OMG, doctors heaven! Janta will now drop power crystals. They also drop Janta blood for Docs, and Janta hide for Armorsmiths, DOT knives, and pay 32k credits in an improved job market! Janta's are going to be the biggest hunted thing out there soon I hope

This Wipe is a good thing if it happens within the next Millenia.

Merging all XP into Jedi XP

Right now when you use your lightsaber you get Jedi XP and Lightsaber XP. The new skill trees don't use Lightsaber XP for anything so I'm assuming they arechanging it so you only get Jedi XP.

So that is a bad thing right?

Actually, when I think about it, merging xp means they are adding the lightsaber xp gain with the jedi xp gain.


That is a very good thing.

My issues are;

1) Colour crystals should be craftable, PERIOD. Luke didn't kill 10 thousand Jawas in Shadows of the Empire to find a colour crystal when buildng his sabre, he made and cut his own crystal. The thought that these should be loot items is laughable.


2) Sabre damage right now is totally unacceptable. Why should a second gen sabre do less than half the damage of an average power hammer?An average training sabre shoulddo more damage than the best constructed melee weapod PERIOD.


3) Force Drain is far too powerful. It does not drain Force, but inflicts 50-75% wounds.

Well, as of now (10:35am MST) The server is still up, with the old code, and my dead Jedi butt....so much for this morning. Hopefully they'll get it done today. I've got lots of time to test the changes and fixes.




As far as LS exp going into Jedi Exp.......I'm not sure if I like it. I'm one who believes you shouldn't become a better "swordsman" by healing, or running....these things help yes, but they don't automatically grant you that status....and the lack of LS exp for LS advancement seems an awful lot like that.



On the flip side, if this means what it sounds like it means then OK, I'll take it..as its going to allow me to test the trainers/training of skills....aside from the conversion process.....a little faster. After a day of "grinding" I had only 40k "jedi" exp....so this might help my novice LS butt just a little bit.



As far as Crystal drops increasing....I've already printed that post, so I have a list of what drops them so I can go see if my TKM/Fencer/Novice LS can get one or two power crystals, and some different color crystals. Because once this all goes live, thats exactly the template that will be doing the jedi quests anyway....so we'll see.



Looking forward to the reset....I'onna Starsfire TC1&2

I really hope these resources are VERY good quality so that we don't have to worry about wanting to go find better stuff.......not that it matters much. Why 3 different types of vehicles...wouldn't it be easier to have 3 of the same type?



Not that I'm complaining...just wondering.......oh....


And to repeat everyone else.....Robes? Its hard to fight some of these high end mobs without armor, and to gain Jedi exp we can't wear it.....any word? Not all of us testers are force defenders....or Knights for that matter. I guess I could always buy a set of armor, and get buffed and TKM/fencer teh mobs for crystals, and then redress myself to work on my jedi skills......(but its not the same...boohoo...sniff sniff...lol) Will robes be happening this publish at all?



Also..I now plan on unlocking my jedi once the quests go live....just because this is a whole new side of the game that intrigues me greatly....thank you for this, because I WAS NOT going to grind professions like a madman. (not a powergamer).

I never got both xp so I have no clue what everyone is talking about I've only gotten jedi xp when using the LS except when I dropped all my skills and started working the initiate tree.
