Thread: BE's we need your help in Aurillia!
...which means, in many cases, hand-holding through content to get to 'glowing status'.
add in a few days to meet the old man.
add in a few encounters with CL75 and CL77 'sith' (which, even with an elite combat skill, will require MORE hand-holding (combat BioE's have a CL of 58ish)).
then head to dath. since the game 'dynamically' spawns mobs according to player traffic, and since the path to and from the village probably has the highest traffic of any zone on dath, an enterprising BioE on the way to the village might have to make a few stops at the cloner.

of course... a BioE needs to be able to ACCESS the village. a mBioE, remember, has a base CL of 17.

Now come on, I make trips to the village everyday on TC. I rarely come across anything that gives me a problem. The best thing to do is figure out a path less traveled. It might take you a bit longer, but hey it's not too bad.
BLAH!!!, lol...Im a dancer and I go there everyday!
Just don't ever slow down or look behind you, lol!
Yeah point taken but can't you just do a few of the new content badges instead like Krayt Dragon slayer or Foe of the Gorax?
Seriously though, we all need help on the content badges, I sat whimpering in the cloner on the vette whilst a jedi mate with avoid incap & all that did it for me & I'm level 80! Also I'm sure the new guide to phase 1 senses said that someone's not got to be FS to craft this stuff, guess I'll find out once I get my schematics cos so far I can't find any naritan BE's at all, let alone glowy ones....
I do think this quest is pretty broken. Requiring Master Medic and Bio-Engineer 0/0/0/4 is out of whack. I doubt many people, if any, have that as a permanent template.

Ask just about any chef you see. Chances are VERY high they have an alt that is a BE or the main babbles enough in BE to make tissues.
The career BE's that became masters long long ago feel a bit disenfranchised by the CURB changes. We'll get over it eventually. Just give us time to work through the hurt feelings. I'm still bummed my CL10 mounts won't be large enough to be trained as mounts. My nooby customers aren't real happy with me, like it's my fault or something. 
(ahem ... *cough*) ... read Lamm's post CAREFULLY ...
He wasn't talking 'bout GOING to the village on a daily basis, he was talking about getting ACCESS to the village and he is right.
My level 30 BE is trying very hard to get glowy now (my main character who was a BE before the CU dropped it in favor of elite combat). She manage to do the warren by herself (er...MYSELF is it?), with only about 4 trips to the cloners. Jabba's ... had to be handheld through the first bit but was able to do the rest solo while grouped with a level 80. I would n't want to do it with a character any LESS than level 30 though.
Finally last night we got the destroy corvette mission - seems there are level 196 super battle droids up there. If they spotted you, it was a one-hit 7000 - 11000 hit and you'd end up back at the starting point. We managed to get past ONE of the SBD's by sending in a pets as well as my BEto die and aggro the SBD and then taking advantage of the almost 5 seconds while he was still distracted to get to the terminal and click it. It took a least 20 attempts. We would, in fact, have been able to do it, if we could have gotten past the 3 SBD's in the engine room. That was impossible - might have been able to be doable with more than 2 of us, but oh well. Where is R2 when you need him anyway 
Anyway ... the point is ... if you aren't already glowy as a BE ... you're going to need a LOT Of help just to GET glowy and to defeat the sith that steal your crystal. It's not so much of a problem for those BE's that are already there of course, but this is one village quest that wasn't really properly thought thru when they changed everything - I'm sure that - like the corvette - it just hasn't been fixed yet.
Mind you, we are promised a crafting upgrade. Maybe the route to jedi lies along a different path for crafters in the future?
