The server was taken down for maintenance today, and an update was applied. Be sure to close the game and run your launcher. The update notes are as follows:

Thus, it is my duty to report to you that he has taken it upon himself to throw the scariest festival of the year! Jabba has sent me, Aponte, to give you a quick preview of some of the great things he has planned for the big celebration.

• ChangedSeveral GCW rank perks have been adjusted to act as a specific reward for achieving and maintaining that rank rather than as an everlasting reward for attaining the rank in the past. With this change, the rank perks have also been adjusted such that they are not an essential feature that every player feels compelled to attain for viability. These perks should remain strong but rarer and less decisive to the overall GCW.

Current Senior Officers holding ranks for controlling regions on these planets will lose rank through the regular weekly decay processes.

Items and Equipment

• Removed Static Quests, that is, quests from the Pre-CU era of the game that do not use the modern Journal-based quest system, have been temporarily disabled because of their underlying bugs and inconsistencies that confuse new players. We will re-enable these quests once they have been ported to the new Journal-based quest system. Static Quest NPCs will now inform you that they are disabled when speaking to them in the meantime.

If you are logged in when the time of day passes, you must log out and log in again to receive the next day's reward. The Daily Login Reward consists of 1,000 to 5,000 credits and 1 Galactic Fortitude Token. You also have a 1% chance to receive a Rare Loot Chest of Rare or Exceptional value.
  • Earn Veteran Tokens (tiers I through IV) through two ways: By logging in consecutive days in a row (from 10 to 300), and by playing the game through your recorded play time in hours (24 to 1,000 hours) with counting effective as of this update.

    • Twin Cloud Car ITV - ITV that goes inside a structure and has three programmable slots to teleport you to those designated places. Can be used by anyone who can access the ITV object.
    • Neural Recon Network Terminal - When placed inside of a structure, can be used once every 48 hours to reset one instance lockout timer.
    • Homing Beacon - Allows you to land your ship from space at the structure where this beacon is located.

• Fixed The sound effect from Moof Mud is now played directionally from the source of the player using the buff.
• Fixed A bug that caused artifact to appear in the Ithorian version of the Galactic Moon Festival Jacket has been resolved.

Force Sensitive

Added Introducing the Force Sensitive:

• A new agent of disruption, The Patriots of Dathomir, have emerged in earnest to purge the planet of Dathomir of the dangerous Force Sensitives that have hidden themselves in a village surrounded by a mysterious wall of mist. At the behest of the Imperial Inquisition, they are gathering supporters in preparation for an attack and have spread propaganda throughout the galaxy. The Mysterious Figure, who guided characters on the earliest parts of their Force-discovery journey, has ceased contact, and players pursuing the Force have been left with nothing but the notion of needing to seek knowledge. Upon login, those ready for Phase III of Jedi Unlock will be granted a new quest; this begins your Voyage to the Village.
• Once players arrive at The Village, a familiar but refreshed experience of the old Jedi Unlock system, and complete quests inside the village to unlock Force Sensitive skill boxes that can be purchased by converting their experience points to train in Force Sensitive skill boxes. Four new abilities have been added to the master boxes of the Force Sensitive trees:
  • Use the Force (Combat Prowess): Guarantees your next attack will hit.
  • Trust the Force (Enhanced Reflexes): Guarantees the next attack against you will miss.
  • Feel the Force (Crafting Mastery): Gives a bonus to experimentation rolls for 1 minute.
  • Hear the Force (Heightened Senses): Detects any bounty hunters or enemy players in your vicinity.
• The Village will cycle through four different phases, changing once per week at the normal server reset time on Friday morning. During each phase, different quests can be completed (one per phase) to learn different boxes of the Force Sensitive trees. After completing six trees of your choosing, players will be granted the village exit quest.
• Players who complete this final quest will have the irreversible choice to stay a Force Sensitive or to pursue the path of the Jedi. Once a player becomes a Jedi, they will partner with a new trainer to partake in the Padawan Trials and thereafter will be able to master the Jedi skills of their choosing: Force Defense, Force Enhancement, Force Healing, Force Powers, and Lightsabers.
• Jedi are heavily CU-inspired but will have a variety of new abilities, items, and other ways to customize themselves. All cloaks have been made wearable on top of your robes with unique stats. Color crystals will also give special skill mods to your lightsaber according to their color. The instanced Ilum cave for named crystals will be added in a future update. Among the new abilities are:
  • Force Bubble (Healing tree): Creates a protective barrier around any target, preventing them from attacking or being attacked for a short period of time.
  • Battle Meditation (Master Force Healer): Greatly increases the combat effectiveness of all nearby group members.
• Force Sensitives are not a welcome group in this galaxy. Many threats await those who emerge with powers that the Empire has spent years propagandizing as dangerous. To better understand the story angles and dynamics of how Force Sensitives and Jedi will exist in the galaxy, see our Developer Diary: It's the Emperor's Galaxy and the Jedi are Just Living In It.
• Jedi wear both robes and cloaks. Most will wield a lightsaber and use the force. When doing so, they will accrue visibility if seen by others. Visibility is generated by observations of Jedi behaviors and the choice of players or NPCs to report you to the authorities. Be mindful that accrued visibility will result in higher and higher levels of adverse actions, including being placed on player bounty boards and summoning powerful enemies to eliminate any threat you pose. Robes, Cloaks, Lightsabers, and Visibility have been implemented as described in our Developer Diary: The Tools of the Jedi and The Consequences of Using Them.
• Once you elect to become a Jedi, you will have a set number of lives. For Jedi Padawans (the highest attainable position before FRS is introduced), Jedi will have four lives. When you die, such that you require cloning, you will lose one life. When you lose all available lives, you will become a Force Ghost for a set period. For Jedi Padawans, this period is 24 hours. Ghosts cannot be seen by normal players and cannot perform most normal actions. It is a cooling-off period for the Jedi. However, they still can have a role in helping the Jedi that are alive in combat, reducing their visibility, increasing the tuning range of power crystals, and more. Our Developer Diary, Life, Death, and the Jedi Ecosystem, describes some of these mechanics, but we'll also be releasing a specific diary to cover the Ghost system in more depth in the near future.
• Jedi will begin their training towards becoming a Jedi Padawan in The Ranch, a "safe haven" area on Dathomir that only Jedi are able to enter. The Ranch is a "truce" zone, and no PvP or Combat may take place inside. The Ranch contains several storylines and side quests for Jedi to learn about Jedi lore and how the Jedi mechanics work. Jedi can clone to The Ranch from anywhere in the galaxy and can use The Ranch's passageway system to safely move about the planet of Dathomir. The Ranch is a larger part of what is known as "The Path," a hidden network of safe houses and resources for Jedi to stay safe in the dangerous world hunting them. Other features will include most civic services that would be otherwise dangerous to access in public. The remaining two safe havens will be implemented in future updates as part of our expanding Jedi storyline.

Community

Player Activity Awards

• Added A new item, An Ancient Jedi Text, is now available for purchase from the Player Activity Awards Vendor with a Tier IV Veteran Token. This Ancient Jedi Text, when read, teaches the reader the history and ways of The Force, allowing them to experience an Inciting Incident immediately upon use. Alternatively, makes for a very expensive decor item to show off to others. Don't let the Empire find it, though.

Events

Ewok Festival of Love

• The Ewok Festival of Love has returned to the galaxy! Visit Tyrena, Kaadara, and the Southern Ewok Lake Village to join the celebration of love with the Ewok tribe.
• The festival includes its usual activities, including a chance to play cupid! Use any earned Chak Hearts to purchase several rewards that are exclusive to the Ewok Festival of Love, including new Heart Sunglasses and two new Wearable Brochettes that sit in a new clothing slot for pinned items.
• The Ewoks are also offering the traditional Festival of Love cuisine. Camby berries and chak juice are available, but because the Ewoks do not yet fully trust outsiders, festival-goers must pay a small price for these luscious treats. The credits are well-spent, however, as this exquisite fare offers beneficial effects.
• Allayloo ta nuv! This year, matchmaking may be done between NPCs of any gender.

Items and Equipment

• Changed The Lair Crystal now shares a cooldown with the Gorax Ear, Shard of Retaliation, Wampa Severed Arm, and other similar long-cooldown short-duration combat buffs.

Update 1.2.1​

---

The server was taken down for maintenance today, and an update was applied. Be sure to close the game and run your launcher. The update notes are as follows:

Combat

• Added All accuracy rolls now have an additional 10% chance to hit added.
• Added A "Glancing Blow" can now occur if you miss an attack computed to have an 80%+ chance to hit. Instead of missing, the attack will now deal drastically reduced damage but will still include any combat effects.
• ChangedSeveral changes have been made to rebalance damage, action, and mind across professions. You can read more about specifics in the Professions section below, but the theme of these changes is:
  • Single target damage has been increased.
  • AoE damage has been decreased.
  • Melee damage and accuracy have been further increased.
  • Professions linked with weapons that deal more damage will have higher action/mind costs.
  • Professions linked with weapons that deal less damage will have lower action/mind costs.
• Fixed Grenades now use the Thrown Weapon Accuracy skill mod to determine if they hit. Grenades (and any other delayed attacks) do not use the attacker's posture to determine bonus accuracy.
• Fixed Damage over Time (DoT) Resist stat modifiers now work consistently. They act as a defense roll against the attacker's accuracy. Combat Medic DoT accuracy is equivalent to their Medical Warfare Efficiency stat; for others, the DoT accuracy is generally 100.

Community

Player Cities

• Changed Player Cities can now place and maintain a Shuttleport at Level 3 (Note: The net result of this change with other city rank requirement changes is expected to be the loss of only one shuttle port in the galaxy based on citizen numbers as of this patch).
• Changed Player Structures placed outside of a Player City's limits (i.e., anywhere in unincorporated territory that is not part of a Player City) will now incur 3x maintenance costs.
• ChangedThe minimum citizen requirement per city level and the radius of a city zone have changed as follows:
  • Level 1: 16 citizens required; City radius: 250m
  • Level 2: 24 citizens required; City radius: 350m
  • Level 3: 32 citizens required; City radius: 500m
  • Level 4: 48 citizens required; City radius: 600m
  • Level 5: 64 citizens required; City radius: 800m
• ChangedThe weekly maintenance costs of Player Cities have changed as follows:
  • City Hall Cost: 50,000 Credits * City Rank (e.g., Rank 3 City Cost = 150,000)
  • Shuttle Port Cost: 100,000 Credits
  • Medical Center and Other Civic Structures: 25,000 Credits
  • Small Objects: 300 Credits
  • Small Gardens: 5,000 Credits
  • Large Gardens: 10,000 Credits

Content

• Added A new Celestial Discovery quest line is available for Master Shipwrights and Corellian Engineering Corporation Certified Miners at the Celestial Temple on Yavin IV. Completion of the quest line grants new limited-use schematics and a new badge.
• Changed Initial Legacy quests have been rebalanced, including all of the Mayor’s quests. This includes the difficulty of mobs, spawners associated with quests, and amount of mobs required to complete quests. More dialogue cues have also been added to make the next steps in the quest chain more intuitive.
• Fixed The Mutant Rancor Boss will now grant schematics 2-3x more often.
• Added Gendra now has a dialogue option pointing to The Collector quest series, which provides an introductory overview of the Collection System.
• Fixed Quests now give Entertainer and Crafting experience when appropriate instead of only Combat experience.

Crafting

• hanged All asteroids now have a quality of 1000, which affects schematics for Cargo Holds, POB Equipment, and some Chassis.
• Changed Socketing now utilizes Assembly attribute mod instead of Experimentation attribute mod and is guaranteed at 151 Assembly skill.

Force Sensitive

• Visibility:
  • Jedi gain visibility by using their abilities in front of others at a rate of
  • Players can report a Jedi using the “Report a Jedi” command that has been added for all players. Reports can be filed for 60 seconds after they witness a Jedi perform any Jedi-related action, and for an optional fee can add extra visibility (4x). Players can only report a specific Jedi once every five minutes. Reports can be filed simultaneously if witnessing multiple Jedi.
  • Note that factional affiliation is irrelevant to visibility. Jedi are unwanted in the galaxy; even those among your ranks may report you.
  • As visibility is gained, NPCs with friendly attitudes towards Jedi may warn you about your visibility or help you lower it. With further gains in visibility, you will face environmental consequences, including an inability to use public/civic services (no travel tickets, no bank terminals, no bank tipping, cannot use NPC vendors or junk dealers, and cannot repair vehicles). Reaching the highest levels of visibility will result in your player being placed on player bounty boards and difficult NPCs coming after you, including the Inquisitors and Darth Vader.
  • The amount of visibility generated by each action will increase exponentially based on the number of Jedi in the surrounding area.
  • Visibility is reduced by logging off, while you are in a Safe Haven, and when using Force Meditate from the Force Enhancement Tree. Visibility is reduced dramatically by killing a player Bounty Hunter currently charged with killing you.
  • When a Jedi performs an action causing visibility, a fly text +Visibility+ will appear above the creature that caused the Jedi to gain visibility. This includes players using the Report a Jedi command.
  • Visibility rates and other visibility mechanics not mentioned here are intended to be discovered by players. Additionally, note that visibility is new and a far-reaching mechanic, so we may continually tweak values as we monitor behaviors and effects. Please contact the Force Sensitive Senator if you have any feedback to share.
• Ghost:
  • When a Jedi dies and no longer has any lives, they become a Ghost. A buff placed on your player indicates the length of time you will be a ghost. This special buff timer will also tick down while you are offline.
  • Ghosts cannot enter combat, converse with NPCs, travel, or perform most other basic player functions.
  • Ghosts can only be seen by other Jedi.
  • Ghosts will have special roles to play in the Jedi experience in the future.
• Safe Havens:
  • A Safe Haven is a private sanctum for Jedi that only Jedi can enter. A barrier protects a Safe Haven, preventing any combat near its borders and blocking non-Jedi from entering.
  • The first Safe Haven, The Ranch, is located on Dathomir, and players will visit The Ranch as part of their unlock journey.
  • Jedi will always be presented with the option to clone at a Safe Haven when they die.
  • Jedi can travel to a Safe Haven for free by opening the radial menu on the Planetary Travel Ticket Purchasing Terminal as long as they do not have high visibility.
  • Safe Havens have cloning, insurance, banking, and bazaar terminals inside. At least one building inside functions as a hospital and cantina as well.
  • NPCs inside Safe Havens may now (or in the future) offer quests for you to complete or provide other services for Jedi, such as transportation. Stay tuned if any current NPCs don’t have anything to offer you yet.
• Lightsabers:
  • Lightsabers are crafted by the Jedi using a lightsaber crafting kit, and act as a container for crystals and pearls. Every lightsaber must have a color crystal, and may contain a number of Pearls or Power Crystals allowed by the "Generation" of Lightsaber schematic used. At this time, the highest available generation is 4, which can contain 4 pearls.
  • Components within a lightsaber (pearls, color crystals) will decay over time at the same rate, and will become disabled and stop contributing stats once at 0 condition.
  • Placing a color crystal inside of a lightsaber will give a unique skill mod based on its color. There are four different stats to discover.
• Changed Your character’s stored incident type for The Inciting Incident now rotates every 15 days instead of every 30 days.
• Changed Items used or worn by Jedi are now labeled contraband (this label will appear in red when examining items). Local authorities will search for contraband items, which can result in fines for non-Jedi or fines and visibility for Jedi. Contraband items cannot be sold on the Bazaar or Vendors, so players must establish other ways to exchange them but must do so cautiously, as exchanging these items may result in unwanted attention from authorities. Note, however, that items already listed on the Bazaar or Vendors will not be removed.
• For more information about Jedi mechanics, please see our Developer Diaries covering these features, The Tools of the Jedi And The Consequences and It's The Emperor's Galaxy And The Jedi Are Just Living In It; but note that where Patch Notes conflict with the Developer Diary, the Patch Notes supersede the diary and are considered authoritative.

Items and Equipment

• Fixed The Twin Pod Cloud Car ITV now properly charges 10,000 credits and a Mark V Fuel Cell or ITV Fuel Cell for use.
• Changed Player Datapads now have a limit of 20 Creatures and 20 Droids instead of 20 combined Creatures and Droids.

Hotfix 1.2.1.1​

---

The server was taken down for maintenance today, and an update was applied. Be sure to close the game and run your launcher. The update notes are as follows:

Combat

• Changed Increased the crafted damage bonus of Old Republic Lightsabers. This change is not retroactive. If you would like a refunded schematic for a previously crafted Lightsaber, please contact Community Support.
• FixedThe Force Regen stat on the following items has been fixed and increased to grant a noticeable amount; previously the following items would grant Force every 10 seconds (which often rounded down to 0/sec), and now they grant every 1 second:
  • Padawan Robes
  • Cloak of the Kursk
  • Cloak of the Storm Lord
  • Old Republic Jedi Knight Cloak
  • Old Republic Jedi Master Cloak
  • Old Republic Lightsabers
  • Jedi Knight Wristguards
• Fixed Fixed an issue where old Ancient Krayt Dragon Pearls would tune with lower damage than intended

• Added Added a total of 50 points of Armor Break Resistance to the Force Melee Defense branch of Force Defense. Each point reduces the effectiveness of any armor break debuff on you by 1%.

• Fixed Fixed an issue that could cause Jedi to lose multiple lives at once by closing the cloning UI
• Fixed Fixed Force Weaken sharing a debuff slot with snares
• Fixed Force Bubble can now be used while Stunned
• Visibility:
  • Unattackable NPCs who have a favorable attitude and environment towards the Jedi will now either alert you to your visibility level or even help you reduce it. You will find these NPCs all over the game (such as Commoners), and the circumstances that factor into their opinions of Jedi will change along with their environment. Things like factional control, your visibility level, attributes about themselves or your character, etc all weigh in. If you encounter a friendly NPC, you will see one of the following effects above their head for a short time:
    • A warning symbol indicates you have a high visibility rating
    • A hooded figure icon indicates they are willing to help you hide. Radial them and select "Accept shelter".
  • Several methods of reducing visibility have been added or adjusted:
    • Meditating no longer reduces visibility
    • Being at a Safe Haven (the Ranch): now -10 points of Visibility per minute
    • Meditating at your assigned Force Shrine from the Mending Mindfulness questline: -50 points of Visibility per minute
    • Watching an Entertainer who has the Force Veil stats from the Enhanced Senses tree: up to -5 points of Visibility per ten seconds
    • Defeating all bounty hunters who have initiated combat against you: -2000 visibility
    • Completing a terminal mission of any kind without using a Jedi ability: -200 visibility
    • Accepting shelter from a friendly NPC (see above): -100 visibility
  • Adjusted the requirements for Darth Vader to appear:
    • The Jedi must have been at 5000+ visibility for over an hour
    • The Jedi must have defeated an Inquisitor
• Ghost:
  • Several adjustments have been made to Jedi lives and Force Ghost to help give opposing players a better opportunity to take a Jedi out of a fight, while reducing the punishment that can occur for players who might have recently come back from being a ghost:
    • Jedi Padawans continue to start with 4 lives, but will lose all of their remaining lives when they are killed by another player. Deaths from PvE will continue to decrement 1 life per death.
    • When a player hits 0 lives and a Force Ghost, the timer that determines how long they are a Force Ghost now has a minimum of 2 hours and maximum of 24 hours (real-time, not logged-in time). The amount of time on the timer will depend on how long the player was actively been playing (capping at 24 play hours), or the number of days that have passed (capping at 7 days) since they were last a ghost or became a Jedi. We use whichever value is smaller and calculate an appropriate ghost timer from that value. For example, if a player had been alive for 3 days and had played for 20 hours during that time, their ghost timer would be around 11 hours.

Misc

• Fixed Fixed an issue where some items would get stuck in the buyback container, preventing players from selling more Junk Loot.

• Added Musicians with Instrument Use IV may now craft a new instrument, the Downey Box.
• Changed The PvP Damage Reduction Inspiration buff now grants up to 10% damage reduction (from 4%)

Jedi

• Added Added a new Breach Guard ability to the Force Ranged Defense branch of Force Defense tree. This ability gives you a short buff that reduces the chance of having your Jedi buffs removed by other players or NPCs. This replaces the "Force Breach Resistance" stat on that branch.
• Changed Saber Armor Break's effectiveness has been reduced to 40/60% (from 50/75%)
• Changed Added 50 Force Regen to the Force Powers tree, to offset the Regen lost from Cloaks. (10 Force Regen = 1 Force Regen Bonus)
• Changed Juyo form stacking debuff now reduces healing by 5% per tick (from 3%)
• Changed Soresu form procs now drain enemies for 175 action and 125 mind.
• Changed Reduced the penalty of using Battle Meditation to 75% of your regen, and removed the Action/Mind regen penalties.
• Changed Removed the Force casting cost of Battle Meditation
• Changed Increased the Force cost of Force Breach to 500 (from 300) and increased the cooldown to 15 seconds (from 5).
• Changed Reduced Force Aura effectiveness by -200 defense, and reduced the effectiveness of Force Armor/Shield by about -35%, and moved the removed stats to all Jedi Padawans as innate armor/defense. In other words, if those buffs are active, nothing changes, but if they are not active you still gain some of their benefit. This was done to make the effects of Breach less drastic, and also to make those two branches less "mandatory".
• Changed Reduced the effectiveness that Serenity (the Light Side Meditation buff) has on Force Aura by 125 (from 250).
• Fixed Total Heal may now be used while a heal cut is active (and is not affected by the heal cut).
• Fixed You will no longer receive visibility from NPCs that you kill and despawn
• Fixed Force Ghosts can no longer buff or heal other players
• Fixed NPCs will no longer talk negatively about nearby Jedi more than once a minute.
• Fixed Visibility enforcement NPCs will no longer drop their TEF against players after a couple minutes
• Fixed Jedi buffs that a player gives themselves will now sort at the beginning of the buff bar.

• Fixed Regain Consciousness has been fixed. A Jedi may use this ability to revive themselves after dying, and it has a short cooldown.
• Removed Regain Consciousness has been removed from the Force Enhancement tree.
• Removed Removed the dynamic Force Ghost timer feature. All Force Ghost timers will now last 18 hours.

Sniper

• Changed Sniper Shot's damage has been reduced by 0.5x weapon damage.

Hotfix 1.2.2.1​

---

The server was taken down for maintenance today, and an update was applied. Be sure to close the game and run your launcher. The update notes are as follows:

Items and Equipment

We fixed a couple different issues related to socketed items below. This mostly affected static wearables (like Jedi cloaks) and crafted weapons. If you had an item that was affected by these bugs, it has now had its attachment removed and socket reset, so be sure to check your gear.

• Fixed Patched an exploit that could allow a player to repeatedly socket a crafted weapon and increase its baked-in stat.
• Fixed Fixed an issue that could cause stats on an item from returning after it has been retrofitted.

Professions

Jedi

As the meta shifted to Force Defender after the last patch, players quickly found a build that would allow a Jedi to absorb about 99% of incoming damage through innate and Force armor. We are reducing that cap to about 90% with the below changes, and will continue to monitor the situation.

• Changed Reduced the amount of innate armor granted by boxes in the Force Defender tree by 20.
• Changed Reduced the effectiveness that Serenity (the Light Side Meditation buff) has on Force Armor by 40%.

Hotfix 1.2.2.2​

Events

• AddedThe Petranaki Tournament has begun!
  • For more information on the Tournament, check out this post.
  • All forms of PvP (bounties, guild wars, GCW, etc) are disabled for tournament participants except for the tournament itself.
  • There will not be a weekly update for anyone already at the rank of Major or higher in the GCW.
  • After this event, the GCW weekly reset will now take place on Sundays at the same time.

Professions

Jedi

Update 1.2.3 - Skyward Bound​

---

The server was taken down for maintenance today, and an update was applied. Be sure to close the game and run your launcher. The update notes are as follows:

Combat

• Changed The root debuff resistance timer now lasts 90 seconds (from 120).
• Changed Items that remove snares and/or roots will now reset snare and root resistance timers after wearing off. This affects the Anti-Mobility Dampening Device, Synaptic Stimulation Collar, and Ice Cream if it removes a movement debuff.

Community

Player Cities

• Changed Static decoration storyteller props placed within the boundaries of a player city no longer expire and can be used for decoration. This does not apply to NPC, effect, or other storyteller item types. There are no costs associated with this decor.
• Changed City Mayors and Militia can now remove storyteller props placed in a player city.
• ChangedWe recognize the city changes announced with Update 1.2.1 took some players by surprise, and we want to apologize for this approach to our change management. While we intentionally do not forecast all updates and changes, we’ll try to identify earlier opportunities to share our intentions with the community. We'll share a Developer Diary in July with more details, but are making the following changes immediately:
  • Shuttleports and City Decorations (including gardens) will no longer have a city maintenance cost.
  • All player cities already established during the 1.2.1 changes will receive a one-time 3 Million Credit payout to their treasury (pro-rated if the city was founded thereafter).
  • Any structures or decor that are already placed in place must be packed and replaced for the price change to take effect.

Content

Idiot's Array

• Added A new lounge for the most elite of Pilots, The Idiot’s Array, has opened up in Bela Vistal. Factional Aces, that is, players who have earned Ace Status in all three of any one faction’s squadrons, are eligible to enter.
• The Idiot’s Array offers new Tier 8+ challenges and mission content, and five new quest lines offer exciting, repeatable adventures and rewards.
• Visit Skyyy’rwok, the Club Bouncer, to determine if you qualify for entry, and Myrna the Space Queen, for rewards.
• Earn eight new badges, including a new Server First that’s up for grabs, as well as several new titles for your character.
• One reward available for completing content includes the Vigo Starship Player House, a special structure created by Rabiator in memory of the late Irish Darkshadow, a member of the SWG Source and SWG: Legends Development Team, without whose support of collaboration and the SWG community our server wouldn’t exist.
• Once a player reaches Ace of Aces status, meaning they have earned all nine ace badges, they will gain access to the following benefits:
  • Double Total Ship Limit in Datapad to 12
  • Double Total POB Ship Limit in Datapad to 4
  • Hangar Player House Structure
  • Special Vendor Access that accepts Space Battle Tokens
  • Token Reduction Cost from Kash Nunes on Parts and Schematics
  • Additional 1x Experience Multiplier for Pilot Experience

Mustafar

• ChangedMustafar Instances have been adjusted as follows:
  • Beetle Cavern: Explosion damage from Beetles has increased; Assist aggro has been increased such that the Foreman will assist Beetle Defenders when attacked.
  • Droid Army: Forward Commander and CWW8 droid damage has been increased.
  • Droid Factory I: CWW8 droid damage has been increased; Assist aggro has been increased for Battle Droids where they will assist Colonel OR-5; New ability sets have been added to Super Battle Droids and Battle Droids; Upon failing the initial code sequence, droids enemies will now spawn; Droids in the main entry room will no longer respawn once killed.
  • Droid Factory II: Devastator droid abilities and the Doombringer's damage have been increased.
  • Sher Kar: Sher Kar's damage has been increased.
• Added Mustafar Instances now have Difficulty Modes, which are aligned with our future difficulty mode plans for Heroics. Whoever enters the instance first will receive a popup to select the instance difficulty. For each mode, NPCs have adjustments to health, accuracy, damage, defense, KD immunity, and armor. Many of the mechanics for each instance are scaled with the mode. For example, Beetle explosion damage or Sher Kar healing from eating Karlings are scaled as well as the phase duration in Droid Army. Loot tables have also been adjusted for each instance mode described below. We are planning on publishing a balance patch in 2-3 weeks after players have had a chance to test these out, and make sure the balance feels right at all difficulties.
  • Womp Rat (Easy): In easy mode, mobs and mechanics are much more forgiving. Pick-up groups can go through the instance and familiarize themselves with the instance. High-quality or valuable loot does not drop from Womp Rat mode.
  • Bantha (Normal): This mode is the baseline and is similar to the live game. It challenges unprepared players and those without experience with the instances. Loot drops are as they already existed.
  • Rancor (Hard): This mode is more difficult and requires a well-organized team composition, technical expertise with the instance, highly geared players, and strategic coordination. Loot tables in this mode are modified such that low-value/junk loot will not drop, allowing the existing pool of available loot to only be filled by high-value items (i.e., the same number of items that drop, but all items are guaranteed to be high value).
  • Krayt Dragon (Nightmare): This mode is extremely difficult and requires players to creatively solve ways to defeat instances, utilize all tools at their disposal, build squads that are completely in sync, and make zero technical mistakes. It may add additional mechanics not seen in other modes. The loot tables in this mode are modified both to remove low-quality loot and offer new Legendary versions of items.
• Changed The Force Crystal from the Trials of Obi-Wan finale now grants Healing Potency instead of Healing Efficiency, which should allow healing to be more impactful during this fight.
• Changed The XP gain from Nym's Starship questline has been reduced.

Other

• Changed The Celestial Shipwright quest item, Hopper Shielding, has been moved to a different warzone on Talus.
• Changed Once a player has completed the Ridth DNA Collection, they will now receive a pointer quest informing them to return to Ridth.
• Changed Certain static quests, such as Rakir Banai, who awarded the Shellfish Harvesting Tool, have been temporarily turned back on until they can be upgraded by the development team.
• Changed The Darklighter Cache quest now properly re-grants the quest to the player if they fail the quest due to running out of time.
• Changed The Rroot - Captured! quest now re-grants the quest if the player fails the encounter.
• Changed Reduced the WoD Acolyte respawn timer to 10 minutes so players can complete the quest more easily.
• Changed Added more conversational pointers to the Mos Eisley Mayor to guide players to proper NPCs during side quests.

Events

Festival of Harmony

• AddedThe Festival of Harmony, a celebration of acceptance and the diversity of our galaxy, is taking place in June. A crackdown by the Empire has ruined plans for most festivities, but several contraband items are available for purchase with 100,000 credits on the Galactic Fortitude Vendor, including:
  • Harmony Sparklers for entertainers who want to share a more colorful performance.
  • The Harmony Necklace is for those wanting more color in their style.
  • Four exclusive paintings that are available this year only.

Galactic Civil War

• Fixed Players who log out or close their client while inside a factional base will no longer immediately disappear (e.g., "safe logout") and will instead persist in the world for up to five minutes.

Items and Equipment

• Added Two new schematics have been added to the Tailor profession: A neck-only wrapped scarf and a head-covering wrapped scarf.
• Changed Reverse Engineering Tools will now show their current tape setting and modifier bit in the attributes pane of the examine window based on the contents of the tool.
• Fixed Kinetic Repulsion Generators (from the Chu Gon Dar cube) now grant Melee Defense instead of Melee Damage Reduction.

Force Sensitive

• AddedJedi will now incur XP/Skill loss upon becoming a Force Ghost:
  • 500,000 Jedi General XP will be lost upon becoming a Force Ghost.
  • If the death that caused the Jedi to become a Force Ghost was caused by a Bounty Hunter or another Visibility-related consequence (like an Inquisitor), the XP lost is 1,000,000 instead of 500,000.
  • If the player has negative Jedi General XP after this loss, they will lose one of their highest-trained Jedi Discipline skills. The XP from that skill will be refunded to the player so that they once again have positive XP.
  • If a player has no Jedi Discipline skills to lose, they will remain in negative XP.
• Fixed Jedi can no longer use travel tickets gained through unintended means to work around visibility travel restrictions.

Trophies

• AddedJedi defeated in combat as part of the GCW or by a Bounty Hunter (but, for example, not a Duel) will now drop new trophies for all non-Jedi players involved in their defeat.
  • Five trophies are available: Broken Lightsaber, Cracked Holocron, Fractured Kyber Crystal, Torn Jedi Robes, and Charred Jedi Cloak.
  • These unique trophies will show information about who they were taken from, who killed them, and the time of death.
  • Trophies can be sold to junk dealers for between 50,000 to 100,000 credits, depending on the type.
  • Trophies can alternatively be added to a new Order 66 - Player Slayer collections, one for each type of trophy. Each collection completed will grant a permanent +2% Jedi Damage Reduction Skill Mod.
  • Completing any one collection will grant the badge Making the Galaxy Safe Again and the title Patriot of Dathomir.
  • Completing all of the collections will grant the badge No Match for a Good Blaster and the title Needs No Hokey Religions.

Visibility

• Changed Visibility gain now scales based on the number of friendly/aligned Jedi in your immediate vicinity rather than for all Jedi in the area. This change was made to realign the incentives in PvP to simply not stack too many Jedi on the same team, making the visibility gain something more in the player's control.
• Changed A NPC can now only report each player only once per 5 minutes (instead of 1 minute).
• Changed A player can now only report another player once every 15 minutes (instead of 5 minutes). This change was made to make visibility gain more manageable in situations where visibility was accruing so fast that players were simply ignoring the consequences.
• Changed Jedi are now allowed to use the Mustafar travel shuttle even if they have high visibility.
• Changed Visibility reduced from completing mission terminals will now be scaled down (from 200) if completed in less than four minutes, proportional to how long it took you.

Professions

Bounty Hunter

• Added Bounty Hunters that accept a bounty from a high-visibility player (above 4000, aka Inquisitor level) will receive a Breaching Charge that's tied to that bounty. The Bounty Hunter can use this Breaching Charge while at the doorstep of a private house that their target is inside of. Doing so will eject the targeted Jedi from the building after a short delay (and prevent them from logging off and disappearing inside the house during that delay). In the future, we intend to reimplement these as new crafted items from Droid Engineer.
• Changed High-level bounties, including player bounties, may now be taken at Investigation IV (4xxx) instead of Master Bounty Hunter.
• Changed Jedi players that are currently in a safe haven (like The Ranch) will no longer appear on Bounty Hunter terminals
• Changed Bounty Hunter terminals will now indicate if a player target is a Jedi.

Entertainer

• Fixed The Songwriter in the Village now properly grants the Ethereal song to those who have met the requirements

Weaponsmith

• Fixed Weapon subcomponents with SAC bonuses or Critical Hit bonuses (e.g., looted barrels) will now properly be baked into the weapon craft.

Space

• Added Ionic Pulse Weapon has been added to the reward loot crate pool
• Changed Increased PVE missile damage by 2x
• Changed Properties of all Tier 6+ NPC ships, excluding Nova Orion and Ace pilots, have been rebalanced. Scaling of top speed, yaw, pitch, and roll have been decreased such that top speeds are now ~130 instead of ~160. Damage on high-end turret ships such as the Aggressor is reduced as well as an increase in turret miss chance and spread angle. Missile accuracy has also decreased.
• Changed When leaving the sector during an uncompleted Duty Mission or deleting the mission, players will receive a message that the mission has failed as opposed to successfully completing.
• Fixed Corrected a bug with the spawning of Ace Imperial Pilot Turr Phennir.
• Fixed Emergency Shield Front and Back now have a cooldown modifier of 1.0 instead of 0.1
• Fixed Smuggler’s Alliance pilots can now take the Jabba Throne Room access quest anytime in their pilot profession.

User Interface

• Added UI Scaling is now available, allowing you to scale the user interface up as your screen resolution increases, ensuring you're able to adequately see all user interface elements in resolutions higher than 1080p, such as on 4K monitors. A new option to configure scaling is available in the SWG Client Setup application (Launcher > Launcher and Game Settings > Game Settings > Graphics > UI Scale). You may need to experiment with multiple scales to your preference. After adjusting your UI scale, you may need to run /ui reset in-game to reset the positions of all UI elements. Special thanks to the SWG: Legends team for sharing this work with our project.
• Added The Vertical ("Side") Toolbars can now be toggled through a new checkbox in the User Interface Options in-game. The Vertical Toolbars will be hidden by default.
• Changed The maximum waypoints that you can store in your Datapad has been increased from 100 to 250.
• Changed The login screen background will now rotate through a selection of seasonally thematic artwork.
• Fixed The Skills UI Window now properly displays the experience progress bar on each individual skill box in the skill tree when you are actively earning experience points towards that box.
• Fixed The Skills UI Window now properly displays an arrow “>>” next to professions you have purchased at least one skill in when browsing the “All Professions” tab.
• Fixed The Experience Monitor now properly populates with your available skills for advancing when you first log in.
• Fixed A bug that caused combat commands to appear "stuck" in the combat queue, requiring players to use /clear before they could perform certain actions, such as mounting a speeder, has been resolved. Please report any additional actions that appear to be caught with this behavior to the Development Team.
