Ja, det kommer säkert gå att flytta sin gubbe mellan servrar (om det inte redan gör det) men jag tänkte att det kanske skulle ha varit bra om vi alla kunde ha börjat spela på samma server redan från början. För när man har kommit till story line 1 så aktiveras funktionen the Legacy System. Det är då man kan binda ihop sina gubbar till en familj; som ett släktträd, och de kan få ett familjenamn oavsett om de är Jedi eller Sith. Och då är det ju dumt att sprida ut sina gubbar mellan flera servrar. Bara en tanke jag hade...
What is the Legacy System?The Legacy system is a game feature that allows players to create a “family” of characters who share a single surname, or what is formally called as a Legacy Last Name.
Can this be shared among characters?Mr. Ohlen said the Legacy Last Name “is shared across all characters on that server – so choose carefully!” Functionally, this creates an identifying marker for each player even when switching between various alts.
How can I unlock the Legacy System?In the initial character creation screen, players will not be able to provide a Legacy Last Name to their level 1 toon. A character will only gain the privilege of adopting a surname once he or she has finished the Chapter 1 storyline.
What is the Chapter 1 storyline?
SWTOR breaks up the game content into several “Chapters” and the Chapter 1 storyline is believed to encompass the beginner’s zone and an extensive immersion into a character’s chosen class, be it a Bounty Hunter, a Smuggler or any of the other six playable classes.
Previous developer interviews suggest that there will be a total of eight Chapters for each class, with lead writer Daniel Erickson saying one Chapter is comparable to the content of the whole Knights of the Old Republic game.
What are the restrictions to the Legacy System?Like Mr. Ohlen mentioned, it must be unique to that server. So far that’s it. BioWare has not yet defined the limits on spelling conventions, character counts and conflicts with iconic surnames in the Star Wars canon like “Skywalker”.
What are the other features of the Legacy System?Aside from sharing the same surname, all characters linked by the Legacy Last Name will be able to contribute experience toward a legacy level. It is still unknown what the rewards are for increasing legacy levels, but it is speculated to provide a host of passive benefits, possibly including XP, combat and SWTOR Credits boosts.
“We already have plans for how we will expand the functionality of the Legacy System in one of our major post-ship patches. This will include being able to shape your Legacy’s family tree,” added Mr. Ohlen.
We’ll be updating this FAQ guide as more information trickles in from BioWare and EA. But until then, tell us what you think of the Legacy System. Is it gimmicky? Or does it fit into the highly immersive experience that SWTOR says is its ace in the hole against other MMOs?
