Interesting Guybrush!

Josra and Rojavon are both level 50, which until the update is max level. Soe even though they have not finished chapter 3, there is little point continuing to play them as any xp earned would be wasted(?) After the expansion max level is being raised to 55 so quest xp would be useful again.

Hmmmmm I wonder why the tie between affection and crafting?

Right now killing things on level 50 characters just gives Legacy points. Average seems to b 5 a kill, but I've gotten as little as 3 and as much as 16. However, the expansion which raises level cap to 55, will be available to download tomorrow for those who pre-ordered when it was first announced (me), next Sunday for everyone else.

Let us know how you like the expansion

Josra has reached Dark Side Tier 5, gaining the title "Loathsome". Automatically unlocked a skill which, for all my characters, which nearly kills companion to heal the character that used it. Five is the current maximum, but I noticed a vendor had items withh a requirement of 5 or higher, which leads me to suspect the update will raise Dark Side and Light Side levels too.

The servers, including web site, are shutting down soon for the update. Going to take all night.

Guybrush, remind me never to quest with Josra

Hee Hee.

There's a light side version that heals your companion but Rojavon needs more ls points to unlock it. Not going to get it today, the servers just shut down.

First quest on the new planet is actually level 51 and the whole thing is considered chapter 4, so I'm going back to work on finishing chapter 3 and leveling up to 51 before I do the new stuff.

Just learned from a guild member that you can romance same gender characters. Not something I'm interested in but for those who wanted it its there now.

Have fun!

Thanks.

For ordering the Rise of the Hutt Cartel you get 5 Basic Commendations in email. Takes over 100 of those to get anything.

For pre-ordering early each of your characters gets a new pet, a new title "Scourge of the Hutts" and a device that lets you train anywhere without having to go back to the town where trainers are or go to fleet.

There are a bunch of new achievements (most of which Guild Wars 2 already had), however they don't display correctly until you've logged into all your characters, since all your characters affect them. Most of these achievements will require you to fight foes you would normally avoid, like all the harmless beasties that show yellow meaning they won't attack you if you don't attack them or the higher level foes you thought it would be good to avoid.

Ohhhhhh, goodies. I love goodies!

I was only lvl 50, when I did the first few quests on Makeb.

Helped A LOT to do it right now, when there's tons of people around to kill all those mobs and goons LOL

But, they are not that scary if you can keep the agro around 2-3 goons/beasts.

Often you'll see 2 lvl 51's at around 16K-17K.
Oh and the first few bosses will be around 40K

So be sure to have upgraded every little thing, that can be upgraded...

Misslilo, what do you think of the new expansion?

Still haven't finished Voss. Done with bounty hunter storyline on Voss, just finshing up bonus series. Josra is now level 52 so could go back to Makeb. He's actually parked on fleet to use planetary commendations to upgrade armor.
