I feel the pain though, between much larger monitors and much older eyes, the UI can be a tad difficult to read at times. There are some mods to increase font sizes (not fully supported, meaning you can use/run them, but if you have issues with them we may not be able to assist).

    Rynde, post: 823, member: 1017 wrote: I just wanted to write something up for the new players to evolve because there are a lot of differences which I believe you will find to be much better in the long run but can be very confusing in the beginning. Once you create your character you will land in ME in front of the star port, you will be given a number of items including a speeder, an ITV, and a Yacht, all which will help you on your travels. If it is your first character you will receive a lot more items. One to note will be an item that will allow you to skip your heroic pre-quests, this will save you a ton time and should be saved for whatever character you want to do heroics on, but anyone can unlock them by doing the pre quests. Additionally, once you land you will be given an assortment of weapons. Like in Pre-cu, choose the weapon based on the skill set you would like to learn, you can change it at any time. You will gain experience in the form of both combat experience and whatever weapon you are using experience (ie. rifle experience). Equip your weapon of choice and look for the first waypoint to get your first speeder. This is the beginning of legacy which is a quest series that was introduced in NGE that would introduce you to the game mechanics and have you follow a list of quests to get started. Continue to follow these quests and gain experience. Once you have gained a few thousand experience you can hit escape and go to your expertise tree and start to spend your experience, ideally first into the brawler or marksman skill to gain a few abilities to make killing mobs a little easier. You will need to hit esc again and go to your commands tab and equip your new skills. Also remember as you level you will sometimes get higher levels of these skills and will need to be reequipped at the higher levels as you continue to level. Now the important part is not to progress too much, you want to stay a little ahead of the level of what you are fighting until you max out your combat experience. If you fight something too low of level you will not receive much experience for it, however completing quests will still give massive exp. Combat experience is used to purchase your combat skillsets and can be mixed and matched in any way you seem fit and as you gain the skills your level will increase. If you follow legacy and complete quests you should be able to make it to level 90 in about an hour or two. Once you do this make sure that you have equipped all your best commands/ skills and now to gear. Once you reach level 90 you will now find yourself ill equipped but you should have some money, i would check the bazzar for a weapon of choice to get at least to a higher level to kill better mobs and gain loot. once you have a weapon you will want to head to Dearik and start "avenging Mort"quest which can be found here https://swg.fandom.com/wiki/Avenging_Mort . This will give you the Katarn Armor, once you have this you can now compete with the big boys but want to continue to progress. I spent the next part of my time killing nightsisters for both stat loot and holocrons, the stat loot can be sold for good credits at the junk vendor but you are limited to how many items you can sell per day but you can easily get 250k credits per day Another important not junk loot is not needed for RE, as most all of the augments are craftable. Also don't be afraid to reach out on either discord, forums or in game, this is a very friendly server with a lot of really awesome people. Hope this helps anyone new to the server! Thanx, your post helps a lot. I just started days ago. I find things a bit hard. Luckily, someone was on and told me what to do to start with quests. But, 1 starting quest doesn't work. The Cale Herron quest, where we are supposed to go to Mos Taike Tattooine to meet him/her. There, is no Mos Taike, or waypoint marker to get to this mission. None in the journal either. Updated: The waypoint is @ 3838 2218 Tattooine

    [image: 64-201a0eb72c0f-frs2.jpg] FORCE RANKING SYSTEM **What is the Force Ranking System ***Disclaimer: The Force Ranking System is a PvP style system, which in order to progress, requires PvP kills of other Jedi/Dark Jedi. Those who do not want to participate, do not need to enter into the Force Ranking System, and may play their Jedi strictly PvE. -The Force Ranking System (FRS) is a way for Jedi to earn extra rewards/items for participating in FRS qualifying events. Jedi as intended here on Evolve is a strong Alpha-like class that carries certain risk and rewards by being one. Once you have unlocked Jedi you have the option of joining the FRS in either the Light or Dark Enclave and competing with other Jedi to rank up in this system. The Enclaves are not dependent on your faction. Meaning Yes, you can be a Rebel and be in the Dark Enclave, or be an Imperial and be in the Light Enclave. FRS Ranks There are 6 ranks in the FRS: -Jedi Padawan -Jedi Knight/Dark Jedi Knight -Jedi Sentinel/Dark Jedi Enforcer -Jedi Consular/Dark Jedi Templar -Jedi Arbiter/Dark Jedi Oppressor -Jedi Council/Dark Jedi Council Each rank has their own unique robes that can be made by any Jedi if they invest in the Jedi Artisan Tree (and are tradeable). You will be unable to wear a higher tier robe until you achieve that rank. [image: 3pW5n59.png] Example of some FRS robes Once you decide to join the FRS and choose an enclave you now suffer from Jedi Visibility. Meaning that Rank 1 members (Padawans) are visible to other players and can be attacked if they are wearing their robes and have their saber equipped. Similar to being Special Forces in GCW, but different in that you cannot attack players until they attack you. Simply removing your saber and robe will remove that visibility and you can go about your day visiting various places and searching the bazaar etc. Rank 2 (Jedi Knight/Dark Jedi Knight) and above are permanently Special Forces, but similar to Rank 1, cannot attack another player unless they attack the Jedi first (Opposing SF players are fair game). Include other intricacies here -Okay Chavex, that sounds cool. I picked my Enclave, now how do I rank up? In order to progress up the FRS ladder, you must earn FRS XP. FRS XP is awarded to PvP kills of opposing Enclave members. Meaning if you are a Light Enclave member, you have to kill Dark Enclave members or vice versa. There are some restrictions to FRS XP; FRS XP cannot be gained in Battlefields, Group members/Guild members are not eligible for FRS XP. FRS Tokens In addition to FRS XP, FRS kills also will grant FRS Tokens. Similar to any other token in the game, you can stockpile these tokens and purchase items from the FRS Vendors which are located at each Enclave (remember, you also get a fast travel command to the Enclaves). [image: 136-5d9c1b2ae0cf-1709420337851.png] Items on the FRS Vendors Achieving/Maintaining Ranks: Similar in concept to GCW Ranks, there is Decay associated with FRS ranks. There is also a weekly cap on FRS XP/FRS Tokens that you can get in one week. Meaning that it will take more than one week to achieve certain ranks. This is intended, and the higher ranks are to be rewarded to those who are able to maintain a steady strain of FRS XP. Bounties: Each FRS kill you achieve, you will automatically have a bounty placed upon your head, and each subsequent kill will increase that bounty. Jedi need to keep their heads on a swivel, as they are more than likely always being hunted. Opt Out: -Okay Chavex, I tried it, I didn't like it, do I have to hide in my house all the time now? No, you don't. For those that want to keep their Jedi PvE and not be part of the FRS, you can use the command: /resignFromFRS That will take you out of the FRS, you will lose your rank and available cloaks, but at the same time no longer have to worry about visibility, being locked SF, etc. The choice is yours. --STILL A WORK IN PROGRESS-- Historical reactions: Like × 1
