Thread: Something that isnt making sense to me...
Simple answer:
Everyone can get to 90 new or old players.
Currrent full temps get a damage crystal to insure your saber will always be uber. A robe with bonuses and you get to be a blue ghost for fun if you wish and the ability to keep your alt.
New players will not get that.

But thats just it. if all the current players can reach a lvl beyond what new players can in the tree then why would a new player stay.
Maybe its just a cl bonus as in more health and damage against higher lvl mobs but we still have the same skills as a cl80 new player.
Just isnt adding up for me atm.
And remember the cl90 bonus applies to all combat clases not just jedi. So if what everyone is thinking currently that we have to continue up a tree to reach cl90 then thats really a shaft to new players. They would never be able to reach a full template so to speak.I just dont see them shafting players that dont even play yet.
Did you even read my post? please scroll up and read my post and tell me you are still confused.
Here it is again:

first off i was replying while you was posting. secondly if what you say is true why does the faq state this.
IV. New Veteran Player Loyalty Rewards
We are offering current active characters several loyalty bonus items in recognition of their status in the game community as valued veterans:
- Elder Buff – Increases to combat abilities, this buff can be shared with new players.
- Elder Title – In recognition of your status in the game as a valued veteran player.
- Profession Re-Allocation Option – All characters active prior to the introduction of the new game enhancements will receive a total of 9 re-allocation options or charges attached to their character to allow the player to test out each of the new professions once before choosing the final path.
- Jedi Bonus Items – Power-enhanced Jedi Robe and Lightsaber color crystal and the opportunity to play as transcended blue glowing Jedi character.
- 10 Additional Combat Levels – New combat levels to explore from level 80 – 90.
why is the extra ten lvls listed as a veteran bonus and not just a standard feature.
NO idea why this is confusing people, I figured that much just by reading that in Tiggs post..

Good point on your part but it's just bad wording on the FAQ I think. I have read that everyone gets 90. I'll tell you what , if they do that for the veteran players then that would be real stupid for new players. It would be the biggest mistake SOE has ever done in a virtual landfill of mistakes.
