The four characters who have finished their main stories have been switched to crafting, which is an excellent way of keeping the inventories of the other characters tidy.
Both my smuggler and my Sith warrior are on Belsavis. Belsavis has not got any less itself, but I have got a lot better at reading the maps. Both stories are interesting, and, despite the way the game has been made easier (several updates ago), I have managed to die on both characters. Because the Esh-Kha are mean murder cows.
( Spoilers for which companion I am blaming )
My Jedi Knight has finished Balmorra and I hate my new companion. Doc is the latest in a long line of sucktacular male companions who are supposed to be the romance option for your female toon. Let's recap, dude you've just met, comes aboard, demands better quarters (okay, that one's obviously a joke but still) and is then horribly mean to your robot, who has been with you since before you were knighted and has a (mechanical) heart the size of a whale, and the other Jedi aboard, who is a woman who has seen some seriously bad things and come out on the side of good, and it's like, no dude, you do not get to do this.
Part of the problem is that with both him and Corso Riggs, they are trying to write Han Solo, missing that that is a hard character to pull off (and Harrison Ford has mutant charisma).
My Bounty Hunter has just finished Taris. I deliberately used Gault for the end of it in case ( I did decide to )
I would utterly recommend taking Gault as the companion for Balmorra because he is just so much fun. Oddly, being as he is utterly self-centred, take-the-money and run, he is both more fun, and closer to Han Solo than either of the two characters who are supposed to be like him.

While I mentioned that if you play the Taral V-Jedi Prisoner flashpoints, it becomes clear that Jedi Knight is *the* main Light side class, I don't think the distinction is as big over on the dark side, because you have this very interesting convo with Revan even if you're a show-me-the-money bounty hunter. Which my character is.
Now both my Jedi Knight and my Bounty Hunter move on to Quesh.
My replay characters are moving along nicely, and I (helped) defeat my first World Boss - The First on Dromund Kaas. People continue to be really lovely if you're willing to admit that you're a noob who's never done something before.
