Phenix - why?



Oreet - Yah, loving it. I don't know HOW long I was stuck at 2222 and not able to get by that first Tier 3 mission, but eventually I figured out all the stupid things I was doing, got my skills better, looted some better equipement over a series of duty missions, and figured out droid programs. Now I'm pretty much running through just about everything I end up against without TOO much effort. Some of the Kashyyyk space missions are fun since if you're not smart you can really get swamped quickly with a bunch of Tier 4 enemies all wanting a piece of you AND the stuff your'e escorting, but it's a blast. I want to run through some of the other squadrons so I can hone my tactics and skills and get a better appreciation for some of the other ships I'll end up flying against... but I LOVE the whole Black Epsilon story arc to date. And "Insurgent" has got to be one of the better names for an NPC trainer.

My fav looking weapon is the carbine you get for the Ettyyy bets. It's something straight outta Aliens. That rifle is sweet too, vrings back the Medal of Honor Days

This is horrible! I return to find my new title on the forum is "Jedi". What's up with that? If they wanted to confer that I'm rare and learned, they'd make my title RANGER. and then make it camo colored.

This carbine kind of reminds me of the gun that Engineers get in Battlefield 1942.



but, as far as weirdness goes, the UR-G8 pistol (Avatar loot box item) is the weirdest weapon in-game.


and the KYD2 would have to be my favorite pistol. very small and sleek.

I need to refresh my memory, but the model is either an M1 Garand or a M1 Carbine. I am pretty sure it is the Garand.

Pacific engineers have the M1 Garand. In Europe it changes to the Lee-Enfield No. 4

It looks more like the M1 though.

I still prefer the Intimidator Pistol.

Still, a nice weapon. Now if only I could get past the house full of blackscales.

I actually managed to get the wookiee to follow me out of the house. That's when I learned you need to kill the big Trando first .

I can believe that (though the mini 14 looks a little like a garand on the back half).

Well, on Friday i did the Secret of the Syren part 4, and I now have my most favorite weapon ever (based totally on looks).


The Special Ops Bola Carbine. Looks like an old WWII Rifle.



and by the way, if you haven't been doing the Secret of the Syren story arc, than shame on you. it's been loads of fun so far, and part 4 has been the best yet. there is this huge estate on Rori that I was sent to. when i got there, i found that the Black Sun Thugs had placed a seige on the estate, and i was running around gardens and raised walkways killing off the Black Suns in order to free the inhabitants. felt really cool running and gunning around the outside of this place.

but here's a warning, the space part (at least the imperial part of it) is pretty tough.





Thanks for the Intel Mr O. Ill definatly have to look into it after i finnish the ARC-170 quest. I think its bugged. In any case i love a good space fight.
