Rakghoul Plague has infested the peaceful planet of Alderaan and I’ve participated in the event for the first time when the event went live yesterday. The last time the Rakghoul event was in game I was playing something else and didn’t participate. However, I jumped in with both feet on two Republic characters yesterday.
My consular, Laughlynn, took the opportunity to further explore Alderaan and pick up some bonus series quests. I particularly love the taxis on Alderaan that are non-mechanical. There is just something so peaceful and majestic about taking a taxi on Alderaan. I’m a little biased admittedly since Alderaan is my favorite planet to date.
First off, the Rakghoul tunnels on Alderaan are beautiful. I spent a lot of time just enjoying the beauty of the environment yesterday while exterminating the affected victims. There is a definite challenge to the event when you aren’t at maximum level and at the low end of the level range for the planet. However, I love the challenge and had fun yesterday.
Laughlynn did great even against the level 55 creatures when others were around. They were hard to touch at level 39 but so long as she wasn’t fighting alone they were fun and a challenge. Now those elite level 55 creatures and bosses were impossible to touch, every once in a while I’d manage to get a hit one of the but it was rare. Still it was a blast!
Abi’gail had a much more difficult time at level 28. The tunnels and the infected were definitely a challenge for Abi’gail. More often than not her light sabers were nothing more than flashing purple sticks of ineptitude as they failed to land a hit. Against the level 25 Rakghouls she was successful but those level 34 plus creatures were an exercise in misses. But you know what? I didn’t care, the tunnels were beautiful and I still managed to complete event quests and gain reputation while having fun.
This morning I logged on to my level 15 bounty hunter, Steph’ana, who has been stranded on the Imperial Fleet for a year now. However, she is getting play time these days and she contracted the plague while on fleet. Steph’ana is now on Balmorra and setting out on the great Hunt. I got this great picture of the effects of the plague before she purchased a vaccine from the medical droid in Sobrick.
