It would honestly be pretty dumb of them to gender gate him. Neither male or female characters have had a male force user to romance (and you really can't compare Lord Cytharat considering even if you do save him from Lava he disappears from the game after Makeb is done. You can't include him as a true romance  ) and Arcann does send the flirty letters to both genders. And I have you. Kills me every time I read it. (Though my Consular would like to sit him down and be all 'yeah, saying you're a weapon I can use is not healthy, I'm not your father.' But that likely comes from his upbringing where Arcann has no idea how to act or be, if he's not being used as a tool. Some of the dialogue he says is pretty heartbreaking and shows even more how much of a messed up childhood they all had.) But no, you can't kill Koth if he never left you. The only option I ever got is a dark side option to punch him instead. (Though I never took the mean options with him so idk if it's hidden under some other dialogue, but I doubt it.) But being in a relationship has never stopped characters from flirting with others before, so who knows. it'll likely be done with your character initiating the flirts which could be awkward. My Consular has never flirted in his life, he probably doesn't know how.  Why this way of course  (I doubt it) Haha. Honestly that sheer level of awkwardness would perfectly fit my Consular. He was pretty much oblivious to any attempts of people flirting with him in the game. (Though I'm still salty that at one point where two dialogue options with Nadia were flirts, and the non flirt ended up sounding kinda mean  ) |

Out of all the available pairings in ToR available right now, fem HawkeAgent and Lana has to be my favorite, they go so well together  Lana: "Zealots are dangerous" Agent: "What could happen when I have you to rescue me  " Lana: "I'm serious, if anything were to happen to you..." Agent: "Then you better kiss me now, just to be safe  " Lana: *fighting a laugh* "You're insufferable" |

I have finally made a Warrior to romance her, I just haven't gotten around to playing her yet. (Trying to make the most of these bugged Dailies on my 70's before they fix it.) I've also warmed up to Lana a little more with the newer face for when you customize her. It threw me off for a long while but I'm starting to get used to it, and she's going to look totally badass in the Sith Recluse set next to my Warrior. |

I'm honestly not all that on board with the concept of an Arcann romance. Like... I'm sorry, I can't get past the fact that the guy WAS the main antagonist of Fallen Empire, killing millions if not more as the Emperor. I'm not exactly a fan of how the game presents it as 'immediate redemption and acceptance or DEATH.' Like... Still a war criminal, even if he wants to repent, maybe he ought to do it in a prison of some kind?
Granted, I may be hitting a wall on TOR overall, considering that I'm not exactly a fan of the Knights of... expansions, and I am not happy about what the whole thing with Theron is potentially leading to...

So how is everyone handling the server merge? I luckily only lost one name for my characters, though I'm a grumpy hermit who liked a quiet server so seeing all the people around is certainly overwhelming. (I'm also lowkey salty Darth Hexid is locked to group finder content, but oh well, I'll keep using Shae on new characters.)

(I'm also lowkey salty Darth Hexid is locked to group finder content, but oh well, I'll keep using Shae on new characters.) I didn't lose any names (38 characters) but I started playing between 3.0 and 4.0 on the busiest EU server so most of the reasonable sounding names were already taken. I did have one character on the progenitor that I wanted to recreate on TRE named Warann but it was already taken so I left him there and hoped for the best and I guess I got lucky and someone else whose character was named Warann now has to change his name. Oh and I guess you and I are both on the same server now! If you really want Darth Hexid but you don't like group content, get a character to level 10 and do lowbie PVP. Everyone's on the same level-gear wise and nobody expects you to be any good without your abilities and it's over in a flash. But you'll probably do really well anyway. It's amazing what you can do with force lift and double strike when everyone else is just as gimped as you  Plus you have stealth so you can just sit on node and call out when someone's coming. Or you can do what I did when I first PVP'd and run around like a headless chicken and get killed a million times until it's over. I should add that I'm really don't like grouping with PUGs in this game either. |

I should add that I'm really don't like grouping with PUGs in this game either. Psh I'd rather sit on Coruscant and read the godawful chat than ever delve into pvp. XD (I was there for about an hour tonight and I honestly never wanna open gen chat again. I dread to think how much worse it is Sith side.) I'll survive, from the way they describe Hexid none of my characters would want anything to do with her anyway, they don't generally mesh well with evil, merciless Sith. XD But I'm glad you got to keep your names/get a name you wanted. Most of mine have last names because I'd rather have a last name and the first name I want, than pick a different name altogether. The only one who has a one word name was my Sentinel whose name is mostly made up from an old rp character. Though I will say I certainly see more half naked lady Jedi running around now than I did before Progenitor got merged so yay for that. |

Psh I'd rather sit on Coruscant and read the godawful chat than ever delve into pvp I have a love hate relationship with PVP. I don't really like PVE group content because you're stuck with the same people who insists on talking to you for 20+ mins and it stresses me out. But in PVP you can go in and do your own thing if you want and bail out if it gets toxic. The group isn't going to sit there waiting for someone else to fill your spot, they'll just get on with things. If you go into it knowing that you will get killed and have to respawn ALOT and you just accept it and get back in the fight and know that if things are going bad or you just hate it, you can just leave without feeling guilty, it makes it a lot less stressful... for me anyway. Overall I don't like PVP but sometimes if I end up on a team that knows what it's doing (or some of them are just so good they carry the bad people) and people are polite and we keep getting thrown in together and keep winning, it can be kinda fun. That doesn't happen a lot though and if it does it doesn't last long. Now I just see PVP as a means to an end. Get in, get out, get components - until I can bear it no longer and need a break. Saying that, I'm taking a break from the game anyway because there's really nothing going on for me to enjoy. I cannot grind another daily. I. Just. Can't. Do. It. [internal scream] I'm playing FFXIV at the moment and although I miss the voice acting and QOL improvements from SWTOR, I actually have been grouping up because the game forces you to at low levels all the way through to end game as part of the story but they are so quick and easy and they pop super fast because high-level players are incentivised to do them as part of their daily grind and unlike in SWTOR where you're leveled up to match the lv70 FP (but without abilities and passives), in FFXIV, everyone is leveled down and that includes taking away abilities and passives that they can't have at that level so it really is an even playing field and your contribution does help. I'm sure I'll get bored of this game eventually but I need SWTOR to introduce a big chuck of story content for me to re-invest and the Copero FP is not gonna do it. I'm not even going to play it probably until 6.0 (if that ever happens). Most of mine have last names because I'd rather have a last name and the first name I want, than pick a different name altogether. I really like my legacy name and use that as their surname except with Sith who are Lord [name] or Darth [name]. |

I've just never been fond of it and I doubt I'd be any good at it so I'd rather not deal with the drama of pvp, same reason I don't do group stuff. I played FFXIV for over a year and the relic grind combined with toxic people in group finder just burned me out entirely to the point that I fear stepping foot in group finger in Swtor. But I can understand wanting to take a break, it can get tedious when there's no story stuff for a while, and I'm not expecting much from Copero. Unless you're an Agent it doesn't feel like you're getting much out of it except maybe seeing a bit more of Theron being an idiot. I'm not expecting much more until they end this nonsense and that's not until early next year, though I hate story stuff being confined to just flashpoints as you don't get enough out of it. I'm longing for the day they return my companions already. I'm pretty peeved that my Consular still only has one returned whilst some classes have nearly all of them back. |

I didn't realise you'd played FFXIV. Talk about teaching your grandmother to suck eggs (that's such a weird f-cking saying). I doubt I'll do any end game stuff. I don't have time to dedicate my life to another MMO or any really for that matter. The group finder hasn't been too bad so far for me and I joined a really small but really nice FC the second day I was playing and in 3 years playing SWTOR, I've never been in a guild that has offered to do anything with me. I've been recruited a million times it seems and every time, I'm like "So wanna do an OP? I haven't done one before." and everyone's like "Nah, I'm grinding this, that or the other" or "Sign up for ops on our website, turn up at 7pm on Thursday for gear inspection, install Teamspeak and.... etc." and I'm like "Can't we just get a quick group together and run through SM EV for funsies?" Most of the time though, I end up joining a guild that has a core of like 10 players who all know and talk to each other and basically just ignore me. Since I've been playing FFXIV, every time I've had to do an MSQ dungeon or trial, at least one of my company mates has offered to go with me. Usually everyone offers until the group is full. And I have trouble getting stuff done because everyone is talking to me all the time. I'm so used to being a solo player it's kind of weird but good at the same time. I don't mean to shit on SWTOR because no other MMO comes close to the storytelling but I just don't get how I can't seem to make friends in that game but it happened almost instantly in FFXIV. And when I say no friends I mean zero people on my friends list. I even tried going to a US server and pretending I was an absolute noob with legacy level 1 to see if people would try and help me out but I just ended up joining another guild who just ignored me and didn't want to do anything. |

A weird saying indeed.

I guess the playerbase is somewhat different between both games. I think I had one person on my friends list in Swtor and that was someone who only came back to briefly show me the ropes, but he refuses to play it (he played early days and now the game is different and 'ruined' in his eyes so he refuses to play anymore.) It sucks, I wish I did have people to play the game with, I see people in little groups and wish it were me, but everyone seems a bit anti social to those not in their circle and the only people who ever seemed to send guild requests before I used the auto ignore, were just people wanting to inflate their guild numbers. I don't mind playing solo and I have no interest in raids (never did in XIV either) or pvp, but it can get lonely. |

I don't mind playing solo and I have no interest in raids (never did in XIV either) or pvp, but it can get lonely. I know what you mean. I always felt like I was missing out not having someone to hang out with and just go off and do stuff with in SWTOR. A lot of that's on me because I kind of shut myself off from other people and turned the chat window off because the few times I'd tried grouping up, the people had been pricks. Still, I've spent entire days regularly trying to make friends and I just can't seem to find anyone I gel with.. and there's only so much time you can spend waiting around reading gen chat hoping that you can jump into a conversation without feeling like a loser. You can totally add me as a friend but I'm not playing right now and when I do play it's usually on a fresh alt. I'm not planning on grinding anytime soon on the same character. I wish there was a way to set up a guild with just 2 people, then we could both just add all our alts and then if we happened to be on at the same time, we could get together and do an FP with our comps or something chill for half an hour. Actually we'd only need one other person because I have the game installed on two PCs. Think of all that extra storage space too! Anyway my main imp character is called Khaevus and my main pub is An'taar (I think that's how you spell it - I'll check and correct it if it's wrong. I haven't played him in a while). No pressure though. I won't be offended if you don't want to especially as I said I'm not really playing right now (although I log in for an hour or so here and there). |

Half the time the people talking in gen chat if it's not a cess pool all seem to know each other so it's hard to jump in. Though I was the same in XIV. I had a small group of friends and when new people joined our FC I'd sabotage myself and keep away. I guess I can't get away from my social anxiety even in a video game. (Heck just being chatty on this forum takes an effort.  ) But I'll add you, even if you're not on much, it's something right? I don't generally do much in game outside of playing new alts and doing some dailies but I can understand not wanting to grind. I did it on my main and it was awful, but doing the weeklies isn't terrible at least. Will likely add you on a few characters as I flutter between them all, unless doing something specific. (Currently using double xp to get through a new Knight.) |

I did it on my main and it was awful, but doing the weeklies isn't terrible at least. Will likely add you on a few characters as I flutter between them all, unless doing something specific. (Currently using double xp to get through a new Knight.) I once had a really nice flashpoint experience with some guy. I was about to do Black Talon solo and he was standing outside and whispered me to ask if I wanted to do it together and we did. We watched all the cutscenes and stood around chatting about the game and the characters we like the most and how much we loved Bioware storytelling. We talked about other games we liked. It was really cool. Afterwards he asked if she should meet up and do it again and I said "sure" but the next day I stopped playing that character because I really didn't like the spec and instead of sending a mail to say I'd moved to a new character, I just didn't do anything. The thing that stopped me was the fact that me being gay hadn't come up and I got so anxious about having either having to tell a straight guy I was gay or pretend to be something I wasn't. I feel that way IRL too with straight guys. They can't tell just by looking at me and hearing me speak but I hate having to be the one to bring it up because I don't know what reaction I'm gonna get. It's not so bad if there's a group of you but if it's 1-1 it feels really intimate to speak about with someone you've just met. I just came out to one of the girls in FC today in a conversation that lasted about 2 hours, I just casually dropped it there that one of ex boyfriends was French (she's Belgian and we were speaking French when she asked how I learned to speak it). She didn't skip a beat. I don't think I could do that with a guy. So anyway, I'm the same as you (social anxiety). I basically need someone else to be the chatty one and make the first move. Haven't really met anyone like that in SWTOR yet apart from that guy and I chickened out. Anyway, I'm not sure how friends lists work - if I get an invitation or not - but send me a a tell if you see me online  |

I started playing this again. I’ve got a few characters going right now (I’ve only ever beaten the consular story and I want to beat some others). If anyone is playing on the Star Forge server, let me know. I’d love to run some group missions. It would be great to unlock Darth Hexxid but I’m holding out hope. Shoot me a message and I’ll list out my character names.

So what did people think of the newest flashpoint? I thought it was very pretty but damn did those bosses have a ridciulous amount of health on them. I think I've done Veteran flashpoints where bosses had less health. I spent most of it having no idea what the mechanics were and throwing myself at everything. Can't say it was fun having to run around with a level 1 companion. I guess my characters who aren't stealth users are going to have to waste the credits to get said companion to a decent level. I just wish it had more cutscenes with Theron it felt very short. Also, never imagined I would hear my sweet as can be Consular say something like if you want her head you'll have to claim it yourself and that seemed to be the most diplomatic of the lines possible. Also missing my characters normal eye colour. In getting rid of the sparkle, the eye colours are all messed up now. My poor Sith now has glow in the dark eyes, and my Sorc who DID have the bright white eyes are now a much duller grey. I hope they fix it.  My guys just don't look the same anymore. (Before and After shots of some of my characters eyes. I hope they fix this nonsense soon.) |

So what did people think of the newest flashpoint? I've just done it. The bosses were horribly long. The best part? I did it in the wrong mode so I can't complete the story and I have to do it again. Please, have mercy and kill me. |

I did it on my Shadow first time and those aoes are so obnoxiously large I couldn't really do anything for parts of the fights, especially the first boss. At least my Sorcerer had a bit of an easier time, though he did instead have to fight his way through all the mobs, especially as some seemed to aggro three miles away for no reason. I certainly got a lot of use out of my own knockbacks when I ran him through. Ouch, I've heard a lot of people say they did the same because the terminal didn't originally show a 'solo' option for them. |

So what did people think of the newest flashpoint? I agree with everything you wrote basically. Doing it on my tank was a special kind of hell; trying to keep aggro from mobs spawning from stealth half way across the map and trying to keep the worst voice actress in history alive while she stands in stupid against bosses with infinite health bars. And then... I've just done it. The bosses were horribly long. The best part? I did it in the wrong mode so I can't complete the story and I have to do it again. Please, have mercy and kill me. The same thing happened to me. I spent ages trying to complete all the optional objectives on the first go around and I kept thinking "Where's Theron?". It took me about an hour or more, I'm not kidding. Only to finish the damn thing and realise that I'd done it in the wrong mode and I'd have to do it ALL OVER AGAIN. I wasn't happy. And we hardly got a look at smexy Theron with his new haircut and we didn't get to speak to him at all. Oh and all my eye colours are fucked up too. I just came away angry to be honest instead of happy that there was new content. I decided to cancel my sub until there is a new xpac. These drips of content aren't worth it. What would I be spending my time on? Grinding Ranked PVP for mats to get super duper augs? No thanks  |

What would I be spending my time on? Grinding Ranked PVP for mats to get super duper augs? No thanks  I can only imagine how horrid it was on a tank with a level 1 companion. I managed it on my Shadow though she decided to stay on an upper area and not move to me at one point so I had to run back to her just to get heals, it was annoying and even passive mode didn't help. On my Sorc I got her up to about rank 30 but I begrudge having to waste gifts on a companion for one flashpoint that I will never use again.  I was disappointed that we got like no interaction with him and that there was zero difference in the brief scene we did get between a romanced and non romanced character. Having to wait another 2-3 (or more) months for the conclusions sucks. I'm just worried he's going to get a kill option and then just cease to exist like Koth. That and idk how Bioware would handle a reunion if it truly is an undercover thing. My Sorc who romanced him is going to feel incredibly hurt either way. |

) and Arcann does send the flirty letters to both genders. And I have you. Kills me every time I read it. (Though my Consular would like to sit him down and be all 'yeah, saying you're a weapon I can use is not healthy, I'm not your father.' But that likely comes from his upbringing where Arcann has no idea how to act or be, if he's not being used as a tool. Some of the dialogue he says is pretty heartbreaking and shows even more how much of a messed up childhood they all had.) 
(I doubt it)

I have finally made a Warrior to romance her, I just haven't gotten around to playing her yet. (Trying to make the most of these bugged Dailies on my 70's before they fix it.)
Plus you have stealth so you can just sit on node and call out when someone's coming. Or you can do what I did when I first PVP'd and run around like a headless chicken and get killed a million times until it's over.
