Finished my template a couple weeks ago, so no more grinding for me. There's a great shift of both lokian avian meat and tat wooly hide on my server, so I thought I'd pad my bank account in preparation for JTL.
All weekend it's been just me, my harvesting droid, and asack full of veghash. Other players few and far between, no speeders (I've walked tens of thousands of kilometers through the wastelands of lok and tat), just proper hunting fun. The money's nice (100 cpu, 150 cpu), but just to be out tracking wild spawns and lairs, generally avoiding mission terminals, has been a blast. It seems like whenever I get down about how rangers are completely neglected by the devs, I have a great gaming experience that makes me forget about all that stuff for a while.
Just out of curiosity, what happens when the maintenance fund dries up on a house? I have a house on naboo that I never go to, and I'm pretty sure it's about to expire, or whatever. Does it just crumble and you lose everything inside? That'd be a stone drag, I suppose,but I really have no interest in returning to it right now.That would mean leaving the wilds and going into a laggy city and an even laggier starport full of spamming morons.

Wow, from the title of your post, I thought you were going to go in a totally different direction! Dude!
j/k
I believe you are correct in that the house and all the contents go up in a big cloud of smoke!
So, if you want to keep the stuff inside, bite the big one and make that awful trip back to "civilization"

Since I have never seen a house on fire, the way you see harvestors, I think they just poof.
Your thread made me happy.

oh crud, my account just closed temporarily and I think my maintenance runs out in a few days >.<
If I lose my B-wing suit and all my prenerf weapons, there's gonna be hell to pay. wouldn't it be nice if they sent you an email?
and lastly, out of curiosity, I put 10,000 credits into this house and left it alone. It's a small tatooine house. how long does 10k credits last you for maintenace?

Ah, hell with it. Other than some themepark loot, there's really nothing special in house. Poof!
Oh, and another thing that made this weekend good-- my brutal campaign of bantha slaughter has taken me past many a kreetle, but for some strange reason, they rarely broke my maskscent. What's up with that? Has the dastardly kreetle finally been nerfed?

Well, houses are meant to last for something like a week after the maintainence runs out (they should send you an email warning you that the house is taking damage and then slowly decay before they poof). I've never actually tried it, though, so you probably don't want to leave it for that. And 10k credits should last at least a weekin a small house (but you should check on it as soon as you can).

I think if memory serves,that 10k will run about 2-3 weeks in a house. I just put 20k in one and i am good for 50 or so days.

You will be mailed if there's a problem with your house.
On the kreedle question, maskscent seems to work better when you hit master ranger. Its as reliable as conceal against critters.
