I had multiple little "Easter eggs" and jokes mixed into the video, how many did you find and which were your favourites? Gus is probably my favourite one
what about upgradeing my weapon modification
Not stopping for breath. As a teacher myself whenever I explain things to my students I always forget to breathe too.
@@dragonsithy6517 Which ones do you mean?
If you do the unlock the 336 one that is the highest you can get. Force users will have the Hilt available, Tech class will get you the Barrel
I wonder what the other 336 artifact is, they never mention this here or in swtorista guide (oh nvm Draemn mentioned artifact is via operations...)
@@kgaydos7 i wish they mentiontioned more
what mount is that?
As somebody who played when the game came out and recently returned you’ve helped me not be so overwhelmed by the amount I have to learn and catch up on. You’re very informative without being dreadfully boring bro I appreciate it!
Great video! I've got this video saved for the next time I jump back in to SWTOR. Keep up the great content!
I'm a newer player, been playing a couple months now. It's nice to see someone creating current content for SWTOR. So many of the videos I find are years old. Definitely earned a sub from me.
Suuuuper helpful man! I've looked at a few guides on this now but they're either out of date or confusing/ not detailed enough. You're is perfect though and I'm looking forward to being maxed in a few days.
I literally came back to the game after a 10 year break, I am loving videos like this! Thank you
Same lol
Love the thoughtful thorough explanations
Thank you for this video. It was a great help, after taking a break for the last three years.
Very helpfull man. Saved me so much effort, research and asking around with this video
I just came back to the game a couple days ago after almost 2yrs gone, this guide is so helpful cuz i was lost on gearing. thanks man
Bro, thank you for this vid 👍🏽. For new and returning players like myself. Once in awhile we need a refresher on how things work/changed. Got yourself a “like” 👍🏽 and a subscriber. Keep up the good work my friend.
You popped up on my feed today. All I have to say is wow thank you. I’m a returning swtor player and your videos are exactly what I’m looking for. You sir have a new subscriber. Keep up the great work.
I advise modify what he says. Just take 1 piece of gear and pull the 336 Proto quests and just burn strait to 336 by doing FP and Heroics then power through. you can get a 336 in 10 hours then break down and you have the 336 mods.
Didn't know about the achievement/discount on legendaries after leveling them, thanks for that D.
I am so glad that I watched this. I'm an off-and-on SWTOR player and I had completely forgotten about dismantling. Gonna save me a ton of time! Thanks!
Just wanted to say as a long time returning player your videos have helped me out so much. There is so much to get lost in and you break it down so well. Keep up the good work brother.
exxxxxactly what video i needed. I've played on and off from 2011 but never got into end game content/ gearing. im 2 months into playing again and after 7.0. Everything is fun and i want to know what im doing, especially with my max level characters. thanks so much for this video my man. luscious hair lmao!!!!. rock on my dude! 🤘🤘🤘
I didn't know about the stronghold bonus for conquest. I only had 25% until I reactivated all my dormant, fully-unlocked SH's and instantly jumped to 150%. Great tip, thanks!
Thanks for these, brother. You and a small few other creators help new players more than you know!
great vid😄💯👍litle complicated but very well explained out
Finally took the dive and have started upgrading. Swtor's upgrade system really needs to be reworked again though.
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.
Bo I'm use to the upgrade style. They still suck and are overall more complex than they need to be
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..) :-(
Facts and same the way they had in before the hutt cartel was the best
Well, seeing how the last time instead of cooking up something new they simply upscaled the max gear rating, it seems like now BW are at least sticking with the current system.
Same I'm level 80 bit just completed knights of the eternal throne and I just want to play the main story not spend hours learning how to gear and then spend more hours getting the gear
@@matthewtedeschi5646you don't need to gear up for the main story. The gear you get dropped/from mission rewards is good enough to get you through those. High lvl gear and the grind leading up to it are only partial to endgame players.
Imo the new system was made to get people playing end game content. If you can craft everything then you aren't grinding flashpoint and less people are on it making it a dead matchmaking. They want people grinding the gameplay not the resource nodes.
Man - this is the most helpful video on new 7.2 gearing. I was grinding like mad but now I will grind smartly. Thanks a lot for all your research and help.
Thanks for the video, trying to get into the game but was way lost on gearing,
When 7.3 drops they are going to make it a little easier, but that is probably still 2 months away. They will just be having 1 type of currency for each gear path except legendary implants.
@@Draemn well I guess that's a good small change
Just what I was looking for! Amazing video!
Unfortunately, the game never teaches these kinds of things. Instead teache swhat every other game has as tooltips... :/
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!
Usually tactical first as you only need one and you're done most of the time. Personally choice if you want to skip ahead to 336 quest but I like the power boost by setting up 330 first to keep farming with
Thank you for making this easy and comprehensive! Keep it up, my dude :)
Great video
Amazing guide!
I’ve just returned to SWTOR after a 10 year hiatus.
This has been very helpful!
Great Video! You are very informative and are clear on how to obtain gear. Keep up the good work!
Still wondering why they scrapped the 6.0 system.
Very nice video!
You are an asset to the community mate, i just wish more people watched your videos.
Question while i have you.
What reason would someone want to go from capped prototype to capped artefact? Is it just "better"?
You get high stats if you upgrade to artifact gear. It doesn't do much for tanks, but it is noticeable on healers and DPS. Also, better to make a new comment next time instead of replying to your own comment, hard to see it this way.
You're a king.
I hit 330 today thanks to you. I appreciate you actually being in-game to give out tips and tricks too.
Thank you Sir.
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.
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 thanks for clarifying. The reason I was asking is through dailies and fps, I’ve accumulated a decent amount of ops currency and was trying to choose the one thing I would start investing in as I don’t plan to run ops I came back for the story and then PvP kinda started sinking it’s teeth into me and brought back that addiction :)
Imagine play this game and the english is not your lenguage. Im so lost, but i can understand something now! Thank you!
I enjoy MMOs, but I can't imagine this level of complication and investment.
Playing an MMO like a full time job, and keeping Excel Spreadsheets and shit.
Thanks for showing. The certified game companions will need to go back to modify gear since the 50 influence only needed for crafting with default status. Modified gear will bring up companions status up higher. There is enough companions to make yourself group out of companions for go in master and Op missions. Don't exist but game update we called it Companion privileges game update. Game keep more interesting.
You helped me with geting better at the game. Earned a sub :)
Thank you for this guides and all the rest!
Good to see a vid man! Thanks for the info :)
Thanks!
Thanks for breaking all of this down. It really sounds like a pain in the ass. Wonder why they got around made it this way?
Thankyou !
Damn dude nice video. Wild, I am legacy'd 3 naturals to 75 my juggernaut to 79 xD almost there. This is super helpful and as a player who just enjoyed the story and playing with friends this is saving my bacon. Thank you!
great info and so very helpful. I notice you using a graphic for your gear system. I see no link to it in your discription. Is it possible for us to access that infograph?
I have it posted on my discord and on reddit
@@Draemn okay thanks. How do I join your discord? I do not see a link posted in your discription. Sorry I stay away from reddit.
@@SwordOfGib At the end of my video I put the link on screen to minimize spam.
Yup I just unlocked it on one character and now have 336 legacy stuff I just toss around between my alts.
Thanks for this. I am really struggling to get tech frags for the implants. ATM they're at 326 each, but it has taken hours doing red reaper. What's your recommendation for getting tech frags please?
If you can do operations, nothing beats operations! solo flashpoints do not help you get tech frags. Here's a video where I spend part of it describing some of the good places to get tech frags. czcams.com/video/l2PCNZkZNPY/video.html
You're the man
I have a question about doing the mod quests for my second character. I got a 336 prototype earpiece drop with my main and transferred it to my alt using the legacy storage, I then deconstructed it but it didn't count for the quest. I double checked and tried again to see that I didn't have the wrong quest active, but it still didn't work. Even stranger, using 332 artifact gear from PvP did actually count for the quest...
Can you help me understand that?
Sorry, I'm not sure. I haven't had any issues.
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?
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.
I accepted the 330 one, got myself a 330 prototype, deconstructed, but it didn’t do anything with the npcs or did the quest complete. Any assistance?
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.
Thank for your Videos!
Is there a set of Gear that we could wear for PVE & PVP or do we need two separate sets & Keep a Set in our Inventory when switching from PVP to PVE?
You can wear the same gear for both. You will just get your stats scaled down to the "cap" for PvP. But, most dps use less accuracy for PvP, so if you are serious about PvP you should have extra gear to get the right stats.
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.
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.
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.
Hi mate, I'm a little confused here. I just finished the zeek quest for the 336 purples. I only see to have purple 336 enhancements in the vendor shop though :(. How do I get purple 336 for the other types of mods, or don't they exist?
336 prototype quest. 336 Artifact quest only provides enhancements.
@@Draemn thank you, are there just no 336 purple for the other mod slots then?
stop grinding?!? That is the fun of the mmorpg. I love the grind.
Quick note from the editor. And it’s literally him
I found this comment extremely funny. I don't know why, but thanks for the laugh.
@@Draemn yeah dude anytime 😂
Thanks for the video! I've been running Vet FPs for a full week now bit haven't had any luck in getting a 330 piece, I'm full 324 gear, am I doing something wrong?
you have to upgrade your gear, boss drops are always the item rating you have equipped. You might benefit from checking out how to upgrade gear in my other gearing guide from the launch of 7.0
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.
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.
@@Draemn neat ! Didn't knew that. I guess we learn each day.
I'm new to the game and bought a cad bane looking outfit on the cartel market with no stats. Every few levels I buy new mods for this outfit and update it. Am I shooting myself in the foot here? Or is this the right path? I'm only doing story mode, no pvp or group stuff.
Thanks! from the blind guy:)
hey there
just a random question...what the name of the set (outfitter, breakfast turtle) is wearing? and is it dyed?..really like the looks of it=)
Yes, it's the onderonian armour from generic level 75 gear (non moddable). It's got a white and grey dye.
@@Draemn oh cool..any way to obtain these nowadays?=)
@@indoorgriller Spoils of War vendor for tech frags is the way I know of. I know they added a ton of cosmetic gear to vendors for credits, so there might be another way.
@@Draemn ah youre right..i completely forgot about it and had this set like 100 times..but we just farmed mods in 6.0 haha..so i deconstructed it...but its force-lord right?..so buying it with a sorc should do the trick=)
So I think I missed my main question or you simply didn't mention it.
Does an augment disappear when you upgrade a piece? I already threw in an augment into an implant and I'm curious if I just wasted the augment kit.
Yes, you lose the augment kit and if you don't take out the augment, you'll lose that too. 22:00 I go over putting augments in. It could have been more clear, but it was intended to point out to players to augment the moddable gear not including the accessories.
Thank you! I wish bioware made this easier to understand and discover so people don't waste resources.
100% agree! Thanks and I'm glad it helps.
If you get a blue 330 from a master dungeon, could you take the 336 quest instead and skip straight to those? Or is there something preventing that
Skip right to the 336 quest if you want. I just like doing the 330 quest first because then I can augment the moddable gear and and get a big power boost sooner, even though the overall result takes a little longer.
The fastest why I've found is grind one piece of flashpoint gear up to 336, then get the vendor mission and deconstruct it, then you can give every character 336 gear straight away.
If you have access to operations, it is much faster and easier to grind up by joining story mode runs like DF/DP but I get a lot of people don't do that.
This shit is so convoluted lol. What was BioWare thinking implementing a system like this? I like that they’re multiple paths of gearing, but the different caps are a pain.
Can you explain accessory upgrades a bit more?
So I don't want to use FP relics/ear, I want to use conquest ones and upgrade these to 328, then use a crate to get a blue version?
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.
@@Draemn great, thank you so much 👍
Is there a big difference in doing prototypes or artifact I have a set that’s moddable from the season pass and am closer to PvP mats can I just power level a PvP purple piece and use purple mods what would be the setback of that?
The artifact quest only provides upgraded enhancements and will not provide the hilt, barrel, armouring, or mod pieces. The 332 artifact enhancements are not better than the 336 prototype enhancement. If you want, you can use a 332 purple for the prototype quest to get blue gear mods and then kill a master mode flashpoint boss or Eternity Vault (veteran mode) boss until you get another 332 blue for the 336 quest.
If pvp is your goal, max item rating is 332 as you will get "scaled down" to 332 stats if wearing higher item rating gear.
@@Draemn Ty for the quickest reply but went ahead and did the artifact 332 quest last night and found out that I didn’t get all the mods hahaha what would the next logical step be just power level a flashpoint piece up like you now I did what I did because I had already upgraded a PvP item a bit b4 watching this and thought “I’ll just get the better mods rn”😂 shows how much I know
@@askinnakklevaar98 You're not the only one to make this mistake. I say to do the prototype quest first, but I should have left in the part where I say the artifact quest only gives enhancements.
Do you have to be max lvl to start pvp? I'm mainly interested in just pvp but am only lvl 35. I don't wanna use a token yet since I'm.still deciding which class race to.main
You can pvp at any level, but it is a pretty big level range as I think PvP is broken into 3 different level ranges right now. With the top level range only being level 80, so effectively the rest of the levels are broken into two groups.
I'd save that token as well, it's not worth using real early on.
Hi, big thanks for your guide. However i am unable to upgrade to 336 Artifact to get the 336 purple enhancements. Even SM OPS it is hard, people want experienced players, and if i go first time on some OPS they always unhappy with me lol. So it is no way to receive OP-1 Catalyst from FP's or World Bosses?
If you can't find a group to play SM operations with, you won't be able to get the purple gear easily. Sometimes you get random gear currency drops in game or from login reward. There is a very small chance you might acquire enough that way to buy the purple 324 operation gear (rakata) and upgrade it to 336, but not very likely. Best option is to learn a dps class that you can do well enough at with damage to improve your skill. I do have other generalized videos that you could watch for some suggestions on the topic of getting better and joining operations.
@@Draemn thanks, will do!
I just came back and I’m a level 71 Bounty Hunter and just got the Mandalorian Nomad armor. Can you not get mods and enhancements for your gear off of the GTN to get ya by until you hit level 80? Thanks in advance 🤙
This guide is specifically for once you hit level 80. In my "vendors of swtor" video I cover different places to buy gear off vendors at lower levles. You can also check what is available on the GTN.
@@Draemn Thanks so much 🤙
Yeah, hey, thanks.
So confused. That's a lot. I'm a returning, solo, player who just wants to do stories (& Space Combat). What is the minimum gear rating I need for this? Can I make it on 300? Do I have to stress at levels 70 through 80?
As you level up past 75, you'll find yourself get continuously weaker on item rating 300 gear. If you are starting to struggle and find it hard you can check out my other video on how to beat any content. Otherwise you'll be fine to just stick to your gear.
You don't need gear for stories
@@mynameajeffblack8265 That's awesome. Thank you.
I opened a thyrsian crate while i had most armor and weapons 330 and gave me duplicate 332 cuffs...is it a bug?...it worked 3 times fine but in 4th gave me duplicate item
I don't know, but I've been having issues with the crates as well. Still, if you have multiple items equipped at the same item rating it can give you any one of those.
Man what are your chest and specially gloves? I hace onderon chest as well but yours seems a bit different. But I'm more interested in gloves. Very hard to find a gold matching one (or is it the bracers?)
I've got a white dye module in the chest, gives it a very different look. There is good chance the gloves are the onderonian gear you can buy from the spoils of war vendor. You might just need to change what toon buys them to get the different model. I think mine are the "force-lord" variant.
What the best Preferred Player gear? I've just dropped my sub and can't use any of the 336 gold gear I already grinded out. Also, I have no interest in getting the Artifact activiation token.
Your choice but imo the artifact authorization is 100% worth it. You can keep wearing the gear you had as a sub without it but any new gear has to be blue prototype (better) or green premium (worse)
@@Draemn Yeah thanks, I know and it's perfectly fine for those who are willing to fork out for it. But I used up my CC already and wouldn't be happy with just 1 toon with the artifact authorisation, considering I've done all the story with all classes, I farm with all my characters for crafting and such.
For the time being, I've just started the entire game fresh on a new server and maxnig each class again, lol. I just waned to know what other gearing options there were.
The video it's good and thank you for that! But ughh the gearing system sucks right now...i have to farm world bosses every day...
I deconstructed a 336 artifact piece but why does zeek only offer enhancements?
because the artfact quest only unlocks a couple different enhancements. You need to deconstruct a prototype 336 to get the rest of the mods and armor and hilt
@@SwiftDuckFPV ah thank you
so i deconstructed a piece of 330 gear but zeke only sells me "enhancements" and not the mods for the rest of the slots, is that normal?
If you do the artifact quest instead of the prototype quest, that is what happens.
@@Draemn yeah... I realized that I messed up shortly after :(
If I do the 330 Prototype modification quest, and then dissamble my ilv 330 equipment, does my 330 equip gets destroyed in the progress?
So I need to get another one?
correct. You can skip right to the 336 quest if you would rather. I go over some methods to get an additional 330 piece if you deconstruct your only blue 330 for the quest
@@Draemn I ment 332 :D
I am doing the PvP gear and I am about to have the 332 handpiece later today. I will give it to the quest then. But I think it is purple color instead of blue if that matters
@@Xhanatos you can use the purple gear for the prototype quest.
@@Draemn Thanks.
In the personal conquests tab I have progress 772k/100k and I don't have 200cc. Is it possible that I accidentally spent them somewhere else?
If you were not level 80 at the start of the week, you might have made your personal conquest (100k) before the reward changed to include 200cc. I think it changes at level 76. If you earned any cc this week, it would show up under your "weekly limit" even if you spent them.
@@Draemn Oh, so there were different rewards before level 80. Thank you!
336 prototype (blue) accessories and artifact (purple) accessories have the same stats.
im stuck at 326 item level and everybody tells me to do Veteran flashpoints and master flashpoints but they only drop the same item level gear i already have.....
First of all i was blind and now i can see.Now i only got one question since i mostly do FPs i wanna ask how am i supposed to get a 330 from FP's when i dont already have one equiped in order to deconstruct it for the 2 bozo's quest,unless umeant weekly box upgrade
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.
does a subscription makes a difference for gearing ?
it depends. If you have artifact authorization and you are a preferred player with Legacy of the Sith expansion, the only advantage you get from being subscribed is more ways to make tech fragments and OP-1 catalyst. You only follow this guide if you're at level 80 but if you're not subscribed, you probably skip the artifact gear entirely.
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?
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.
I wasted so many tech frags not knowing about that implant achievement 😅
Nice video.
I went directly to 336. Grinded vet fp's and Master mode Red Reaper with a friend doing stealth runs.
Then I did one Master mode EV just to get a purple piece, farmed vet OP to get currencies.
Upgraded the blue piece all the way up to 336 (it's very expensive).
Upgraded the purple piece all the way up to 336 (it's not that expensive).
When you say you did 1 master mode EV are you saying you did that 1 time and it dropped a purple 336?
@@darthvaporize235 He got a lower purple piece and upgraded at vendor to 336.
@@JohnnyRedvers what is an lower purple piece?
@@dexteros5770 A purple piece lower than 336. For instance if your gear rating is 330 then you will loot a 330 piece. So by lower I mean lower than 336. He would have then gone to the vendor and upgraded the purple 330 piece to a 332 piece, and so on. He needed to farm the Op currency to do that.
@@JohnnyRedvers ok thanks
I used pvp armor for hyde and zeke
Also, question, how does your deconstruct window has only the one pane vs the deconstruct/destruct panes?? I am not a fan of the dual window. I liked that when you opened deconstruct it would highlight the ones you can decunstruct. With the dual windows I have to click everything over and then unclick the ones that go to destruct...
That video footage was recorded before the 7.2 UI update, so it's just old UI used in the video background. When you bring up the new deconstruct window, as you hover over items than can be deconstructed the cursor icon changes! You can use that to tell which items you want to click on.
@@Draemn Thank you for the response and I do understand. Still, I used to bring up my inventory and the deconstruct and at a glance could see which items can go over, now I have to hover over each one, one by one to see if it can be deconstructed or not. To me is a big loss. VS throwing items away in bulk which is something I never do, as I prefer to sell them.
where i can find this image ?
I don't know what image you're referring to but a link to my discord is at the end of the video and you'll probably find what you want there or you can ask if you can't find it.
great vid I am still on the upgrade mision lvl 80
I'm so glad you made that comment at the end "unnecessarily stupid" because through the entire video I could not help but to think the same thing. Upgrade system seems overly complex, not in a technical way either in a tedious way that some idiot made up, they were probably going for different but different has to at least make sense, this system is plainly put.... stupid.
Thanks so much
This is the most player hostile system of gearing I have ever seen.
i will save for later to see if it is even worth trying in game or move to something worth spending money on this game was Soo good but the grind after grind kills it
If you're in no rush, wait for 7.3 to start upgrading gear.
yeah I dont understand anything and I see no point of even trying anymore with this system
If your can get buy in the gear you have, just enjoy playing!
@@Draemn I was doing a master fp and a guy explained to me what I had to do really simply, based on the gear I had. keep up sharing info because the game has lots of systems layered, that nothing is really straightforward. it can be really frustrating for new or returning players. Thank you for your time.
