Thread: October 9th Information
My list as yet:
Losing /maskscent when combat is intiated; considering that almost all mobsare social 'now' this is a death sentance for any solo hunters.
Still no word on the BE's aggro problem, other than it exhists.
Quests that lock you in a state where you can not enguage in combat, or conversation, resulting in your having to log out.
Armor with no effectiveness and detrimental to use.
Weapons loosing AP and effectiveness.
- I do give the Devs Credit when they Do things Right...

I'm guessing the issues with Tortors now being social was a stealth Nerf that is 'working as intended'?
No mention in issues you have QA looking into it
A similar Issue. The Maimen males know Argos when a Young is attacked(Yavin IV). Bolle Bol on Naboo are now BAF.
/concealshot is worthless now. The target will not argo, but something in the nests will.
Most of these have been metioned.
PvP damage has been reduced ANOTHER 75% suggest reverting back.
AR and AP not working. suggest reverting back
pulling up the radial menu on a pet to call it, it says "store" a a few times even though no pet is out, before it changes to "call". Still seems similar to the call icon not showing up a few times problem we had just prior to this patch.
CH skill not adding in to mission levels. Suggest adding a level "choosing" tab or apply level based on skill pts used/left and/or taking to account size of group to promote "teamwork". Ch's and Medical fields especially hurt by this.
Harvestor rates seem to have doubled.
Pet AI and/or /tellpet is not working properly. Pet attack icon comes up, but pet stands still or runs away while NPC attacks. (This is random and may have been due to server instability)
Active waypoint names do not show in data pad.(ie. blank world icon only)
Palette color changes make some things hard to see.(I do like equipped items showing "reverse" background though) Suggest adding additional complete color schemes.
No longer can "double-click" on a crate in iventory to pop a single item out. Instead it opens a "split" window.
Suggest changing back to normal.

thanx for the heads up q... we do appreciate the feedback from the devs. this has been much better as of late, ive played many mmorpg's and in my opinion this game is still maturing so im not too worried about some of the issues... i know they will all be fixed eventually. ill admit i was a bit bent about yesterdays patch as were many others but on the whole i think you guys are doing a great job. please fix these patch issues and the rest of the proffession issues asap, i really feel bad for the droid engineers especially... i wanted to be one but as most droids are completely useless i gave that idea up :>( but in any case i know you guys and gals are working hard as you can. by the way alot of us would love to see a jabba faction, i know me and alot of the peeps who i know and play this game with got all excited when we saw the mention of the nym recruiter... we were hoping for another faction. ah well perhaps in the future...
by the way... all you lame trolls and flamers... flame away... all i do is ignore ignorance like yours.
I pulled my Probe droid out of my datapad, gave the group command, and he said *low power*.
Do we have to feed/power these all the time, ie the will not autorecharge in the datapad anymore?

I meant Probot... the combat droid.

I just read the "Update Issues Status" thread and got somewhat concerned.
NOWHERE in there are droid engineers stated.
You are aware of that this patch made us useless?
#1 Newly made droid deeds can NOT be tamed. You only get an error message
#2 The customization tool seems to give everyone the whole range of colors no matter if you're novice or master droid engineer.
#3 Customizing a droid works nicely... until you store/call your droid.
- LE-repair, Probot and Surgical droid keep their colors
- No R-model, mouse or power droid keeps the color after store/call
- Considering that fact that I can NOT get new droids (see #1) I can't check the other models for you.
#4 Protocol droid has ONE option when customizing it - GOLD. Even at master there are no other colors.
Ditto. Hi, we DE'splay too. And Chef's, and BH's, and Doc's and ID's, and etc. et al.
Problems I have encountered:
- Display: Curser frequently disappears. I have found this to happen (mostly) when I move in between applications (to check my resource list on Notepad, ALT, Tab). Items still highlight but you cannot see the curser. I'm using the destroyer palette. Note: I do like the new contrast on this palette. The orange makes text much more visible.
- Crafting Tools: All crafting types are visible on one type of tool. I use a weapon, droid, and general crafting tools. When activated, I receive tabs for cloths, general, weapons, structures, food, etc.
- Harvester Power Consumption: Maintenance and power consumption has appeared to increase, but structures still pull the same amount of energy. Is this intended?
The disappearing curser is a major problem and effects game play. It cannot be bypassed without restarting the client. The crafting tool and harvester problem is more of an inconvenience.
Thanks and keep up the good work!
