So, this morning, I had a dentist appointment, and since I am 100000% freaked out by dentists, I started thinking about things to distract me, and I ended up coming up with a blog series idea for my blog. Then I remembered I never did finish my Music in #SWTOR blog... Maybe I should finish that.

So, for my #SWTOR Trooper Class Story recordings, I made a bunch of different outfits (Mostly Republic military-themed), plus a few fun ones, like these two. And since they are mostly CM and Legacy-bound outfits, I can reuse them in other recordings! More info on the outfits below 1/

I was opening some of the Cantina Crates (From the 2015 Cantina events) on an older storage character I had made, and I got a Bind to Legacy Irradiated Varactyl! It must have a really low drop rate, since this is the first time I've seen it. #SWTOR

Has anyone bought CC today, and not had them show up, even though the payment went through, and the site says that the order was complete? #SWTOR

I finished recording Act II of the Trooper Story last night, then started thinking of changing the Havoc Armor from the quoted post to one of the below (Ignore the Helmet). Option A has the Republic & Havoc Logo, but it has a backpack. Option B only has the Havoc logo, but no backpack... #SWTOR

I sent in my submission for the Best Dressed Contest. And while I know it's a long shot, I wonder what would happen if I won. Would I have to change my character's name? I mean, why ask to see the Character name in the UI if they aren't going to use it in the Deco?

Today I celebrated a little milestone on my #SWTOR blog, publishing my 1500th post there. As I've done on previous occasions, I use this as a bit of a dump for random blog facts:

My girlfriend doesn't play #SWTOR yet, but I've talk enough about it with her (Mainly about all the recording and editing I've been doing for my 15th anniversary fan trailer), that she wants to play when she gets a better computer. I can now use this meme (Even though she already has a daughter)

I finally came up with an outfit using the Life Day Officer set. Slap the Gray and Vulcanized Red Dye into the chestpiece, and the Nightfall Operative Glasses, and it's a perfect disguise for my Trooper to wear when she infiltrates Club Vertica during the Trooper Story. #SWTOR 1/2

Fellow #SWTOR players on Star Forge: Are there any guilds and/or players that would be willing to help me run some of the early Ops (Likely Karagga's Palace, & Temple of Sacrifice, Maybe the two Oricon ones, and Explosive Conflict) to grab some of the cutscenes to use in my tribute trailer.

Alex D. Geslin @alexdgeslin.bsky.social · 21/09/2026

Strip the cannon off of the GDW Weaponcarrier, and it would be perfect for Forex! Seriously, my Trooper needs her patriotic war droid riding shotgun with her! #SWTOR

I've been playing ##SWTOR since launch, and never once have I seen a Czerka Crate-O-Matic drop. Never once while I've been playing alone, or in a group. And then, tonight I was in a Group fighting Lucky on Corellia, and I saw the Crate-O-Matic drop for another player...

As I've been replaying the #SWTOR Trooper Story (Almost done with Act I, just arrived on Tatooine), I remembered these three bugged quests, that had been posted in the Bug-report forums back in '20... and nothing after. So, might as well report them again! forums.swtor.com/topic/945629...

youtu.be/ICmMmZMhz68?... I want to say this video is cool... but, apart from three characters in the thumbnail, there is no #SWTOR in the video. And this year is their 15th anniversary... That's just plain insulting to the current development team at Broadsword that still works on TOR every day.

Sadly, I didn't get as much recorded for the Trooper Story as I had hoped over my four-day weekend... BUT, I managed to finish both her and Jorgan's outfits. Thankfully, I had the CC for the Dyes I needed #SWTOR The captions are self-explanatory, but I can list the pieces below if anyone wants 1/6

What videogame changed your life? I've said it before, but playing #SWTOR got me into video editing, which led me to get a degree in Video Editing in College. I wish I actually used my degree on a more consistent basis at work, instead of just at home, but... what can you do?

@geekyfriedrice.bsky.social 1. I love that you all are always posting the music! Does this mean we've got all the new music from LotS now? And 2... How am I going to get through the rest of my day and resist the urge to listen!?!?!

I've finished my Smuggler Story recordings (Not counting Akaavi's romance), and now onto Sergeant Nikálette Davfel. (Hopefully, I can finish the other class stories by October, and take my Smuggler through the expansions and get what I need for my 15th Anniv fan trailer before December 20th! #SWTOR

Life was a bitch in general, and I got distracted, but I'm about to start Voss with my Smuggler and should finish the class story by Thursday. Then I can start the Trooper story. If I am lucky, I should have my class story recordings done by mid-Oct, and get the Exps done with my Smuggler #SWTOR 1/2

Ohhhh! Can't wait to see more! And hopefully, I'll be finished with, or at least have the bulk of my fifteenth Anniversary fan tribute trailer recorded by the time MotF launches, and hopefully can add that bit to the trailer! #SWTOR

I decided to only buy the RF-9 Cybernetic Adapter because it looks like a pair of sunglasses. And my Agent looks awesome. I just hope the Cyborg accessories stay on in romance cutscenes. Or hope 8.0 adds a separate "accessories" tab for stuff like this (And to change the cutscene blaster)! #SWTOR

If anyone has the Fitted SoroSuub Molytex Armor Set, could you possibly do a test for me, and preview the chestpiece with both of the Havoc Squad dyes? I want to see if it looks the same as the Veteran Infantry set does with those two dyes. #SWTOR

I probably won't be able to watch this until either lunch or when I get off work, but then I'll have to relay this all to my girlfriend, who has never played TOR but wants to. *Yes, having a girlfriend is a recent event.

WOOOOOO! I have a few 8.0 hopes (Although I doubt it'll happen, but I REALLY want to change the look of the Cutscene pistol that Rifle/Assault Cannon classes use). And Maybe some more music releases (I'm pretty sure we still have a few tracks missing, but I haven't had a chance to do much research)

Alex D. Geslin @alexdgeslin.bsky.social · 27/07/2026

I'm going to have to dust off the Season 9/10 Blue Jumpsuit I wore to my local comic con a few years back for this! (Assuming it still fits!)

000

Alex D. Geslin @alexdgeslin.bsky.social · 23/07/2026

The hat on the left (Dashing Rogue's Goggles) is the one my Smuggler is wearing now, but I keep thinking of having him wear the Outer Rim Drifter's Hat. The hat itself looks great (We need more small-brimmed hats in #SWTOR)... the one downside is the mask. But, with the right dye, it is tolerable.

The "Cutscene Torchy" we give back to Corso looks different than the Torchy we get as a mission reward at the end of Chapter I's Finale. Although there isn't a 100% identical blaster, there are a few fitted ones that have the same model, such as the Fitted Wandrau Arms Custom DL-20. #SWTOR

Now I feel like digging out my copy and rereading it, for fan fiction writing purposes. Pity we never got an updated version with stuff from RotHC to now (I really need to know the birth dates of certain characters) #SWTOR

It's been a rough month... At 4:13 this afternoon, my cat, Oreo, passed away. She was almost 18 years old. And she was at home with my mom and me when she passed. She was fine on Thursday morning when I left for work, but she got sick while I was at work, according to my mom. 1/3

Alex D. Geslin @alexdgeslin.bsky.social · 07/07/2026

As I've been replaying the Korriban Class Story, with Azariyah, I've started figuring my headcanon for her and how to keep Acoyte Kory alive and have her join my Inquisitor's crew. And maybe have a budding relationship between Kory, Azariyah, and Andronikos. #SWTOR

000

Alex D. Geslin @alexdgeslin.bsky.social · 04/07/2026

So, in addition, I added Valkorion's crown as a headpiece, changed her hairstyle (The little piece of jewelry on her forehead is part of the hair and works with Valkorion's crown), and changed her first name. #SWTOR And her new first name has the same number of letters as Kallig's first name.

Alex D. Geslin @alexdgeslin.bsky.social · 03/07/2026

So, I logged in to buy a character rename for my Inquisitor (More on that later), and what do I see? Master's Datacron on sale.... #SWTOR You're all feeding my Altoholic tendencies @geekyfriedrice.bsky.social 😂

So, I'm about ready to start Chapter II of the Smuggler Story, and I'm updating the outfits & weapons of my Companions, which is normally easy, but I'm torn on the weapon to give Bowdaar. Normally, I'd give him Ri'kan's Vibro-Axe, but the new Pit Fighter's Vibroblade fits his backstory... #SWTOR

Alex D. Geslin @alexdgeslin.bsky.social · 24/06/2026

So, something different I'm doing in my playthrough is using an off-hand blaster that keeps evolving. #SWTOR 1/2 The first pistol is the Riot Shrieker, the second is the R-30017 Aikion, and the third is the Fitted Resolute Repeating Hand-Canon. They all have the same texture, just added pieces.

Alex D. Geslin @alexdgeslin.bsky.social · 23/06/2026

So, I'm on my way home from work, and I'm listening to the Solo Deluxe Edition Soundtrack (As one does), and I realized that the track "L3 & Millennium Falcon" would work perfectly in this cutscene from the Smuggler story. So, I threw this together when I got home. #SWTOR

020

Alex D. Geslin @alexdgeslin.bsky.social · 22/06/2026

So, I decided to change the chestpiece and sword that my Inquisitor wears on Korriban. Originally, she was wearing the Rune Seeker's Tunic, but I switched it to the Shasa Adherent's Robe with the Sith Apprentice Dye, since the latter doesn't have a lowered hood that clips with her sword. 1/5 #SWTOR
