YAY! I would’ve liked to have Republic Tattoos, but it’s not a big deal. Just happy to finally have her made and I think her tattoos look cute on her!

Customer Support <3
So, I received answers to my full codex ticket today 🙂 And now pretty much all my glitched codexes have been fixed. They only ones that could not be fixed are the PVP ones as apparently they just can’t fix achievement-based ones but they’d look into the issue and The History of Tatooine which due to how it’s gotten apparently couldn’t be confirmed if I did it or not. It’s understandable though.
But yeah, he let me know if it was Imperial only or a different class only and everything got worked out.
Waiting to hear back on the Zabrak issue and staying hopeful as despite no downtime tonight, the vendor will still be leaving at 3AM EST. Shall edit this if I have any updates.
Edit: So, this has turned out to be quite a more serious predicament than expected! Right now, I have to stay logged out for 10 minutes while they do some serious testing.
I explain the issue to them and they tell me it is working as it is supposed to. I’m confused as I swear I’ve seen Imperial colored Jedi. I wonder if maybe I’m just crazy, but I’m just pretty sure. So, we continue talking and they tested it twice buying the perk and didn’t get the option so they believe this is just how it is and they said they can give me the 1.5 million back.
So, I ask in General Chat if anyone has unlocked the Zabrak race and made an Imperial colored Republic character. A nice person named Rishy tells me they have and I excitedly confirm with them and they tell me where to meet them so they can switch. So, they log into Derpina who is a red Zabrak Jedi Sage. I show Customer Support and now they are trying to figure this out. It seems, for whatever reason, you only get all the options if you unlock it through a level 50 character over buying it which isn’t how it is supposed to work. They leveled a Sentinel so as expected, it doesn’t have to be a specific faction to unlock. It’s just supposed to unlock both sides regardless.
Hopefully they can just flip some kind of switch in my account for me and then just work on the bug as I’d really love to make my Trooper tonight. Anyway, just 2 minutes to go until I can log back in! Going to try and stay hopeful 🙂 At the very least, this proves I’m not crazy!
PVP Discussion
Due to a…depressing conversation, it came to the conclusion that you can get about 1K Ranked Commendations if you do all your dailies and your weekly each week. Technically a bit more as you’d also get 1K normal commendations (+50 on average per Warzone) and you can trade them in for Ranked…but if you do not do that, it would be about 1-3 weeks to get things.
And…one match of PVP practically breaks me. That much PVP? I think I’d go insane. I can barely do normal dailies.
So, in the meantime, I decided to make a detailed PVP list for whatever I would need:
War Hero Force-Mystic’s Cuffs (1,250 Ranked Commendations + Battle Master Cuffs (550 WC))
War Hero Force-Mystic’s Sash (1,425 Ranked Commendations + Battle Master Sash (625 WC))
Elite War Hero Force-Mystic’s Focus (3,475 Ranked Commendations + War Hero Force-Mystic’s Focus (3,475 Ranked Commendations + Battle Master Force-Master Focus (1,550 WC))
War Hero Force-healer’s MK-1 Relay (1,425 RC + 200 WC)
War Hero Force-healer’s MK-1 System (1,425 RC + 200 WC)
War Hero Force-Master’s Headgear (2,425 RC + Battle Master Hat)
War Hero Force-Mystic’s Boots (2,000 RC + Battle Master Boots)
War Hero Force-Mystic’s Gloves (2,000 RC + Battle Master Gloves)
War Hero Force-Mystic’s Robe (3,200 RC + Battle Master Robe)
War Hero Force-Mystic’s Lower Robe (2,225 RC + Battle Master Bottoms)
Commendation totals: 20,750 RC + 3,125 WC (not counting a Lightsaber)
(eventually I got tired typing it all out so RC = Ranked Commendations and WC = Warzone Commendations)
So, that’ll be like… 5 months or so. …fun 😐
Not to mention the fact that I still need the Consular’s Exalted Boots and Gloves…. v-v Which is 300K. Then, switching War Hero stuff into my Hat, Boots, Gloves, Top, and Bottom… Which is 90K per item x5 which is 450K. Then, adding augments to 12 items (already have in my top and bottom)… 30K x12 = 360K. Not to mention getting those 12 augments. I mean, yes, I can make them, but I need more of those slicing things first :/ Which are super expensive. Regardless, we are already up to 1,110,000 credits.
Lightsaber will be last (if I do so at all) until they add a Magenta Expertise crystal :/ (For the record though, it costs 3,475 RC + Battle Master Lightsaber (1,550 WC) so that’s 24,225 RC + 4,675 WC)
Edit: And considering how much it bothers me when I get killed in PVP (especially by someone I know), it makes it that much harder to want to bother. ._.
A Treasure Hunt
When the only stuff you need can be gotten from HM EC raids (which you’re not a part of) or Nightmare Pilgrim (who can only be done every 5 days as it is), you get to a point where you become a bit stuck. If only because people keep making rumors from the Wonderous/Wondrous Egg, you can’t level alts until someone is feeling better, and you are waiting for Customer Service to respond back about your Zabrak problem is besides the point.
There may not be a prize (or at least not for you), but sometimes the experience and adventure of something is more than enough–and if there’s one thing I really do enjoy in this game…it’s exploring. So, when I stumbled upon a certain topic by certain people I happen to know and saw a little Treasure Hunt for a prize, I was excited to try as well. It didn’t matter that it was over. It didn’t matter that the prize had been won. Just the little bit of adventure was enough for me.
So, here are the lovely 3 places that needed to be found:
Thank you for the fun~
(as for why the Hoth one is such low quality… My screenshot button was failing so I had to record it)
Datacrons + Disappointment
If you don’t mind not leveling super fast, it doesn’t hurt to go a bit out of your way to get datacrons. The reason I say this is because something I noticed when going back to help people with datacrons…it feels like it takes forever.
If you keep an eye out for where datacrons should be while heading there, it is actually a bit shorter since a turn out of your way and then back to your quests isn’t so crazy as going all over and deeper and then the long ride to a whole other section of a planet (or off it) when you finished it a long time ago.
Regardless, I still like helping, but I’m glad we did it the way we did on our main characters. Going back for some on Amidaia will suck 😛
Now, moving on to the latter part of my subject…I know a lot of people knew I was working very hard to save up for the Zabrak race so I could make Zoara, right?
I hit the 1.5 million so I asked my boyfriend to lend me 150K so I wouldn’t be completely poor. He did as he was excited too. I buy the race, I delete place-holder Zoara, I go to make permanent Zoara and there’s a problem. I noticed that when you had something special unlocked with Twi’lek, there were little yellow lines (along with the text being a glowy yellow with a little shield icon) where the unlocked stuff were–these were not there for Zabrak. I shrugged it off and went through the skins but nothing. No pink skin at all.
So, I hop on the Imperial side and check classes that normally do not have Zabrak as an option (Like Imperial Agent). They have just the Republic options. When I check a class that normally does (for example, Sith Warrior), they just have the Imperial options. It’s…very odd. I had no issues with unlocking Twi’lek, but Zabrak seems to be a mess. I went and sent a bug report in 🙁
I just hope they can fix it ASAP or like activate something in the background for it rather than having to wait for a patch…because next patch, the Vendor is being removed and I’ll feel…really bad. Just need to hope there’s some support around to answer my ticket today 🙁 Shall be online most of the day praying for it, really~
A nice pick-me-up :)
Well, a friend surprised me with a nice gift–an Advanced Mettle Mod 26! 😀 Which was the last one I needed! I am now in all Rank 61’s/26’s with the exception of my Hilt (which I will need to do HM EC for). I’m just…so happy <3 It is nice to be so close! Edit: And I may be going to Nightmare Pilgrim on Tuesday! Double yay! *HOPES FOR BOOTS* And then I'll just need to beat him one more time for my Aratech Coral! 😀
Are you serious?
1. Just because I do something you think is stupid does not mean “there’s something wrong with” me.
2. If I say no, which is rare because I have a lot of trouble doing so, chances are, that means I really don’t feel up to something. Do not try to guilt trip me about it!
I am so sick of people being jerks because I like pets or they think something is silly or who constantly trying to guilt trip me to go to something I’m not feeling up to doing. Seriously 🙁 Especially when I’m not even feeling well.
Too many flashpoints/operations X__x
So today, besides contacting customer support (as seen below), I put up my Advanced Black-Green Hawkeye Crystal (if you’re in Corellian Run, do think of buying it >>) and then decided I’d go Area Quest hunting! …except I was all alone so I got bored 🙁 not to mention there are actually no good guides for Area Quests surprisingly. I remember when I found that random one in Hoth and I can’t even find that one anywhere.
I’d probably make an Area Quest guide myself, but it’d require so much backtracking and all my other characters are just really low right now 🙁 But, if I can afford my Trooper, maybe I can make one then? (Plus an Imperial one with my Bounty Hunter)
Anyway, I was dragged off to an Operation by Stoic…then a flashpoint then a flashpoint by some friends in my current guild then another flashpoint by Stoic and another and omgsomany. I really hate repeating things >> but at least it was with people I like.
I may start joining in with those few people on Sunday to try doing HM EC. While I don’t mind dying for learning, I don’t know if I can afford repairs 🙁 credits allude me. But at least I feel wanted.
Moving on, I am now helping a friend with datacrons so yay~
Yay codexes!
So, after seeing a friend with Rakghoul’s Bane, a title you get from Kaon, and continuing to not have it yet myself, I sent a ticket to Customer Service. They were very nice 🙂 And I got several Codex-y things fixed.
Ones fixed:
-Raghoul’s Bane
-Terentatek
-Sand Rot (Consular)
-The First Son (Consular)
😀
They also mentioned that the following are not supposed to be gotten so I am guessing they have been removed:
-Paladin of House Organa
-Hero of Gorinth Canyon
-Master of the Burning Way
-Liberator of Corellia
-Ice Wars Veteran
-Shadow Hunter
-Venom Drinker
I will probably remove these from my list then. Less confusing that way! Unless someone thinks maybe they should stay? @-@
I may do one more ticket with a full list, but for now, just excited to have some fixed. If you are also missing some codexes that you should have, do contact Customer Service about them and include the specific character and what codexes they are 🙂 And they should be able to help!
Rumors + Other Servers
So, the Wonderous/Wondrous Egg search has continued, unsurprisingly. As usual, most people are just kind of trolling or mixing the eggs up…or pointing to things that lack proof to begin with.
A Reddit Page was recently made to try and figure out more about it. There are two answers that could end up being helpful, but of course, one already ended as soon as it started and the other is pretty iffy too.
For now, I did make a Republic character on Canderous Ordo and got her to level 7. Tempted to do the same on the Imperial side, but doing it on one side was annoying enough and…well, both Hutta and Korriban aren’t much fun 🙁 Upon asking, I did not receive any information and there is not one currently on the GTN so… for now, just will try and stay hopeful.
However, I will say…asking doesn’t mean someone is lazy. Theories and ideas can be thought up through questions and confirmations…well, the more people trying, the quicker a confirmation can happen and more confirmations are always welcomed, right? Just… never think because someone is asking, they’re not trying anything themselves. That is just silly.
