Simple question: which difficulty setting do you play on? Here is a quick poll:

The 4 VAs that I play to grind my daily Dilithium use the Standard setting - as I want that to go as quick as possible. For characters I'm actually leveling I use Elite.

Mostly advanced except in the early levels, doing advanced at the beginning gets extremely boring because it takes forever to kill something with so little weapons.

Elite, especially on ground combat which is my favorite type. The only time I dial it down is for the Defense Contract daily. I've had problems losing the deuterium tanks on elite.

Standard for leveling and some dil farming, when I'm not too lazy to do so. Elite all the way for the fun.

Standard for me. I've never touched the difficulty setting in the game. I like it where it's at.

I've never messed with the difficulty settings at all. I played STFs on normal for the first couple of weeks. Since then I only play STFs on Elite, unless I'm trying to help someone get the normal accolade.
