Thanks and yeah I saw those, was just wondering if anything new was found. Major thing I am hoping for is a nice pistol drop, have a max damage kryat scatter atm, but anything newer would be realy nice as well.

Sounds promising, in the test center has anyone seen a decrease in bugged missions though? I had a long streak of successful NPC missions while grinding my BH profession but the last 10 i have pulled I have only killed 2-3 of my marks and several of the missions have no mark or the mark is in a tree or a rock. Right now I had some time to kill and fired up my laptop during lunch to get some more of the needed BH XP and sure enough, out on Dathomir (Intrepid server, term from talus) theres a mark standing in a tree. DANGIT.

Now I got a question....
Is it being said that novice BH's won't be given missions from the terminals to fight these high level NPC loot droppers or that they can but will surely die in trying? I'm planning on starting another BH toon on Eclipse & I really got to know.

to get a mark out of a tree or rock, drag some other mob next to the area. do an area attack, it should agro the mark out of the obstruction.
note: do not area attack around groups of rancors.

Tree or rock... drop a camp on that area and the terrain will change and your mark will be attackable. You newer guys have it easier now with missions being substantially less buggy, this used to be part of bounty hunting 101. 
Out of about 30 of the new missions I had none that were bugged.

Is there a way to "copy" other servers to a test center? I play on Starsider and would like to test the new publishes, but don't have time to play the characters I have and build a new one just for testing.

another tip that works is, use a camp. By using a camp, it clears the trees and rocks away, but will leave the npc right in your camp =)

This is a MMO. The data about your character is on the server at SOE, along with all other players. You cannot get your personal test center.
SOE takes copies of live servers from time to time and puts them on a TC server. Currently a copy of Bria is running on Test Center, so if you had a Bria toon at the time they took the copy, that toon will be available for you on Test Center. If you havent had a Bria toon, you have to start a new one.
From time to time there will also be "blue frogs" on Test Center, little terminals that allow you to train skills without having to grind the necessary xp, allowing a new toon to go from nothing to MBH / MCM / Pistoleer 0004 in about 5 mins of menu clicking. Currently no blue frogs are enabled.
