SWTOR: Rise Of The Hutt Cartel

April 14 is the release date for Rise Of The Hutt Cartel, the first digital expansion for Star Wars The Old Republic.

Please see the following links for additional information:

Attention Subscribers: Your price for the expansion is 50% off!!! a mere $10 for a whole new planet (for those 5 extra levels) and tons of extra content.

Also (for people who want to forgo ROTHC) 2.0 will launch at that time with 5 extra levels, new gear, and some tweaks to your existing planets that will BLOW your mind. I saw one of the changes they made to Dromund Kaas and I was like "OH EM GEE" ... and the ACHEIVMENT SYSTEM is 100% awesome!! I've been testing 2.0 and lets say, a lot of complaints people have made about the game... are being made right.. some planets (such as Taris and Tatooine) will have additional level 50-55 areas... some of the new mobs are mean looking!!!

only by reading your post, I can say this:

i'm loving it already :appl:

i'm still wondering when they are going to make space combat a bit more like in sw galaxies though :-| I never liked the "arcade" view

I have already purchased this expansion and I am looking forward to this. A number of my level 50 characters will benefit from the level cap increase, new gear, skills etc.

Currently levelling a Vanguard, decked-out in Gree battle armour atm and having great success with it in PVP plus general PVE levelling. The new bolster system in PVP will help level the playing field and be more skilled-based rather than a reliance on gear.

All-in-all this looks to be a promising expansion and hopefully the shape of things to come.

Been trying the new PvP bolster today, and I'm not impressed. In my Elite War Hero gear, a level 35 in green gear gets better stats than me? What? So I bought a load of greens on the GTN, and went into PvP and my stats shot up. Next match, I went in naked. Stats went up further. The fact that being naked creates better stats than EWH gear is ridiculous. Working as intended? I think not.

Anyway, time for some naked PvP...

Easy mode game is bad. Come play Project 99 and die a dozen times before level 10. Ragequit three times then come back again.

[04:29] (SWGO)SWINE*FLU: We'll do it in turns.
[04:30] -SR-Mandalore: That sounds super fair
[04:30] -SR-Mandalore: Do you think other gay couples do that?
[04:30] (SWGO)SWINE*FLU: I reckon so.

Just finished Makeb. And even though I was 2 levels down, I found it too easy. The last boss was simple to defeat. Heroics easy to solo... I hope the Weekly quests are harder. That's the only complaint I have though, the planet and story are great.

If I recall correctly weren't we supposed to get a new companion. The game itself even elluded to
Spoiler: show
Lemda being the pub side companion.
I'm ticked...

You should LOVE the macrobinoculars/seeker droid missions.
