Companions: Gift Early, Gift Often

Hawtpants of the Old Republic Posted on February 9, 2012 by NjessiMarch 25, 2026

OK, here’s a chance for me to do math.  The horror.  Don’t worry, it’s fuzzy math. If Corso loves weapons, I give him a green quality level 1 weapon, he gives me +96.  When he reaches 2000 affection, I need … Continue reading »

Outside My Comfort Zone

Hawtpants of the Old Republic Posted on February 6, 2012 by NjessiMarch 25, 2026

I have always played healers.  The closest I got to DPSing is to play a DPS offspec of a healing class and TOTALLY SWEAR that I wasn’t going to heal with it… and then go ahead and heal with it. … Continue reading »

Companion Customization and Hats

Hawtpants of the Old Republic Posted on January 30, 2012 by NjessiMarch 25, 2026

Now, I don’t know about you, but I hide helm on my characters because I want to see my character’s face and hair that I worked so hard on.  Hoods are bad enough. For companions, I can’t see anything but … Continue reading »

Did I Get On The Right Ship?

Hawtpants of the Old Republic Posted on January 25, 2012 by NjessiSeptember 21, 2012

I swear I’m in the twilight zone.  First, I see Risha, my companion whom I customized. Then I see Risha the NPC.  On my ship, in a different room.  Where she used to be BEFORE she became my companion. One … Continue reading »

Let The Companion Heal

Hawtpants of the Old Republic Posted on January 24, 2012 by NjessiMarch 20, 2026

I’m a healer and the husband is a tank.  One would think that, for questing, we’d grab 2 DPS companions and just go from there. Yech, that did not work.  It was much better to have his companion heal.  I … Continue reading »

Frivolous Expenditures: Companion Customization

Hawtpants of the Old Republic Posted on January 23, 2012 by NjessiFebruary 25, 2014

So, everyone has their thing.  Some people want the coolest mount, others want some sort of glowy glowstick that is a different color, some like minipets, etc.  I’ve decided my thing. Each companion will receive a customization.  It doesn’t matter … Continue reading »

That New Trailer and the UI

Hawtpants of the Old Republic Posted on January 20, 2012 by NjessiMarch 20, 2026

SWTOR released a new trailer about upcoming features including (these are the high points for me) guild bank and UI customization. While I’m thrilled with UI customization, it’s… a start. What it addresses: Resizing all the things.  IDEALLY this will … Continue reading »

Yes, I Backtracked To Get A New Jacket. Don’t Judge Me.

Hawtpants of the Old Republic Posted on January 19, 2012 by NjessiJanuary 19, 2012

With every jacket uglier than the last, I was stuck in my weird jacket with the doodads on the back and the horrendous neck roll… Which, I might remind you, is still better than the higher level crap that I … Continue reading »

Bad Fashion: Companion Edition

Hawtpants of the Old Republic Posted on January 18, 2012 by NjessiMarch 20, 2026

There are at least 2 things wrong with this outfit. (1) Green & Red?  It’s the Corso Holiday Edition, available for a limited time only.  If you pull the string on his back, he sings carols from Space-Georgia. I mean … Continue reading »

Upper Hand: How the Eff Does That Work?

Hawtpants of the Old Republic Posted on January 17, 2012 by NjessiMarch 20, 2026

Upper hand1 is difficult.  I’m having trouble wrapping my brain around it and it will take even longer for it to be second nature.  But I’m assuming that everyone else is having the same problem, right? The “Build and Consume” Model … Continue reading »

Yay a new orange fully moddable chest piece. Wait. That’s right.  The cape is part of the chestpiece.  It’s attached.  One guildie says “that looks like Dark Helmet.”  If Corso could have given me the -1 of shame for wardrobe, … Continue reading »

Choices Coming Back To Bite You Later

Hawtpants of the Old Republic Posted on January 3, 2012 by NjessiJanuary 18, 2012

OK, this is awesome.  So I’m on my storyline quest (don’t worry, no spoilers, I’ll be vague) and I had the choice to (1) try to reason with this lady (light side), (2) punch her in the face and take … Continue reading »
