Thread: Test Center 2 Wipe and Re-roll on Wednesday...
And the screams of thousands of dying ewoks will be heard thoughout the entire galaxy!
Thanks for the update JustG!!!
Excellent! I thought you guys might do a reroll which is why I did'nt go through all the trouble of gathering the resources to make great stuff. Looks like the second time around should go alot more smoothly if we are provided with those materials up front. I hope the drop rate is increased greatly on those mobs you listed. If so thats great news for us but you might want to consider not making them drop for non-jedi so we can avoid the current price issue. Pearlsshould still drop for everyone though.
As for the Robe issue. Im guessing since you have not given us them yet they must be tied directly into the Force Progression tree which isnt fully functional yet right? Could you please give us an ETA on when we can expect that system to be patched in? I know you said the upper ranks would be filled by QA testers but I dont trust em they are probly not professional exploiters like the rest of us. Might want to give us a shot at it too before pushing it to live. LOL
Yay!
I'll be alive again if you are going back to where we were initially on Friday!!!!
(I swear, this time I will leave the gungans alone!!!!! Really!!! Even my live characters will!!!)
Tor'ka-TC2
(til Weds, you may pay your respects on Naboo, 1400m from New Unity -7026 4072, next to the Gungan encampment...)
JustG:
Without Robes, you will NOT get a complete test here. I now that sounds "obvious" but let me explain:
The first go around on TC2 I made a Master Force Wielder, 2H LS (0400), Heal (2204), Enhance (2004), Nov Def to fully test a Force Wielder and have the same basic skills we have in today's system (run, heal, etc).
I could not kill anything above Meatlumps due to NO DEFENSES in this build. If youfail totoss in armor or robes, then everyone is going to make the Master Defender, plus whatever and you won't get a variety design tested in here and it will likely lead to some really lacking feedback prior to going live. That means if it is not tested and effective in here, then you are 99% guaranteed to see ALL current Jedi do conversion builds in live that avoid the other trees as well.
my one problem with this is, that being a padawan, how am i suposed to get power crystals asides from buy them from knights. we cant get armor so fighting a janta may be a bit tough. they should at least give us 1 to get a saber started. that is unless those training sabers are stronger than i think, but tk melee defense ony does so much.

Many people have Jedis on Live and characters on TC. I myself had 3 characters on TC when the Jedi announcement was made and I assumed that one or all would be set to Knight. I have discovered that is not the case - all 3 were only allowed Padawan. I believe that even though I have a Live Jedi, they were flagged for Padawans since they were all active TC characters. Are you folks aware of this issue? If so, great. If not, could you give it a look? Thanks and regards.
I had the exact same thing happen to me.
