Currently I craft with my alt on Dant and my factories and harvestors are there to. I must say i generally get incapped when visiting these buildings. So i'm not sure how different it will be.

I think this sums up how I feel also. I'll be looking for Recon Armor & a good striker pistol once everything comes back online, as I am a Novice Pistoleer. But I'll have to give up some scout & medic to keep it, as you need two trees in Marksman for Nov Pist.


My question is, why couldn't they make recon armor craftable BEFORE the CU went live?

I'm considering finding a Novice Ranger and setting up a relationship with them. They run my harvesters and I buy their hides, bones, etc. I resell their goods to merchants I know and spread the Ranger's name around.

Then I have something that works in a mutually beneficial relationship that worths with the system instead of fighting it.

I'll still do some of my own harvesting, but why not put someone on it who has a profession built for it?

Here's my story from this morning that I related on the Correspondent's Forum:


A rogue bagaraset (which was about 30m away when I pulled up) used it's ranged attack through my structure factory in incapped me in TWO shots and then deathblowed me before I knew what was going on. The entire encounter lasted TWO seconds.



I guess I'm lucky that I have a combat alt that I can park somewhere to run a solo group for me.

Once I did that, the damage from those same bagarasets dropped from 519 per hit to 72 per hit.

I sure hope every other player who doesn't play this game for the combat aspect has money to throw away on extra accounts like I do.

hmm, So can we still form solo groups with a level 80 combatant to lower the damage we take when we are out servicing harvs?

Yes.
However, my alt was fairly close by so I don't know if there are any kind of range limitations on it.

Ok my story so far....... Everything is gone my vendors houses waypoints factories i hope it is a bug..........



Well if its not then:



Why should i still be a Architect i have one account and one character.


Now i have to by my recourses and sell it at a heavy markup. It was hard before.


If i need credits i cant take any hard missions. I´v have to take 1-3k missions that’s 33.3 missions to get 100k and it takes about 10 mins per mission that’s 5 hours and 30 mins to get 100k. So it will take me about a week off constant playing to make one PA hall (att 3cpu its 175 356cr with no markup). With the constant wakening up in the cloning facility.



And i cant be a rebel any more course i have no armour so if i leave the starport on tat i am dead(happened twice).



And one more thing, can i try for Jedi now or do i have to change my profession.



So no the sky won’t fall on my head, the earth will just swallow me hole

Yes.
I can do it from one machine but the strain on the system is awful.

Its pretty heavy exaggeration to call it suicide for a crafter to leave a city or say they will die the instant they do so.


Combat will be tougher all around. Crafters aren't the only ones who will experience this. Everyone is being nerfed. Before you could get a buff and put on composite armor and most anyone would be fine on any planet. But now even dual master elite combat profs will have a tough time on the advanced worlds.


We'll have to see how it pans out. But I don't think the sky is falling. It didn't fall the last dozen times everyone said it would.







I have an arch with novice brawler which was just to help her out when she was powering and maintaining harvies. But hse seems to get her but kicked on the way to the harvies nowadays. You really need to get a nice combat prof.jsut to maint. your harvies. It may sound like exaggeration. B
ut believe me its true. If you harvest your own resources, you have your work cut out for you for sure.

How did you do it? The other guides and such I have seen on the forum havent worked. Have I just not looked hard enough?

Go toyour mainSWG directory (c:\program files\starwarsgalaxies or whatever)


Create a new file in notepad called: user.cfg (if it already exists, just edit it)

Note: You must set windows to NOT "hide extensions for known file types" or the file will really be named "user.cfg.txt" and won't work


Copy and paste this into the file:


[SwgClient]
allowMultipleInstances=TRUE



Now save the file.

Run the client.


Alt-tab out.

Run the client again.

You'll need fairly beefy hardware too.


Some computer systems just won't be able to handle running 2 copies of SWG.
