Th,


I really dont think Parcel Bombing BH's and Smugglers are a way to go in this day and age.


Also can you confirm if the harvesting module requires novice scout skill to use or just jedi initiate as it was them that complained they dont get to harvest all the millions of creatures they have kill to make the first box of their skill tree.

I don't see anything about planned travel from any planet to any planet. Was it scrapped? Is it still in?

Unfortunately, there were many technical issues involved with fixing the Hermit badge quests. I have rescheduled the fixes for the Hermit badge quests for Publish 9 now that we have a clearer idea of what is wrong and how much time it would take to fix them. Sometimes, things appear more simple on the surface than they really are once we figure out the problems and this turned out to be one of those times.

Im really glad they are working on stuff like our droids not tracking... as apposed to making things like this so Bounty Hunters and Smugglers can run around like urchins from the Bash Street Kids causing trouble.


Also now we got a droid that harvests for us, wether your a scout or not... just what is the point of scout now?



I'm sure it'll only harvest at the novice scout rate. I definitely won't use that module.

Although I'm deeply disappointed with the total lack of CH fixes, (you can't make me drop MCH, you can't....... /cry), the new droid modules look like a lot of fun. Some very good ideas there that i would not have thought of. There's some balance issues there, and i sure hope they're done right.

Could you please address the seeming lack of any fixes to combat in the patch notes (other than one for pistoleer)? I know that you have postponed the combat revamp scheduled for publish 8, but were were under the impression that there would be a substantial number of combat bug fixes in publish 8.

It absolutely sucks that after 43 pages of replies, you only changes Shuttles to 5 min..



Anyways, 1st bug found -


BH Mission terminals do not work anymore after Pub 8


Wookiee armor I had in my inventory and equiped ( 3 sets) alll dissapeared after Pub 8 hit. I just bought them today. (before the publish)
