XD I'm usually online about 9pm :) So on Tuesday's I'm just not around ;) I like my green bar so making sure to have the full 20+ hour log out time helps!

Apparently there was another bug to do with when you got access- early access people couldn't add post launch and vice versa. But if that is fixed... XD I'm just sad I can craft medium and heavy armour but not light or I'd be posting all my crafted items to my Sithys ;) That comes under Synthweaving doesn't it? Nevermind cafted my first piece of "pretty" armour last night, and finally did the last mission on Taris (no escape). I let Thana live. I love her. Well not so much, but loved watching her reactions to all the light side choice I made ;)

I am desperate to get kit as close to Shae as possible, finally worked out how many commendations needed for each part :) And for my Sithy girls as close to that iconic purple set too, so a spot of time of the imperial fleet I think is needed....

It'd be nice to group up, I really have no social points- partly due to this bug and just never finding people I know! Had a few random "join group" requests which always turned out well :) But they also tended to happen after 11pm when I was about to log out. Possibly the Aussies. "Thanks mate." kind of suggests yeah....


Also having had a month between Eyris and Tykhi means I am enjoying my time on Korriban. Got to level two between the ramp and stairs, so I think I may be improving.. ;)

I have a tumblr, slowly adding old screenies to it: http://shaevizlarules.tumblr.com
Have actually managed to work the mouse to travel rather than keyboard! Still use a mix to reduce wrist strain. Still having trouble with jumps. So there are a few datacrons I have not been able to get to.

Just dinged level 50 with my Jedi knight today :D Spent the last day or so doing the first level republic flashpoint (Esseles) with low level players for the social points, so find me online if you like, I'll be playing Anaria tonight (staying with her for a while, still have tons of my plot to go).

That's such a neat idea, having a separate Tumblr for SWTOR :) I thought about it when I started playing, but it's a good idea, seeing as I play so much these days! So I've started http://postcardsfromilum.tumblr.com/ I just got my jedi knight to Ilum, and ran around like a tourist taking screenshots :)

I'm hopeless with jumping too, I haven't found many datacrons at all. Will have to spend some time going back to all the lower level planets and having a proper look. Also trying to decide which speeder to buy, now that I have my level 3 speeder training...

Can't wait for the 1.2 patch! :D

You guys probably already know about this posted on the Games Console section of TechDay.co.nz on Wednesday ... be quick though - you have to register your transfer by 4:00pm Tuesday afternoon!
Local Star Wars TOR players given chance to transfer characters

Local fans of Star Wars: The Old Republic are being offered a chance to transfer characters they’ve built up on overseas servers to the servers in Asia Pacific, but only if players act fast.

In a message to SWTOR players in the region, publishers BioWare say kiwi players have until 4:01pm on April 24 to register their characters for transfer.

To qualify for the transfer, players will have to have purchased their copy of the game and entered their product registration code before February 28, which was just before the Asia Pacific servers went live. Characters created after this time don’t qualify for the transfers.

BioWare will begin processing the transfers at 10pm on April 24, and it may take up to seven days to complete them all. The transfers can take up to three hours, and during this time (the hours, not the days) players won’t be able to use those characters, or log on to that server.

Check out the SWTOR FAQ for more on how the transfers will work. We understand the registration page wasn’t working a short while ago but it should be live soon if it’s not already.

Well, looks like I won't be transfering my characters - no way to keep my names/legacy (having all 8 classes rolled on one server), and that's an important part of the rp side of the game for me. But I really like The Harbinger server, and it's very rare to notice any lag (for us anyway).

Loving the current world event, got all 9 codex entries and the title - was my first time grouping up to take on a world boss, we got all 3 :)

Such an awesome game! :D

Fun to meet fellow forum member MDB in-game last night :) (...the screen-caps are on Kristy's computer; can see about getting something posted here shortly).

I completely forgot to take caps myself! But I have finally updated with a few different ones of the last week:



Looking for the rest of the havock kit, might not happen until after it is needed ;)

With a bit of co-ordination, Matt and I meet up on Ilum :) We usually play on my laptop as it's spec'd for the game, so it's not often we can both log in.

So.. it is so much easier when you group up ;)

I got invited to the Infernal Knights guild just a few days ago and today a couple of us grouped up and just squeaked out of a mission ;)

Well we need to turn the mission in but still :) And it helped me level up a fair bit ;)

Two mercs can work together if one has a tank companion and the other a healer. ;)

So it turned out easier to get to 50 (jumped ahead to Corellia and did many of those side missions and main planet mission) than to complete my class mission on Voss. However I really wanted a pretty screen shot and to make sure I could get this front camera angle (ie stop fighting and yet not die) so back to Voss for the last 2,000 XP of level 49 :)

I have better screen shots of my armour. But this is a set I will not give up at any stage ;) It is just too perfect. Colour scheme is so very Zam but armour shapes are Shae.

I am going to do a fashion show post though as some of the sets I have had to wear were ridiculous ;)
