One question I do have is: where's that Hutt Casino?




I think the official word is that it has been put on hold indefinatly.

Guess who else is back - Warryyr! He respec'd back to Master Musican and he's almost Master Entertainer, too!


I also got Master Creature Handler, towork some pets into a show


I had a pure Entertainer character, but it just wasn't as fun as having Musician on the Wookiee. And I've never a Mandoviol with Warr before, so this'll be fun.


The Wook is back, and he can spin records again, too - on his Warryyr Rack Stratomaphone. Have a look!

Congrats, Warr!

Have you noticed that we still have to pay 400K for Western and Theatrical (440K if inspired due to the 10% bonus) while NOONE else needs to pay xp for anything? You were the one who told us way back last summer that this was going to be STANDARD cross professions. That was 2 expansions ago and noone else has yet to pay anything!!






That's not really fair, Pup. That's what they told us in the Corr forum back then. They also told us that all of our new Dances and Songs would be earned through quests... they said that they intended for all of our leveling to be quest based in fact.


I'm not actually sure that this isn't still the plan for longterm. The CU was just such a huge hurdle to get over first. Even now that we're post-CU, so much is still being tweaked from that. It may be quite a while before we ever see the XP Turn In/Quest Based Leveling to its full extent.


Good news is, we Entertainers are still slated for many other improvements before that has to happen. (No not the Hutt Casino, which was shelved two weeks after I became a Corr Silly Ricky must just want that one really badly so he keeps forgetting they told us that, lol)


I'll be late for the CC too, tonight is Vandessa's B-Day party irl! Hopefully I'll get there for the good tail end though and get to see everybody still.

I haven't ever forgotten about the Hutt Casino. If I ever see an opportunity to try and get it squeezed into the game somehow, I'll do everything I can. heheh

I never forgot it either, it does sound darn cool! I was just teasing Ricky. I still hope it does get de-shelved one day when they have the resources to do it right. Maybe an EP?


Didn't make it back in time to catch the CC, hope you guys had a blast though!

I didn't get a chance to make it either. I'm dogsitting for my brother this weekend & had to go over there after work. Things had wrapped up by the time I got back.

Hey, how many times can I apologise for being too negative? Well one more than before. I'm sorry!


I just see this on top of may other issues and I get frustrated.


I, also, have not forgotten about the Hutt Casino, but I have give up all hope of it ever reaching us. Its been over a year since it was mentioned by a Dev, and so much has happened since.

I think if they'd really cared about the XP turn inconcept, a lot of the cool new biolinked weapons would have had an xp cost associated with the link. Not trying to be positive or negative, just a statement of fact as I see it.

Or, XP charges to use the new schematics that have appeared as loot for many other professions. Or XP charges at the end of a quest to get the cool new loot prize.


Pretty much XP charges anywhere but for us, unless of course we get additional ones with everyone else getting hit.

I will say that getting 3 new vehicle schematics just for merely logging in, so that I could sell them and make myself some nice cash, feels kinda sleazy - when I know that Musicians pay 400,000 experience just to get a new song that doesn't monetarily benefit them in anyways, and in fact provides xp from a mid-level song (not even extra xp or anything).


I still maintain that all it achieves is penalizing Musicians who are pursuing Jedi - 400k xp to get new content as the sacrifice of a lot of Force Sensitive xp is kind of a shame.


The purpose of the quest is to get the song, yet the 400k xp cost insinuates the quest wasn't enough to get the song...in which case, why was there the quest? Bah.
