Is it just me or does everyone else have a lot of gear sitting at 3k plus peices and always needing certian mk3 and mk5 items. It's super annoying that the same gear piece is needed on four levels of a toon and needed by a lot of toons and have no existent drop rates while I'm flooded with gear that barely anything uses! This is very frustrating to me.

That's because that gear is dropped 15x a week from challenges which adds up.

Love that Mace Windu challenge gear! There’s a reason he was thrown from a window.

Those of us playing since launch remembered a time when the Sell button was one of the left side cantina buttons, where you could sell gear. It was removed within six months, with the odd explanation that players were unknowingly selling gear they needed. Since then people have asked countless times fir the ability to sell or convert gear, and you can see how well that's gone over with the devs by the fact that it's still an issue.The other way to look at "useless" gear is that it's a freebie. You'll never have to worry about that slot ever again.

I’m over 10k on mos of those, lets get a trade system going from 100 to 1 on stun gun salvage, even 1k to 1 would be fine with me

Having same issues with overload on unwanted and unuseable gear. There should really be a method in place to counter it. I'd recommend bringing in a gear conversion system and/or gear sell.

What's plain idiotic is that they get chincy with lvl 4 of a piece, yet you'll have 2000 of the same piece at lvl 5. Be nice to be able to downgrade, or sell the 'superior' piece to get the lesser version. Or, better yet, if the toon requires the lvl 4 piece for gear 7 and 8, use the lvl 5 piece at 9+ or something. It's not real useful to give you a crap ton of stuff that you rarely ever use.

Really????? FWIW, no profanity was used. I basially used a slightly stronger word than stupid.

That true it just gets so annoying when you need the same two and never have it

Didn’t Mace come first so Jaime probably became the Mace of the GoT world

The mass of some gear doesn’t hinder gameplay so they’ll never bother removing it, but I wonder how much space is taken up with it

Actually, it will depend on how you look at it.

Jamie lived in the time of Dragons
Mace lived in the time of intergalactic travel

Depending on if those times are parallel in the aspect of the writers timeline is undetermined. IRL as a spectator looking in, you are VERY correct. Plus Mace would not waste his time on the likes of Jamie.

Jaime lived after the time of dragons and during the rebirth and reintroduction of dragons. There is a legend that magic diminished when the dragons left the world.

Mace lived during the time when Krayt Dragons roamed Tatooine. There is a legend of a dragon taking up residence in the cave the Boonta Eve pod race went through.
