As a long time supporter of this game, I sometimes wish that a tech-based melee combat style was available.

The Academy. A repository of knowledge for new and experienced players. Gratitude for your dedication to this game and it's player base. (bows head)

Swtorista: "May the Force... or tech... be with you."

Me: "Swtorista slowly becoming a techpriest confirmed. Welcome to our fold, sister Stwtorista."

(A bit of Warhammer 40K humor for you all :P)

the best part is now everyone can add a Assassin/Operative style to their characters, makes things so much easier

If the devs really wanted to bring folks back, they need to create new classes, even if they're only a couple. Heck, just look at how some mmos still provide new classes a decade after release!

Personally, I wish we got a force-sensitive class for a ranged weapon like the sniper rifle. Or a tech finally getting to use a vibroblade or electrostaff.

I have recently started playing as a sith inquisitor as a mirauder, finding the combat a bit hard to grasp but I'll get there with time, I really appreciate you for making the academy, it's really helpful.

[garrett]

This is very cool. It makes me want to get back into the game…

[francisemv]

Game is in a rough place but your vids are still shining.

[BaeBunni]

Imperial Agent with scoundrel so I can be a real spy with a blaster preferably one that looks like it would be silent or a star wars bond would use lol.

I wish they had the option to swap combat styles the way you wanted. So like say your main is a sentinel, but you could swap to whatever you wanted in scenarios. For example switch to sage if you wanna heal, or switch to guardian if you wanna tank. So basically the ability to swap builds if you wish.

[eugenstash]

Thank you. This was so helpful as a returning player.

[savadious]

[HiddenPalm]

Welcome back! You've been missed.

How hard is it to get the light5/dark5 achievements? If I wanted to play as a Jedi Shadow doing the Sith Warrior story, how hard would that be to get as a returning player that never got super far in the story the last time I played?

Basically I want to RP as a former Jedi Padawan who moved on from the order who wants to change the Empire from within. I also like the consular animations (rocks and such) over the lightning that the inquisitors have.

I'm planning to get back into the game after leaving for a while. This will be interesting to see how it works in practice. I wouldn't mind having my Knight main wielding stealth or something.

[TTHIAGO]

I looked for a video that explains me the crew skil biochem but did not find with the answers I wanted, so I will leave here my question because I also searched the net and did not understand very well.
I have the Biochem more Diplomacy and Bioanalysis but I can not create anything in Biochem, I have all the materials to create the Dielectric Cell Caft but production does not start, my biochem is in 1/600 and it does not increase the level because I can not create anything because it does not start the production, the level of my character is in 35 or 37, first I was told it was the level of my character but then I read somewhere that it was not mandatory to have the maximum level of the character to start creating things, is it a bug or is it something else ?

[KingOmnifarious]

@Swtorista What are the best class combat style combos?

[RubyRoks]

Super helpful video! I do have a question though. Say someone got their two combat styles as a subscriber and then cancelled their subscription for whatever reason. Would they still have access to both, would they be limited to the one they had equipped when their subscription was cancelled, or would they be limited to the one they chose upon character creation?
