Get the required easy as hell badges and bam you unlocked. At this point you start participating in the FS system and get on your way to become a JEDI . Jedi was not meant to be achieved in a day or a week, so for this you'll have to do some work unfortunately for you .

you can laugh as much as you want and you can call me names if you like but the fact is even if I have been here since april I am still way ahead of you because I did not mind doing a little hard work, so either you dont know what the hell is going on in the game for being in it for so long or you just have a learning disability.

I just got a visit from the old man on Yavin 4 this morning. I just logged in, I was on Yavin 4 running back to the MOP and about 350m out. Unfortunately for me, I had been attacked and in the middle of fighting 5 Kliknick mobs with NO buffs when he appeared right on top of me. Then I miss a beat with my heal button and bam I get incapacitated (what usually happens to me since they made THOSE changes). Down for 120 someodd seconds, I get up, I heal, maskscent and peace so I don't get attacked again by the lingering Kliknicks, and go to speak to the old man, and he rushes off!

Why did the old man appear when I was in the middle of combat and COULDN"T SPEAK TO HIM? You can't converse with NPCs in combat and you can't peace out of combat when there's 5 mobs attacking.

UPDATE.

Damn glad I have two PCs. While I was over here writing up this message, the old man visited again. But this was after having logged out and logged back in. He appeared within 5 minutes of logging in this morning and again when I relogged. I have the crystal. Glad I didn't have to wait 3 days again. Sheesh.

May the quartz be with you!

Okay, I will try to explain you.


I have already grinded 22 prof before, I have done my 4 holo, and thus should have been 80% completed (4 hidden prof on 5 ) but devs changed the requirement in our back making it 8 hidden prof.

Devs also saied to stop the grind and enjoy the publish because ithere would be fair reward.


So now, I got invited to the village and find out I have only 3 unlock, **edit** ? I was 80% done considering the info we were having, and if you look at the number of prof I mastered compared to the total its 2/3. So I end up beeing only 50%done instead of 80%.


Also if you look at the xp required to unlock 3 more branch, its like I got to master around or more than 20 elite prof. So why should I have to do a total of 42 or more prof when before I could unlock in 32 max ? Also why people with less prof got more unlock ?


A fair way would have to get free unlock based on the number of prof mastered or hidden prof mastered depending which one gives the best reward, now that would be fair for everyone.


I hope I've been clear and that you got my point fan boy

Check your math yo. If you were 80% done before and now you are 2/3 of the way done... then you arecurrently 66.66...% done. That means that you only lost 14% of your total 'doneness'. You are, in fact, crying over spilled milk.

You cannot compare apples with oranges, besides we were all under the same set of rules and conditions. Some people got more silents done than you did thats why they got more credit. the fact that you did 20 or whatever number profissions is not the issue here, the issue here how close were you to unlocking? it is a sielnt issue. Stop saying I could have done 32 professions if i knew this or knew that, it was totally up to you to stop or continue. The fact is you wouldnt have done 32 professions no matter what because I sense you are lazy when it comes to that.

well, I must not have been very clear, so I will pass on your inability to read, think by yourself and do maths.


I have mastered 22 prof, which is 2/3 of the total number of prof so 66,66%. I have mastered my 4 holo which compared to the 5 hidden prof is 80%.


However, by changing the requirement to 8 hidden prof that become only 50% and with their "fair reward" system it s in fact only 33%, so it went from 80% to 33%.


Now I got 3 unlock, so 50% ( not 66%), that means I ve been lucky enough to do a 5th hidden prof during my grinding, however it s still 16.66% from my achievment concerning prof mastered at all and one unlock away.


At the end, I should have been rewarded with more or so 4.5 unlock and I end up with only 3.


I consider the conversion is not fair for me. And it s the case for many other holo grinder

Lol you're really a strange guy, the fact is they announced there would be a new quest system with fair reward. I then decided to stop the grind.


Also you re assuming I wouldnt have done 32. Tell you whatI ve made 22, I could easily have make 32 if I knew I wouldnt be fairly rewarded for my grind. You could call me lazy if I hadnt done anything, but I have so point is moot.


rewarding people on an unknown variable and not even on a 1 on 1 basis is wrong.

Im just a simple guy but if you did 4 holo professions of the potential 8 that they changed it to and you get 3 or the 6 trees done for you doesn't the math add up? 4/8 = 50% 3/6 = 50%. Please explain..

Thx..

Actually as I saied the conversion isnt on a 1 for 1 basis. If Ihad just 4 hidden prof mastered I would have got only 2 unlock, that is 2/6 for 4/8, but I ve made one more hidden prof during my grind, so thats 5/8 and 3 unlock, 3/6.


As you can see, the conversion isnt fair, you re getting shafted. You can say I cry for nothing, but the way we re rewarded is far from being fairas you re loosing part of your work during the conversion, and I think also the reward should be based on hidden prof mastered or total prof mastered depending on what gives the best reward.


But it seems pointless to argue on this thread as everyone have different mind about howit should have been handled, and many feel the need to call people whiner or crier when you re opinion is no better than other.

It is, actually, your inability to type in anything that resembles clean, clear and coherent English that may or may not be causing a miscommunication. That sort of goes without saying though. Further, you are still crying over spilled milk.
