Flailing and Failing: Returning to the Game

Hawtpants of the Old Republic Posted on May 30, 2017 by NjessiMay 30, 2017

The real life job that has been bullshit on my gaming schedule has receded to normal hours.  I’m patched up and ready to go. I have no fucking idea what I’m doing. I read the Dulfy guides, although it’s like drinking … Continue reading »

Now What?

Hawtpants of the Old Republic Posted on February 1, 2016 by NjessiFebruary 1, 2016

Currently, I raid with one of my guild’s groups.  I’m incredibly fortunate that the raid times plug into my schedule so well or I wouldn’t be able to go at all.  Because, hey, kids are so needy. In addition to … Continue reading »

Being Selfish And Lazy Because It Is “Just A Game”

Hawtpants of the Old Republic Posted on April 28, 2014 by NjessiApril 28, 2014

There are a lot of things I should be doing.  In particular, I should be making the gear on my operative the best possible, min/maxing, and generally being leet.  In an ideal world, this would involve: Doing more raiding, likely in pugs, … Continue reading »

Updates To Sentinel/Marauder Guide

Hawtpants of the Old Republic Posted on July 22, 2013 by NjessiAugust 26, 2013

Things have been quiet around here – and if you’ve been following me on twitter, you’ll know I’ve been doing some serious rewrites of and additions to the Sentinel/Marauder guide.  That takes a lot of time! And Effort.  And Brains. … Continue reading »

I Put On My Big Girl Pants And Did An Op

Hawtpants of the Old Republic Posted on June 26, 2013 by NjessiJune 26, 2013

Two, actually. First was a 16-man Scum & Villainy Story Mode PUG.  Normally, I hate pugs.  But, in a fit of stupidity, I accepted the invitation.  Here’s why: I need gear I don’t know the fights at all and if … Continue reading »

Getting Raid Ready (Again)

Hawtpants of the Old Republic Posted on June 24, 2013 by NjessiJune 24, 2013

… I mean ops. Totally Ops. So, I hit 55 on my Marauder, and it’s been a mad scramble to get my butt ready for raids ASAP. But it’s totally different this time!  Granted this is a new character, a … Continue reading »

Fashion Honeymoon Is Over On The Sith Side

Hawtpants of the Old Republic Posted on May 31, 2013 by NjessiMay 31, 2013

Remember how I said, not too long ago, “Every piece of armor I have gotten – green, blue, whatever  – has looked badass.” Well THAT euphoria came to a screeching halt when I got my latest upgrade. Sith in a … Continue reading »

Why Collections Don’t Do Much For Me

Hawtpants of the Old Republic Posted on May 15, 2013 by NjessiMay 15, 2013

I was pretty psyched about collections until I discovered: 1. It only applies to cartel market items (AND NOT MY SPACE PANTS – unless there’s a whole screen I missed, but I doubt it) 2. It only applies to full … Continue reading »

My Totally Reasonable List of Demands for 2.1

Hawtpants of the Old Republic Posted on May 2, 2013 by NjessiMay 2, 2013

Hey there, Bioware.  Me again.  It seems like Santa Bioware has been busily working on my list, and practically half these things are accomplished.  Which means they have time for even more totally reasonable demands.  Hooray! 1. More Zabrak Hairdos. … Continue reading »

MK-9 Components are Expensive

Hawtpants of the Old Republic Posted on April 30, 2013 by NjessiApril 30, 2013

Before 2.0, I could make bracers and belts, cheaply, to RE for parts for the top level (MK-6) augment kits.  It was resource intensive, but not that bad. Now for synthweaving and armormech, it’s total bullshit to get components for … Continue reading »

Leveling the Playing Field for Crafters and Cartel

Hawtpants of the Old Republic Posted on March 14, 2013 by NjessiMarch 14, 2013

I want to craft again.  Right now, nobody wants to buy my stuff.  Quite frankly, the stuff I can craft kinda sucks too. I’m tired of being stuck with republic-skinned clothes no matter what I make Item sets that are … Continue reading »

Devs Explain Dude, Where Were My Comms?

Hawtpants of the Old Republic Posted on October 29, 2012 by NjessiOctober 29, 2012

We Get Answers About Our Comms You may recall my unseemly reaction to the removal of BH comms from story mode EC bosses and chests without so much as a peep.  Well, a the devs put out a statement finally … Continue reading »

Dude, Where Are My Comms?

Hawtpants of the Old Republic Posted on October 1, 2012 by NjessiOctober 29, 2012

With 1.4, story mode EC gives no black hole comms from bosses or chests.  Same with Terror From Beyond Story Mode.  We probably would have known this sooner, or even been able to discern it from the patch notes, if … Continue reading »

Black Hole Gear For Sentinels And DPS Guardians

Hawtpants of the Old Republic Posted on September 4, 2012 by NjessiFebruary 25, 2014

When I first saw the black hole gear, I was pretty damn disappointed.  Some items were an upgrade, a SLIGHT upgrade, over my Rakata stuff.  But in most cases I’d actually LOSE a hefty chunk of strength.  No. Way. Whilst … Continue reading »

Clinging To My Towel For Dear Life

Hawtpants of the Old Republic Posted on June 25, 2012 by NjessiOctober 27, 2012

Patch 1.3.  I was right to panic.  There is so much to do! And I won’t be online until Wednesday, so other people will get a head start.  THE HORROR. Gather All Recipes.  For armormech and synthweaving that should be … Continue reading »
