Thunderheart, can you please give us some status on what's being done about missions not paying after they are completed? The lair disappears, XP is given for the lair, the waypoint remains, but no money is given. You have to abort the mission to move on. Very annoying, especially when it happens 4-5, even 6 times in a ROW.
Thanks,
Neato

There is a bug Im presuming in game that everyone has complained about, but Ill tell you just in case. The missions on Dantooine dont always pay out. And I still get thrown from my bike. I don't know if its missions on all planets but I play on Dantooine alot and alot of times you kill the lair and the mission still is open. And you dont get paid so I have to delete it.
Thanks for your time,

1. I can't group with my pets, I get the message you have invited but the pet doesn't join me. I'm the only person in the group and the pet is stood right next to me.
2. Missions are still not giving out rewards, you can destroy all the mobs then the lair, and the mission remains active and no reward is given. Happens around 50% of the time on Naboo.
3. Can we have a daily bug thread for the Live servers? This could include known issues that we know are being looked into. The mission reward bug has been happening for a couple of weeks, but I don't if you are aware of it or not. DO NOT suggest thatI report bugs using the holocron, for all I know they just go straight into the bin.

This has been reported many times over the past few weeks, personally and bya few others through the in-game /bug process. A recent visit to other Professional forums has revealed that it is NOT server specific, nor is it only afficting Dantooine. However Dant. does seem to be primarily effected.
A word that this has been noted and a fix isbeing evaluatedwill go a long way for customer satisfaction.

I'll throw a concern out there that I have not been able to find posted elsewhere.
There are a number of players who currently engage in the practice of running a macro to target/attack/loot/rinse/repeat very low level MoBs that have static spawn points in cities. This is, on the surface, a fairly harmless practice, but it has been a source of debate among many of the players I know.
The problem as I see it is that this method is drawing in about 100k credits per day per player performing this act. This may not seem like much, but muliplying that by the number of players camping these spawn points and you have a lot of money flooding into the ecconomy. The effort/reward ratio here is pretty low too, so I would imagine that this is a practice that those who sell credits on eBay would latch on to.
The solution is fairly simple, at least as I understand the behind the scenes mechanics of the game. Either spread these spawns out so that the MoBs do not appear in a cluster, or make the point spawn only one NPC with a longer delay inbetween respawns. If the spawn does not generate NPCs at a high enough rate to be worth while then people will abandon the practice. Any thoughts? Can this fix be implemented?

How is it in PvP all Professions get a 75% reduction in damage.. But the Combat Medic?
Combat Medics have pretty much ruined PvP for most people in the game. If you ask anyone that will NOT PvP at all, why they dont do it. I would be willing to bet 80% or better will say Cause of CM's.
When You can drop a group of 10+ people in about 30 sec. It totally ruins a perfectly good PvP battle.
I can think of several battles that I was having a ball, (even if I was on the loosing side). Untill 1 CM pops a Mind Poison/Disease grenade in the mix and drops everyone standing in less that 20-30 sec, From 80m away at that!
From all that I have read I have never seen anything about balancing CM's. Its always Rifleman... Comandos... BH... Truthfully I dont mind those professions and can deal with them. They get the 75% reduction in damage just like everyone else.
And I already know someoene will say well... The combat rebalance is coming.... In all the notes ive seen about that not one mention to how CM's are gonna be balanced.
I for 1 will not be participating in any PvP Unless I know for sure No CM's are gonna ruin the day.

You also need to add under bugs that when you have an animal almost dead from alair sometimes it jumps over 100 meters away and u have to go chase it down to kill it expecially if have a melee fighting character.
