YYYEEEESSSSSS!!!!! THAT IS MY POINT! /me beats head on table. They are not moving past the second galaxy because they run out of room one galaxy in!

What is desperately needed is a massive reduction in the price for resetting your class. As far as I know, it increases at an exponential rate up to a cap of 500 million. What's the point of this even? It sure isn't a sink for credits, when there's trillions floating around from colonies. The money is trivial to anyone who's been playing for long enough to get to the higher techs around 19-20 and up. It serves no purpose but to punish new players for experimenting with the different classes.

Remove or make the cost for resetting the skills something like 1 million at most, as is the system is just pointless and silly.

Edit: Accidental gravedig, somehow misread the OP as being in 2017 instead of years ago like it was.

That said, a number of the bullet points still haven't been fixed. My bad though.

Wonder how old that suggestion is... We could sit in this thread and talk about what should be done for weeks, won't change the fact that the admins are gonna do what they're gonna do...

Do you mean per character level, up to the 500 cap? With how quickly new players are able to level up now in some of the zones that can rise really quickly.
