Beginner's Guide to Star Wars Galaxies
(assuming you've completed the character creation) you will start in a city known as Mos Eisley. You should explore and familiarize yourself because you will be spending the next few hours or days there. If you should decide to just run out and start killing here's a small note to memorize. Grey mobs are not worth killing, green is easy, blue is decent, yellow is ideal, red is hard, purple is almost impossible to kill alone.Ideally you should pick up some missions. There are small terminals in which you can get the missions. You can choose between destroy or delivery missions. Characters with good combat skills should choose destroy missions while those not focused in combat should choose delivery. Keep in mind, the larget the reward of the mission the more difficult it may be. Once you've accepted a mission a waypoint will guide you on where to go.
There are also imperial missiona and rebel alliance missions. They are shaped a bit differently and have blue screens instead of orange like the standard missions. If you decide to complete missions for imperial you will gain faction with them but lose faction with the rebel alliance. Keep note of which side you plan on joining later. Along with the 2 factioning sides, tehre are also bounty hunter missions, entertainer missions and artisan missions as well.
There are also tasks which you can take upon that will help you gain credits, items or experience. You can get the tasks from special designated NPCs within each city. There are many places that you may enter in Star Wars Galaxies with out doing the task. Missions and tasks are great ways to get you started in the game if you prefer not to just run out and start killing random mobs.
Once you have earned enough credits and experience you may choose to travel the galaxy. You do so by heading to the space transport and buying a ticket at the terminal. If you do not see the city that you wish to travel to then you will need to travel to another planet and go from there. It can take up to 10 minutes before the shuttle lands to pick you up. Keep note that if you are special forces in your faction other players would take advantage of new arrivals in cities. Keep your credits safe in a bank. Enjoy your trip and have a safe flight.
