I am relatively new, but it seems like this revamp is 10 times worse than hologrinding...Well thats if yer a doc converting on a 10:1 conversion rate for force senses... If your a combat profession then i guess its 30 times worse than holigrinding, (30:1) conversion rate.. Seems like grinding has been dramtaically increased beyond all sane comprehension.
I thought the days of grinding were over, but now all i see are a bunch of people sitting outside of aurellia running back and forth to convert ludicrous amounts of experience that acutally only end up to be 8k force or if yer lucky 20k force exp...
Quest or grinding devs? whats it gonna be?
I mean ive already seen about 15 players afk grinding as usual....

By the way, A note from you guys saying 'we see your point and are working on a fix' would probably go a long way. But until we get a better solution, here is a short term fix.
My solution to make the grind a little easier, and less tiresome than it already is.
1. Include a command that can convert the xp for you (thus saving us a trip to dath just to convert xp once we hit the cap) something like /convert <source xp> <destination xp> i.e. /convert medical senses
OR
2. Remove the xp cap on all master proffesions for their particular kind of xp. So that a Master Doctor or Master Medic would have no xp cap on medical or medical crafting xp and a Master Pistoleer would have no cap on Pistol or Combat xp.
AND/OR
3. Reduce the insane number of FS xp needed to earn each box of FS skill. You could refund anyone any xp they may have spent already earning a box of FS skill, to make the coding easier or simply make a one time award to them depending on how many skills they have taken based on what skills they have.
just my 2 cents

Hey TH, i think i found a bug (maybe
)
)When we where fighting the Sith Jedi to start the jedi trials i noticed that when he killed me and my verry friendly doctor came to my rescue and resurected me i could do anything for about 30 seconds... no command worked like attack, heal... i have never noticed this before publish 10...
And another thing is that i take alot more damage now, When im buffed and attack Quenkers, Huurtons or Nightsisters it seems like there attacks go right throug my armor mostly Action dmg from quenks and huurtons, from NS´s the HAM downs really fast even agains weaker ones like rangers.
btw. im not using stun armor, and only Helmet, chestplate, gloves and boots.
Dont know if these are bugs !?.
Hope u read this and give me an answer.

Lets all understand one thing. The quests are nothing more than window dressing to try to cover up a new massive grinding system. The new quest content is about as deep as a puddle of spit when weighed against the fs grind. BTW, it takes the equivelent of grinding 32.5 professions to get all the fs points if you were starting from scratch. All SOE has done is replace one flawed grind to be a jedi with another. Simple as that.

I didnt finish 32 professions, but I did unlock before Publish 10 with 24 professions. I received a visit from the old man on Wednesday, August 1 about 0130 after a server reset to fix the vehicle/pet store issue that occured that evening. When the old man arrived I spoke to him, received my Force Crystal and went on about my business. The following day the Sith Shadow Assassins attacked me, I was able to loot the data disk from one of them and received a waypoint to their main camp about 1500 meters away. I went to that waypoint, killed 3 more Sith Shadows, looted another data disk with the waypoint/access to the Village.....I have progressed from that point into Jedi Padawan with minimal problems. Ive had a great time with the last few days of gameplay, hope it continues. Them------>
Feedback Request:
- If you finished 32 professions before publish 10, how many days went by before the old man visited you?
- What happened when the old man visited you?
- What did you do once the old man visited you?
Thanks!

I finished 3 holos and only got 1 free unlock! I've bugged it but will I get the rest of my free unlocks? I've mastered 6 professions, 3 of which were holos and I've almost mastered my fourth holo before it would have gone silent. I noticed a lot of other people got shafted on the number of free tree unlocks as well!What is the status on this bug Thunderheart?

Replace the grind with content.
Make the FS quests grant FS XP.
This is nothing but a worse grind than the profession grind.
TH, your devs took too much math in college. It's not about numbers. It's about quality. Questing is not supposed to be do 10 patrols and then grind combat XP for weeks on end to get enough to fill 4 FS boxes. This is not what we were promised and this is not what we wanted.
END THE GRIND!
