SWTOR Game Producer Keith Kanneg posted a small update to the Roadmap for the game to explain a bit more about the upcoming 25% Boost CXP Legacy Perk. He expects the price tag for purchasing the perk with both InGame credits and Cartel Coins will be a “worthwhile investment”, but also stated that the team is considering making this and some other Legacy perks to be valid account-wide. However, though, this is on their “growing list of ideas” and may not happen soon or at all.

To set expectations, this 25% Command Rank Perk is not going to be free. You don’t need to buy it, but since it is Legacy wide, it’ll be a one time purchase (credits or cartel coins) and I anticipate a worthwhile investment.
I do realize for those of us who play on multiple servers, we’ll need to buy it and transfer a toon (which is cheaper than the cost of the perk) – it’s how I personally handle keeping my Legacy current on all servers. There are a number of Perks and Achievements I’d like to see us make account wide, but we haven’t fully investigated the effort, so I’ll add that our growing list of ideas.
