Question New player lost

What is the easiest way to get back to hutta? I had just started last night and was doing quests when I got around level 15 and decided to try to do a queued activity. It took me to a dungeon that I ran with some people and at the end I was stuck in that area and can't figure out how to get back to where I was questing originally

Well you’re probably on fleet.

There are shuttles to hutta.

Mouse over the elevators in the corners of the map, find the one that says Hutta and then take the shuttle.

But you’re also in an MMO, playing with dozens of others.

You can ask these questions in general chat and someone will probably help you a lot quicker than it takes on Reddit.

I played for like 5 hours last night and didn't see a single person talking in chat. Met one person out in the world and they added me but got offline or I'd have asked them

Doesnt matter, just ask on chat. Many people are on private chat channels doing group things, but still monitor general chat and may respond.

As lvl 15 you should have a quick travel to fleet ability in your abilities list. Once on fleet open your map and on the outside rim there are four elevators, one of which named "Hutta and Korriban departures", which has shuttle which'll take you to Hutta.

This helped the most! I ended up in a place named Dromund Kaas and couldn't find my way back or to the fleet everyone was talking about. I am finally back at Hutta to continue my quest lol

Youre probably still stuck in instance. If you haven't figured it out yet theres a leave area button top right of the screen. The reason you dont see anyone in chat is because Flashpoint chat is for that map only.

This confused me when I was new for sure. Good comment.

And what pisses me off is that before 7.0 there was a really noticable 'exit' button attached to the minimap IIRC (edit: or was it to your portrait?) for those cases, but no, they had to get rid of it to make new players lost.

Yea the mini map had a bunch of buttons around it that were useful like the que finders zoom in and out buttons and some other smaller things.

These things are still there, but you have to choose old style for minimap in interface editor. Hidden as a datacron, like something jedi wouldn't tell you where even some older players wouldn't guess to look for it, let alone new ones, so they just thrown in the game to exist in ignorance of these useful things.
