Adding my two cents for the "This works category".
At Publish 10 I had all the POIs but Dathomir (I HATE that place), 4 Cries of Alderaan, Mos Espa Track Race, 3 Professions and Imperial Theme Park. This put me at "Surging"
Did Nym and was still "Surging". Um...that doesn't sound too good...
Got the two Warren Badges and surging still..
Finished Rebel Theme Park tonight and started to glow!
Now I just need to wait around for the Old Man.
Thanks for all the help all!

Followed the guide - it worked. I have approx 30 badges before pub10. The only themepark i did was jabba's. So i did the rebel, nym's, and the 2 warren. I just finished the warren today....checked my status and was still Faint. Scratched my head, then my arse, and realized I hadn't done Ben's house. Went over there, and bam - "You feel an inner glow. The Force is with you."
Not too shabby! And Cheers to the great guide, mates!!

confirmed, worked for me perfectly..
also, a couple of insights:
- CoA badges didn't do squat, I didn't glow until i had exactly all the badges outlined in the minimum setup
- Profession badge need _not_ be elite profession, I had marksman and scout master when I started to glow
- After glow is reached, old man appears after 3 server resets, neither me nor any of my guildmates has been visited quicker than that. He also visited me just 200m outside Daeric (while helping someone with the sludge panther padawan trial).
- Sith appeared 2 restarts after old man had visited me, spent PLENTY of time out in the wild (as im a ranger) since i went glowing, only came back into town to get new buffs (which you dont need for sith, they are very very easy)

9 Corvette Badges(Rebel, Neutral, Imperial missions. 3 for each faction
so if I am KOS at nyms
and KOS at The imp theme park
and didnt get the imp hero badge because i am a rebel and didnt want to get a imperial badge
and am not in a circle of leet friends that can complete any part of the vette...
ill never get the force?
Here's some hints:
- Killed on Sight at Nym's? Fine go kill Corsair Canyon Pirates until you have +5000 Nym faction.
- Killed on Sight at the Imp Theme park? Well, you're a rebel. Duh.
- Don't want to get an "Imp" badge at the Warren? Nah, no worries: you are proving the "perfidy" of one of their high ranking officers. The months of internal investigations this will cause will demoralize at least half their star fleet. You're doing the Rebels a favour to get this badge...

Now get to work! And may the Force be with you....

Ok I'm a fairly active player but i don't know where crap is in the game. I loggin in today (my first time since the patch) and i checked force. I was surging. Here is what i have
Master Medic (prof)
Jaba park
Imp park
Ben's Hut
Exar Kun's Temple
Temple ruins (don't have the badge but i have been there several times this year.)
Sarlac
Tuscan pool (both difficult)
and like 10 exploration badges.
I plan on doing nym's park and the corvett but where is the corvett? also somebody was talking about server rests, how often do thoes occur? Last question where is the warren?

Server resets at 7am EST most mornings. Warren is on Dantooine,on your datapad POI tab.
The Dant Jedi Temple Ruin badge is acquired outside the cave around the broken staircase in the center of what looks like the base.
Also wont have to do the corvette if you get both warren badges, and vise versca

I ama pure crafter in my main character, Master Architect for 10 months, Master Artisan and Master Merchant for about 8 and 6 months respectively. I ignored (euphemism for barfed) my first and only holo profession, Entertainer.I havedone only easy POIs, and those only because they happened to be in the neighborhood of something else. On Pub 10 day,I was faint. Today, I took him to the remaining Jedi POI's (already had the Danooine temple). I visited Ben's hut, did the check, still faint. Hookay, off to Yavin, made a beeline for the Exar Kun temple, and eventually got up the gumption to step inside. Got the badge a little distance inside,did the check, SURGING!
I'm really curious to see whether I can get glowy now without killing anything or anybody (especially myself).
