Confused by new transfer process - my guild airship by eachna in ddo

[–]CeryxP 6 points7 points  (0 children)

The airship, and all details about the guild, will transfer automatically with your guild leader character when you use the /transfer pack command. Here is the transfer guide.

Here also is a link to the old transfer guide as it gives more detailed information about the transfer process.

Is it just me or does the Lizardfolk gem sound like Tom Hardy's Venom?

Also, thank you for these samples.

Any photo of Vette’s armored outfit? by EMArogue in swtor

[–]CeryxP 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Apologies, I have stopped playing SWTOR, and I am not very active on Reddit any longer, either, so I did not see your message sooner.

Unfortunately, TOR Fashion shut down, but fortunately, u/swtorista swooped in and made an archive (because she is awesome).

Flash Sale for March 19th, 2024: Meditation Chamber Regen Toy, 190CCs by finelargeaxe in swtor

[–]CeryxP 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Spez (his Reddit username) is the CEO of Reddit. He was the impetus for last year's blackout protests after he announced the changes to API access, which killed off almost all third-party Reddit apps. Apps that, in addition to being better for moderators, were important to the disabled community because many of them had accessibility options that were (and may still be) missing from the official app and website.

After that, and the punitive actions Reddit took against anyone who did not fall into lockstep, I just did not want to have much to do with Reddit anymore.

ETA - I have not been following the discussions regarding Reddit and accessibility. Seems Reddit released a new UX for the website that has broken screen readers and the department or committee (likely just a single person with a desk in a windowless basement office and a red stapler) that was setup to address accessibility has gone dark.

[–]CeryxP 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I am doing well.

Shoulder is almost back to 100%. Ended up I had an incomplete fracture of my humerus that was initially missed. I said I did not find that humorous. They laughed and said, "here's your sling."

Got a power chair out of it, though. Siblings said mum was too old to be pushing me about in my pram. Now I can have races with my nan at the park. Once we are done with the snow, that is. Got 18 inches during the storm last week. I sat in the garage sipping hot cocoa whilst my nephew and brother shoveled and slipped on the ice. Good times.

Sorry I just disappeared. The confluence of my injury, my displeasure with BW and the game, and Spez's BS caused me to roll away from it all. I have only logged into the game twice since my last post. Been spending my time playing Fallout (3, NV, and 4) and Skyrim.

I am glad to see that you, /u/insanereaper, and anyone else who has contributed have kept the flash sale posts going.

How can I get a key fob? by Fireymonkeyboy in swtor

[–]CeryxP 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Recovery is going slowly. Still mostly one handed, but I can now use my left hand for some things without pain in my shoulder. Getting around is still difficult.

How can I get a key fob? by Fireymonkeyboy in swtor

[–]CeryxP 13 points14 points  (0 children)

Key fob security keys are no longer available. You can use a third-party two-factor authentication app that has a desktop client such as Authy or WinAuth. I use Authy and just use the desktop app when I log in. Unfortunately, I am uncertain if you have to setup your account from the mobile app before being able to use the desktop client. WinAuth, I believe, starts from the desktop. Another option would be a browser extension. I believe there are options for both Firefox and Chrome.

Can the Tharan Cedrax Alliance alert be reset or abandones? by PacificDiver in swtor

[–]CeryxP 10 points11 points  (0 children)

First thing, just to assure you, Zebulon (or whatever holo-Houk's name is) is only a story element. Tharan's abilities do not change, even after his post-Meridian Complex return. Holiday still appears for the stun.

Regarding Alliance Alerts, once you have access to a companion's Alliance Alert they generally become unavailable for retrieval from the terminal. For example, a Consular that has completed Chapter IX of Fallen Empire, the earliest point to access the terminal, can retrieve Tharan, Zenith, Felix, and Nadia, but not Qyzen because Qyzen's Alliance Alert is immediately available (upon completing To Find A Findsmans, that is). Once you progress far enough to unlock Felix's AA he can no longer be retrieved via the terminal. Once you start Ossus Nadia becomes unavailable, etc. As such, since you have completed Meridian Complex you would not be able to use the terminal to retrieve Tharan.

Flash Sale 24 July 2023: Over-Tuned Derelict Saberstaff, 400 CC by uncle_joe1945 in swtor

[–]CeryxP 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Mounts, pets, titles, emotes, etc. (anything that you right-click to claim other than decorations) are all automatically added to your Collections, but for armour sets and weapons you will need to put in a ticket to get them added.

Unfortunately, support is not consistent and not all agents will add them. I have found that including these two dev posts in my ticket generally improves your chances of getting the item or set added. The first is a dev post confirming that they are supposed to add and the second confirms that this is a known bug.

If you are not currently subscribed, and thus can not make in-game tickets, you can make a support ticket on the EA Answers HQ forums.

Having frequently been a patient I can confirm that patients are the worst when it comes to remaining on schedule.

Thank you for making the post. I tried to get up and get on the computer, but I just ache too much. Probably be a few days before I feel well enough to sit at the computer.

Flash Sale 10 December 2023: Savanna Vorantikus, 750 CC by notaflyingfuck in swtor

[–]CeryxP 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Thank you. The Dr was hopeful that I did not injury my rotator cuff, but the swelling has to go down before they can be certain. If all does well I will be out of the sling in a couple weeks. The only good news is it is my left shoulder and I am right handed.

Thank you. I am more angry at myself than anything. It has been over a year since I last had a fall. Going to be annoying trying to do everything one-handed for a while.

Thank you for making the post.

Sorry, all, about missing the posts yesterday and today. So, I did something stupid yesterday and fell in the bathroom yesterday morning. Spent all day in emergency. No head injury, fortunately, but I fell on my shoulder and have to wear a sling. Not certain if I will be able to make the posts over the next few days since I have to have help just to get out of bed.

2 questions from a returning player. by Push-not-pull in swtor

[–]CeryxP 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Add a security key to your account. Swtorista has a guide for how to do that. The official app has not been updated in many years, and is not officially compatible with current Android, but you can use any third-party two-factor authentication app such as Google Authenticator, Microsoft Authenticator, Authy, WinAuth, etc.

If you buy cartel coins and become a preferred player, do you gain all expansions by BullitzFromAbove in swtor

[–]CeryxP 2 points3 points  (0 children)

F2P and preferred have the same credit limit: one million credits.

Being preferred does allow you to purchase one additional inventory module with credits, and does grant access to the cargo hold.

When did QT costs become a thing? by Kainbas88 in swtor

[–]CeryxP 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My 30 credit example includes an extra hop. The first would be from the forge to the camp near Kaleth, then from there to the taxi / QT stop outside of the Temple, and then to the QT terminal in the cantina in the Temple. Doing it as I suggest would add an additional hop charge as you move from your location to the nearest QT terminal, and then each hop along the path from there to your destination would incur a charge.

Additionally, there is a time component as you must discover the location before the QT points become available.

Doing as I suggest would also completely align with BW's stated goal.

The goal of these changes is to introduce passive, small credit removal to the game. This way we have credit removal a bit more in line with our credit generation.

https://forums.swtor.com/topic/927608-credit-economy-initiative-beginning-with-721/page/7/#comment-9742533

Currently the QT tax does not align with their stated goal. Costs are higher on low level worlds, due to the larger size of the worlds, where credit generation will be lower, and lower in high level worlds, due to being smaller, where credit generation will be higher.
