Current credit earning status

Since I promised my self to write something on this blog everyday, I believe I couldn't miss today's post aswell. Finally, got my new graphics's card and I am able to play on my new computer properly. Although the graphics are extremely nice, I still miss the cartoon like environment of WoW.. like I was playing just through a comic book. The spells start and get a meaning into the fight, I still got couple as a bounty hunter that I dont really use yet and I like the fact, that the game forces you to team up at least with one person to do a heroic quest every so and then and gives you a pretty damn good reward to choose from even with the nice stockpile of credits!

Now, I need to confess.. I am feeling lost without the knowledge I had on the previous games I was playing. This thing, upsets me a bit, and when it comes to credits and the usual questions "how that guy earns so many credits?", which this question is going to pop out of your head eventually, you wont have an answer and the feeling of lack of knowledge will flood your thoughts and decimate your wallet! Although, I 've done my research, on various forums and sites and after much reading, data mining and time, that's what I learnt. NOTHING. Why so you are going to ask. Gathering up information is nice, but when you don't apply this to reality how can you say that "this works". The games hasn't been out for a week and there are credit-guides out there selling! Currently, the trade chat at the time being, has no traffic. The Auction House(and in my taste a bit hard to work with), has very few items to work with. The need of the players for materials, is minimal, since everyone wants to level up. None yet has hit the roof to make the question: "And now what?"

Nevertheless, In all the games I 've played, being wealthy, was always giving me a boost. From making my main ultra powerful with slightest effort, to levelling my alts with great gear. That's the way it works in most of the games, even in SWTOR. Despite the fact I am a bit careful on my expenses, today I started testing out crew skills and gathering skills. Killing and looting with my gathering skills, sending my companion(slave to me) to quests for a small fee in return for items and furthermore levelling up one gathering skill I chose. I wont name them out, cause it doesn't really matter at this time of the game. No one knows whats the best or easiest or the most profitable skill in the game. Make sure to have fun and just for the sake of science, go to the Auction House, try to get a bit familiar with it, and why not, post any of the items you are going to vendor(not talking about the gray ones) in some decent prices, just to check out, if the AH is appealing for the people around you. And who knows? You might get lucky and earn some credits early in the game.
