Set servers haven't been assigned yet for people. They won't know until they get into the early access (providing they pre-ordered).

I'll let you know as soon as I get the email. There supposed to be sent out tomorrow regarding early access and they're supposed to include what server the guild has been assigned to as well. But yeah if you're going Republic on your main you'd be welcome to make a Sith in WHC.

Update:


Server is going to be Kaas City

We Have Cookies was successfully imported into Star Wars™: The Old Republic™. Web support for this guild will be removed on January 03, 2012.

Early Access starts today:

They're doing the invites in waves--two of my rl friends got invites well before either my bf or I. We got in around 10am. Nabbed my character names and now I'm in the process of leveling my bounty hunter. ^_^ Yay for early access!

Congrats! I just want to get in to "nab" my names too. I'll be annoyed if my main names are taken by the time I get in

At least you can use ' and - though in your names for some extra customization if needed.


I found a live stream of a darthhater guy playing. He's trucking along, hard to see if he's actually enjoying the game by just whipping through everything.

I played in 2-3 betas and if he did the same, I'm not surprised he'd blaze through some of the intro stuff. I mean, I'm watching the scenes over again, but I have a friend who's skipping through them since he's already seen them twice in the beta.

[Royi]

true that (about seeing same scenes again)

i'm def taking my time to level up though.

[TygerDarkstorm]

I'm re-enjoying the leveling process and correcting mistakes I made while I was in the beta.

Torhead put out a guide for WoW players on what to expect from SWTOR that I think sums things up brilliantly: http://www.torhead.com/guides/swtor-for-the-wow-player

It's mostly stuff that's been talked about before, though there are some other helpful tips, like primary stats and such.

P.S. Have I raved about the loot system? A big helpful green beam over a corpse to indicate a green drop = <3!

[TygerDarkstorm]

Oh gods how I love their loot system! <3 I love that you can enable area loot and I definitely love the different colors signifying a green drop, yellow drop (quest item), blue drop, etc.

I saw that too, even for someone who got into Beta it was a good read.

Loot system rocks, I like how I know which mobs to not even bother running that 10 yards to loot. Now if they were able to have Force-Looting (it would be plausible) that would make it even more great. I got a bit too attached to my Loot-a-rang in WOW

[Royi]

Just got the Early Access email! Woot! Can't wait for lunch break at work.

[Lotusii]

Still haven't gotten my EGA email yet but I'm hoping to play when I get home from work. If not I'll just hope for tomorrow. It kinda sucks hearing my roommate playing it and how excited he is. I'm glad he's enjoying himself though. I'm slightly jealous but I can wait.

Level 2 Sith Warrior!

Name is " Jayse " on the server " Kaas City "

I also made 4 other characters just to save the names for myself and a couple other people.

The guild settings were pretty neat. I played around with guild names / ranks etc for a bit. Once they make the interface a bit more customizable I'll be 100% content (Rift's interface has been the best I've seen so far since everything there was customizable)

Wait you can Area Loot? I didn't even look at that option... That would make it quite easier.


I leveled up to 10 last night, took about 4 hours with doing all the quests that I could. Just landed in the SITH Fleet, learned proficiency (Sith Marauder / dual wielding dps Sith Warrior) and chose some professions, decked out my companion in a new look and called it a night.

Later tonight I think I'll run a few dungeon runs back to back in hopes of getting maybe a couple pieces and just having some fun.

[TygerDarkstorm]

Yep, under the Controls area of preferences you can enable area loot and be able to loot everything in a certain radius around you--very convenient.

Black Talon's pretty fun. In beta my bf on his juggernaut, our friend on his Marauder, and myself as a bodyguard BH with Mako healing went and 3 manned it at level. We just ran it on live with a group of 4 friends; becomes stupidly easy after level 15. XD

I like Dromuund Kaas though; very pretty world and some nice group quests.

[Royi]

oh wow with 3 people would all the companions be in there? I've heard of people duo'ing it (with 2 companions). Maybe that would even be easier with 3 then

I look forward to it

[TygerDarkstorm]

The max group size is 4, which means if you have 3 actual people in the group, only one person can have their companion out in the flashpoint. So the way we did it, we had me keep Mako out so Mako and I could heal.

My man and I two manned the Heroic 4 man quests in Dromund Kaas with us and our two companions.
