C2-N2's mission could be a good solution if they switched it from Weekly to daily. Right now it would take 40 weeks to fill the bar that way.<br /><br />The reason you don't like heroics is probably the same reason I don't like heroics: Player Competition for mob spawns. Daily's also have the same problem. Let's add "changes to the way mob tapping mechanics work" to the list :)The Nicksternoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1538233114133115363.post-39624674382072303032016-12-19T22:47:39.727+00:002016-12-19T22:47:39.727+00:00My oldest was taunting me about it being Life Day ...My oldest was taunting me about it being Life Day on SWTOR, knowing I'd hate any reference to that blasted Christmas Special.Redbeardhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05306063084983025771noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1538233114133115363.post-9508258380576692822016-12-19T14:55:49.838+00:002016-12-19T14:55:49.838+00:00As someone who hasn't really enjoyed heroics v...As someone who hasn't really enjoyed heroics very much since 4.0, I just do C2-N2's weekly mission on all of my alts every week; that saves you a lot of box turn-ins. Also, it's not like you "need" to raise your influence level with the specialists to 20 on every alt.Shintarhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16758343475446510635noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1538233114133115363.post-43014519545641122142016-12-19T14:40:30.519+00:002016-12-19T14:40:30.519+00:00As long as we're compiling life day lists for ...As long as we're compiling life day lists for Santa-ware, I might as well throw mine in:<br /><br />Every time you want to play an alt through KOTFE you need 320 boxes for his alliance, and another 30 to turn in to the Star Fortress companions. Currently the only way to get boxes is to grind heroics at 1 box per heroic. At this point I view heroics as a chore, not a fun activity.<br /><br />It's time to cut down on the number of boxes you need, and possibly have them drop from planetary dailies. At least then I could have some variety from week to week.The Nicksternoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1538233114133115363.post-48975726931418977742016-12-18T16:41:31.386+00:002016-12-18T16:41:31.386+00:00You're right!

Within, the chap stated that the system had actually detected me as <i>ineligible</i> for the reward, and kindly put forward my case for review (on the assumption that I hadn't received the statue) since he agreed that 35 hours over 5 years is next-to-nothing.<br /><br />I quickly winged off another polite e-mail informing them that this wasn't necessary and outlined the confusion of the automated system's verdict versus what had actually happened.<br /><br />So yeah, it seems that maybe this gap is not as intentional as many people believe. Their automated systems are just as unpredictable as the rest of them, it seems. :PCalphyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15809660484854758097noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1538233114133115363.post-59458259868106737682016-12-18T15:09:34.757+00:002016-12-18T15:09:34.757+00:00The Festive Tauntaun showed up on the PTS back in ...The Festive Tauntaun showed up on the PTS back in November 2013 (http://dulfy.net/2013/11/16/swtor-rakghoul-resurgence-event-coming-soon-new-life-day-items/). It has a red lightbulb of a nose back then, so I imagine copyright infringement was a possible issue.<br /><br />It's hard to believe that was three years ago that seems both so far and so recent game vs real life-wise.
