At a guess those outside the alpha team are gonna need a good 30+ minutes just reading through the skills window!

Hehe, we have been kept in the dark about a lot of things, we will need a good look at them ourselves. The reason why the skill lists and profession onions were not disclosed to public forums is because they were/are continuously changing so the skills we thing are present, may infact not be there anymore or changed somewhat.
In other words ill be looking over my ctrl+s alot in the first couple of hours heh.

There should only be one server to choose from. We will know for sure when the server comes up.

No.
WEll, yes, eventually, but no to start off.
This is a ground-up test, Day One we'll be uberNewbs, novice melee or novice ranged.
Don't know what weapons we'll have but the chances are it'll be the beginner weapons only and, in the short term, there won't be any artisans anywhere near ready to go WS or AS.
I'm also anticipating that the testing is going to be hugely controlled. Expect a LOT of downtimes, a lot of server resets and a lot of 'focused' testing.
I'd also be a little wary of grinding artisan or even grinding scout initially as it'd be a PitA to find that, on server reset, we're all back to zero state characters.
This is going to be SO fun, lol.
And we'll be in there in about..... oooh 'soon'.
BTW, remember to set up a RIN!

Has anyone thought about varying the racial benefits for the CU Testing?
I am very familiar with the abilities of the Zabrak, but in order for more focused testing, and a variation of play style, maybe we should have all the races covered and take notes as to how the racial benefits/ restrictions help or hinder being a ranger.

I have thought about the racial special skills in relation to the HAM changes (Like what does a leezard /regen do, and what does a Zabrak's equillibrium do). I would assume the mods (leezaerds be + unarmed damage, humans get + artisan experimentation) would be unchanged, though.

The mods may be changed, they may not. I remember the devs on about how they dont wantspecies to be a deciding factor in combat so if they've made any changes at all i suspect its in regards to the differences between species. If they have decided to 'balance' the species stuff then i suspect it will mean the benefits will be less obvious now, that sort of thing.

cool, thanks for the thoughts.
like it is now, a twi'ilek ranger can be just as effective as a bothan ranger, i think i was referring to the innate abilities like equil, if they will change, if new ones will be added, or old ones removed.
just curious, but i guess i will find out soon enough.
