They have now, haven't they? His death was left up in the air before.
They confirmed he fell down the shaft, Malgus fate was left unknown and yes you can pretty much kill him without using the grenade but canonically he was never confirmed to be dead.
They changed his fight. Instead of falling down the shaft, he will lay on the ground death after the fight.
All Datacrons on Tython, Ord Mantell, Taris and Nar Shaddaa collected -- Unto Tatooine next!
Just got the Datacron in the Dune Sea, with that 30 min balloon ride.
Phew! Luckily no Imps were around to mess up. I remember trying to collect it with my SW, which took a lot of man power since Reps were camping in the area.
I can't believe you guys are bothering with those 
They grant some neat stats bonuses along with the shards being molded into Relics, which is neat.
Anyway, I hope BioWare doesn't ban me now for reporting a guy for spamming, even though the actual annoyance was him disrupting gameplay in a warzone by deliberately helping the other team in Huttball. Blergh.

Hey now, they give some additional stats (especially if you collect many) and plus some of them are fun to collect. Currently in Empire territory on Tatooine, trying to get the datacron.
Managed to stay hidden from Imp players so far. 
I will never do the datacrons. I did one on taris that took half an hour due to bullshit jumping puzzles. Never again.

While the main stat boosts are nice, its too much work for too little gain imo.
But have fun
Well here's a small story that I want to share involving Datacron hunting with my SW.
So there is this balloon in the Dune Sea that circles around with around 30 min interval, which you need to jump up to to get to the datacron. Thing is, since it is on a contested zone, if the server happens to be populace and if you are unlucky, the spot where you must jump tends to gather players from both Imps and Reps alike. So I was naturally on my little hunt to get it, but the spot was crowded with 4 Rep players. So I retreated, typed in chat for reinforcements, and luck was on my side and people started coming.
However, we were a bit too late since the balloon had already passed and the Reps were on top of it. Well not to worry, we started chasing them across the whole Dune Sea for an appropriate location to take them by surprise. Since we had 3 SW in the party, we traveled to a big enough hill, waited for the balloon to cross it and then we all targeted a Rep that was--unfortunately for him--leaning on the very side of the balloon, and we all used Force Leap atop it and either pushed them down to be killed by the rest of our group or killed them right then and there. Then we simply waited for the balloon to arrive to the two Datacrons that were waiting in the destination, and walked away all smiling.
The end.
True. Still kinda annoying though. SOR was already pushing it with it only working due to a vague connection to KOTOR 2.
Not really, because again, Revan did not die. You simply threw Malgus into a reactor, it is simply assumed he was dead. Same that it was assumed that Revan was dead despite teleporting before the final strike was hit or Vitiate despite it being his voice but JK and Scourge not seeming to care despite something is wrong.
Untill it is confirmed, Malgus is not dead and no, confirmiation that canonically he was thrown down the shaft does not confirm anything, it in fact makes this even more open as they could have easily just said "yeah burning him down is also canonically" and then yeah there's your confirmation, but nope.
Each datacron grants more and more stats, and also functions as a shard, to create useful relics (which you don't stumble across quite often) -- Plus there's a bit of Star Wars lore in the package too and my sense of achievement is satisfied. I like a challenge, especially with the ones that are more challenging than the others.
I always thought the throwing Malgus down the reactor was an easter egg from Return of the Jedi.
Same with his Unlimited Power ability.

Well if you enjoy it then thats cool.
Just so you know, only your character's main stat and endurance matter. Getting strength on a Smuggler for example is useless. no matter how high it is.

I was aware of that? I mentioned several reasons for why I collect them. Achievements also grant cartel coins and collecting them all grants an achievement (did not mention that first) but I also mentioned the unlockable lore associated to them.
It's no less a waste than going after achievements or trophies in any other game.. only you actually get rewarded a bit in-game too.

My smuggler is stronger than your smuggler.

It was and we all know how that turned out, Dark Empire was spawned and Luke and Sidious became mega Sues. Bioware plz no Dark Empire 2.0 for Malgus.

Ah yes now I remember why Disney wiped the EU.
Well, if anything, Malgus' death did actually effect the Empire immensely by having aliens serve on higher official roles.

That will change in KoFE with all main stats become one, Bioware is also looking into Legacy wide datacrons so find all the stat one while you can, you'll need them.

Jump puzzles are my bane in video games. I generally suck at them, and SWTOR is no exception. SWTOR added an extra level of frustration for me in that I there is a slight delay between hitting the spacebar and the character actually jumping.

Sadly Dark Empire is undoubtedly one of the biggest reasons.

Yep. It seemed to shake things up a bit and force the Empire to shape up a bit.

Wait wut.

Too bad it killed off some actually good stuff. Oh well.

STrength, willpower, cunnning and aim are turning into one stat called mastery, so yes datacrons will be alot more useful.

That's. Your joking right?
That's. Your joking right?
He is not. That one is coming with the new expansion I believe.
That's. Your joking right?
I don't see the issue at all, it makes gearing and datacrons better. If I see a mod that gives me more power or surge I can't use it because of the main stat, I will be able to now. It will also entice people to get the datacrons where right now at best people will just get their main stat ones.
Retour en haut
