There are a lot of players that do not have toons that have gear slots that can be filled. They will miss out on omegas if left as is. Can this be adjusted?
I actually kind of like the activity comments to an extent but could care less of the mods. We use Line so for an officer it's nice to kind of see people's activity. Should be able to filter it. I'd be fine just seeing people leveling toons. Leave gear and mods out
Go to settings, guild setting, announcement -> OFF/ON
True, but it's a bit too 'all or nothing' - the raid notifications were useful, finding out that 'Dave has leveled Ugnaught to 5*' is less so. At least if they had a tab for these and a tab for regular chat it would help keep them separate. Right now this just pushes actual conversations off screen
+1 this really screws over any of us who have spent money and deep rosters. I am almost exclusively raid gear/new gear locked on all toons. Not fair I lose out on daily omega because I spent money.

Great update gentlemen, well done. One small issue though, where is Scarif Rebel Pathfinder? Can you guys please at least tell us your intentions? Would love to farm him, or at least know where he's going. Thanks.
Can we get rid of this activity again for 80+? Its a serious barrier to getting an omega each day if you didn't sandbag and leave a bunch of junk characters undergeared. Given how long it's going to take to get to 85 (where presumably it goes away again),I feel this wasn't considered, unless you just dont intend for us to get our daily activities each day, as we'll be stuck dumping hundreds of energy into farming a blue gear slot for characters we dont even intend to use.
If you were at cap how do you not have hundreds of low level gear pieces?
I do. I have pretty much no one that can take them. I'm good for maybe 2 weeks before I have to start farming blues/purples for losers like Mob Enforcer and Night Sisters. Its going to take months to get to 85 (and then the cap will raise again).
Moreover, this kind of achievement forces you to play in a counterintuitive way. Keep playing long enough, and you have to farm chump guys to mule pieces on one at a time. When you can gear a new guy, it wants you dole those out rather than equipping everything at once. This is the ONLY daily activity like that. Everything else you can play/spend normally. Imagine if the "play 3" arena required you to do so after payout.
We shouldnt have to sandbag to get our omegas. Get rid of this ****.

Kidding aside, the recent update was a great boost to the forums it seems. As updates go, it could have been worse. Trust me, I've seen worse. Try overnight 31 professions become 9, and your AI/HUD looks like it was made by Fisher Price.
well... after initial disappointment that there is no new content immediately available I think that everything in this release is expected...
Increase level cap, new gear levels with new gear which of course should be harder to farm, new LS,DS, cantina levels
I think that main drawback of this release is that it is partial - when new ability levels will be added they will require levels 81-85 and everything will come on place...
of course new Guild chat "features" are confusing ... but come on - so many posts just for this?!? and that someone lost some omegas from double drops... this cannot be game changer I think
EDIT: I think that maybe this daily activity can be a problem....
In the Tank Challenge you get a piece of equipment I've never seen a use for on any character. I assumed with the level increase, all those stored pieces would find use. But I still see no one who needs them. Are they just forgotten about?

If you refresh each energy 2x every day, it will take 48 days.
I agree it's a little silly, but the upgrade a mod is the same kind of thing. And I can't fathom someone that doesn't have scrubs with which to throw crappy gear pieces on when you can't gear a toon you care about on a few days.
Also, once you hit 81, you can get Omegas from the ability mat challenge.
@eajessie why bring back daily gear requirements on toons? This prevents those that are at max gear from obtaining daily omega. I don't think it's fair to penalize those who have spent time and money trying to max gear their toons

No, this is not a viable option as it would disable Raid notifications as well, and we want those...
Thanks

The fixed payout times are the worst part of this game and makes it absolutely family-unfriendly.
Yeah! Best change in this update! No kidding.
Sorry but what that exactly means? what was problem and how they fixed it?
Edit: I mean is it just typo or change behavior?
