Came back to the game and started a new toon about a week ago, I've been gone since about 3 months after the games initial release. I've since finished my class story and got to 65. I currently have all 208 gear with 1 or 2 pieces from a hardmode flashpoint, I think they're 212 or 216?
I'd like to start running ops soon but for now I am really enjoying playing solo and running a quick flashpoint here and there. Hard Mode Flashpoints seem to have an insane queue time for me the last 2 days on Jedi Covenant. What are all the solo options I have to keep progressing in gear that might not be dailies? I've always hated doing them but if its my only option at this point playing solo I guess I can deal with it for now.
Basically I only play about 2 hrs a night atm and would like to get some opinions how to make the most out of that short period of time and still get some decent lootz.
I played some 3 years ago and just came back to the game in April. I ran about 3 ops with a guild before they just stopped because no one was logging in. I mostly just level new characters now. It only takes a short while before you have all the gear you can buy with crystals from dailies. I haven't run any HM FPs because I can't stand waiting in queues. FYI, I'm also on Jedi Covenant and I think this week has not been normal because everyone has been doing the new chapter just released. So yeah, ops have been about non-existant. Otherwise there's always a few being organized in chat if you are on the Fleet.
Personally, I've learned to be satisfied with 208/216 gear from crystals for my gearing up. And once I get my jedi knight to lvl 65 (48 now), I'll probably take a break because there's really not much of an end-game. People run the OPs for their alts and have run them MANY times - they don't take kindly to newbs who don't know the fights yet.
I did really enjoy the story line on this new character so completing a few more of them has definitely been a thought of something I'd enjoy. I only have the Bounty Hunter and Imperial Agent completed so far and have really wanted to try a run on a Republic toon.
I'll start giving the dailies a shot tonight and see how I like them. OP's may come for me one day, but right now I'm just having casual fun and I don't want to be serious enough to watch videos so people dont yell at me lol.
