I finished the quest on TCand Live with only failing once on each one. I do not see that as too much. What are you having trouble with, and have you read the guide?






Yeah I have read the guide. I've been trying exactly what other people have done and passed and i continue to fail. Thats why i'm so frustrated. I'd be ok if passing meant you had to wait 24 hrs to advance to the next performance but i mean i have spent 7days waiting to do the quest and *maybe* 10 min acutally dancing in this thing.

24 hours seems a bit extreme for something that takes about 5 minutes to try. I'm not entirely opposed to having to wait to try again, but a more reasonable time would be appreciated.

The only way I could grudingly agree that 24 hours is acceptable is if the audience gave all the required information every time. If they tell me exactly what they want to see and what they don't want to see, then it's my own fault if I mess it up and I should have to wait a little bit before trying again. However, this is not the case - the randomness of the entire audience's usefulness is causing most of the problems, in my opinion.






Oh I agree so much. The great mystery of the galaxy, becoming a Jedi, is laid out in exhausting detail and is no mystery at all. Yet learning a new dance...


I wantthe questto be a challange. I just don't what the challange to be "Can you manage to talk to 15+ NPC in 120 seconds and beat the Lag!"


They had professional dancers employed to motion capture the dances. Why not interview them and find out what kind of challenges they ran across in their careers to maybe get some seeds for ideas? I mean, not a direct conversion of their experience but by talking to the professional dancer and applying their experiences to the SWG universe, it may spark the idea that generates something cool and exciting.


The whole possibility of entertainers as spies is missed. I would really like to see entertainer missions be useful and maybe, just maybe, if the entertainer does a really good job. Some information may be revealed such as the time and date of the next event such as adroid invasion of a NPC city by the Trade Federation.


If the entertainer follows through, then maybe they could prevent it.

The quest was really easy for me.

My master dancer is also a master ID. If these professions are going to just be boiled down into timers to wait and wait and wait, what's the point? I can understand the purpose of the timers, but the way they are right now is down right rediculous. 24 hours for a failure, and it's so random that you might as well roll dice, so how is this suppose to be 'fun new content'? Lowering the timer or removing them completely for failures would make more sense. As others have suggested, timers between differant performances would be a lot more reasonable.
