I was gone for along time too so forgive the question..but do you actually have the badges for the professions you had mastered before pub8?







Yep have all my prof badges

I was originally on Ahazi and started a new toon on Valcyn just around publish 8 (which i think was the badge publish anyway)


If you were to examine my toon if reads like a novel, but still no Glow


There is only corvette left to do!







Go ahead and try the Vette, but if you dont mind..would you list all the badges that you DONT have?(aside from prof badges)..maybe it will help to double check the ones you dont have instead of wondering why the ones you do dont work. I'm kinda thinking that "glowy"=combination checklist and point system. Undoubtedly you have enough points from badges but there has to be a required badge that you're missing.


Trying to help!

I'm not sure, but there is some contradiction between this guide and the surviving publish 10 guide. One says:




- You feel no connection with the force. (Level 0)
- You barely notice something different about yourself. (Level 1)
- You feel a faint sense of the force. (Level 2)
- You feel the Force surge within you. (Level 3)
- You have a strong sense of the Force within you. (Level 4)




The Other states:




- You feel no connection with the force. (Level 0)
- You barely notice something different about yourself. (Level 1)
- You feel a faint sense of the force. (Level 2)
- You have a strong sense of the Force within you. (Level 3)
- You feel the Force surge within you. (Level 4)




Before completeing the 2 warren badges yesterday I was "surging". After completing the Imperial Hero part of the warren I became "You have a strong sense of the Force within you." according do one of the threads I've gone backwards LOL. I did read one disclaimer that says that /check could be bugged unless you're glowing. I know that one Poster stated you didn't need to master any professions to get glowy, but after mastering Creature Handler I was Instantly glowing. You may not need to, but I suspect it certainly goes a long way toward accomplishing the inner glow. I'm certain that had I mastered CH before going on my Badge scavenger hunt that I'd have starged glowing long ago. My recommendation is hit all the POI, Master an Elite profession then do the Warren/Corvette. That would pretty much lock it all up. Just waiting on the old guy now, it's been almost 2 full days so far.

Is your Jabba faction high enough? If its negative you will need to kill some Valorians first

Let me start by saying I'm happy for the people this has worked for


Maybe someone can advise me, as i'm losing heart and this doesnt seem to be working for me


Profs mastered: (all before publish 8)

Master Entertainer (starting prof)

Master ID

Master Artisan

Master Medic (holo)

Master scout

Master Brawler (holo)

Master Fencer (holo)

(4th holo Silent)

Master Marksman

Master Smuggler


Completed Jabba and IMP theme parks before pub 9

Took a break from SWG for about 3-4 weeks before Pub 10


Came back last week, read this guide checked my force status "You have a feint sense of the force"(I had no badges except the above prof and theme parks badges) so I thought "cool" ill grab the badges and get glowy so i can get my visit from the old man.


So I now have 44-45 POI Badges + exploration badges (decided to get em all)


I now Have:

Reb theme park

Imp Theme park

Jabba theme park

Nym's theme park

2 Warren Badges

Dead eye part 1

(havent gotten corvette! and to be honest I doubt I will be, the above is way more than some people of had to do)


and yetI'm still on "You have a feint sense of the force" I havent moved at all


I have 3 accounts with SWG (SOE) and 1 of my toons who has only mastered 3 profs is the same force rank as my Holo grind characterwho has more badgesand content


This was gonna be my last shot at SWG as I was staring to get a little bored, and although it was fun flying from planet to planet doing POI's and switching faction to do the Reb theme park etc, I honestly think that its may be time for me to cancel my accounts, Grinding Holo's obviously didnt give me any credit towards Glowy, and getting every POI and nearly every theme park badge has made stuff all difference.


so besides finding a group to tag along with to the corvette, is there anything elseI can do? have I missed something?






What I did NOT see here is the Jedi POIs. I have 2 toons, and in BOTH cases I went from surge to glow with a simple Jedi POI (Ben's hut for one, Exar Kun for the other)...


Also, the Warren badge(s) seemed to give me the biggest jump in FS status, although with /check being bugged who knows...





Melvis (Scylla): Master Pistoleer, Master Bounty Hunter
Ishu (Scylla): TKM, Master Doctor
Givi (Scylla): Master Smuggler, Master Squad Leader
Ockewei (Scylla): Master WS, Master Artisan, Merchant in Training

"you have a feint sense of the force"


The only thing I havent done is the Corvette, but what concerns me is that my status has not changed even after getting 3 more content badges and all the POI's, I know it may be bugged, but it still makes me loose faith in the overall system SOE have implemented.


I even made sure I declared my residence just in case it was that, and did a few race circuits, so I guess the corvette is the next step, and if that doesnt work I have no idead where to go from there.


also the example of a guarenteed route isnt actually guaranteed


Thanks in advance all

I've figured out that the /check command doesn't update it self once you have checked yourself for the first time. IT WILL NOT CHANGE until you have retrieved all the badges required from this guide. I'm glowy and am waiting for old geezer to come and talk to me.

Good luck,

Bodyhammer..I know this is a pain but what I was asking for was if you could list specifically the badges on your character sheet that you DONT have. That might help us clue in on the prob.

ok i read alot of the post but mot all i thnik this lay out is correct but after reading this found some interesting thing


i have many char some new i mastered pro no change

i have a char i did no content mastered 1 prof. and got 1 jedibarely feel change. went and did nyms faint

went on to do 26 poi's but no jedi no change. did warren no change.

so this is what i came up with sorry if it was already covered and i missed it

look"s like prof is a req but effects no change

you get one level for first jedi poi and one for first content badge

i think you'll get one for complete 3 jedi and one for meeting the poi req. this should put us at surge then a level for compeleting ccontent req. tada glowing

also those how had almost all before revamp try doing any of the theme parks left might unlock you



good luck
