"Pop quiz:  How did Boba Fett get his uninsured gear back after being swallowed by the Sarlaac?  He used the /corpse command of course!  If you're within 10 meters of your corpse use the /corpse command to teleport it to your location.  Usefull if it's in a hard to reach spot."

 

Just wanted to update this tip a bit and say that now you can /corpse from 40m away from your corpse now which makes it even easier if the little bugger that killed you is camping your body !!!

When doing a destroy mission on a nest/den/lair of a weak mob, you can use point blank area attack (works with a blaster, not sure about other weaps) on the nest itself. This will cause you to attack all the mobs at the same time and can basically clean up the whole nest worth of mobs in the time it takes to kill the nest itself.

Did You Know?

 

You can name your droids! 

Just use a name when you're programming him in the same manner mentioned earlier in this thread.  Instead of typing /say <command>, type /say <droid name> <command>.  For example,

Teaching my new droid, that I want to call Rover, to follow me:

/say Rover Follow me

After you teach it 3-5 different commands while using it's name, It will adopt that name as its own.

"Finally, if you're a marksman, the best thing you can do for yourself is get the best possible weapon you can find. Spare no expense. Direct trades with crafters are almost always better than the bazaar"

I realized this when using the bazzar that nothing is more that 3k and no weapon is better then the second to lowest i.e., dlt20 rifle is the highest you'll find on the Bazaar cuz anything higher costs more than the 3k limit.

Then the problem I have (and this is my question). How the heck do you find a Master Weaponsmith good enough to build the higher level weapons. I've tried the searches under CTRL-P but it only finds people that are near you and they are all Novice. I tried looking for vendors but all you get is the stupid junk dealers. I looked on the planetary map to find vendor shops but they don't showup their. It seems ridiculous that they limited the amount on the Bazaar to force you to use player vendors but then don't give you a good way to find them.

Perhaps I'm missing something.

Oh, also if you use the find command and want to find something specific like a combat guild (were you'll find the mission terminals frequently) the command is /find guild:combat.

Is there a way to search for individual terminals?

Did you know you can remap all of your hotbar keys?

Ctrl O for options, Controls (i think), Keymap, under the UI tab I believe.  Scroll down and remap those hotkeys from F keys to the Number keys on the keyboard (not the numpad) then you can reach them easier!

Playing in a modified WASD key configuration this allows you to move and don almost everything without ever having to move your hand more than an inch.

Did you know you can scroll to the next bank of hotbar keys by using Ctrl F1, Ctrl F2 etc?  Try it, you'll like it.

i remapped my different hotkey panes to the numpad.  i never used the numpad for camera controls, so now it is useful.  this definitely beats ctrl-tab and ctrl-~ for switching your hotkeys around.

Here's my additions...

Did you know..

That each server has their own message board?? I'm sure you did, but someone asked how to find who was selling weapons better then on the bazaar. Well if it's any major crafter that wants to make themself known, one of the easiest placest to check would be your server boards. And if not on there, ask around, all the good artisans probably have their own vendors out of town to get around the 3k bazaar limit.

Did you know..

When you make a custom macro you can go into the keymap option window and assign it ANY keystroke, not just the F# hotkeys. Look under the custom commands in the keymap settings. if you are like me and make drastic changes to your keymap this will allow you to utilize your particular
settings.


Now my question to pose.. I know there is a /equip command but how does one go about using it and is it even for removing and putting on equipment. This would enable equipment changes to be done with a single keystroke macro.
