Thread: Holocrons

Serious question:


Is there any point to doing Holo’s anymore? I am sorry but I am kind of new to the game and have only been playing from just before Christmas and let me tell you; the information in and about this game is limited and sketchy.


In any case here is the limited and actually useless information on these page I found about Jedi:


Jedi Revamp
The path to become a Jedi will be a long series of quests that will take place over a period of time. Each quest will be of a different type and have different characteristics. There will Force Sensitive quests, padawan quests, Lightside quests and Darkside quests and master trials.


But this could mean anything, and alls I know is”


1. Everyone keeps telling me Holo’s are usless and worthless now.


2. Don’t bother doing anymore Holos


3. People who have spent Millions of Credits on Holos and are now frantically trying to complete them are just <insert colorful remark here> out of luck.


4. That no more Holo’s are dropping.


5. No real actual date of the change has been stated. Maybe next patch and maybe the one after that.


Well I don’t get it at all, and 99% of the reason is no real explanation of what is actually going on. As far as I can tell the developer are radically changing the game and all character classes have just hit the Junk Pile. Or worse yet, we are ALL going to be the same class, chasing the JedI quest all at the same time!


Alls I can say is it looks like the developers are trying to radically change the CORE of the game without much forethought put into it, or a lot of forethought put into it, but have left us standing around not knowing what to do or if its pointless to continue doing what WAS expected.


At this point with no real information I’m actually afraid to do another Holo. I mean with my luck Ill get Master Chief or something LOL. I seriously don’t see anyone actually picking that class or countless others after a Quest system is put in place.


Actually I really don’t know what to do at this point. Usually I end up standing around for a few hours then just log off because I have no goal! I actually don’t even see the point in keeping my account open until after the change if you what to know the truth.


*Do I do another holo and hop I don’t get caught up in the change with a totally destroyed character because I had to DELETE all the relevant skills to the NEW QUEST?


*Do I just stand around for a few more months until this idea is abandoned (as it should be IMO), or at least we are told some relevant information about it.


*Do I just close my account until this whole mess is over with then give it a look and compared to what I will be doing in some other game.


Sorry but it seems the developers want to change the game and the CORE of the game on a whim. I was hoping for a somewhat stable game 7 months down the road after release. Pretty big gamble if you ask me, and I say that because I have no clue what to actually do in the game anymore.


Do I do a holo or just get a Badge for a class


Do I stand around all day or just go do something else.


Sorry I guess I’m getting old because I don’t like change all that much and I sure don’t like change without any real explanation of that change either.


What’s the Goal NOW?

Oh, it's not the holocrons you have to worry about...it's the endless silent professions after the silent holo that you should fear. I don't come to the forums alot but now that i am afking all the entertainer profs i need something to do with my time. I know the number of people who have unlocked has dropped drastically since publish 6 and, since i'm only on my 15th prof. i am starting to worry i won't be able to master all 32 before the next publish.

changing how you obtain one class isnt even close to changing the "core" of the game. the "core" of the game isnt to become a jedi to open your fs slot or anything similier. if any game was based of that kidna s**t people wouldnt play. the core of the game is to have and do stuff you coiuldnt do in real life ex. fly do different planets in five minutes. besides that there are alot of people who dont even want to become jedi they dontsearch forholos and wont ever. so next time you decide to post something *THINK* i know it maybe hard but just try.

Storm Troopers with 3 letter names (the bulky looking ones) carry holocrons.

The easiest are the Dark Stormtroppers.. those are indicated by their 3 letter designation.


Ie... BCP-176

Not.. BC-156


Note: they aren't dark at all but white, they look like giant cream puffs.

Go to the Theed first...Use ur POI to Find the "DarkTrooper Dungeon" andtake shuttle to Maira or something like that bottom-left cornor i believe. On 1 visit, I got a Holo, Sith Holo, anda Green Force Crystal. This was by myself as a Commando. DOn't do alone unless Commando or TKA prof. Just my recommendations.

There's a quest on Dantooine at the Jedi Ruins (Jedi Temple ruins?). Talk to the guy and you run 3 quests. The last one you kill a Jedi Padawan and as your reward you get a Sith Holocron. You can trade it, sell it or drop it apparently, but I used it and it worked fine.
