      @Draemn  Рік тому +5

      It was a huge shock for players who aren't used to older gearing systems. Coming from 6.0 style it was very confusing that you no longer get upgrades from the the loot drops on enemies. But players who've been around with MMO's for many years recognized it easily as the same system as used in the past in WoW (shadowlands I think). I don't understand why in 2022 they decided to take 3 giant steps back.

    I will never understand why this whole thing has to change all the time or be so complcated. This is not a growing game and it seems like they could put more effort on content and fixes vs making gearing more and more complicated for the sake of it. FOR ME, it makes me want to quit instead of making gearing the whole reason I play the game. IMHO. (BTW, subscriber and player since beta, a zillion years ago..) :-(

Don't exist but game update we called it Companion privileges game update. Game keep more interesting.

    7.0 gearing drove me from the game. 6.0 gearing was easy and alt friendly.
    I understand why it upset some people. A Story mode player running around in Nightmare gear, but that didn't bother me. Gear doesn't make the player but it was fun to max out alts.
    However, i heard it wasnt nearly as bad as it seemed to be. It seems the game is having its annual resurgence amd thats good.

    • @Draemn

      It's still a hassle to fully upgrade every piece of gear, but the system is fairly easy now when following the most efficient routes. 7.3 is going to launch within a month or two and will remove excess currencies so most gear only takes 1 currency to upgrade.

    trick to get the master flashpoint or ops gear at item lvl 340 is to max out the pve gear to 340 then run master flashpoints or ops. the loot scales to the same item lvl as what you have in those slots. sadly does not work with the legendary implants so you still have to grind for the tech frags there. how to max out the pve gear is simple. Run your Heroic 2+ dailys at lvl 80 I'm pulling in around 400+ conquest commendations within 2 hours per day.

    Thanks for the great video. I'm newer to SWTOR and just recently hit 80. I was completely confused as to how gearing worked. This video helped a lot. I do have a couple of questions as far as gearing goes. While I'm working on the 330 deconstruct quest from the little alien guy, should I work on getting my tactical from Morro the Reaper first or should I focus on getting the implants from SN-4RK? As far as the 330 deconstruct quest goes, should I skip the 330 quest and just work on doing the 336 quest instead? I just subbed.....good content. Thanks!

    • @Draemn

    Gearing is better than having 3 sets per spec of an advanced class, plus 3 more gear set per general class (Juggernaut (Immortal-Vengance-Rage) - Sith Warrior, etc.) like we used to have.
    I'm still hella confused by this, but I've just made the 336 modifications quest on my Jugg, both Prototype and Artifact, and I just brought a ton of 336 Armoring, Hilts, Mods and whatever else there was. Had to mail them to an alt to counter the timer, coz I couldn't shove them straight into the Legacy Bank (oversight perhaps ?), but now I'm basically set for all my alts - just plop in a old moddable set, like the White Scalene from the Gree Event, and fill it up with 336 Blues and Purples. EZ life ! But lemme tell ya - gearing up 30 characters that way is EXPENSIVE !!! Specially if you're like me and play multiple specs and roles, and you'd like to be "optimized" somewhat. Like 110% Accuracy for PvE, gets replaced with 105% Accuracy for PvP, some specs need less Alacrity then others (Arsenal vs IO) and so on.

    • @Draemn
      @Draemn  Рік тому +1

      You can actually have gear pulled out of the legacy bay using loadouts as long as you have it open. So if you put a set of "base" gear on each toon, you can have it automatically swap the "base" gear with the gear in the legacy bay and then when you want to remove it, just open the legacy bay and select the loadout with the "base" gear. your shared gear will go right back into your legacy bay.

    This is a great video and has helped me quite a bit. When I first came back to the game, I viewed this and other videos of yours a few times to make sure I understood my options. I know this video a little old but I hopefully you're still checking comments on this vid :) I was comparing Rakata 340 weapons on Jedipedia to 336 modded gear that I currently have. But Jedipedia does not list the energy damage for those weapons only the stats like master, endurance, power, etc. My 336 saberstaff hits 2369-3553 energy damage as listed in the tool tip. I cant seem to find this anywhere so I was hoping you may either know or point me in the right direction. I'm wondering if those weapons will hit harder aside from the small stat differences and if you know where I may find the full stats for the 340 gear. Despite looking for a while now, I cant seem to find it. Thank you for the great videos on your channel.

    • @Draemn
      @Draemn  Рік тому +1

      That's not a stat. The stats on the gear all go into formulas to create the damage number shown in the tooltips. There is an extra stat on weapons such as "force power" or "tech power" that provides bonus damage to specific attacks/classes and it is higher on the 340 gear than the 336 gear.

      @Draemn  Рік тому +1

      It's cheaper to upgrade the conquest ones first and as long as the accessories (implants do not count) are the lowest item rating, those are the only upgrades the crate will give you. There seems to be a bug though where this only works if they are item rating 328 or lower. I don't think they've fixed it yet.

    This was an amazing guide. I am a lightning sorcerer currently rated 336 (blue supreme decurion gear mostly with 2 legendary implants and stormwatch tactical). One of my items is green (relic of serendipitous assault) and is also 336. I can't seem to get the blue one to drop either from master mode flashpoints or veteran flashpoints. Do I keep grinding?
    Also, are gold augs worth grinding for if I'm not planning on playing NiM Gods / NiM Dxun / R-4 HM?

    • @Draemn
      @Draemn  Рік тому +1

      Gold augs aren't worth it. They're just fun to get if you have nothing better to do with your time? If you get enough currency, you can just buy a blue off the vendor and upgrade it to 336. It's not a huge difference, so don't stress over 1 green relic.

  • @justlookingaroundforclues6723

    Why do you not just upgrade your piece to 336 instead of deconstructing immediatly at 330? Now you need to get another 330 piece to continue your grind to 336?

    • @Draemn
      @Draemn  Рік тому +1

      Personal choice. You can skip right to 336 if you want. I don't suggest deconstructing your ONLY blue 330 piece, make sure you have a spare one or can easily get a copy once you have 330 armour and weapons.
      It just opens up a lot more content like master mode flashpoints and veteran mode operations if you do a level up a 330 ir + augment gear. I find that pace more enjoyable than grinding straight to 336 in weak gear.

    Just followed! If I understand correctly, if I already have an armour piece I can deconstruct it for the 336 mod quest, yes?

      Yes, as long as you have a 336 prototype or better piece of gear you can deconstruct that for the 336 prototype quest. The 336 artifact quest only gives enhancements, so make sure you do that quest 2nd.

    Wow, this is turning the Game into a Grind-Working place sadly...since my bestie is disabled and I can get too easily into "Dopamine Hunting Mode" and then harm myself by not getting enough sleep, I will probably just go at a slower pace by farming Conquest Points, buying the OP-1 caches with them and then upgrade the OP-1 Gear step by step...will probably take a *lot* longer (maybe someone could give an estimate how long because I'm not gonna time-track this casual Upgrading Process like at a working place, thanks very much! 😉), but since to me "the Act of Playing" is more joyful/fun than the "cherry on the cake" of Upgrading a piece of Gear, I think I'll enjoy this "Slow-Pace Upgrading" a lot more with all my characters over time...as will my bestie with his cognitive limitations, that might get him killed in OPs and expelled anyway...
    Also, I guess this slower approach is also a way for others who mostly play solo but enjoy it and don't wanna put up with random groups, that are mostly "progress-oriented" (as a nice term for hectic and distressing speed-runners, who inadvertently demotivate slower or newer players with this behavior, just to mention this fact on a side-note - and people learn better when not being pushed mostly...anything else is toxic BS, just f.y.i. )...
    So, I guess he's gonna be a little slower than me, since I occasionally put up with PvP still and sadly this is a whole separate branch now as it seems in terms of gear...so, I might just do it for the Reward Track and Crafting Items it gives and upgrade that part of the "Gear-Tree" on the slowest-possible pace then.
    But, I think it is so important to remind everyone again, that this is supposed to be a "joyful leisure activity" and not another working environment, where you're coerced to get the best-possible "performance" out in the least amount of time!
    Usually people who get their "Dopamine Addiction" fired up that way and are usually highly ambitious Personalities, also are the most anti-social players in the Game taking fun for less so inclined players away and actively destroying it for others, just to state a fact I have witnessed multiple times in Random Groups...
    Not everyone wants to or even *can* be (from disabilities, age-related cognitive limitations etc.) as "highly efficient" as some of the most ambitious players among you can or want to be! And if your ambition destroys the fun for others, you need to take it down a notch if you are honestly interested in playing Group-Content at all!
    Because a big part of the Fun in Group-Content can actually be to help other players *at their own pace* (‼) and through that connect with them and feel the joy of having accomplished something *together* again and again...this can be rewarding on a non-(virtual-)material level and I think cultivating the Social Aspect of an Character of everyone involved...this is the "Secret Level of Gratification", that Social Playing *can* give/reward all of us with, that is not incorporated specifically into the Gameplay Mechanics...so it's on a "Meta-Level" to put it in a more precise term.
    I hope this helps de-stressing some of you who saw this and thought: "Oh my Galaxy, I'm never gonna get there!" or "This is too much - bye!"
    Because you do *not have to* play it this highly "efficient" way, if you are not willing or capable for whatever human reason! It does *not* make you a worse player like some over-ambitious idiots in-game might misjudge you without knowing your background and reasons for it ❣
    Everyone should and is able to get there - even with slower pacing and more help sometimes.
    Most importantly: enJOY the Game's beautiful content (visually and story-wise) and don't let anyone pressure you into doing something you do *not* want to do! Coercion is taking away the fun - call it out and leave if a group is not booting the a-hole(s)...better for your mental health, I can promise you that ❣
    Toodles...

      you can skip the 330 quest entirely if you want to just wait for 336 quest, but if you get the weekly upgrade crate you can use that to get a 330.
      Once you unlock the 330 quest, you get all gear except accessories up to 330. Then upgrade the conquest relics to 330 and have a 328 ear piece (can be the conquest gear as well) and open up the crate, will give you a 330 ear since that's the lowest item rating.

      it depends.
