Eeee T~T

Dec24

First of all, Happy Christmas Eve to everyone! …or if you’re seeing this on the 25th, MERRY CHRISTMAS! Or if you don’t celebrate Christmas, Happy Holidays/Happy Life Day! 😀

I just wanted to say Thank you to everyone who gave Holiday wishes T~T And Thank you Mirin for the lovely gifts! <3 I love them muchly 😀 *PUTTING ON HER NEW EARPIECE NOW* YAY FOR PET CARE PACKAGES <3 Wriggles has decided to celebrate in various ways:

wrigglesreindeerwriggleslifeday

And now, to work on Cellina a bit too 😀 and then head to bed to wake up to gifts from Santa! yay! <3 ...or whoever gives gifts for Life Day? (Dear Devs, I would really really really really really really really really really like a Ubrikki War Rider (because PVP is stupid) and/or a Wonderous Egg, please. Love, Mari. P.S. I will also be happy with credits of any amount because I suck at earning them and then I can run around fleet throwing credits and stuff at people. P.P.S. A Princess title or light pink version of Elegant Outfit = also acceptable. :P)

Some Progress on Miisha

Dec23

Decided to work on Miisha with Mar-gon’s DPS Vanguard yesterday. Originally, we had planned to level them with a friend of his…but let’s just say that didn’t end well.

Thanks to Telanis, Miisha now has the Ice Scrabbler Jerky recipe 😀 so once she gets up more, hopefully I will be able to hand those out randomly to pet collectors <3 Anyway, we finished up Taris and will probably skip the bonus series there... Taris and Balmorra are our least favorite planets so... less time we need to spend there, the better. In the meantime, I did buy some Grade 7 Ship Parts as they have gone down a lot (all were under 100K)... Only one I still need is the Laser Cannons, but I didn’t see that up sadly. It costs 500 Fleet Commendations to get (or is 550 Cartel Coins for the Offensive Bundle). Found one on the GTN 😀 (also for under 100K) Yay!

Diplomat’s Meditation Chair is staying anywhere between 2.5 million to 3 million. Similarly, the Dominator’s Command Throne is staying around 1.5-2 million so I’ll need to just save up for those as it doesn’t look like they will drop anytime soon.

The White Crystal’s price doesn’t really surprise me considering it was originally 2.5 million to get one anyway. But yeah, chances are I never will get one.

Stupid expensive things 🙁

Malgus’ New Power

Dec21

So, apparently, Darth Malgus can bring people back from the dead.

More or less, I was helping Duhtect with his random HM Flashpoint and Mar-gon came along too 😀 So, we just needed a tank and we got a pop right away, but that tank never accepted… second pop and we went and it began!

unfortunately, our tank wasn’t too great. Mar-gon and Duhtect were constantly taking aggro and even I took it once or twice. Regardless, he tried really hard!

Anyway, we got to Darth Malgus and I asked if we were doing the pillars or stairs strategy. He says pillars so I headed over and got myself situated…only for our tank to be pushed off the bridge to his death 😐

We get the *NAME* HAS BEEN DEFEATED message and figure we can just try and 3-man it or something since Duhtect was on his Vanguard….when suddenly, the tank reappears. It was his turn first for the whole “face Malgus alone” junk and it RESURRECTED HIM FROM THE DEAD.

You learn something new everyday.

Anniversary Picture!

Dec21

Sure, we TECHNICALLY started playing SWTOR the first day of Early Start (and even got in the first batch) and TECHNICALLY our real life dating anniversary is the 20th, but I had fun taking a picture anyway for their anniversary photo thingys 😛

SUPER PARTY AWESOME TIME YAY

SUPER PARTY AWESOME TIME YAY

EEEEEE :D

Dec21

Duhtect surprised me with a Tundra Nekarr Cat! T~T WHICH MEANS MY PET COLLECTION IS COMPLETE AGAIN. YAAAAY.

And now we’re doing HM TfB @-@ I got gloves and all the HM Survived by titles so yay! Too bad it’s not a DKP run though–maybe I could’ve used some of it already. 😛 But oh well, at least I got something.

And then we even went to Dreadtooth 😀 YAYNESS. And Tourch was nice and gave me the mask so now I have part of the puzzle! WOO.

And even my boyfriend got to come <3

Limit of Abilities

Dec20

I’ve seen this once on the forum and mentioned a few times to me on here about users having their amount of mounts and pets cut off. The number seems to vary as to where, but more or less, when they try to learn a new pet or mount, the learning happens and the item/pet disappears, but the respective item/pet does not actually appear in the abilities tab.

Essentially, you have just lost the item you used. Customer Service is usually able to give the item back to you if this happens, but this doesn’t fix the problem long-term as all you can do is hold the item until this is fixed.

I have yet to have this problem and currently have 40 Pets and 59 Mounts (The Mounts total is including Rocket Boots). However, with some theories over this being a combined total of the 2, I wondered…what if it’s a combination of all abilities? I’ve found Sages have less abilities than a lot of other classes, which made setting up my bars from them much easier than with my Agent.

So, firstly, a survey:

Ability-wise:
Sage: 18
Consular: 23
General: 8
Legacy: 14 (All Social, All Valor, All Priority Transport Passes, Mail Droid, Repair Droid, Legacy Lightning Storm, Legacy Project)
Vehicles: 59
Pets: 40
Total: 162.

To compare on non-vanity abilities, my level 41 Operative:
Imperial Agent: 28
Operative: 20

As you can see, not only more in the original class–but the advancement as well.

Not to mention, if you have a Companion out, you also have a bonus 20 Abilities added on which would bring my Sage’s total to 182.

Regardless, I don’t see anything missing. So, if anyone feels like helping, please vote on the poll and leave a comment saying:
1. If this has happened to you before
2. How many abilities you have in each section.

Maybe we can at least figure something out 🙁 And hopefully it can be fixed soon!

Stalking Developer Tracker for Makeb Details :D

Dec19

So if you usually do not check out the Dev Tracker, I’d recommend doing so 😛

Lately, there’s been lots of interesting tidbits about Makeb and things to come like more on the story of it.

On Talent Trees:

We know you’re all very interested to hear about how the new level cap is going to affect your class, and I wanted to share a little information about the upcoming changes with you. As part of the new content, every skill tree will be expanding and you can expect significant updates. Players will earn a new skill point with each level, and new skills will be available in each skill tree. Additionally, a new active ability will be introduced for each Advanced Class. We’ll have more details about many aspects of Rise of the Hutt Cartel as we approach launch, so keep your eyes on the website and dev tracker!

Part of me is excited and part of me not so much 😛 I wonder what the skill will be… and then I’d have to make room on my bars and yeah @-@ Just lots to do. Though, if I could add points to my existing skills (in case the new one sucks, I see no need for it, or just have some to spare), I’d probably just put another point in Preservation. Other possibilities (though, unlikely) are Egress (although, I’d only see this helpful in PVP), Jedi Resistance, and maybe some of the Force Lift quickness…. I guess we’ll just have to see though. Although, I’m mostly worried about how to organize my bars. And I feel like I may need to save my tree just in case.

For people worried about gear:

! While we can’t address every concern raised in this thread right now, we can reassure you that the gear you’ve obtained in our current endgame will continue to be relevant after the expansion is released, and it will provide a great bootstrap into the higher-level content offered by Rise of the Hutt Cartel. You won’t be replacing your Dread Guard gear with gear you pick up as you level, and thanks to improvements in the way item power is calculated, we won’t be handing out any entry-level gear at the new level cap.

To be honest, I’m more wondering how things may scale, if they scale at all. Will HM Flash Points and current Operations still be 50? Honestly, I’d prefer it that way (and it’d probably be more fair to people who haven’t hit 50 yet), but I’m sure a lot of people will complain about that… still, it’d make Vanity Item questing less torturous. Stupid drop rates.

On what Makeb has to offer:

To give you all a better idea of Makeb’s scope, it’s a planet of equal size to our larger planets and it contains a variety of areas – sprawling mesas, underground caverns, garden estates, and more. It introduces faction-specific storylines, new Heroic missions and bosses, repeatable mission series, and new Datacrons! The 5 new levels will occupy players for a fair amount of time, and there’s plenty of content to get you there (including a lot of stuff tucked away for the explorers out there). Keep in mind that this announcement is just the start – as we approach Makeb’s launch, you’ll see more details about the content coming with Rise of the Hutt Cartel!

OMGNEWDATACRONSYAY. DATACRONS 😀 DATACRONS. YAY FOR MORE DATACRONS. Oh and story and stuff :3 and probably new codexes~ And Garden Estates sound pretty. Especially if I can have one.

Regardless, if I wasn’t excited before, I am even more so now <3 Just hope more information (and a specific date) comes out soon. I WILL BE UP IMMEDIATELY THAT MORNING TO GET IN AS QUICKLY AS POSSIBLE 😀 SO EXCITED OMG.

Spreading Joy and Pets~

Dec19

So, as what I have usually been doing lately, I went and said in Trade Chat that I was looking for a Tundra Nekarr Cat.

This sparked some pet discussion in general chat of some people looking to buy them and asking about them. And being the pet guide writer on the forum, I WAS ON THIS LIKE NOBODY’S BUSINESS. XP I may or may not have a pet signal.

Thus, after answering lots of questions, I invited this person to group as to not further bother General Chat. We went through all the pets explaining how to get them 😀 And what pets he can get at level 25 and then to start him in his journey on Pethood, I gave him some of the extras I have been holding for this very kind of purpose (and to help people in the Pet Channel)!

He also joined the Pet Channel 😀 Then I showed him how to hatch an Unusual Egg!

YAY FOR MORE PET COLLECTORS! <3
