Alliance Crates need a Pity System.

I've been farming for the Remnant Underworld Trooper set since 2015 when the Alliance Crates came out. I'm STILL missing the Chest and Boots. It's absolutely insane. These crates NEED some kind of pity system in place because going over a decade without getting what I wanted is absolutely moronic.

Genuinely Crying

Spent 3 Months (IRL) saving to get enough for some pulls and all I got for it is a stupid C1 Mona literally 3 months of real life work down the toilet I'm actually sobbing :(

"Request Rate Limited" when sending messages.

I assume this has to be some kind of anti-spam filter, but I've looked everywhere and nobody has anything about this. I'm messaging a bunch of my friends through the messaging bit of the site, but it keeps giving me "request rate limited" when I try to send anyone a message. Any fixes?

Dynamic Encounters kinda ruin the vibe...

Don't get me wrong, from a gameplay perspective, I think that Dynamic Encounters are pretty neat. That said, the places that they are on particular planets makes the world feel slightly stupid instead of immersive.

For example, on Hutta, immediately leaving the Cantina at the very start of your journey and you're hit with a Dynamic Encounter. Or leaving the Dromund Kass Spaceport.

By FAR the worst offender for me is the Klor'slug Escape Dynamic Encounter in the Sith Academy. The place used to have an eerie, but civilized vibe that really made you feel like an Acolye or Sith Lord walking through the halls. Now you step inside and are instantly hit with some unfunny voiceline beamed straight into your skull and about 50 Klor'slugs running around the entire Academy. Once you leave the Academy, you're then also greeted by another Dynamic Encounter, where you once again get an Acolyte's voice beamed directly into your cranium and are told to kill some random other acolytes right infront of the Academy (even though violence between Acolytes isn't supposed to be allowed).

I always thought it'd be a better idea for Dynamic Encounters to be in the less-used areas of Worlds, like on Korriban in the Lower Wilds areas that you have no reason to go to anymore since they unlocked all the speeder points automatically. It just sucks the aura and vibe out of basically every area they're in.

Help With Pulls this Patch.

Hey Gamers, I've been really struggling with deciding how to spend my limited pulls this patch.

I have about 37 Pulls saved, I'm at 32 Pity with no Garuntee.

Currently, my 5 Main Teams are:

  • Kinich [C6R5] (Serpent Spine), Iansan [C6], Bennett [C6], Durin [C1R2]
  • Venti [C1R1], Bennett [C6], Albedo [C1R1] (Moonshard), Durin [C1R2]
  • Clorinde [C0R1], Chevreuse [C6], Fischl [C6], Durin [C1R2]
  • Zibai [C2R1], Illuga [C6], Columbina [C0R1], Linnea [C0R0]
  • Tartaglia [C1R1], Citlali [C0R0], Bennett [C6], Durin [C1R1]

I really want to go for Durin's C2 (He's my favorite character), but would Nicole even at C0R0 be more valuable for my account overall, or is the different between Nicole and Bennett not large enough to matter outside of my Venti Team?

And baring in mind I also want to save for Lohen (Who would replace Tartaglia in his current Team), so if possible I'd prefer not to have to pull for both Durin's C2, and Nicole while ALSO trying to pull for Lohen at C0R1 minimum.

I'll take any advice I can get (Except swapping Albedo for Faruzan in my Venti team, Chalk Boy Supremacy). My current Pull Priority is:

  1. Durin's C2
  2. Nicole C0R0
  3. Lohen C0R1

Thanks Gamers in Advance. :)

I'm using Durin. Who else?

My current plan is Lohen, Bennett, Durin, (??).

I'm not planning on pulling for Nicole. (I like MEN and Kissing MEN).

I get that it's an easy way to make group content while also making solo content, but it's actually really, really annoying.

If I'm doing a flashpoint, I HAVE to stick with doing the flashpoint all the way to the end. If I leave the instance, I lose my progress. I can't queue for PvP (or other Flashpoints) while doing a Flashpoint, or I lose all my progress when I leave the instance. I can't even hop into my Stronghold to grab something from a cargo hold because I lose all my progress.

Having now played for 15 years, I can easily say I infinitely prefer the stories set in-world than the ones in-flashpoint. I feel like I'm dragging myself through the story once we get to Forged Alliances, but at least it picks up again by Rishi (even if there are STILL two mandatory flashpoints), but since after Onslaught, every single significant mission has been an instanced Flashpoint that I HAVE to do all the way through in one sitting with no room to exit or do something else while I'm going through.

I can't be the only one that feels this way. Just let the solo instances of flashpoints save your location and mission progress if you leave. It CANT be that difficult.
