OR double drops?

Any incoming? Maybe I am blind, but I didn't see an announcement...

    They don’t want to risk the fat payout they set up for themselves with this event. No double drops for you.

    The three weeks notice (you can barely call it that) is already tough. But no double drops is actually a bit nasty...

    Even if they do, 2 times zero is still zero. I've been farming zaalbar for about a month now and I've gotten 28 shards (8 times a day times 30ish days = 28 out of 240 attempts? So about 10ish% drop rate?)

    Zaalbar has been farmable for 14 days. You might have missed day 1 to farm and then the drop rate actually checks out.

    Dang, thanks for that. I might be thinking of someone else. I've been farming a few for a while now. My favorites is two lines worth and I've even taken a few off recently. lol

    So what abt HK47 ??
  • Options
    HK47 is FTP.... easily accessible... that would just be too easy... apparently... it would be fun and a relief but that isn’t what this game is about at this point

    double drops coupled with a 50% reduction in the drop rate....

    What's worse is kyno will soon jump in here and LIE about how they don't do this

    actually, i just ask people to actually prove claims. saying they do things with no actual proof, is a lie.

    FYI, I dont lie.

    I think LIE must have referred to the Long Island Expressway.

    Apparently the truth is always a matter of the view point. So in the end people can always find a view point in which they tell the truth.

    My truth is that i think online games should have limits at money spending because of the health of people and the whole game by itself. The truth from your side would be most likely that everyone has a free decision as its your job. Sure it is, but its like selling crack...you can do it and people have a free choice - but do all have that choice in reality? Truth is not clear...and depends on the viewpoint. A lie is in the end same as the opposite the truth depending on the view point.

    CG can make any rules they want. This is only the third "Journey" they have done so far. What crew will they use for the Darth Revan Journey when they release him in 3 months? (And release the characters you need for him in 2 months and make them farmable in 2.5 months.)

    HK47 is fairly integral to the Revan storyline, so is Visas Marr. It is curious that they aren't considered "Old Republic" toons. Are they just too easy to get? Is it because so much of the playerbase already has them 7 star?

    Visas is integral to Meetra Surik's story, not Revan's.

    There doesnt need to be a different perspective, if you tell the truth.... it's kinda how truth works.

    So a voluntary game, is like crack...
    (Just to be clear, this game has no physically addictive properties)

    You do realize that many people have different levels of income and how they want to spend their free time and money on hobbies, right? People choose to be here, and choose to spend(or not) to play how they want to play. This also has nothing to do with what the devs do. Many players are happy to just play the game, how they want, when they want.

    Putting your perspective into the game, you see must have, and a need. This is not there, unless you want it to be there. That's perspective.

    While I agree with the rest.. this I do not. Yes everyone can spend their money however they chose. This game and all games DO have addictive properties tho. They plan the colors and flashing lights (like the unlock or ☆ increase) to tickle the pleasure centers of the brain just like casinos do. Anyone who doesn't think games are addictive is lying to themselves and others.

    This I agree with. Like many mental health problems, because it can't be physically measured like a crack addiction, it gets less attention - but that doesn't make it any less an addiction. Mental health addictions can be prayed on just like physical ones.

    You can see it already, games targeting addicts/kids - it's going to end up having the same black mark that cigarette companies/ads did for targeting the same group.

    Personally I vote @Kyno for president - but yeah, you can't downplay the psychology of any MTX game now, certainly no less than a casino.

    So do commercials and TV shows, marketing doesnt make something addictive, it makes it desirable. Yes we all know that there are people that are more susceptible to this and have addictive nature to them, but that doesnt change what the game is, that is what the person brings to this situation.

    They did double drops for JTR, which was an easier farm than this.

    I really expect double drops this weekend

    It's possible, but usually those are announced during the content update like the one from yesterday. So it seems unlikely.
