Well to get my master rank in Commando it cost me almost 650k credits to teach people. I had to pay one guy 50k a skill teach to get him to give me the time. It sucked.






I always wondered about this.. I have been capped with in 2 days of mastering a profession everytime I have mastered one since launch for free... How do you need to pay for AP?


I find it was very easy to get AP - people are always looking for basic skills in one area or another. If you have a rare profession you get to teach lots of people as well. (have done 29 professions....)

It depends where you play and how you play. It usually took me a couple weeks to a month to re-cap my AP, and that's with volunteering to train people who needed it. Part of it also has to do with what profession you are. As a commando right now, there aren't many people who need novice boxes trained (since its dirt cheap to find a NPC trainer) and virtually no commandos in training (and due to the absence of higher level commandos, they usually don't bother finding one to train them).


As a solo player I tend to be in secluded areas a lot, and rarely am in situations where I'm constantly training people. If you hang out in cities all the time or have a guild, I could see how it might be faster, but for the lone wanderer, AP is evil. I had to pay someone to get the AP I needed for MTKA and MBE. The rate was just too slow otherwise.

i tended to manage to get the ap i needed for a master box befre i needed it, only once was i unable to get the ap beofre i qualified for the master box and on that occasion 5 minutes of sohuting i was teahcing artisan 4444 in mos eisley resulted in the remianing zp i needed (jst over 200 i think), ive enver understood why people paid for ap, if you go to a fairly crowded pace and advertise what you cna train youll find poepl who are in ened of skills, and evne th eodd genrous person with a few free points and som xp they've no use for

What I don't understand is how things went from teaching people skills because it was cheaper to get a player to train you than to goto the NPC Trainer. To the attitude that you had to pay someone so you can teach them.


I guess maybe I'm old-school, the last time I looked it was the student that paid for education. Not the Teachers paying the students to learn.

wow, they finally fixed some things. Course they didn't add any content, so there's no reason for me to come back. All they did was fix things that should have been fixed before the game came out.


We are about to enter Beta IV!!!

Now if they just stop using TC for the internal testing and let me go back to having no life, i can go check the stuff out and die like a real novice commando i am.




Oh wait, i will die like the real 0010 commando i am. hehehehe

Hey...look at it this way:


1) For CURB purposes


2) Stress testing and squashing bugs


Everyone turns out happy in the end, and who knows...maybe some bug-free stuff...

Have you guys thought of this? The version number of the game is no longer above 1. 0.17 something. I'm usually not one for trying to guess what those guys are doing, but are they gonna re-release the game as a 1.0 version someday? Along with the CU? They've hired all these new ppl, they feverously working on redoing in the combat system beta-before-realse style. There taking all the frustrating elements out of the game i.e. shuttle waits, Appreticeship points.... Sounds like something good is coming to me. Least I can hope, haha.


SWG has one BIG thing going for it. Episode III.
