    Legacy Perks

    I was wondering what is your favorite of the new Legacy perks. My favorite is getting speeders at level 10. All my low lvl alts are now jetting across those early mission planets. Even my level 40 is in 50 level speeder. Once you look at it, the price is not that bad once you subtract what training would have cost. Of course the XP enhancements are great, but for convenience sake it is hard to beat speeders for under 25 lvl characters.

    So far, of all the character perks, the mail and repair droid have been by far the most useful.

    The XP ones are just ''ok'' as the gain is just too small for too small a portion of the game it comes from.

    I would normally agree with you on the speeders... 6 months ago when the majority of my characters were low enough that it would really benefit them.

    Priority transports are nice, even if ive only used them a couple times - give us one to our ship!

    Thought respec would have been really valuable to me... however ive never had the need of it so far.

    Companion affection ones are decent, though its only a time saver.

    Crafting isnt for me as im not a crafter (despite having a 400 of every crafting skill in the game).

    The speeder ones are AWESOME. I spent credits on some of the XP ones for my current leveling focus. I will not do that again. Just not seeing that big of a bang. Maybe the PvP one would be worth it, but I'm not a PvP'r.

    The crafting crit ones are ok... Have yet to purchase them because they are pricey and I mostly make mods/armor/etc.

    I think the affection perks are good also. I believe a lot of people miss out on the benefits of maxing out your companion affection.

    The speeder perk is awesome for my lvl 15 Sage now. 110% new Speeder and I can use it now. No need for me to buy more Speeder perks.

    Are we really traveling at 110%? I did a few unscientific tests and I'm not seeing it.

    We are. I was like Wroooooom in Coruscant. Hover over your mouse on the Speeder icon and you see it say 110%.

    Ive had all 3 ranks for a while now. Rocket boost - whilst ridiculously overpriced - is still very nice to have.

    Rocket Boots

    Yes, I have this Rocket Boots perk, but I was disappointed with it for the price I paid. It came in handy with lower lvl alts and sometime with my main character, but it is not worth the price of 2 million. 12 second duration is too short of a time for this to be very helpful. Though it is fun to show-off with, kinda like those big-arse 50 lvl speeders that look like cars, the show-off value is much higher than the utility value.

    This, and I'd like to see more of it.

    When a friend asks for help with something it's nice to be able to get there without 3-4 load screens and a lot of travel. I'm hoping eventually there's options to get more of these and getting around doesn't take more time than actually playing does.

    I created a thread on character perks we can make up ourselves on the official forum. Priority Transport: Personal Starship, which i suggested was well received by those who replied.
