The Foundry finished

So, I was playing on Cellina and we decided to try the Foundry again… after forever (we had several people rejecting the group), we finally got a group together!

HK-47 is such a horrible fight. Seriously. Thankfully, the tank and DPS were very nice about how much I suck as an operative. Barely had to heal at all during the fight with Revan besides his rockfall attack which was kind of sad with how evil HK was. …regardless, I’m glad as I’d rather not see that fight again. Getting HK-51 on Amidaia won’t be very fun.

The Foundry definitely feels harder to me than Maelstrom does which I find interesting. @-@ Although, more frustrating if anything. At least it’s done now so we shall be focusing on Hoth!

Anyway, Happy Thanksgiving to everyone who celebrates it :3 <3

Pets and Packs

Nov21

So, with another Data Dump comes a bit of info.

Besides the mention of the Life Day Pack which I expect to be the next Cartel Pack, there is a new pet mention:
abl.itm.vanity_pet.bird.crested_orokeet
abl.itm.vanity_pet.bird.crested_orokeet/2/0
abl.itm.vanity_pet.bird.crested_orokeet/2/1

The Crested Orokeet is most likely an Orokeet with a special ornament of some kind and I wouldn’t be surprised if it’s in the box.

It’d be the first alternate version of a pet though so that will be interesting.

Unfortunately, the Cartel Market is down on the test server 🙁 so no trying it out… BUT THAT MAKES IT ALL THE MORE SUSPICIOUS…

Livestreaming :P`

Nov21

So after streaming a weird glitch, I have decided to also stream myself sucking miserably at space missions 😛 And whatever other junk I try.

I even talk a little bit while Prongs lets me know I am horrible at them! 😛 (I’m so sorry)

Edit: Done unless a queue pops up @-@ Then I shall start it again.

yeeeeeeees

Nov20

😀 😀 😀

And with that, all pets gotten again <3 Just 2 mounts + the Rifle to go Cartel-wise but the important part is done! ...unless there's more pets that nobody has gotten yet or someone hasn't mentioned and that thought stresses me 🙁

1.6 up on PTS

Nov20

Well…that was fast. Was surprised to see that appear in my inbox! Sadly, no transfers again :/ Regardless, this is the new PVP Warzone–Ancient Hypergates and new space missions…the new space missions sound scary 🙁 Anyway, here’s some highlights from the Patch notes!:

Added a new Level 50 “Introduction to Group Finder” mission to the Daily Mission Terminal on the Republic and Imperial Fleets. This will be granted when players complete the Advanced Gear mission for their Class.

I kind of hope we can do this~ I like new quests and I’m sad when I can’t do a new quest because it’s limited to a lower level :/

Increased Black Hole Commendations awarded by Story Mode Operations in Group Finder from 5 to 10.

I’m sure people will be excited about this. I would be if I didn’t hate dailies with a passion.

Added a new Level 50 “Advanced Gear” mission for each Class to the Daily Mission Terminal on the Imperial and Republic Fleets.

More quests <3

Tionese gear available from the Tionese vendor no longer costs Tionese Crystals, and their commendation costs have been reduced for most items.

…but I have so many crystals 🙁

Ancient Artifact Storage Boxes can now be purchased for 25 Tionese Crystals from all Tionese vendors.

OMG T~T *HOPES FOR CZERKA CRATE-O-MATIC IN ONE*

Highlights
Ancient Hypergate, a new Warzone, is available for play! Travel to an ancient ruin built around a Gree Hypergate and battle to control the precious lost technology for your faction.
New incredibly challenging Weekly [HEROIC] Space Combat missions are available!
All new Grade 7 Artifact Quality Starship Upgrades are now available

1. Yay…. 😐 I hate PVP ._. and this one encourages a death match. Talk about unfun for healers.

2. … 🙁 I’m so bad at space missions.

3. I wonder if this means I don’t need fleet commendations now? I guess I shall see.

Regardless, Test server is done patching so time to check it out :3 Shall edit with stuff~

Edit: At the fleet vendor, there’s the finally Grade 7 Ship stuff:
Blast Condensor – Beam Generator – 500 Fleet Commendations
Durasteel Armor – Ship Armor – 500 Fleet Commendations
Laser Cannons – Beam Charger – 500 Fleet Commendations

Then there’s 2 schematics for Cybertechs (requires 400) for 700 Fleet Commendations each. Concussion Missile Magazine and the Deflector Shield.

Got mail about the Advanced Gear mission… gave me a use item to talk to someone on Carrick Station and gave me the new game rule: Advanced Gear. Had to speak to Master Zua, the Tionese vendor for Consulars. Got 99 Tionese Commendations as a reward.

Opened up a bunch of the Ancient Artifact Boxes… no crate, but I think if I did get it on the Test Server, I’d cry. I did manage to get 2 inheritance kits though (Main Hand and Chest).

Was able to get the Introduction to Ground Finder quest… requires me to complete 1 Random HM flashpoint using it.

Suddenly got another mail which was about the finishing the Advanced gear mission and the Group finder thing… but I already got the mission (which using the item told me, though, it was still consumed). Also received a Black Hole commendation,.

Anyway, queued for PVP (and PVE I guess to see the reward for the quest)… shall see what happens. Gonna try doing the space missions… can’t find where to buy space stuff with BH Commendations though :/

There’s 6 new Space Missions I believe… gonna go fail miserably.

Edit 2: Well, that didn’t go well…got greeted by a black screen (although, could see some stuff at the borders)… :/ Would submit a bug report, but I can’t see anything so… shall close the game for now and try again later @-@

Progress list

Nov20

Gear – No progress whatsoever and with TfB ruined for me and EC still making me feel iffy, I’m not sure how progress will ever be made. :/

Cartel Market – Down to 2 Mounts (Lhosan Manta, Throne) and 1 Pet (Monkey-lizard) but thanks to people, I should hopefully just have the throne left… Would also like the Rangehunter EE-1 Carbine Rifle. And semi-tempted to get pink lightsabers for all characters due to early pink lightsabers.

Codexes – NM EC and Dreadtooth. Stupid NM EC and stupid Dreadtooth ._.

General Mount List – …still a giant pile of failure. Still need EC HM mount…and EC NM mount… and Ranked PVP Mount 🙁

and pretty much everything on the collecting list ._.

Cartel Packness~

Nov19

So, my boyfriend let me get a few more Cartel Packs. They all failed miserably as per usual, but rare items for those curious:

1. Satele Shan Holo Statue
2. Trailblazer’s Helmet
3. Slate Mouse Horranth
4. Mountain Lizardbat
5-6. 2x Ball Toss
7. Low Atmosphere Miniprobe
8. Rendili Nightshade
9-11. 3x Pink-Purple Crystals (Endurance, Expertise/PVP, and Crit)
12. Spy-Master’s Upper Body Armor (Top and Gloves)
13. The Cartel Collector Title
14. Ubrikki Sand Devil

*sighs*

At this rate, I may need that 4th storage 🙁 not that I can afford it (and I feel the Cartel Coin price is overpriced) though, if I had a million, I’d probably rather put it towards other stuff…and then I’ll run out of inventory and bleh X__x

Adventures in Customer Service :P

Nov19

So, after trying for 2 days, I finally got in touch with Customer Service today! Of course, they had to forward me to someone else and then I was on hold again for like an hour…but then another person helped me and just a few clicks and done! The cartel coins I was supposed to get this month for my subscription renewing were there :3 So I bought a Crime Lord box and a Black Market box (couldn’t afford any others) and got the following rare items:
1. Slate Mouse Horranth
2. Max-Tac Precision Rifle
3. Tythonian Force-Master’s Lightsaber – My boyfriend claimed this immediately. 😛

Of course, I ran into ANOTHER glitch upon logging in… my account was suddenly free to play 😐 Upon logging out and back in, my account was back to “normal”, but I had to re-slot everything :/ Also, all items that were given through mail were gone like my Taun Fawn and Minimech CE and Tauntaun Ram and PTS titles and etc. which was very odd considering you’re not supposed to lose anything when going Preferred or Free to Play. Thankfully, all of the things you would receive in mail were re-sent to me…which I then took everything out and re-did it, but very very odd. I sent a bug report so hopefully that gets fixed as I had a heart attack twice over it >_> I’m still worried I may be missing something :/

On the bright side, I did finally get my Heroes’ Banner because of this:

Translation: Galactic Hero

Also, Thank you Telanis for the statue T~T I sent your rifle! <3 (oh, and I made this suggestion thread…timing how long until someone tells me off for it :/ )

Edit: oh and I played with some of the voiced emotes. As a quick note, they apparently have a far range on where they can be heard (I accidentally annoyed the fleet T__T) and some obviously still need to be voiced (And thus, in whatever section(s) you have emotes to be listed, it’ll say [Wordless *EMOTE* – Actor to improvise])

Thank you!

Nov18

Just a big Thank you to everyone who has helped with the Cartel Market T~T You guys are awesome. I’m down to just the Gizka (although, someone said they may give me one) and the Monkey-lizard now so at least I have most out of the way 🙂

Unfortunately, I can’t spend too much time looking for them (and I can’t afford them either, obviously) as I think I caught a cold yesterday and have a giant headache at the moment >> But if I feel better, hopefully I can pop on and stuff… I probably still will pop-on a little anyway.

But yes, Thank you all again T~T It was such a nice surprise to be greeted with when I logged on last night.

Edit: GIZKA SURPRISE YAY T~T Just the Monkey-lizard to go!

Edit 2: MONKEY LIZARD SURPRISE. When it unbinds tomorrow anyway hopefully. Yaaaaaaaay <3 Edit 3: Mount-wise: Lhosan Manta + Throne to go

Pictures and Rumors

Nov17

So, I finally updated the trade page with pictures~ Yay :3

But now, onto rumors!

Current rumor is that if you beat NM EC within 2 hours, that is how you get the pet…and of course, rumors that it is the Wonderous Egg are still circulating. I kind of hope this isn’t true as I really am not fond of the rare pets… too many people who want them just to show off and boost their ego :/ But I guess we’ll have to see.

Moving on, I saw a nice gold tiara/circlet thingy… unfortunately, I couldn’t inspect them (every time I tried to, even though they were next to me, it kept showing my gear) and my screenshots were acting up after getting the pictures for the trade list… 🙁 Wish I could try and find it, but not much to go on.. and the person never responded to my whisper either 🙁
