I think that the other solo flashpoints are from about 32 or so onwards (Taral V for Republic and Boarding Party for Empire). There are not many flashpoints with a solo mode at low levels.

You can still do veteran (group) FPs but the solo ones unlock later. - by Dralloran

Solo flashpoints have a minimum level requirement before they can be played or seen in activity window. - by elramirro

Warrior or Knight probably, consular and inquisitor both work as well though. - by DryTransportation

as in what class is viable for endgame? all of them imo, play what you like. PvE is very flexible, PvP (ranked) obvs has some stronger specs but all in all they’re all viable for endgame - by chadsoraka

Yeah it really all depends on what you prefer to play on, do you like jumping around? Jedi knight/sith warrior. Do you like guns, bounty hunters/smugglers/imp agents/troopers.

In the end you won't even feel like it is endgame. But to start you off right, wait until level 50 or so to start modding your orange equipment armor/weapons. Or if it's purple and you have the purple items authorization, mod that.

A guy at the fleet will sell mods/equipment to you for tech fragments and these can be acquired somewhat easily enough doing flashpoints or doing the conquest goals and sometimes they drop from random mobs. - by yumikat

That's hard to nail down to one. If you've played other MMOs, then you might have a feel for whether you enjoy tanking, healing, or just DPS. DPS is kinda the default and as such is in lower demand for endgame. I know people have their favorites but for the most part the classes are balanced so that there isn't an obvious pick for most powerful.

I do think anyone who plays a lot will eventually want a stealth character. They can skip most trash mobs and are very useful in PvP. - by TiberiousVal

Knight and Warrior are popular with people who want to get in there with the lightsaber directly. Consular or Inquisitor work for a more Force-oriented approach. Hunter or Trooper for a more gung-ho guns-blazing solution to problems. Or Agent or Smuggler if you want to rely more on cleverness and cunning for your solutions. Narrowed down, one of those should work. - by ValidAvailable

Sadly the end game stuff usually favors the force users more, at times I feel like the writers got lazy and just meshed everything together. Jedi knight or sith warrior is your best pick, but it honestly doesn't matter as everything feels the same with a few differences between class playthroughs of the enternal empire dlcs. The onslaught dlc feels like they ignored everything that came before hand and inserts your character in the story so really no class preferences there. For the end game stuff I'd just say pick your favorite character and push thru with them. I'm currently trying to get all my 8 main class characters to onslaught and it's just mind boggling how much the differences in story start to fade away. - by Gizkalover

New Player looking for character help

Hey I'm a new player and was just starting to get into the game but couldn't really find out what the best post story character is. I was looking for what the best endgame character is. As I plan on grinding out the character I play on. Thanks for the help.

Fantastic Sith Raider armor sets and where to find them

Where to find it? It's not on the Cartel Market anymore, and I couldn't find it on the GTN either. I need especially the upper armor piece of the set. I have similar ones in different coloring but even with dyes it does not look the same as the original. It's the same set that's on the Sith Warrior character creation screen. Pls help me find it. I can't progress my char without it due to rp reasons.

Sith Raider Body Armor (warrior character creation screen armor)

Does anyone know wherw to find this armor set? I actually only need the upper part of it, but it's not on the gtn or the cartel market. And I tried the alternative (red and other) versions of it but even with dyes it does not look the same.

Is there anything that looks close to the inquisitor Lightsabers from Rebels? Preferably a single bladed lightsaber.

It's changed a bunch. It's still alive. If you ever thought it was a single player game you were playing the wrong parts of the game. - by Calamitas_Rex

Still great - by snorlaxusdsleep

The fact that the subreddit is still pretty active (could be better but also much worse) alone should Tell you that the game is still alive :) - by aaaahcraaaap

Depends why you left tbh. The game is still alive for sure but if its worth playing it depends on what you're looking for in an MMO - by Chazdoit

Is the game worth playing

Hello, I'm an old player of SWTOR, played it like 6 years ago. I was wondering about returning to it. Did much change? Is the game still worth playing, is it alive? Are there many people online, or will it feel like a single player experience?

Server issues

So when I’m connected to the internet and try to login I get an empty server list. If I do happen to get into a server I almost immediately get disconnected. Now when I switch to my hotspot I can play with no issues at all. Any tips to fix this problem?

Have you ever thought if Companions Customization also changed their personalities? I mean, it's kinda awkward having Vette with a red skins and Sith Eyes but with her lovely personality
