I just got into SWG. They were running a free two week promotion so I figured I'd give it a go. I've really been enjoying it thus far. The more I play, the less I realize I know about it...which I feel is a good thing as it keeps me interested.
I will most likely continue my subscription once the trial period is over. There are a large number of possibilities one can explore, and I've only just begun to develop my character. I find it quite amusing that a womp rat offers a significant challenge, and over 90% of all NPCs I encounter would deal me a quick death should I decide to engage them. I mean here I am thinking I'm king of the world when I lay into one with my carbine for 200+ damage, and notice their health meter barely budged...and the return barrage drains my health to almost zero.
Anyway, I'm not quite sure what server I'm on at the moment...I just chose the recommended one on character creation. Any of you vets out there care to take in a relative newbie and offer advice/tips? My character is a combination marksman/scout/medic with novice artisan skills. I'm pretty much at the point where killing the small creatures is a waste of time, but going solo against the larger ones is suicide.
