The Many Looks of Mako
Mako's bubbly personality is an absolute pleasure to be around and whoever wrote for her did a fabulous job.

A tribute to Ralph McQuarrie
SWTOR is part of the expanded universe of Star Wars and although it has a distinct look that is identifiable as early on in the timeline of the Star Wars universe, there’s also a continuity with the visuals from the original movie trilogy. The look of those first three films owes a great debt to [...]

The importance of a name
As you all have noticed over the last week, Bioware launched new Asia Pacific servers. This was bitter sweet for me; I wish the servers had been made live in the Asia Pacific area at the time of launch. Needless to say, Bioware made their decision before launch and stuck to it. After the first [...]

SWTOR Slicing: Post Nerf
Just in from our underground network: As we all know, slicing was a great money maker before patch 1.0.1 on December 27. Now the big question, is it still worth it to make money. To find out, we did every lockbox crew mission 10 times and came up with the following. On average, the return [...]
World PVP in SWTOR With a Twist: Tatooine PVP Zone
The word PVP zone in Tatooine brings a twist to PVP as it’s not a faction PVP zone at all; it’s a Lawless zone. You can attack anyone in there at all: same faction, same guild, best friend! It’s a zone that you will find high end mats in and you can farm them all [...]
The SWTOR Leveling Experience, Levels 1 – 10
My first experiences in SWTOR began in the beta 2 weeks prior to launch. I had initially been invited to join earlier but thought I would wait for launch and avoid any disappointment.

SWTOR Jedi Knight Full Companion List and Gifts
To say T7-01 annoyed the crap out of me in Beta in an understatement! He had (it’s now gone) this action called grapple that would pull what he was attacking to him. So I would jump to a NPC with force leap, then he would grapple it and I would have to run back after it. Man I wanted [...]
SWTOR Sith Warrior Full Companion List and Gifts
Sith Warriors will have to wait for their second companion to get a healer. Don’t let this discourage you though! The first companion Vette, is at least mildly entertaining and brings decent ranged dps, making her a nice balance to a juggernaut specialization. While at first, I found myself disappointed I had a crazy blue [...]

Command Decisions – The Brotherhood, A Trooper-Exclusive Guild Interview
Ever since I decided to play the Trooper a couple of years ago I couldn’t wait to see a full Flashpoint run of just Troopers, kicking ass and looting named…bosses.

Star Wars: The Old Republic, You Have My Attention
Interesting Ripten article: Let’s begin by making this clear: I’m not a Star Wars fan. I’ve seen the original and prequel trilogies and that’s about it. I haven’t read any of the books or comics, nor have I played any of the games. The expanded Star Wars universe is completely foreign to me. I don’t know the [...]

Always In Motion Is The Future – Analysis On The Launch Of The Old Republic
