RE mods crafted by other players.

I am sure most of you know this but I couldnt see it up so figured I would post it anyway...
(You can find mention of this in several places, including the SWTOR official forums, so I am not the originator of this, I am simply reposting it here because I couldnt find mention of it)

The trick is simple enough. It allows you to RE any item modification crafted by another player to give you a chance to learn the schematic to be able to craft it yourself.

Great way of learning those pesky ops/HM schematic drops such as the 27 modification schematics so you can craft and sell them yourself for a nice profit.

Note: Of course you need the necessary Crafting skill to be able to RE the modification (such as armstech for barrel, cybertech for armoring etc)

The trick explained:
  1.  Get a player crafted mod from GTN/Another player. 
  2.  Place it into an item slot on a piece of armor or similar.
  3.  Go to a mod station and rip it out into your inventory again. This is the "glitch" part that removes he crafted flag from the mod.
  4.  RE the mod and it gives you the chance to learn a schematic from it.
  5.  Craft the item yourself and profit!

Hope you found this useful!

Legacy and heroic moment abilities without companion


If you use the Darth Malgus Holostatue or the republic version, then you can activate any of the abilities requiring a companion out. You can do this trick with either the imperial or republic holostatue, but obviously as the tooltip says you have to be the same side as the statue to use it as a trainer.

Once your statue is out then you can activate any ability that requires heroic moment. This includes sacrifice/unity, heroic moment, and any class legacy abilities you may have unlocked. The holostatue only has a 1 min CD, so you are more limited by the CD of the ability you choose to activate. I am not sure if using unity shares a cooldown with your class heroic moment and/or a legacy ability, but this allows you to use these abilities during warzones and operations. Note: unity is the ability with a 5 min. cooldown that makes you take 50% less damage for 15 seconds--quite OP for warzones and useful in pve especially for tanks.

How To Get 10 Black Hole Coms a Day Instead of 5 Doing HMs

So here we go, how to get 10 Black Hole commendations a day rather than just 5 doing your daily HM. I ran into a bug where if i was disconnected from a HM using the group finder tool, i would not receive my Black Hole commendations, well i found a way to exploit that and here is how.


1. Queue up using the group finder, doesn't matter if it is pugg'd or if you have a full group and get a random one.

2. Click travel now, and once you are inside the instance at some point disconnect (unplug ethernet cable, turn off wifi card, you guys get the idea). Then reconnect back, if you are pugg'ing make sure to do this somewhat fast as they may vote to kick you and you will have to start all over!

3. No after you are re-connected, finish the HM as normal. At the end, you will notice you WILL NOT receive your 5 Black Hole commendations. This is GOOD, keep reading.

4. Write a ticket explaining what happened and how you did not receive your Black Hole commendations even though you did the random HM using the group finder tool. (they will take anywhere from 1 hour to 3 days, I'm sure you guys know how bad BW customer service is). They will then tell you that you indeed do your HM and will either mail, or just add the 5 Black Hole commendations to your inventory.

Now i know what you guys are saying, but that's only 5 Black Hole commendations idiot! But here's the fun part, after writing your ticket pull up the group finder tool. It will say you are still able to do a HM for the 5 Black Hole Commendations! So do another HM and don't disconnect this time, get your 5 BH commendations and when BW customer service see's that you did do X HM using the group finder tool and did not receive your commendations they will give you another 5!

Easy version.

1. Queue up

2. Disconnect from instance at some point.

3. Finish HM and write a ticket saying you never got your commendations.

4. Do another HM and finish it like normal and get your 5 Black Hole commendations.

5. In 1 - 3 days get another 5!


I've been doing this for a week on 3 50's and haven't had a single issue with bans or warnings so as far as i know this is safe to do. Also, make sure to give details as to which toon did not get the commendations and which HM they did, this way the customer service won't look at the 2nd HM you did and say you already got your 5 commendations!

Security Chest, 4-9k credits + lvl50 items every 20 mins

I got a warning for farming this chest on Ilum, so be careful but see image attached. I made about 70k per hour whilst afk, roughly 50k in credits and the rest in items/medpacks.

Go to the location on the image, run down the cave (Empire managed) and you'll see a light blue area with blue crystals, there is a droideka bot guarding it (Empire bot).

Camp that beast

I have Diablo 3 secrets to tell but to the worthy alone!

This is about my best friend. He is a Diablo 3 master. Yes, it's true. I used to watch him play Diablo 3 and picked up tips from him at regular intervals. But I realized his true worth when he moved out of town. Initially, I was too lonely and had stopped playing. Once day, during a phone call, he asked me to get back to the game. He said he had new secrets to tell me.

I suddenly found new interest in life again. The next day my friend emailed me a PDF guide for Diablo 3! I was shocked to read the guide. Simply because it had secrets I could bet no one knew. You would be surprised to know that I leveled up in five days. Yes, you read that right: I leveled up in five days all the way from 1 to 60!

YOU can get the guide yourself below:
