Spacebot is very important to level up your char from Level 16 to 50. This is actually my fastest leveling path: 1) BuddyWing Bots Level 1-10 -> 1/2 Day 2) PvP till Level 16 -> 1 Day 3) Do only Class Quests to get Spaceship, then Space Mission all the way to 50 -> 1 to 2 weeks depending on gear 4) Equip with cheapest Level 50 gear -> 5) Continue with Class Quests to Unlock Legacy -> 6) Spam Gifts + Continue with Class Quests to reach Act 3 to Unlock all Companion Quests (No need to do Corelia) -> 7) Repeat with 7 different race/class combination to unlock all legacy bonuses. Just my 2 cents: Questing is actually a time-sink. The exp/hr isn't worth it. Even PvP lose matches grant more exp/hr than questing. Even the Light/Dark Points and Companion Affection Points can be bought off cheaply with credits.
would be nice, but i still prefer doing questing/pvping, so you have WZ commendations to get gear when you hit 50
Adding on to the above, you can actually send all your companions off to farm crew skills since you don't need them as cannon-fodder in space missions.
