Ding! 50!
I reached level 50 with my smuggler on Monday. That’s 49 days since launch, and just under 7 days of /played time (my Jedi Knight alt has 2days and my two imperial characters have about 12hrs between them). Bioware said each class has about 200hrs of story, which isn’t far off since I’m not done with the class quest and didn’t do all of the quests on each planet (much to my chagrin since I now have a dozen undroppable quests hogging up my quest log, I’ve started going back to try and clear them).
So in those 7 days of play time, what have and haven’t I accomplished?
Have Done
- Gotten my class quest to Corellia
- Outfitted my character with mostly orange clothing and made purple lvl 49 armoring and barrels for them, along with blue mods
- Reached rank 13 in Valor (PVP)
- Fully outfitted my ship with purple ship gear and gained about 800 space commendations
- Gotten my companions affection to: Corso 9000+, Bowdaar 6000+, Akavaar and Risha ~5000, Guss 3000+
- Gotten to 400 Armstech, Scavenging, Investigation
- Completed about half the flashpoints on regular
Haven’t Done
- Finished my class story.
- Done all the bonus quests on every world (I did Hoth, Balmorra, and Tatooine)
- Done all the regular quests on every world (I have to go back to Alderaan, Balmorra, Nar Shadaa, Quesh, Belsalvis to clear some quests from my log)
- Reached level 60 in Valor pvp rank
- Completed a Hard mode flashpoint (we tried False Emperor last night but it was bugged)
- Outfitted my companions (is this necessary at max level?)
- Gotten above Social 1
- Explored all the worlds
- Figured out where all of the vendors are for stuff. I want companion customization things, and need to figure out which world they are all on for instance
- Found a duster for my smuggler I like
- Get one of those wide brimmed smuggler hats
- Find more than two datacrons. Part of my revisiting all the worlds will need to be collecting those
- Run a single Operation. In fact, I still need to figure out what gear I can acquire from Operations and Hardmode flashpoints
So, even though I’ve reached level 50, there is still a lot to do in the game. My Jedi is sitting at level 25, making money on cybertech. Need to move his story along at some point. There are my two Imperials I’ll play occasionally. And I still want to play Consular and Trooper. 50 is only the beginning.
