Sales Runs

  • What is a sales run?
  • Sale runs – has Scya or Mal ever been on one?
  • Is that cheating?
  • Is it healthy for the game?
  • How about items like nightmare crystals?
  • Is SWTOR “pay to win”?

YOU CAN’T MAKE THIS SITH UP

This week on You Can’t Make This Sith Up people on stealth classes who never sap. In a recent trip to the Red Reaper, a healer, whose name has been redacted to protect her cat, encountered a startling and disturbing phenomenon. You see, the flashpoint group included a scoundrel dps, a class celebrated both for making others “catch these hands” as well as their stealthing ability. Upon arriving at the first set of enemies that could be sapped and thus successfully passed by, the group waited eagerly as the scoundrel dropped into stealth, snuck up behind the enemy, and Back Blasted it….
