Thread: Membership has Its Rewards!

Awesome ideas!!!
Threequestions though:
- When will these be available?
- If i had 3 chars, can all 3 get a reward in each period?
- Will the counter start when these are introduced or will it consider the date when you actually signed up?
All three of these questions were awnsered on like the first or second page. You should try reading the post a bit before jumping to questions
1. When they are ready. (Not for a few weeks, or even a couple months)
2. No... 1 pick, per milestone, per account.
3. When you signed up.

1. Going to test server in 2+ weeks
2. No. One character gets the reward
3. Sign up date
All the answers are found in dev posts in this thread, please READ IT BEFORE REPLYING next time.
kthxbye

Can we have a clarification about weapons?
-They can't be insured but you said that we can use the no decay item on weapons
-If that is the case, will it stop battle decay? Because they don't decay upon cloning.
In my opinion the rewards should be non-tradable but it makes no sense that you only get 1 per account. If they aren't tradable (like mark of hero ring) there's no cross-server trade problem.. yet it allows those who play on more than one server to actually enjoy the rewards.
Anyway, they should really be non-tradable: everyone is worrying about no decay items used to save the condition of exceptional weapons, but in the other hand if they are tradable one could keep a BE suit with skill mods forever.. which would once again raise the price of CAs.
-Correct. The anti-decay kit can be used on weapons.
-Yes, it stops battle decay.
As far as the items being tradable, remember you'd have to actually find people willing to part with their rewards. While there will be some people willing to do that, I don't think it will be the norm. Especially for the 6 and 12 month rewards.
i sincerely hope that uber-dot weapons and exceptional weapons will be addressed by the revamp cuz those things are very much unbalancing. nothing wrong with being a little better as a loot item but a T21 that lands a 3k PVP hit is just ridiculous as are janta knives with 1200 mind fire....

Ok, now wait... So once one character on an account takes a reward (let's say the 3 month reward) does that mean that no other character on that account can ever get any reward? Or can another character on the same account take the next reward? (at the 6 month mark) If the latterwas the case thencross server tradingwould still be slightly possible, but still pretty improbable.

Ah drat! Yes you are correct, I misread his post. You can get someone to trade items with you, but since it is only ONE item per milestone per account you'd have to find someone willing to give up a reward choice. Sorry about that.
Isn't this reward for just one character per account? Thus making it impossible for cross server trades as you will not be able to get a reward on 2 servers.
Let's say at 3 months I get myself a selfpowered harvestor. If I wanted anotherat 6 months couldn't I find a 3 month vet on another server that really wants an x-wing Miniature. I could use my 6 month reward on his server give him the x-wing, and he could make his 3 month selfpowered harvestor on my server and give it to me.Yes you could do that.
The latter is the case. So let's be clear:
You get one choice per milestone per account. Any character on your account can take that choice. So one character could take a 3 month reward and you take the 6 month reward with a different character if you wanted to.
uh... this may mess us up on the TC servers. If I test this one TC I would not be able to get this on live servers correct? or will there be an exception for this?
Test Center is for testing so you can claim your rewards to try things out on Test Center, Once we go live with the Veteran Rewards you will get to choose your reward(s) that you qualify for on the live servers.

If I have been playing for 12+ months can I choose something from the 3,6, etc month milestone along with the 12 month one?

cool rewards, but C-3PO's leg is the wrong color on the reward.
both aren't supposed to be gold
Don't know if it's been posted yet, but it doesn't say C-3PO, it says Protocol Droid. However, you do get a cookie for knowing he has one silver leg.

You aren't supposed to have more than one person playing on a single account, so I'm sure they're not going to allow for that.
