And the game is up!

So, 1.7 is officially out and the game is up. Site is still down though which means you can not buy Cartel Coins right now. Regardless, the new pack is out…

Anyway, as for reputation stuff… There’s 2 Gree Reputation pets. They are both 50K each–there is the Data Core at Newcomer and the Miniature Gray Sacant at Legend. I guess this will take a bit of grinding :/

I haven’t seen any of the other Reputation Vendors yet (kind of on Ilum so…), but going through the overview are the following titles:
Republic Battalion – Hero unlocks Hero of Section X, Legend unlocks The Section Guardian
Republic Space Armada – Hero unlocks Hero of Deep Space, Legend unlocks Hyperspace Legend
The Gree Enclave – Newcomer unlocks Gree Research Assistant, Hero unlocks Honored Silver Acute, and Legend unlocks Perfect Gold Bisector
The Voss – Friend unlocks Honored Voss-Friend, Legend unlocks The Chosen of the Voss

You can gain 12,000 a week… which seems like a lot, but I doubt you can get Legend in a week so I’m scared to think of how much you need total. Not to mention this event is only around for 2 weeks so… :/

but yes, shall update this randomly. Time to work on the pet list.

1.6.3

So, a new patch comes and besides fixes, there’s the inevitable edition of new Cartel Items (plus new discounts and the removal of all the Life Day and Anniversary related stuff).

What really caught my attention though is the Czerka CR-17 Incendia. Why? Ignoring my collectingness, it’s actually because of this:

The protection provided from being knocked off this vehicle is greater than Speeder Piloting III.

I’m not really sure what to think about it, but it makes me feel a little down. Especially as I personally prefer 2 other speeders and for the best protection, I’d have to use that one ๐Ÿ™ It also costs 1,800 Cartel Coins X__x And is a model I know a lot of people have wanted.

Besides that, there’s 3 new armor sets: Sand People Pillager Set, The Sanctified Caretaker Set, and the Malevolent Interrogator Set at 1,440 each and a special Preferred Player’s Pack which has a bundle of stuff. I don’t really care for any of them though.

On the bright side, I found someone to sell me a Flamehair Kowakian Monkey-lizard so I have all the pets again. Yay. Just 10 Skip Tracer items and 2 Blockade Runner items to go now…


flamehairkowakianmonkeylizard
It’s a nice touch how both Monkey-lizards laugh differently when right clicked too.

Also used the Cartel Coins I got from being a subscriber for another chance at the Skip Tracer packs… Got a Red-Orange crystal and a Republic Banner ๐Ÿ™ *sighs*

New Cartel Pack

Skip Tracer Cartel Pack is now out costing 360 like usual. I’m patching (unfortunately didn’t get a chance to patch early like I usually do) I’ve finished patching and will be probably buy some to check it out. I’m expecting pets and knowing my luck, I will probably not get any of them.

I think I’ll just have a nervous breakdown over here :3

Apparently the backflip emote is out and the rare ship pets may be out but we shall see… Also a Holo-Shrub disguise which sounds neat.

12 pets: Desert Nekarr Cat, White Womp Weasel, Black Womp Weasel, Brown Womp Weasel, Killik Drone Larva, Blue-Speckled Gizka, Model Dominion Starfighter, Sub-Zero Mini Probe, Model Liberator Starfighter, Model Redeemer Starfighter, Model Supremacy Starfighter, Flamehair Kowakian Monkey-lizard

obviously, I want any emotes/mounts/moods/pets I haven’t heard about yet though. That’s kind of a given. And then for Cartel stuff I still need… a white crystal, a cyan-blue crystal (that isn’t endurance), and the throne and Meditation chair from the last pack ๐Ÿ™

For reference, the only mount I got was the Longspur Pacer… pets I got–the ones that have pictures and say so in the pet check list, and I didn’t get any titles, emotes, or moods v-v

edit: 2 last boxes…

Box 7:
Fancy Reveler’s Hatwear
Covert Torso Energy Armor

Box 8:

Also from Patch Notes:

After Dreadtooth is defeated, Dreadful Resurgence no longer persists. Dreadful Essence must be used to increase Dreadtooth’s difficulty.
Dreadtooth’s difficulty when he is affected by 3 or more applications of Dreadful Resurgence has been decreased

About the only part that caught my interest ๐Ÿ˜› Time to save up essences and yay for easierness~

Warning: Ability Limits Exist

So, a while ago, I made a post trying to figure out why some users could have more pets/vehicles than others.

Today, I received a reply back from the person who inspired the post.

Quoting them momentarily:

Just a follow up.

Received an email from CS which states that pets and vehicles are considered โ€œskillsโ€ once learned.

And SWTOR has a total skill cap including your pets/vehicles/character skills/Legacy skills/etc.

That is the reason why some have more pets/mounts than others who already are at a cap.

Different classes already have different amount of skills but I think the most difference is with legacy unlocks.

Although I was lvl 50 already I purchased for instance all exp boost character perks as well as the general legacy perks.

If ยดthe system counts every โ€œstepโ€ (5) of each exp ladder as an individual passive skill than it is no wonder that I am capped.

Well I have an open ticket since 12-22 to let CS delete 20 vehicles (vendor mounts) and reinstalate those as an item for me to put on the bank. With those 20 slots free I would learn my 8 pets and 6 speeders from the newest cartel packs and have 6 slots left open for the 4 vehicles I still need to collect.

Have fun.

Kwich

That is…pretty awful. Kind of glad I haven’t gotten some of the Legacy stuff now (like the cooldowns or a few other things), however, this puts a huge dent in my plans too. And new skills will be coming with Makeb so… I may end up sending an e-mail to Customer Service and having some of my vehicles turned “off” and putting them in my own bank now. :/ Only keeping limited/no longer around ones “learned” on my character along with a few favorites. As much as I want to collect mounts too, I am a bigger pet person so… ๐Ÿ™ Just really sucks. However, while I haven’t gotten the Dominator’s Throne yet (which I guess is good), I actually would want the Diplomat’s Meditation Throne for the few I’d keep as I really love the flying holocrons and it matches Mari’s dress.

Overall though, I’m…kind of just depressed about this and REALLY paranoid now v-v Will at the very least see if I can learn any information on the cap.

Some Progress on Miisha

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 ๐Ÿ˜€ 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 ๐Ÿ˜€ (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 ๐Ÿ™

Limit of Abilities

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 ๐Ÿ™ And hopefully it can be fixed soon!

More Speedering~

So, I got the rest of the speeders I needed that could be bought T~T Which just leaves:
Ubrikkian War-rider โ€“ 1,000 Ranked Warzone Commendations and Rank 2200 in Ranked Warzones
Avalanche Heavy Tank – NM EC
Praxon Firaxa – NM EC Timed Run
Dominator’s Command Throne – Blockade Runner’s Cartel Pack
Diplomat’s Meditation Chair – Blockade Runner’s Cartel Pack

Can’t be gotten right now:
Korrealis Prince โ€“ From Imperial PVP Vendor on Fleet. Technically, a friend got me one stupid bound-ness. *hopes for a bound remover in the Cartel Shop*

Nice to see the list so much smaller… but the Ubrikkian War-rider still makes me angry ๐Ÿ™ I don’t know how I will ever get that ranking and even though supposedly you will be able to get a rank solo come Season 1, I worry it may not be there anymore… .__.

Speeder Progress continues

So, because of Telanis and Prongs, I now have all speeders under 100K which just leaves the following:
Korrealis Prince โ€“ From Imperial PVP Vendor on Fleet. Technically, a friend got me one stupid bound-ness. *hopes for a bound remover in the Cartel Shop*
Ubrikkian War-rider โ€“ 1,000 Ranked Warzone Commendations and Rank 2200 in Ranked Warzones
Tank Mount – NM EC
Shark Mount – NM EC Timed Run

All mounts that can be bought gotten! Yay!

:( / Edit: T~T <3

There is always something awkward when you want to try and avoid your main character as to not run into someone :/

As it is, I will most likely be filling in for NM EC this upcoming Tuesday evening which just stresses me more EDIT: Looks like it’ll be HM EC! Still makes me nervous though ๐Ÿ™ Note to self: need all 27 armorings except for legs.

.___.

Edit: Eeeee T~T OMGTHANKYOUPRONGSFORTHETHRONEMOUNT:

YAY. …the skirt is kind of broken though. but still! yay!

but yes, speeders to go: Continue reading

Thrones and things~

The throne is under 2 million T~T Yay. Must hope it continues to go lower. Shall continue stalking it.

In the meantime, I’ve mostly been trying to figure out what else to do. Don’t really have a good way to earn credits (I could try reverse engineering some stuff on Amidaia, but nobody is going to do materials for 26’s and I don’t have the stuff to make them) which puts a damper on most of my ideas.

Half-tempted to make more edits and make a suggestion thread but I suck at edits and I’m too shy so ๐Ÿ˜› (edit: broke down and made a suggestion thread)

Anyway, I got a response from Customer Support about those Cartel Coin Cards (REMEMBER, THEY ARE NOT OUT YET AND STILL BEING FINALIZED)… I don’t remember sending them a question though? Maybe it was about the question I asked in the Q&A?

Regardless, what they said:
1. The pet WILL DEPEND on where you buy it. So yes, you can only get the specific pet from the specific vendor. You will not be able to find that pet at any other vendors.

2. Pricing details are unknown right now (although, the original question did mention like 20 dollars so we shall see…)

3. The pet should be shown on the card with the amount.

I shall continue waiting eagerly for the proper announcement when they start showing up in stores T~T

I think I’ll go on the balloon and pull people up to the sandcrawler randomly again.

Oh, and I learned that is actually something called the Firaxan Shark (aka Firaxa) which explains the shark mount. Interesting.

I’m going to hope for a Pink Dolphin throne next.
