they look like a rabid version of a bothan if they had rabies from getting bit by that weird rat species :'D

I personally think that having them on the daily vendor is more of a burden to the economy. I'd actually rather not have them on a vendor at all. It would force people to seek those who have large stockpiles of resources in storage to sell them. potentially jump starting the economy.

Greetings Evolve!

Its the Trickster coming in with an important announcement.

We have found an issue with the Empire/Remembrance day vendors and they have decided to go on strike temporarily. We apologize for any inconvenience or delay that this may cause you in your festivities in game. We are working diligently with both the Empire and the Rebellion to get those pesky vendors back on track and find a resolution!

That said you can still partake in any of the other festivities available to you to earn tokens, but the vendors will be unavailable.

Kind regards,

Evolve Staff.

IIRC, no, this won't work. You have to have completed the mission to be able to use it. I'm 99.9% positive that it's just like the Style-1 Vaks, CG-Squint, and Heavy-X.

always worth trying. even if it doesnt work then you have 2 jsfs :'D

Agree. Its a pain in the rear. Although if you have an imperial alt. afaik you can do the questline and trade it to a rebel toon. I could be wrong, I havent done the JSF quest in years.

Rez thanks for the response. I am just wondering if there is a way to swap out exo's without building a new saber.

Not currently no, your best bet would be to craft regular 5th gen sabers as to not waste valuable looted ones while testing.

bumpity bump

im not opposed to any of these things. They dont seem over the top or completely game breaking. i'd like to see bounty hunter get some love. It would also maybe help with people investing more points into it rather than dipping just to be able to hunt.

I made a similar suggestion here, but for the chu gon dar cube buffs https://www.swgevolve.com/threads/254/

For a total of 2 years, off and on in between breaks, mainly the PC I had broke and had tobuild a new one to play. I played on the Kettemoor server.

What type of work do you do?
Perform residential and commercial lot tree removal, trimming and stump removal for at least 20 years. Get to drive the work trucks and mess with the fancy equipment we have to do the job.

What does a typical Star Wars Galaxies day consist of for you?
Logging in, and checking harvesters , updating their maintenance and power if needed , then take inventory and check to see if there are orders to be fulfilled and keep the stock fresh and plenty currently on my food and drink vendor. Then proceed to socialize with members that are online while trying to organize the never ending mess in my house and decorate one bit at a time to make it my home for all my crafting needs. Crack jokes and be a weirdo, you know the basic usual stuff.

What was the race and profession of your very first character?
A Female blue-hued Twi’lek named Simara Kestalyn. I started out with Marksman from first launch.

What is the one thing you’ve always wanted to be/do in Star Wars Galaxies on live that you've done(or have yet to do here)?
I want to be able to leadby example in the expertise for crafting, resources and all aroundsage advice. The one thing about SWG that it has cultivated acomplex social environment to where we can exchange jokes and ideasand take things to many different levels and perspectives to our gameenvironment. It has even developed some real life relationsihps withplayers in the game.

What other hobbies or activities do you take part in, other than playing Star Wars Galaxies?
Woodworking, taking care of my doggos, learning new things every day from making gadgets and devices to making portable tool chests.

What race and profession is your main character?
Twi’lek , Master Swordsman, Master Assassin, Master Smuggler.

What do you like the most about the profession you have chosen for your main character?
While solo or in groups, I put out the damage. Mainly I’ve always been the main DPS in groups since it is the best job I can do, and I attempt to do it well. I have the capability to put out the hurt and once I I’m “warmed-up” I really shine in my role with my build I have chosen.

What faction is your main character?
REBEL FOR LIFE!

What is your favorite player owned ship?
While the YT-2400 / 1200series roped me into loving and learning about Star Wars. I will always fly an X-Wing in game. Though the Havoc ship I saw is a good runner up.

What is your favorite ground vehicle?
While the BARC is my main go to for speed and travel. But I have always favored the AV-21. I love how the whole design is a good example of hubris and the land boats I used to ride around in as a child.

How did you choose your main character's name?
Simara Kestalyn, was a name I chose for a character I had back when I played Everquest - but the incarnation of her name I came up with out of the blue. She has been many incarnations in games over the years that I have played. I’ve even developed her into a story as a main character of a science fiction world setting that I developed but never written out. Also it was a unique name that I could get when I made a character among the MMO’s I’ve played , until the movie The Ring came out. And people clamored to that since the girl’s name was Simara… Who knew?

What is your favorite planet and/or city and why?
Theed on Naboo, the open space and design of the city really makes you want to go explore what is around you, with the occasional bother of being scanned for contraband.

What is your favorite NPC?
EWOKS!

What are the most credits you have ever spent on purchasing a single item for one of yourcharacters?
On Evolve I spent 1 mil credits to buy an AV-21 that someone crafted. On Live I spent about 10 mil to buy a crafting suit for Droid Engineer to trade to pay fora player I knew to decorate my house.

What do you like best about SWG:Evolve?

When I was introduced to the concept of Evolve, I was really interested in the Expertise system that combine the ability of both systems of NGE and Pre-CU. Rezec at the time showed me a long time ago when Evolve was in it’s infant stages, testing the schematics to see if they worked, provided feedback on what could help make us unique or implement a vast chunk of Quality of Life changes for all of us. Now that is in Live, the ability to fast track an idea/build you have for your character, instead of grabbing missions, grinding xp to finally test your final setup. With the possiblity of Droid Commander in the works, as well as other upcoming changes that a lot of us as a player base have wanted in the Live version of the game for years. To see that come to life has reignited my passion and love for the game once again.

Describe your best experience playing Star Wars Galaxies.

Back on Live, I was strutting around looking at vendors, figuring things out and testing the waters. With other players waiting for the planetary transport to land, I looked around me for a second, and suddenly I was washed over with a series of feelings, that me here in the game, felt a sense of unique small part of the giant galaxy. From there it really helped me on the path to find my identity in game and in Real LIfe.

What is your favorite quest-line and/or place within Star Wars Galaxies and why?

My favorite place to explore is the Warren on Dantooine. It was the first place and exposure to some real basic puzzles and lore of the game outside the normal Rebels vs. Imp lore that is part of the game. You learn about some nasty experiments, try to survive by not getting eaten by said experiments and realizing when you reach a certain point when the AT-ST is inside, while being blasted by it, you wonder, “How the hell did they get that in here? “ And then when your done you get rewarded by reporting bad management.

Thanks DW for taking the time to answer our questions today!

It's being considered, and will be handled with a great degree of care to ensure that it feels as balanced as it can be. One of the other goals is to make more ships desireable to use in PvE and PvP, as the meta is only reall the "meta" because the vast majority of off-meta options are so bad in PvE to justify using. Even two-gun ships are harder to justify if they don't have the mass to use W10's, so you can throw one-gun ships right out the window at higher levels. Unless you're a self-proclaimed server's best pilot, anyway.

E-Weapons is a strong ability, for sure. It's already received a tweak to make it a bit more consistent coming up, but if it becomes too much of an issue we can either re-evaluate the window of time that it's active, or lower the output modifier to do less damage, or take more energy.

We'll burn that bridge when we come to it.

I want this to happen, I am horever skeptical at how this will affect the scope of how combat plays out in certain aspects. We already have certain metas that are objectively superior to most other options in the game. (EI: TIE Defender, Advanced X-wing ect.) my concern is this. How would it effect things if say you have a neutral pilot running a krayt with 3x RE 10 guns and the imperial pilot ability e-weapons?. food for thought. as i said at the beginning of my post. I want to see this happen. I am just concerned about how things will be balanced after it happens.

Fair point to the KSE. I didn’t mean remove the current method, just one more way to earn it.

Other items I just thought while driving.

-Din Djarin’s rifle(don’t know the name) skin to be applied over an ETK rifle. Someone has this code I just don’t remember who.
-Boba and/or Jango Fett’s jetpack as a wearable backpack. Boba’s definitely already exists.
-Portable BH terminal that shows all targets regardless of planet the hunter/target is on.

now theres some nifty ideas.

I like where you're going with this but the chosen items should be different.

The KSE should remain the same method of obtaining as it currently is. (reverse engineering specific parts to obtain the disk pieces)

and as for battle worn mandalorian armor, anything new like this iirc is reserved for planned future content. I would love to see an expansion to certain vendors especially the BH one.. I just think that these items are not a very good choice in this instance.

I will vote yes on the condition that your grenades are no longer ranged. You can only drop them at your feet and they also deal damage to the user.

Pilot commands MIGHT still have a / command available. remember a lot of the JTL stuff runs off of pre-cu keybinds and commands still.

you could try /commands such as /iff or /emergencyshields stuff like that. For a full list of commands. You can also do a // in chat it will display all known commands in your chat window.

beware though doing a // is a very long list.

I actually never realized this till now. Thanks for pointing it out! I agree that this should be either changed or updated in some capacity.
