SWTOR: Catch-All

Just your name. Not your character.

Well still, I'm very attached to the Eleima Stargazer moniker. ^_^

Strangely, one of the things that helped nudge me off my subscription was when they merged servers and I lost three of my favorite characters names. It was just odd having gone through the entire story as these character and suddenly their names were changed because someone else on the new server had already used the names. I had no idea I'd gotten attached to their identity as specific characters. It probably didn't help that I'd named all of my empire characters after some of the more obscure Roman emperors.

Your names are safe as long as: you're a sub, or the character is level 30+, or you've logged into the character recently.

I've already got my eye on a couple of names I'm hoping to reclaim, though at least a few are off-limits since they're level 50+ characters already.

I recently started playing again because FFXIV made me sad. I happened to put my guys on Jedi Covenant as well, and if anyone wants to put me on the f-lists to go punching things now and again, please feel free. I'll most likely be on my Commando, Throatpunch, or my Sith Sorc, Charitable. I'm pushing the Commando to 55 this weekend and my sorc is kinda mid-level.

MrDevil, Eliema, and I just started new characters on the Republic side. Got to lvl 11 last night. Plan on hitting Coruscant together at some point in the future. All we need is a Consular to round out our group. Any takers? Only downside is we play at UCT+2 and UTC+9 times.

I'd be down except I've already leveled a Jedi Shadow and have absolutely no inclination to level a Sage. I have a Sharpshooter Smuggler and Jedi Knight Guardian in the 15-or-something range if you guys ever need a 4th to help out with heroics or instances, though.

That would be fun if you could join up. I am going Gunslinger. MrDeVil909 is going Commando (hey-o! I'll be here all night, folks. Tip your waitress.). Eliema is going Sentinel. Sage would be great, but a Guardian works good too.

Cool. My Guardian's name is Throatjab.

... I am not creative in the name dept.

If anyone gets a 'hello' or friend request from someone with a name beginning with 'Zul' it's probably me. Both Eleima and mwdowns were thinking I was some weird creeper when I didn't introduce myself.

Had a good time on Ord Mantell with mwdowns, with 2 people it's so easy to just blaze through content. I did die once when I decided to go farm XP while waiting for him to turn in some quests because I aggroed a couple of scavenger leaders when I took a shortcut down a cliff.

The game is pretty fun though.

Yeah, I think we ended up doing every available quest on that planet. Just ripped through it. When we pick up Eliema at Coruscant, man, I pity the fools that face use. We will blaze a large path of destruction!

My dude is, apparently, 18. I didn't realize that til I dusted him off last night. He's about halfway through the last area before you get your ship. I can leave him in reserve till you guys are about done on Coruscant and/or feel free to bug me to help you guys fill out groups for heroics or whatever.

Post when you guys hit the late 20's and 30's

I got toons all over the place, except for high levels, though I really want to work on that. Characters are as follows:

Republic - A'naha, Gunslinger lvl 11 (part of the GWJ leveling pact, so I'm only gonna level her up with those guys); X'errik, Sage lvl 19; Iphradiun, Guardian lvl 23; H'ooper, Vanguard lvl 29.

Empire - S'ialla, Mercenary lvl 34; Elshilell, Operative lvl 29; Ba'salus, Marauder lvl 25; Ionala , Assassin lvl 23.

Feel free to friend me up and join me if any of you guys are on (just be sure to tell me who you are lest I think you're some rando creeper like MrDeVil909). I've kinda stalled out on my Empire toons and want to get them going again. Problem with being an alt-aholic is I forget how I'm supposed to play each character.

I really want to play some more Huttball, but it's hard coordinating with my guild because of the time differences.

What server you all on ? I'm still playing regularly, and have characters at various levels and classes. I'm on Red Eclipse.

As for being an alt-aholic, I sympathise with you, mwdowns. The easiest way for me to deal with it was to alternate between Imp and Rebels Scum characters who were effectively similar - so I alternated my Agent with my Smuggler, for example.

Most are on Jedi Covenant, but as luck would have it, I have two characters on Red Eclipse, a Jedi Knight (EleimaStargazer) and a Sith Inquisitor (Aludria I think). They still haven't left their home planets though.

Let me know if you ever need a hand, I play in GMT TZ.

Sure thing! I'm a few hours ahead of you, GMT+4, so that might complicate things, though.

All of my characters ended up on The Ebon Hawk (RP server). I'd love to have some company, but my hopes are low.

When is the dogfighting expansion coming out? Also, how is the 4v4 PvP? Is there a winning combo? Last time I played (long time ago) it'd probably be Juggernaut, Power Tech, Power Tech, healer.

Dogfighting beta or early access starts in December. Not sure of the whole schedule. I've only done the 4v4 a couple times with randoms so not sure of the meta game there yet, but from regular pvp before that... Power Techs got nerfed or all the good players stopped playing them. There were a few I could barely dent and now they're like butter.

PTs/Vanguards got nerfed quite a bit, though they're actually pretty strong for arenas if you run middle tree (instead of the old right tree standby). Tons of AOE damage + slows + 30% AOE damage taken reduction.

We run a group of 3 at lunch and enjoy the 4 v 4 Arenas. 2 Jedi Shadow and 1 Scoundral to heal. Pretty lethal, but we just cleared 30 so the 30-54 group is proving a bit tougher due to the additional skills they have that we do not.

We are on Jedi Covenant if you want to join up - Rukhha 35 Jedi Shadow - On at lunch (12-1 PST)

I just started playing this on the Alliance side on Jedi Covenant (luckily, I just picked that at random). Currently running a Han Solo character (forgot the class name. :X) up to level 10 to get the full race unlock, but I'll likely be rolling a Jedi to be a healer after that.

I'll pop back in with both names when I'm done with that.

Single again? Might as well play an MMO when I'm in downtime without much to do. Stupid getting dark so early. Hate walking for exercise in the dark, especially the way people drive around here.

If you play a smuggler instead of a mercenary, you can be a Han Solo healer and don't have to start a jedi.

Just saying...

I listed my characters a little upthread, so feel free to friend me up. MrDeVil909 should pop on here and tell us his characters. We're still grouping every Wednesday, though we lost Eliema (just the gall of her having an actual life that interferes with gaming?! Madness, I say!!). We'd be happy to group with more.

I just realized as a West Coaster I may be able to swing this. What time do you guys get started? I can sometimes play until midnight my time which is about 7 PM Australian.

My characters atm are:

Zula'jama - Sith Marauder lvl 14. Essentially my main that I'm levelling whenever not playing with mwdowns.

Zula'tirril - Jedi Shadow lvl 15. This is the leveling pact one I've switched to once I realised the silliness of doing a male trooper. (Jennifer Hale is the female voice)

Zula'onath is the new female trooper, only lvl 2 and having just finished Ord Mantell she probably won't get much attention for a while.

would be cool to group with you JD. I'm usually on about 11am-12pm my time, GMT+2.

It's not so much "life" as it is "work so you can feed yourself and your family", you know. And I do get some game time, it's just not in the middle day so it's harder to accommodate your Japanese timezone, Mwdowns.

Yeah, it's an oddity of my schedule that I'm playing during the day on week days and that happens to work out for Japan time. It's understandable it doesn't often mesh with other players.

Eleima, do you have any Imperial characters around level 15-ish? It would be fun to run that storyline with company, maybe on a Monday? Or would you like to roll new Imperial characters?
