Gracis Max for the info!!
While I was readingyourpostsI kept thinking of that line "A lot of Bothan spies died for this information"
Hope your name doesn't disappear from the boards because of it! 
Cheers

I actually thought about commenting on the number of bothan spies that died for this information. But then question would be raised as to why they died, how they died and who killed them

Yet another couple reasons for me to wait to purchase the expansion.The new content/quests are on the plus side, but it wouldn't kill me to wait for the feedback on what those quests are like and what the rewards for them are.
Thanks for the info Keck.

Okay, I'll cover quest, broadly. I did a few quests. They are all unique, and involve multiple legs, each of which can be done independently of each other, in a small enough amount of time to make casual playing doable. Quite a few of them integrate JTL. some of them require you to completeotherquests in order to finish the quest.Like, maybe fora leg of the quest you need to go to a certain place, and that certain place, you need to complete a quest to gain access to.
Rewards, so far, my favorite reward is completely decorative, but man o man, It's hilarious. I think I'll put it on my wall in sin city, so everyone can see it 
Another reward I have, I've discussed with someone else in beta, seems to be not what it should be. It's a weapon, but the stats are literally cdef stats. Apparently this is going to change, so if it's got better than normal stats, I'll be really happy.
The quests are very cool, and all very different, and some are just so cool, i'd love to describe them but I don't want to ruin it for people experiencing them. they followed WoW's lead as far as quests no longer being simply, go here, deliver this to this guy, come back, kill this guy, come back, deliver this, come back, etc.
A+ on the quests so far.

I wasn't trying to prompt you. I'm still gonna wait til I start to see more comprehensive lists/reviews of the quests. Thanks though Keck.
On a side note:
Uggghhh... another looted weapon. 
Not that there shouldn't be some rare but very high end looted weapons in the game. I've just got a problem with any easily acquired (and a quest is easily acquired) looted weapons that have stats that match or exceed crafted weapons.
Looted schematics were a great idea but it seems they're moving away from that now more every day.
Sorry... I just really hate what the future of crafting continues to look like.

well judging by the frogs it's not a great weapon (this gun is on the frogs). It's maybe a level 40 or lower weapon. probably lower. I just think it looks cool, and when the slicing revamp happens I want to try and make mine as good as possible, because it totally fits into my character lol.

and I'm totally with you on the quests thing, and I'm sure there's schematics available. In fact, there's nothing that suggests that that rewrd won't be a schem instead of the gun itself when the game goes live.

Oh and I don't know why this slipped my mind. And don't hold me to it. but there MAY be an actual space station in ROTW. As in, dock and get out type situation.

According to the stuff released by SOE/LA, you're quite right. Still trying to figure out why this is only in Kashyyyk space though.

This is sad. One of my best in game friends, the master ranger, and I had really been looking forward to exploring a new PLANET, not just a very woodsey bunker.

I know the feeling, my alt is a MCH, and might not even have any new things to tame...
