SWTOR: Level Up Companion Skills on Your Smartphone

December 25, 2011April 3, 2012 Leveling-Guides.com

What good is your smartphone if you don’t level up in online games, right? For players of Star Wars: The Old Republic, leveling up skills on their companions can be an annoying task. It doesn’t take much effort, but it does take time, so being able to do it from literally anywhere is definitely a significant advantage. We’re always talking about how you can gain an advantage over other players by using strategy and leveling guides, but this is something entirely different, and it works perfectly. Best part: it’s completely…

Alacrity Stat – What Does It Do?

December 22, 2011April 26, 2015 Leveling-Guides.com

There’s been a ton of questions lately surrounding the Alacrity attribute in SWTOR: what exactly is alacrity, and what does it do. I’ve posted about SWTOR character stats before, in which I’ve mentioned the following: Alacrity Rating – Decreases activation time for all abilities. This does NOT affect the global cooldown, and only reduces the time on casted abilities. Basically, if you’re familiar with the Haste attribute from WoW, Alacrity is pretty much the same. From the latest testing by players, Alacrity does in fact appear to be reducing the…

SWTOR Jedi Consular Beginners Guide

December 14, 2011May 11, 2015 Leveling-Guides.com

You’ve chosen an exalted path—the Jedi Consular class. This is a great class to play in The Old Republic if you love Force powers, or if you are having a tough time deciding what role you want to play on a team—melee (or ‘tanking’), damage-dealing at range, or even some healing. This class can do all three, and you’ll get a chance to try the different skills out on Tython, your origin planet. Once you’ve loaded the game and chosen your server, the first thing you’ll see is your character…

SWTOR Bounty Hunter Beginners Guide

December 14, 2011May 11, 2015 Leveling-Guides.com

Bounty Hunters aren’t exactly known as one of the most played classes in Star Wars: The Old Republic. One reason being, they’re not as easy to play as some other classes are. That’s why having a newbies guide to help beginners figure out things in this game is helpful, and Torwars made sure to publish it. You can read the full Bounty Hunter newbies guide below.

WealthyHutts SWTOR Credits Guide

December 12, 2011April 26, 2015 Leveling-Guides.com

Note: since WealthyHutts is no longer available for download I recommend you take a look at my review of Killerguides (it’s even better anyway!). WealthyHutts is the name of the newest SWTOR guide specifically written on the topic of making credits. There are plenty of other strategy, leveling and mastery guides that include information on making credits as well, but this one doesn’t waste time on any of that and goes straight to the good stuff. As such, it includes the most detailed SWTOR credits making guide I’ve found to…

This guide will explain the functions of all of the different stats in TOR (and there are a lot.)

Which Crew Skills Are Most Profitable?

December 11, 2011May 12, 2015 Leveling-Guides.com

Pretty much every SWTOR player I talked to is very excited by crew skills. More than often professions are just a needless grind in other games, but BioWare seems to have struck gold here and actually managed to make them fun. Everyone’s going to be picking up their favorite crew skills, and while some are recommended for particular classes, a lot of times players simply want to pick up the most profitable ones. So, if you’re interested in making credits rather than equipping your character with the best equipment, or…
