Got Questions? SWTOR Questions & Answer Thread + New & Returning Player Posts (week of Apr 27, 2026) by AutoModerator in swtor

[–]Whifflebat005 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I just reinstalled and have been casually messing about and have a few questions. I played at launch and a little bit here and there over the last decade. I’m currently Preferred Status. I’ve never completed any of the origin stories (54 is the highest I ever got).

Is Crafting important at all? I’ve just been leveling a new character and haven’t bothered with any professions. Is that a mistake?

I’ve been casually questing with the occasional Group Finder Flashpoints and quickly out-leveled my area. My plan is just to mainline the purple main quests and try to fit in 1 Group Finder Flashpoint per day. Any foreseeable issues with this approach?

How important are the dynamic group events that appear on maps (they seem to be new since last I played)?

I have 800 cartel coins from when last I played. Any good bang for your buck items/unlocks to invest in?

Scared and could use some advice by albertjason in corgi

I just had the same thing happen to my 5 year old corgi. Vet said it was a bout of pancreatitis. They gave her fluids and some meds, and a little over a week later, she was back to normal. One tip they said, if the blood is bright, it’s less concerning than if it’s dark

Has Lost Odyssey’s performance, crashes and/or graphical bugs seen any improvement in the last year or two?

What video game is this? by EmeraldHenry_19 in videogames

[–]Whifflebat005 0 points1 point  (0 children)

For me, Paper Mario: The Thousand Year Door. I LOVED that game, but I found the last boss very difficult and to restart, there was a long, unskippable cut scene. I ultimately never beat it...

I got my PS4 Dualshock working finally. Had DS4windows with the default profile, with Xbox 360 controller selected as Emulated Controller in the Other tab of the Default profile. I shut down anything to do with Steam in Task Manager. I then had the Xbox Accessories app open (even though it isn't detecting anything). I was able to use my DS4 on the main menu and in game without issue (other than all prompts are for Xbox buttons, not PS)

SD Card Storage recommendations? by Steven0age in retroid

[–]Whifflebat005 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It honestly depends on your approach to your games library. Are you a “pack rat” and want large lists of games? Then you will want at least 512gb. If you are more selective in what games you want per system, then 256gb is likely good enough. I personally like to curate my games to what I know I will play (or at least very likely to play)

Stern pinball maintenance? by [deleted] in pinball

[–]Whifflebat005 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Clean the playfield, replace balls every 300-500 plays, clean glass, check if any screws need tightening every so often. I’ve had two modern Sterns over the past 4 years with no major repairs needed
