track and need to hit the other racers or keep things off the Gonk Droid or something) and still kind of fun. Looking forward to tomorrow’s quest and will do this again later with Amidaia too~

Up to date on Both Sides

Aug16

So, got it all done on the Imperial side and thankfully, unlike the Rakghoul Event, you do not need to do them in order so if you just get online Friday, you can do them all right then and there. Because of this, however, I see the event not lasting very long. The one thing that bothers me about the event, besides the chances with the crates, are the fact that once you do everything, the only way to get more Tokens are through those crates. The smallest you can get (if you did get all the pieces in each crate and no tokens) without getting tokens from crates is 85 Tokens. …And well, maybe you get more when you officially finish, but until that is confirmed… Regardless, that’s not much at all so the prices are pretty expensive.

Looking forward to the next part later. Would love to stay up for it, but need to get some rest. Not feeling well.

On the bright side, there was another cute line on the Imperial side too :3 (Unfortunately, screenshots weren’t working so I couldn’t take one -___-) Everyone can be so nice when they want to be~ …besides that, someone was bragging about having at least 10 million credits T___T I wish I was in that position ._.
