Swtor Crafting Guide Video From SwtorFace.com

The guys over at Swtorface have released a excellent video showing you exactly how to craft in Swtor and also how to get your companions to craft for you and gather materials. Its well worth a watch for anyone that is interested in crafting in Swtor.

Watch it below:

As you can see crafting in Swtor is excellent, I really like the crew skills system since you can send your NPC shipmates away to do chores that would maybe bore most players. Also being able to stack up your companions missions for when your asleep is a feature that I was very excited about.

I’m sure you also see that you have the option to reverse engineer anything you create to improve your crafting skill. You can also discover new schematics from doing this so it is really worth you time doing if you are planning to be a big crafter in Swtor. The only downside to using you crew members around the clock is the fact that sending them on missions to gather resources costs credits. Of course once you work out a system to profit from these missions you will no longer need to worry about that.

Sending your Swtor companions on missions will also increase your reputation with that crew member and they can also find rewards such as credits, valuable items and companion gifts which you can give to your companions to open up side quests and romance plots.

Here at Swtor Guide I’m going to go into companions and companion gifts real soon and let you guys know how you can benefit from using companions, Not only can you get them to do a lot of work for you but they can also reward you with a lot of exp from their side quests. A lot of these side quests are only dialog conversations so you can get exp for doing nothing really. So stay tuned for that within the coming days.

Swtor Guide – Swtor Companions

I am sure that many of you have played Kotor and was kept from being lonely by the great companions or team mates that Bioware put into those two great games. It appears that this companion system is going to also be in Swtor!?!

Some of you may be thinking that it is odd to have a companion system in a mmorpg. Yeah it worked real well in the console solo rpg’s. But how well is it going to work online in a mmorpg? The answer to this question is somewhat not known right now since hardly anyone has had the chance to try it out. So you will have to wait and see.

The companions in Swtor are going to provide the exact same thing they did in Kotor. That being combat assistance, in game commentary, Comedy, Company and most importantly more side quests that are unique to each companion. Each class will also have there own set of unique companions which they can acquire. It also appears that you will be in control of your companions skills and gear again. Also you will be able to take these NPC companions along with you when you are with other players.Wookiee 169x300 Swtor Guide   Swtor Companions
You will be able to interact with your companions the exact same as the solo rpgs kotor, And can even engage in romance with them if you wish. Knowing Bioware there will be a large selection of different types of companions each with their own story, strengths and weaknesses. Ranging from weird aliens to clever droids companions are certainly going to make a difference not only in PvE but also in PvP.

Some missions and quests in Swtor will be completed using your companions skills and this means you will need to make the right choice between a skilled hacker droid or a battle hardened medic. Taking the right companion will be key.

I am just left with the question on how well this type of system that worked so well not only in Kotor but in most other Bioware games (Mass Effect 2, Dragon Age etc) is going to work in a mmorpg. I know this is not a new thing in mmorpgs since most games have a companion or pet class. But it appears that everyone in Swtor will have companions to fight along side them.
