Patch 1.2 Legacy Preview

PCGamer.com gives us a preivew of what to expect with the Legacy system in patch 1.2:

    *Completing Act Two (around level 40) on any class will unlock a class-specific emote that corresponds with your root class.

    *Completing Act Three (at max-level) as an Empire class unlocks the following abilities for everyone in your legacy: Flamethrower (Bounty Hunter), Lightning Storm (Sith Inquisitor), Force Choke (Sith Warrior), Orbital Strike (Imperial Agent). For Republic classes: Project (Jedi Consular), Force Sweep (Jedi Knight), Sticky Grenade (Republic Trooper), Dirty Kick (Smuggler). I

    *Maxing out affection with all five companion types will net each of your characters a total of +50 boost to their Presence stat, a 5-minute reduction on the cooldown for the super-powerful Heroic Moment ability, and a 1-minute addition to the duration of the buff that Heroic Moment gives you.

    *To purchase a race, which unlocks it for all class types without having to level a character of that race to 50 first, will cost you 1.5 million credits for each race. In addition, you must be legacy level 8 to buy it.

    * All the unlocks for increasing your social rank are emotes. The best emote is /doublelasers (costs 150k and requires level 15 Legacy). The weirdest is /weld (costs 50k and requires level 12 Legacy).


Additional perks we’ve found include Spring being moved to level 1, faster sprint speeds with a buff called Jetpacks and Rocket Boots. You will also be able to purchase training dummies, mailboxes, repair droids and GTNs for your ship. Crew skills will get boosted by purchasing cores for your ship. Also, NPCs will drop legacy tokens that you can use to purchase low level gear to what we believe will be SWTOR’s version of WOW’s heirlooms.
Keep reading for a list of information gleaned from the internet.
