Thread: This has really become pathetic now
The crafting thing on the astromech droids - not sure if that is a bug. What happens is if you experiemnt on them too sucessfully you bump them into the next level of storage - hence they come out at the level above. Just have to make sure when you experiment that you don't do this - or on the plus side it does mean that you can make level 4 astromechs with level 3 ingredients...
The Probot vendor bug is a pain in the ass but I tend to do custom orders so it's not affected me that much other than explaining to people why the droid they have just bought does not attack. Usually results in another sale for me but not good for the profession as a whole
Hang in there though!
I share your pain too ![]()
It's just like it always was..except for a brief false summertime way back when.....and we see no improvement and instead see only loss. Progressive loss of our fun in being DE.
I won't bore anyone by listing the downturns, but I will agree that playing a DE is far less fun than it ever was, and let's be honest we never did hit a 'high' of the fabled 'fun factor' in this profession. The latest 'all droids are the same CL' *feature* has just about killed my desire to craft any more. Sadly, as a hybrid crafter that leaves very little alternative for any kind of fun...as people will know being stuck on CL54 is a horrible place to be in this so called CU. Content? What Content?
It's like living in a desert here...no feedback whatever from the Devs or Jenden (not your fault hun) and because of that, no light at the end of the tunnel. Actually thats not entirely true, cos everywhere you turn there is that horrid HUMMMMM and a glowstick providing light thats directing the whole game where it shouldn't be going.
I would look on the bright side..but I can't see one !!
I have the same reaction as you... no more armor untill they fix the bugs, that might cost me my repute, then so be it. I will not sit idle by while they break the profession and ignore the bugs.
one can survive better doing stupid missions (if the CU permits since even krettles may be deadly for some pure crafters) than on crafting which gets on ya nerves when the third thing becomes useless...
since we simulate a virtual life in a galaxy far far away...i wonder what will happen if someone runs a buisness like this in RL...he will get fired or broke...
any fixes are far far away if any...but for all it would be best if they would tell us if they plan anything in the next couple of months or at least would tell us to get lost with our prof...
still to proud to quit either prof or race (still wonders why ROTW brought nothing for wookiees)
Publish 19 - Breaking (almost) all pets and droids. CL 1 (0 hit points).
Once again I am reminded that I should question my subscription. Where is the QA? Why is SOE not listening to their correspondents or reading the bug reports that are submitted prior to releasing a major patch? This Keystone Cops mentality needs to stop. Fix the broken parts of your product.
I hope ... I hope ... I hope ... I hope ... I wish for better QA and perhaps a new QA Manager for SWG's developement direction and QA oversight.
