[ANewStart]

So they releasing combatlogs now, does this mean the game is getting damage meters?

No, it means the game is getting combat logs.

[Glorious Leader]

omg... dem textures.

mmmm sooooo good

[Koalachan]

I'm downloading all the stuff for the ptr, so I can see more than what is in the notes themselves. Kinda sucks that I'll have to level from 1, when I am still trying to level some alts on live. According to one post I saw, the family connections for the legacy are as follows:

child
adopted child
Ally
Rival
Spouse
Sibling

Playing on the test server the new improved character textures look really nice! Anyway now I really need to upgrade my graphics card since its dying when I put everything to high. :x

[shadowstep]

awww a patch this big and not even a sidenote on the main page....
this forum should change its name to WOWCHAMPIONS cause its clear that you care for only one MMO...

Feel free to add to the discussion in the suggestions & feedback section dedicated for idea's as unique as yours. - Cula

Guess we just have to wait till someone gets that far on the PTS :P
Legacy Unlocks at what, lvl 20? I forgot.

legacy unlocks when you finish Act1, usually in the 28-30ish area.

Id love to see server transfers as well, that is a must!

Yes, you may be able to heal yourself for 3% of your HP every second consuming 1 Focus at a time, but your Rage DPS just took a roughly 20-30% hit.

Enrage, use the ability when carrying the ball. Win. Every little helps. Do the same thing in pve when your low to help the healers out.

something wierd is up with the engine on the pts. Had max settings + highres textures and I get about 20 more fps in WZs compared to what I get on live with high setting and w/o textures

Been talking to people about this. Apparently they've been working on things, to make it all run better.

Probably some optimisation has been done. I've never had WZ lag, just in Ilum with like 50 people. Can't wait for all these fixes/addins. Now just to finish ME3 and finish levelling my alt PT.

Rated pvp and nerf to my trooper, instead of actually giving us a chance to stand our ground in 1v1... I think it's about time I'm rerolling a sentinel.
Oh well, as long as I can have top pvp gear stat wise without having a need for rating and/or any kind of group/premade, I guess I'll stick around at one character or another.

Sentinel/Marauder will likely be FOTM, but then they'll likely get the nerf. On the other hand I talked to some of my friends who got on the PTS with their guilds - one of them being a bh healer, he said that while the nerfs are noticeable, they do not make him useless in PvE and can still be dangerous in PvP. He can't duo (tank/healer combo) against 4 people indefinitely now tho.

His PvE report comes from killing the new World Boss on Voss in 16 man, doing with 3 BH healers and 1 Sorc.

There is good stuff in 1.2 definately. Lets hope SWTOR is not going to die. I hope they will implement server transfer soon.

Indeed, server transfers would be a dream come true. That is all I want BioWare to focus on after this truck load of amazing changes. :P

[Darkhaus]

Loads and loads of good stuff coming, too many to list. I hope this will allso get ppl back and the low populated servers would get some more life into them.

Getting some more FPs is great news, as my computer is running on its edges even i got nearly everything on low.

As much as I am sure doing that was fun, it's probably to the good over all that a BH can't do that now

Not sure how I see the point in sprint at lvl 1 - seems better to just make people run abit faster then.

Interesting point. It would make sense for them to just increase base walk speed and get rid of sprint altogether. Who in their right mind would turn that off at lvl 1? LOL

I'm sure they will in the near future. And while it will probably be a paid service, I'm sure they will offer free transfer from/to low pop servers to try to balance things out a bit.

You can't "sprint" in combat...
