First off, you cant travel there directly via travel. You must go into space. I had to ask for help and break out the manual lol cause i only use space for free travel. Anyway the trip back was the instant travel type so maybe after going once I can skip the space trip ?


The planet has one starport, and no cities really. The SP is in a small encampment with various quests. The few I checked out where the go to point a and kill various mobs and bring back 20 pelts type quests.


There are roughly 8 POI. Most are small encampments (i didnt see any caves) that are open areas. Some had red aggro mobs like isolationist wookies that attack on site. They were easy though, I dont recall seeing anything above lvl 26 around there. There were two POI way up north that I didnt visit so mobs might be tougher there ? One POI was called the Hunting grounds, large doors were closed to it so I couldnt get inside. Im guessing a quest gets you in there.


Mobs I saw, some that looked like banthas, many of those lizard pets we get for digital download (i saw a lot of MCH hunting for them) and not much else. I think I saw 4 different mobs total.


My one complaint has to be the paths. You cant drive anywhere you like on other planets. You are forced to follow these paths which have high hills on both sides forcing you to stay in it. This issue right here means my main jedi wont be spending much time on Kashyyk as everyone is too close to you. There isnt anyplace isolated to hunt at, unless hunting grounds offer something different ? It felts like KOTOR, ver restricting. In fact its almost more like Kashyyk is a small instanced dungeon than a whole planet. Also explains how it was such a small download.


I didnt experience any lag which was nice.


The graphics are nice. Place is kinda like corellia and naboo combined.


I didnt get into testing the quests to see if they all work well, etc. Nor did I figure out where to start the cybernetic stuff. I gotta grind elswhere for double xp week as Kashyyk doesnt seem wise for jedi.
