If we get enough people and they get up to that end game level we do end game operations

I'd certainly like to give them a go. I didn't get to that stage the last time I played SWTOR but I have lots of experience with endgame PVE from WoW.

[CaptainCrunch]

Well there's lots of stuff that we can do that are pre-end game

1) We can do flashpoints, even if we start at the lower level ones so that we can get the mechanics down in an environment that doesn't maim us

2) We can do grouped arenas. We can take Maximum Truclulence into the hut ball circuit and some of the other ones

3) We can pick a world and raid all of the dailies on it, that means more money and bonuses for all, and we can even do the weeklies, however everyone would need to be at level 50 for the end game dailies

4) Once GSF goes live for everyone, maybe we can form the Maximum Truculence fighter wing and do some raiding there.

5) Once everyone hits 50 or 55 we can do Makeb and we can do Omicron and other end point content, we would need 16 people to do operations though.

We just need to establish that everyone understands rules and etiquette in groups especially around drops.



Just some thoughts.

I got my gunslinger (Artley) up to 11 on the weekend. I do have some toons higher on both sides, which I am sure is the case for most. We could probably put together an operation sooner rather then later.

Those are the republic side guys. Told you I have issues thinking of names. I was much more creative when I played wow.

I've given up on creative names. All of mine now are just a variation of Komskies. Komskies, Koms, Komz, Komy... that kind of stuff.

What, were Rathjinx, Rathjizz and Rathjerk all taken?

[CaptainCrunch]

I usually find a cool word, and either translate it to Latin, or make something Latin sounding. I still think that my Sith Warrior Darth Journis sounds incredibly cool for a guy that probably writes in his dream journal while listening to Tony Robbins.

[Trailer Fire]

I have a list of names from various other works that I use. Jondalar (aka Jondy) is my go to. Followed closely by Revan. Ayla, Joplaya, or Jonayla for females.

Did you get Ayla from Chrono Trigger?

I'm surprised that you would get to use Revan or Ayla, their name filter prevents names from Star Wars Lore from being used.

When the game first came out my buddy made a guy named Naga Sadow, but it was more like Nägä-Sädöw or something like that to bypass the filter.

[CaptainCrunch]

I saw a guy with the name Luuke skyyywalka.

I went up to him and asked him about it and he said he was an evil clone (he was a Sith Inquisitor), he'd even done his best to make him look like Luke Skywalker with a goatee. That was worth a high five.

Children of the Earth. I get asked that all the time and I have never played CT or CC. Maybe I should.

I use Revan for non Star Wars stuff because it is usually taken otherwise.

On the empire side I couldn't play for more then 5 minutes without a duel request being spammed on me, republic side maybe 2-3 requests total.

And...this is why I can't play on a PvP server. I don't have a lot of game time, the last thing I need when I'm trying to relax is some jagoff with nothing better to do with their day than ruin mine.

[Hessen]

Unfortunately my high level toons are all on another server and the ones on Bastion are all Empire.

I've started a new toon:

Sychophant - Jedi Consular (healing)

If we're looking at running instances as a guild are their any class needs?

[Komskies]

Consular would probably be a good choice. You can never have too many healers!

[CaptainCrunch]

For some reason in groups there's always a shortage of healers and tanks.

I plan to be on on Saturday night, probably with my smuggler, so if anyone wants to set a time and meeting place maybe we can do some raiding.

Usually because healers and tanks suck to level. Healers, especially. At least tanks generally can eventually kill something. There are few things in most games that can healed to death.

Though, SWTOR does help a lot with that by having companions to help alleviate some of the issues.

Respeccing is a bit of a hassle, too. So you have to decide to be a tank or healer, pick that AC, and then level with a spec not for that (unless you level through flashpoints, which is boring) and then respec when you come 'of age', as it were.

[Trailer Fire]

Anyone here RP or anything? I'm not crazy hardcore about it, but I do have a tendency to write up back stories for my characters. Some are a lot more in depth than others. For example, with the size of the EU for Star Wars I could come up with a fairly in depth back story.

[SHOGUN]

Maximum Truculence... what an awesome guild name lol.
