What was that emote you used when showing off the legacy gear can't remember the name for the life of me

What was that emote you used when showing off the legacy gear can't remember the name for the life of me

[@thomasparker6072]

Is that for Kotor and Star Wars fallen empire!

[@Swtorista]

All these videos are for the online game for PC "Star Wars: The Old Republic". This specific video does talk about content in the expansion "Knights of the Fallen Empire" :)

[@thomasparker6072]

Thank you what is the name of your guild!

[@kurtfeierabend1206]

I tend to keep at least one Heroic Mission in my lists for each planet where I do not have a Stronghold. I learned to do this when I switched from Sub to Preferred. This way I can quick travel to almost any planet from my stronghold.

[@idontusethisanymore5418]

This is really Professional And i hope people get good use of this series c:

[@Scottie001]

I can't get over your legacy name xD, "Swagwalker".

[@Swtorista]

It was supposed to be a silly joke that doesn't get seen, I keep forgetting it shows up in the videos :)

[@NoblePlays]

Was i the only one taken off guard when it wasn't Swtorista doing the intro? Can we get 40+ Likes for our #swtorfamily member!?! Excellent video!!!

[@LovableScouse]

Iv said this from the start of kotfe but I personally think the alliance base should be legacy wide instead of doing it per character, I don't mean leave everything as it is but make it legacy wide. Make the specialist max influence 50 rather than 20 but have it so all your characters can work on one set instead of having to do everything over and over as some people don't have the time, credits or patience to do it all for all there characters

[@Swtorista]

I agree, legacy-wide would have been nice!

[@Assassino275]

You got your wish weakling

[@Assassino275]

@Darkrimo The crates are anyway

[@josefx1389]

Been playing off and on since release and these videos refresh my shoddy memory of things. Thank you!

[@Swtorista]

cheers!

[@boaringname203]

I'd be so lost without these guides!!!

[@Swtorista]

cheers!! :)

[@boaringname203]

Your welcome 😊

[@crazyworld54321]

Your voice is quite pleasant to listen to.

[@Mystyrys]

A very nice instructional video. The Alliance system can seem overwhelming at first and this explains it succinctly. Well done!

[@Swtorista]

+Mystyrys There's so much going on, it became a very long video because of it.. and that's even with me leaving some stuff out!

[@irvingben]

Another great video! Thanks for helping players transition from Chapter content into the Alliance System

[@Swtorista]

+Ben Irving Thanks Ben Irving! :) It's a big transition for new players!

[@markosmartong434]

Excellent video!! Very helpful for those unsure how to proceed after the storyline completes.

[@Swtorista]

+Markos Martong Thanks Markos, so much to do after the story ends!

[@senshibat8920]

Wow such an interesting place of companions the retro story options w alliance contacts was nice to see -

[@lobotofcloudcity9028]

Lobot approves.

[@atomiicpunk]

1:16 AKA they were to cheap to do voice-acting, and just made it look like that for nostalgia reasons.

[@mubashir122000]

Out of curiosity how do you employ that pose or animation on your jedi in 4:03?

[@SamGibbins]

Love this video thanks! Can I just ask- does the alliance system affect the main story of KOTFE at all? Like, will I miss out/change the main story if I choose not to really work on the alliance quest side of things?

[@Swtorista]

So far it has NO affect on the main story. But we don't know if that will change in the future.

[@SamGibbins]

Thanks!

[@SwobyJ]

Doesn't affect the main story so far, but since KOTFE has been said to be using Mass Effect 2 as inspiration, for all we know, its status (characters, rank, whatever) may very well matter in a big future story chapter. Or not. Haha. In any case, if Bioware has any sense about it, there will be warnings before continuing to any such chapter.

[@AclibButLikeTheRealOne]

@@SamGibbins you probably don't care anymore but also for everyone asking the same: No it doesn't effect it at all ^^

[@redscul129]

question, what is the best way to star doing the mision to recruit people?? i tried the first mission with the voss lady that sends you to ilum, but is impossible because is a jedi base, yes im a sith

[@wasgehtlol7097]

I know I'm kinda late to the party but I have a question. Do I have to finish off all my alliance quests before finishing KOTET? Does the alliance "disappear" after that?

[@MrFillzor]

Late response, but nah You can finish the expansion and keep working on your alliance as you see fit (although narratively things do progress beyond the conflict with Zakuul)

[@sahijpreetdhaliwal6964]

Whenever I get the quest to do the star fortress it goes to heroic 2+ automatically I never get the choice to do solo

[@visek123]

The vendor you mentioned near the end doesn't sell crates anymore and data crystals are gone already. :)

[@shayne52]

I’m not getting the loot when turning in the locked supply crates I must be doing something wrong

[@karlrovey]

You have to open the "commander's share."

[@P6r9n]

Do I half to do a certain mission to get Xaleks mission?

[@Swtorista]

Check out dulfys guide on companion recruitment dulfy.net/2015/10/21/swtor-alliance-specialists-and-companion-recruitment-guide/

[@aaronarcher248]

Um does completed the findsman quest give you access to allowing having companion at level 1 cause i saw some people at level 1 with lana

[@Swtorista]

That's crazy I have no idea how you'd get Lana at level 1

[@aaronarcher248]

@@Swtorista well in the sith i saw someone at level one and some else with vearoa denz as well i like to know how people do this

[@boltrickk1432]

How long does it take to get to Chapter 9 of KOTFE?

[@sirenety2929]

So i started playing again and subrisbed for 60 days was it. I started a normal Character and went up zo lvl 70 in 5 days. So lets say i am a Juggernaunt and i wanna play 1 of the expansions like the ethernal Throne what Character is the best to Choose then. (Getting the lvl 60 and 65)

[@Swtorista]

I would suggest playing it on your juggernaut since you have already connected with them while levelling. But if you want to save them to finish your other stories first, many people say the Jedi Knight fits well with the KOTFE/KOTET stories :)

[@sirenety2929]

So i will make another Juggernaut then. On my First thaught i thinked about making a healer or so so that if i need another character i can simply switch but didnt knew if i should do that since i like playing Juggernauts the Most (Sith4Ever)

[@sirenety2929]

I already have the 70 Juggernaut (Normal game not the expansion)

[@Swtorista]

Have fun with juggernaut #2! If you want to heal Sith Inquisitor is very cool and very Sith4Ever! (Sith Inquisitor Sorcerer)

[@sirenety2929]

Thank you for taking the Time to Answer. Keep Making Helpfull Videos and i hope that people dont only watch your video but also leave a like to support you :D.

[@dragomyridicto5625]

Wanting to sub long term. I see there's not a year long subscription. Can I buy 2 180 day subscription cards?

[@Swtorista]

If you mean the amazon pack, supposedly you can only use it once every six months is what the terms and conditions say. If you mean on swtor.com/buy yeah you can just buy the 180 one and buy it again to add another 180, but I'd recommend waiting till closer until your first 180 days end to do that (in case your life changes and you don't want to or can't play anymore). I also recently made this video about deals that might be super useful to you, you can see the description if you don't want to watch too :) kzbin.info/www/bejne/eZ62g31pqr2Cis0

[@enzimochi]

Should i finish all class stories before y play koft or theres no problem if i play only one character?

[@Swtorista]

Just one is fine :)

[@dar-nakkallig]

Is that a black gray dye on a Juhani set?

[@Swtorista]

Yep good guess!

[@dar-nakkallig]

Yay I like the look of it

[@Michael.131]

great video, don't stop ;)

[@Straswa]

Great vid!

[@cxm4978]

Hey I don't know if you will see this because its an old video but if you do can you please tell me what the name of that gear is called that your sith assassin wears?

[@Swtorista]

Hey there Logik! Could you tell me the time in the video you see it? If you can I'll let you know :)

[@karuma.-7618]

Do i need to be subscribed and have KotFE/ET for the "chapter 9" or is it available for free players aswell?

[@Swtorista]

The later expansion including KOTFE/KOTET require a subscription to unlock. (no free to play)

[@adnanrivera7795]

Subscirbed. Thank to whoever runs the channel

[@Swtorista]

Cheers! You're welcome :)

[@adnanrivera7795]

any guild both imp and pubes (sorry im mainly imperial) for newbies, I'm a game veteran but idk much about roleplaying

[@Swtorista]

If you haven't seen it yet, I made a video about how to find a great guild :) kzbin.info/www/bejne/hYjXeoKJrLSDrJo

[@martinlindqvist8515]

when you influence the four specialist dose it affect the story ?

[@Swtorista]

I think it does but only a tiny bit.

[@martinlindqvist8515]

@@Swtorista in what way ?

[@tt2184]

Hey Swtorista! Great video (Although it was posted a year ago - hoping you can still respond) I have a question So, I was f2p and the Twitch prime offer came so I claimed it and unlocked KOTET (9 chapters) (BTW just went pref - f2p is awful, pref isn't great, but wayyy better than before) I'm playing SWTOR rn and I was cashing in my lockboxes, from heroics, to the alliance specialists. Was able to hand them into the big hutt and Sana-Rae, but Hylo Visz and Bey'wan Aygo are NOWHERE to be found Do you know what I could do?

[@Swtorista]

Hello Master Dude, That's a weird bug! To try and fix it, try and abandon your current "Chapter" quest, or try starting a new chapter quest (one of the older ones). Maybe it will bring them back www.swtor.com/community/showthread.php?t=881505 another with the same issue www.swtor.com/community/showthread.php?t=904176 and here www.reddit.com/r/swtor/comments/5gr29b/bug_i_lost_beywan_aygo_somehow/?st=j4u90pms&sh=0e73f4e3

[@tt2184]

Thanks a bunch! The bug's sorted now!

[@panathenaea]

is there an advantage to getting recruits? (especially for the story) I wouldn't mind getting M1-4X but I don't want to do pvp at all....but if there's a game benefit, i'm willing to die 20 times

[@Swtorista]

Not really to be honest.

[@panathenaea]

@@Swtorista thank you!

[@lordzniper9195]

where do you come from? I'm just interested because on my language your channel name is "About Swtor"

[@lordzniper9195]

I mean that was the translation to english

[@Swtorista]

That's funny :) I am from Canada/USA and my first language is English. "Swtorista" is a joke name - it is the words "SWTOR" and "Fashionista" (someone who really like fashion) together. But the meaning "about SWTOR" works very well for this channel!! :D

[@lordzniper9195]

Yeah :D indeed

[@rcschmidt668]

Love the name!

[@theronshan9281]

Awesome thanks

[@ghozominecraft301]

thanks for help

[@thrawn2034]

What about Lord Scourge, can we recruit him as well if I'm not a Jedi guardian?

[@Swtorista]

I don't think so, I haven't finished all the companions in the 4.0 expansion but I don't think he's one of them.

[@thrawn2034]

Swtorista Shame, ever since this game released, I wanted to have him as my companion. Hopefully in the future we could get him on a different storyline. Thank you so much for your reply. Your videos are amazing, they got me back on track this since I returned to play swtor. Great job.

[@haberak3310]

I jusr realized how much I miss data crystals.

[@Chronoir3]

Jesus christ! Kudos to bioware in making these things that almost 90% sure players will ignore and just continue through the chapters.

[@LodvarDude]

I miss Theo in my SWTOR-life.

[@Taeschno_Flo]

Wow, im 3 years lare for that...

[@slushg3326]

You can still do it, the gear pieces you get are legacy unlocks so I store them for use on other characters.

[@senshibat8920]

yes but forget about giving the alliance loto they get out leveled and cheap

[@herrrooo8630]

I keep hearing “Star Wars: the KNIGHTS of the old republic” Like why do people call it that? It’s called “Star Wars the old republic” and there’s no chapter 9 on any of the class stories...

[@petrabukovinska6961]

Knights of the old republic is different game than SWTOR. In SWTOR you have 3 class chapters and then you have expansions that offer more "chapters"

[@tamedarknight]

Third

[@yoitsEep]

second!
