I did also. I was very suprised at the size of the packaging!

Great contents though. Bioware did this one right, that's for sure.

Uh, what? I've never waited longer than it takes to load, never more than a minute or so. What server are you on?

Last night there was a 30 minute queue on Canderous Ordo.  


Avg wait tonight.... 30mins. Mind this is all BEFORE the game is out on the shelves

did you input your cd key on the TOR website under the my account?





Also, once you get in game, they send in in game email which as it's attachments has all your other items.





Looks like PVP Warzones are the way to power level.  I can get 8k experience for about 10mins worth of work.  Not sure if they'll nerf that or not.

It sure is.  The first 50s started appearing on the 16th, they all leveled in PvP.

ETA:  I'd be close to 50 if I could just stick to one character.  I have three that are all mid 20's with a couple in the teens

ETA 2: You also get a lot of money from Warzones.

I got it figured out. I got two different codes. One the day I ordered and another the next day. It reminds me of dealing with Digital River. Asshattery.

Playing a level 12 Jedi Guardian named Decimus on Mandalore the Indomitable. I have a level 10 trooper named Gai'us with the intention of going as the tanking sub class as well, but I'm not sure I care much for the trooper class. It is different and as much as I like guns, it's not super fun for me like playing a Jedi Guardian seems to be. The Jedi Guardian seems to be analogous to the warrior from World of Warcraft which was also my favorite class in that game.

Currently have a level 21 Jedi Shadow on Swiftsure.   Does excellent DPS, especially in PVP.  A bit squishy as I am going down the damage line and ignoring any tanking.    1v1, I'm not sure any class except the equal Sith Class can come close to the balance of DPS this toon does.   Also great for sneaking and grabbing objectives in the warzones.

Overall though, the troopers do the most overall DPS, but I think I"m going to do a healer next.

Just a quick PSA:

Every class in the game can have an item in each hand even those only wielding one weapon, or wielding a "big" weapon like a rifle.  For example, a Jedi guardian can hold a shield or a focus, a sage holds a focus, etc.

Additionally, when you choose your Advanced Class (which it done at lvl 10 BTW), you get a box with an item for your offhand.  

Finally, if you chose an AC that can use two weapons, you severely gimp yourself by not using the second weapon.

Forgive me for being unclear.  

Each Advanced Class has a specific type of item that can be held in the offhand.  Only ACs that can tank (though they don't have to be specced for it) can use shield type offhands (an offhand that grant's a chance to absorb a percentage of incoming damage) .

The Imperial Agent ACs are the only two that I don't have first hand knowledge of, so I don't know the specific item that they hold in their offhand.

ETA: I just looked it up, Imperial Agents use a vibroblade.

A ton of fun so far.

Between release and beta, I've played every class except Imperial Agent and each has a different, but interesting story.

PvP is a lot of fun too, though I don't think the bolster system holds up when there's a large level difference.  By virtue of having more skills and abilities, between mostly equal players, the higher level should never lose.

I still can't decide which class I like best and I'm still switching among four different ones (Consular, Knight, Smuggler and Bounty Hunter).

I have a Guardian and PvP didn't start to become fun until lvl 20 when I got Shien form.  I expect it to get better when more of the abilities come into play (30s?).

ETA:  Shien is from a skill tree, but the other trees start getting good things around there as well.

I've level 23 Sorcerer and lvl 20 Juggernaut.  I've averaged 30+kills and < 5 deaths with my Sorcerer.  I've been averaging about 15kills and about 6 deaths with my Juggernaut.  In terms of XP, I usually get 9k-10k xp per warzone with Sorcerer vs 5-6k xp with the Juggernaut.  
Also, I believe I have that form for defense.  Again, it still sucks because once you use force jump, you're now STUCK.  You have no force run to get away and no real stun attacks.  You have no ranged attacks, so even if you use your ability to slow your pursuer down, they just kite you with electricity or whatever the rebels version of sorcerer has.  You just have to hope that you have a healer that keeps healing you.

IMO, melee is at a huge disadvantage in this game.  It seems like I'm always in the middle of AOEs and the target for focus fire even though my (burst) dps is probably the worst in the game.  It's still fun though, and looks to get better when higher abilities are learned.

I have the best results when I use line of sight to avoid ranged fire and force a close confrontation - which isn't always possible.

I've topped the damage/kill chart a few times with my guardian, but I don't see the numbers that I do with my sage or gunslinger.

ETA: On a completely separate subject, the Imperial abilities/animations are 10x better than the Republic equivalents.  Lightning vs pebbles, force choke vs stasis, flamethrower and rockets vs lightning gun (?).  Smuggler and Agent is close though.  The only goofy looking Imperial ability is the BH Mercenary tracer missile.
