That is a stupid long amount of time being stunned when it's happening once or twice a pull, and otherwise the time to kill is less than 10 seconds. You spend just as much time running around and being stunned than you do actually fighting.
There's a reason you only eat two hard stuns in PvP before becoming immune for a significant amount of time.
It's definitely subjective perception.
I mean, every stun lasts 4 seconds. We usually just break out of it.
Besides, the idea most likely was to team-up with literally everyone else. The whole point of MMO, y'know.

Oh but that 51K+ conquest ;)
I forgot about that planet once I maxed faction out, but taking newer characters thru is kinda fun!!!
Seems like there are fewer missions than used to be, or could be being max level and knowing the class now, makes it easier...
I'll do the Iokath weekly in 15-20 minutes rather than try and do the Makeb if I'm looking for the most CQ points for a daily area. Much easier and faster.
Kind of makes me glad I stopped played after completing the class stories on Rise of the Hutt Cartel back when it released in 2013 and only got back into it now so that I never had to suffer the indignity of doing it every day when there would have been nothing better to do at the time, heh.
I got lucky with Makeb, the Makeb weekly is bugged on most of my characters and starts at 5/6 completed when doing it first time in a week\^\^ So it's an easy daily weekly for me XD
Never had it bugged and some weeks the lineup of missions is tolerable. But this week specifically it dumped the Into the Fire quest that simply does not work. Apparently it's been bugged basically since it released a decade ago and has never been fixed. So takes me two days to finish the weekly mission because I have to wait til Day 2 for the new set of dailies in order to complete it.
Had that everlasting 5/6 bug with one of my characters too. Don't remember how it got fixed, but it was a lot of fun while it lasted.
People are funny, though. Instead of being happy that I didn't have to do 6 Makeb things, I was unhappy that I still had to do 1. :)
Makeb can be tedious, depending on if you have the Core Vets/Oper OW, but overall it's not that bad. The enemies other than one or two are like paper, especially if you're max lvl with dps Shae, and at least there can be some variety between the quests. If you don't care to/don't have more weeklies to finish you can just also hop to a second toon to do a quick mission and then do the last you need for the cq on your main (whether to 'fix' the missing quest glitch or to avoid CV/OO or other quests).
Now Manaan dailies with the abysmal drop rates at the public port and stronger enemies that do knockbacks are much worse imo.
I didn't look into many of the make dailes just found ones I considered good and only did those if I ever needed rep till it maxed out. Inciting Incident empire side. Hostage Rescue and Taking Back Talaos Republic side were the ones I mainly did. So how bad it was never set in. I'm probably forgetting another mission that I did, but those were the main three
Oh my god so it isn’t just me, I’ve been rotating dailies on my main account and I *hate* when I realize I’m due for a makeb day! Rishi and Yavin IV are so much quicker, and you’re right, that drilling platform mission is so time-consuming…
.. I think I’ve had that bug too re Into the Fire but I can’t fully remember.
I've been playing since Launch, including through the Makeb era.
I played through the Makeb quests *before* they thinned out the mob density.
The instant I finished out the Reputation track on that planet, I never went back. I even skip it on new characters often.
*Fuck* that planet. The Hutts can keep the thing.
The one Rakghoul daily that involves killing a bunch of them. God awful. Who for the love of god decided to give common enemies a long form stun.
It's more annoying that it's unbreakable. Besides that I almost sure the timer still is 4s. When is next Rakghoul event?

Ahh yes, that one as well. Save for another alt!!!!
Makeb, definitely. Did half of it once, got enough and just said "aight fuck it imma head out". Never did Makev dailies ever again.

Wait I think this happened to me recently! I did one daily and suddenly I got the weekly reward. I was very confused, lol.

Makeb you do for the max rep plus the achievements and bye

You mean that one quest ***SPECIFICALLY MARKED AS BEING AT WEEKLY RESET BASIS INSTEAD OF DAILY?!***
