I'm on the TC with Gorath (my main server), and checking to see how all my buffs, etc. have converted.

My previously 944 power buff packs are now 425 power stims for combat level 60.

My old wound pack E's... are 600 power stims for combat level 60.


Why, please tell me why, buffs packs are turned into stims instead of appropriate enhancer packs?

It appears the /bug command is bugged

I can't get my respec to work, or send tells, something crazy is still going on in the server. I'll just hope it's bugged, until I get an official response.

wow. I read that link, and... WoW.


I suppose it is no surprise to the more cynical among us that "something useful" to a dev is not the same as "something useful" to one of us.


"Working as Intended" is what we are meant to understand about this so-called conversion.



CLICKY for the cut and paste challenged out there.


ha ha ha. oh my. just noticed: a 10 post Dev. Nice!

Well Im thinking about it. They dont seem to give me any options. They are sett to ruin over a years work....and yes I didnt realised how much this ment to me until they destroyed it. To bad Im allergic to level based game systems like typical EQ2, WoW, etc. Dont seem to be a game out there for me atm. So I will fight for us a little bit more.

I will see what I can do to make the conversion a bit more of what I think we all had in mind. I make no promises but I will be trying.

Thanks. I'm not asking for anything crazy here, I just think that buffs should convert better then wound E's, if they are staying stims. But wouldn't it make more sense to have them change into enhancer packs?

But regardless, anything would help... 400ish stims is pretty poor compared to what can be crafted.

It is not, taken from AviStetto post - http://forums.station.sony.com/swg/board/message?board.id=convtest&message.id=229#M229

The medicine/buffs system was drastically changed for Combat Upgrade. Most of the old medicine/buffs are no longer valid in the new system. We decided to convert these invalid items to something that is useful in the new system, instant stimpacks. These stimpacks are useable by any player of sufficient Combat Level, and can be taken into the field for on-the-spot healing. Instant Stimpack A is the weakest of these, but is useable by any player of any level (it requires CL 1). Instant Stimpack D is the strongest one that items are converted into with a power of 425, but requiring a Combat Level of 60 to use.


Currently, the converted items are still showing the old name that was given to the item when it was created. This may change so that they show the new name (Instant Stimpack A),

not good i will just have to use up all my buffs before the CU i feel for all the people who are buff crafters though what are they ment to do, with the amounts of stims that are going to be around they wil have a hard time selling them.
