Customizations for Andronikos Revel This one is for the ladies! Andronikos is definitely the most eligible bachelor for female Sith Inquisitors. He’s not a bad bloke to hang out with for all your male Sith Inquisitors as well. There’s no doubt that Andronikos is a bad boy, so bad that even the Republic didn’t want to deal with him. He boasts dual gun-slinger style pistols with a killer attitude

2013-04-16T14:45:00.001+10:00

A common sight in PvP warzones since patch 2.0 has been naked players. An oversight in the bolster system has meant that a lot of players have been better off not having any item equipped. This is about to be fixed, with changes being made to War hero and Elite War hero gear. What will the changes mean? The lack of clothing on PvP has included players who had War Hero or even Elite War Hero

Let the lag wars begin Asia-Pacific servers close down!

2013-03-26T18:18:00.001+11:00

BioWare are closing down Asia-Pacific servers of SWTOR. I just found this news on Google+ and I must say, I think it's shocking that BioWare would not listen to the suggestions made and would instead opt to close down the Australian servers completely. This will force me, and other Australian and New Zealand players, back to the laggy experience we put up with when the game first came out in the

2013-03-20T12:25:00.000+11:00

One of the characters I leveled from 43 to 50 in about 7 or 8 hours. I did this by: 1) using the Double XP 2) combined with the 25% bonus buff and 3) I played through the class story line and the planet story

The Many Looks of Blizz

2013-02-13T15:22:00.001+11:00

Blizz customizations I am now working my way through the story line of my seventh character on SWTOR, a Bounty Hunter. Although I played a Bounter Hunter character on a different server last year, to around level 30, I decided I'd start again and play it this time as tank. To say that Bounty Hunter's have a colorful array of companions is an understatement. Not only do they have the cutest

Relics of the Gree Event Sneak Peek Video Pink sabers and all...

2013-02-12T08:39:00.003+11:00

I don't know call me old school but do we need odd color sabers? White, pink, red/black? people in SWTOR don't want to use the classic blues and greens for Jedi and just red for Sith. How cool was the original SWTOR video with all the Sith red sabers? Are we losing somthing in game when we have Jedi using Red sabers and Sith using Pink? Would we take Vader the same way if he pulled out a pink

Those Healers Need Protecting!

2013-01-25T15:57:00.000+11:00

I spend most of my time in SWTOR PvPing these days and my main character is a Jedi Knight Guardian. He's got a balanced tank heavy spec that is able to do some DPS as well but he's more than capable of holding a base or protecting a healer. The problem is, at least on my server, that we're seeing less and less healers wanting to heal. They are complaining that none of the tanks want to do their
