In this week’s episode, we pine over the absence of Josh, talk some Patch 1.2, and wonder if what the ideal population is for an MMO.

What we did this week

ANEXXIA

  • Bought my space SUV
  • Became mom to an adorable Taun Fawn!
  • Got those darn purple lightsaber crystals after all in the 11th hour before server maintenance
  • Have sold dozens of pieces of custom gear now that people can easily find them in the GTN (hit the 50 auctions at 1 time max limit)


CHRIS

  • Space Combat on my knight
  • Got my crafting skills up to 250, and funny enough, it’s getting easier.
    TAUNTAUN!

  • Citizens being warned to stay away from Tatooine, and to avoid transmissions from there also
  • Reports of citizens exploding into disgusting green goo that has infected countless others with rakghoulism
  • It is your duty to use any means necessary including deadly force to protect the galaxy from this aberration.

Jedi’s Council

Obtaining your own Orobird
Steps taken from the updated Companion Pets Guide on Inquisitors Roadhouse.
http://inquisitorsroadhouse.com/2011/11/20/on-the-hunt-for-swtor-companion-pets/

First you need an egg.

Unusual Eggs (which hatch into Orokeets) seem to be on a 4 or 8-hour spawn timer (seeing differing accounts) and can be found on Alderaan at: 1) X: 1930, Y: -1451 2) X: 168, Y: 1836 3) X: 181, Y: 135 in Alsakan Lowlands under the broken bridge (NOTE: saw some forum comments that this one had been removed).

You may also obtain an egg (Mysterious Egg) from the final boss in the patch’s new Flashpoint, Lost Isles, if completed on Hard Mode. The mysterious eggs hatch into Orosquabs. After obtaining an egg, you can hatch the egg by following these steps:

  1. On Tatooine go to the Jundland area and look for water towers. You are searching for ones that have a blue “Water Access Panel” in the base. Note that if you are lucky you may find one immediately, but you can take up to 30min to get one if others in the area are on the hunt.
  2. After you have the buff from the panel, head to the Czerka Archaeological Site and look for a grouping of solar panels facing inward on itself.
  3. Stand inside the solar panel area until your egg hatches.
  4. Once egg hatches you will receive an Orokeet. Run out and enjoy your new pet!
