    Hey Dulfy,

    Was just wondering if you by any chance had some info regarding the materials for Underworld gear crafting?

    Appreciate your insane work keeping us all up to date.

    • 1 Mass Manipulation Generator, 5 Exotic Element Equalizer, 5 Vials of Stabilized Isotope-5, 4 Mythra and 4 Turadium for mods/enhancements.

      • Lucas

        Thanks for the info. Sadly I thought it was the armor pieces themselves that were craftable. Like some of the color combos on the PvE gear instead of the PvP… Oh well.

  • jasonthelamb

    Stupid yet I feel it is somewhat needed (because it is bioware)
    Kell Dragon still has set bonuses, righty-o?

  • Xaldorna

    Do Operator and Kephess really both drop boots, or is that a typo? Cause that’s really dumb, but I wouldn’t put it past them.

    • Oops that is a typo on my part.

  • Luis Oliveira

    Awesome guide, Dulfy. Thank you.

  • zorno

    can you buy shadowed items with ultimate coms?

  • Ascari, Shadow Tank, Harbinger

    Heya Missy,

    Just wondering if there is any info on whether or not Assassin/Shadow Tanks will be getting some sort of fox in the next patch? From what i could read from the PTS forums on SWTOR there were alot of complaints saying Assassin/Shadow Tanks can barely handle the first boss of TFB NiM, Let alone the rest of them just down to the sheer spikyness of the tank.

    Thanks again, keep up all the good work <3

    • Sorry no idea, wait for patch notes on Monday I guess 🙂

  • Evonella

    Hey Dulfy! In Nightmare TFB do the buttons on the walls between Ciphas, Heirad, Kel’sara and Operator IX (It’s like the channelling buttons in the Operator fight ) do anything special because it has bugged me ever since I saw them as it’s a perfect place to hide something >.<

    • Not sure, didn’t really test them heh

  • Gobien

    Are shadowed pieces available for purchase with comms or are they operation drops only?

    • Drops only as far as I am aware.

  • LordElfa

    Are mods and enhancements the only RE-able things or are armor mods, hilts and barrels also RE-able?

  • Vladimír Odznak Gregor

    What is the title from time run? Anybody knows?

    • From Beyond

      • Vladimír Odznak Gregor

        AW, hoped for Undying

  • iceberg265

    Hey Dulfy are you doing NiM SnV strats?

    • We only got 2 bosses down on the PTS before they closed it 🙁 But yes I will be, it just won’t be ready before patch lands I guess.

      • iceberg265

        Great thanks!

  • Koolcat

    What is the recommended gear?

    • Telanis

      The level below Kell Dragon — Underworld (level 72, rating 168)
