Galactic Season 9 Progress and Goals

We're eight weeks into Galactic Season 9 at this point, which means that the first players are getting close to hitting level 100. I tend to think of that time as the season's unofficial halfway point, because while there are technically still eighteen weeks left (meaning we're actually only about a third of the way in), this tends to be when I'm about halfway done with the meta achievements and thereby my own seasonal goals.

I've got to say I'm actually really enjoying this season so far, despite the lack of a narrative theme. Flashpoints are just my jam, and even if I miss the cut scenes, it's been nice to run more of them again, especially on servers other than Darth Malgus where I'd done very little grouping/pugging prior to this season.

My "secondary legacies" are all making good progress as well, and the other week I hit level 80 on Imperial side for the first time on Leviathan, Tulak Hord and Satele Shan in quick succession, meaning I now have two max-level characters on each of these servers as well. Not exactly an amazing feat, but considering how thin I spread myself playing on all servers, progress on the ones where I don't play as much has been pretty slow and even these minor milestones feel quite meaningful.

Back in Galactic Season 3 (which feels like forever ago now... hard to wrap my head around the fact that this was only less than three years ago) I actually ended up setting myself the crazy stretch goal of doing the full meta achievement on all servers - this ultimately failed because the advancement of the seasonal reputation (which was one of the things that was required) was so heavily time-gated (and most importantly, had no catch-up mechanic) that I was already too far behind by the time I even started getting interested in the idea, but I did still end up completing the 100 weekly objectives on all servers. I think my ultimate takeaway from that was that while I felt pretty proud and pleased with myself, I probably wasn't going to go and do that again because of how much effort it took.

Except here we are three years later, and I'm actually considering it again this season! The simple reason why is that aside from the 100 weekly objectives, both of the other meta achievements are about doing flashpoints, which is the part I'm having the most fun with and want to do more of anyway. I'm not 100% committed to the idea yet - we'll see how things play out over the next few weeks, but I've definitely been thinking about it.
