hey folks, The big update is planned to be released on April 11. This should have the first boss of the new operation, something for PVP, Quinn returning as a companion (the freaking traitor!!!), and rumor is a house on Zakuul. There's more to this update so check the link and if you're really excited, there's a boring twitch that'll happen that should help calm you down. http://www.swtor.com/community/showthread.php?p=9266437#post9266437
wait, what is this "first boss" of a new operation thing? are they really staging release of individual op bosses now? if so, what a crock...
One boss at a time... op should be finished by the end of the year. I'm guessing it's a "we've made a huge mistake not making end game content" moment. They had some "focus groups" and they were pushed to do that instead of releasing a completed op at the end of the year. Really, they needed to get their shit together a while ago...
I really want to get in some SWTOR time but I just can't seem to make it happen. Lately been playing Mass Effect which allows me to come and go as I please. Missing all you guys, a ton though... Which reminds me, Eugene in April....
I hear ya. We'd love to have you swing by but once you get sucked in... Let me know when in April and I'll see if i can make it happen!
There's a few mechanics in HM for sure! I watched a SM and it looked like almost a tank and spank with adds. I see there's stacks on the boss that build which i'm guessing is a shield and is tied to the adds somehow. I'm hoping this will entertain us for a month or two
The update has been pushed out for a week due to quality issues... http://www.swtor.com/community/showthread.php?p=9276542#edit9276542
I have to say, it may only be one op boss but it's nice to have a new HM to start a progression! We're still learning the mechanics but it's fun!
