Gear 12 full pieces speculation. Level increase, gear 13 bosses? Etc

We know from an earlier event, more than a year ago, that in game characters (NOT players) can get up to level 90. I don't remember which event, but it was the first appearance of R2, at gear 12, and he was level 90

Please no. Nobody wants to start farming speed mods again.

We already have a way to win full g12 pieces, they just aren’t very common drops (and of course you need a sufficient number of stars).

I think the level cap was raised to 85 shortly after AAT raids were released. I has been well over a year since they raised the level cap. I would imagine that would happen before mod or gears increases.

No new raid would be complete without a new way to earn challenge gear.

*rimshot* *audience groan*

It’s funny because it’s true. Nothing is more aggravating than finally being able to solo the pit only to have your rank 1 drops be nothing but challenge gear. Sure, it’s nice getting 20 salvages at once instead of 6, but it’s still awful.

Funny. I posted something similar last night about this very topic and got pushed into the 12/7 megathread death spiral which no one would bother reading. I would be less salty if it was even the right megathread, which should have been the 12/8 megathread about the road ahead, but here we are. Ill quote myself here again below for clarity:

I am as hyped as anyone with the decision to breathe a bit of new life into the characters of KOTOR, but with that and the new raid, no one seems to be bringing up the obvious. Each new raid brought a new sort of crunch and grind. To be fair I know the post is a teaser and there will be time for details later, but what kind of new crunch can we expect? Exclusive gear to go to G13? It would make sense now why certain G12 gear was added to shipments. Or is it new level 6/7 mods? 6/7 star mods were originally suppose to be included as HAAT rewards. Or will there be an increase in the level cap? To be honest none of those grinds sounds too enticing to me considering that territory wars made essentially every toon important.

All these people in the forum must be whales cause they always act so excited about new tier mods, more gear levels, ect. Forgiting that for the average player this stuff takes a very long time to get.

I mean i wouldn't want g13 to come until at least next year, I only have 7-8 g12s and only a couple of them have post g12 pieces and g12 has been out for half a year. TB and TW drop 3 salvages which is pathetic.

I can't see how you guys fail to see that the acquisition rate of gear and mods is so slow that we need more time, instead you beg for more. You guys must be really well off, throw some tips my way, I'd love to make how much you all make.

Please don’t assume that you speak for the community - i’d love to see higher tier mods and won’t mind farming speed mods again.

Oh and JKA needs a new ability and two zetas (farm boy Luke has two)

Considering his comment has 8 likes and yours has none, I think the community is siding with him. And I agree, new mod tiers do not sound fun. Perhaps they will only be available initially AS rewards though, and not farmable. That would keep everyone moderately even for a while, then they could add them to challenges later.

I could handle new mods as long as something is done to make each mod type and each secondary have value.

If it's the same thing we have now but at a higher level then a hard pass for me.
