TOR Reporter Episode 24 – Good Try Bill

In this week’s episode Anexxia is joined by Bill of MMO Reporter and LOTRO Reporter fame (?). We discussed the new dev dispatch on the legacy system, crew skill updates, purple lightsabers and more!

What we did this week

Warzones on my trooper – won one MVP prize on Alderaan! And also the worst Huttball I’ve ever played… (sorry eskatun)
Little bit of questing on Nar Shadaa with my Jedi Guardian

Anexxia
Most importantly, since I was last on, I got my purple lightsaber!!!
Earned my legacy on one of my Sages
Rolled a Marauder…on an RP server!

Developer Dispatch on the Legacy System
http://www.swtor.com/media/trailers/developer-dispatch-legacy-system

New video with a nice selection of interviews with James Ohlen, William Wallace, Damion Schubert and Daniel Erickson on highlights of what we can look forward to with patch 1.2.
Fun to see some of the new species character unlocks in action. And nice explanation: “So, after you hit 50 on your Sith Pureblood, you can roll a Pureblood bounty hunter, because your father was a Sith”
