So I’ve had some time to try out the crafting side of SWTOR, and I have to say… I started out all wrong. Everyone were saying how slicing is soooo good. So I leveled up slicing the first thing I did, but it doesn’t give much credits on an overpopulated server where everyone is busy [...]
Read more →There are three types of crew skills used for crafting in SWTOR: Crafting skills, gathering skills, and mission skills. Mission skills All of the mission skills have missions that will provide you with companion gifts. Giving gifts to your companions will raise their affection to you, so it’s a good thing. For your first companion [...]
Read more →This morning, after I just couldn’t sleep so I went up to do some gaming, the Starflake legacy was founded as I defeated the level 30 boss. This boss, for the Imperial Agent, gave me quite a bit of trouble. He has several CC abilities, so he puts my companion in stasis, then he knocks [...]
Read more →I’m such a noob. On Balmorra, I just rushed through quests and pursued the main quest line, when I suddenly ended up at Grey Star. This is a level 19 elite boss. He has several crowd control abilities, and rather high DPS too. So first attempt I tried to go at him with my Shiv [...]
Read more →…we are going to see the Emperor. BioWare are going to start sending out game access codes on the 13th Dec to the first people to preorder. The preorder was announced 21/7 and I preordered the 30/7. That should mean that I will get game access either 13th or 14th. Too bad I’m at work [...]
Read more →All posts on the SWTOR forum will be wiped before launch. So I took the liberty of transferring the results of a poll I made there onto here. I asked forum users before trying the beta-version of the game which side they were most eager to play, and then if that changed after trying out [...]
Read more →This post is supposed to be a small tutorial on how to play League of Legends, sort of a strategy guide. Let me start off by including a picture of the Summoner’s Rift map, which is the main battle arena for LoL (there is also Twisted Treeline, a 3-man map, and Dominion, a circular map). [...]
Read more →OK, so I tried out Garen in the jungle after the patch. It was a whole lot easier to survive, but it took me almost ten minutes to reach level 6. By comparison, I tried Udyr in the jungle. Took me less than 8 minutes to level 6, and he was way past level 8 [...]
Read more →As an introduction to Star Wars: The Old Republic for people who have never played an MMO game before, I have made an introductory movie. I did it “on the fly”, so maybe it isn’t extremely well thought through, but it should get you started with the most basic stuff, and give you a short [...]
Read more →Here are a couple of anaglyph stereo 3D images of Korriban. You need glasses to watch them, but several options are there to select what kind of 3D glasses you are using. Best results with nVidia 3D Vision, of course. If it doesn’t look 3D, you may have to click “swap”, because sometimes phereo (the [...]
Read more →These are the levels where you get companions for all the classes (roughly, of course, since it depends on when you do the class quests). It should be fairly obvious from the roles of each class which one you will stick with in different situations. Imperial Agent: 8 Kaliyo (tank) 20 Dr. Lokin (tank/healer) 30 [...]
Read more →One cool feature of SWTOR is the Datacron system. Most of them are hidden to the side, and several are very difficult to find. Some are also guarded by elite mobs. It’s a way of rewarding explorers, but it’s also a way to encourage exploring. For example, one Datacron on Korriban is easy to see [...]
