Hello! 

Below are feedback questions that the team would like players to answer regarding the Basilisk Venture system. 

It is important to note and reiterate that it will take time for players to completely unlock B3-S1. For PTS specifically, we want to know feedback on the overall process of training the Basilisk Prototype like completing the Dailies to repair the droid and upgrade her abilities. To set expectations, what players will see on the PTS are the beginnings of the venture only.

Additionally, please ensure that the character you copy over has access to the Ruhnuk Dailies. Otherwise, you will not be able to complete the Basilisk Prototype intro mission. 

Once logged onto the PTS, you will arrive on Ruhnuk. A nearby terminal will allow you access to the intro mission. This terminal will only be available for PTS testing.   

Questions:

  • After playing through the introductory miss...

Hi folks! 

We’re coming up on the tail end of Q1 for 2024, and there’s quite a lot that’s happened since my anniversary post last year. We’re seeing new players and returning players jumping into SWTOR, so I wanted to provide a recap of what’s been happening in the game since Update 7.4 went out in December. 

Dev Streams

We kicked off the year with a dev stream, hosted on February 14th, that gave a glimpse into what content players could expect with Game Update 7.4.1. We’ll be doing the same with Game Update 7.5, which we expect to host sometime in April! 

PvP Season 5 “Pirate’s Plunder”

Hey Players!

We just talked about it on the 7.5 dev stream, but I wanted to give more detail on some changes you’ll see upcoming in PvP Season 6.

Summary:

  • PvP Seasons will be extended to 16 weeks long (from 12)
  • The maximum Season Level will be increased to 30 (from 25)
  • Maximum catchup level will increase to 20 (from 15)
    • Note: The catchup start date will remain unchanged
  • The points per level will increase to 300 (from 280). The total points required to complete the PvP Season will be increased to 9000 (from 7000).
  • New rewards will be added to the Season Track
    • A season themed Emote
    • Warzone Adrenals and Medpacs


Reviewing the way PvP Seasons are released and the cadence of seasons throughout a year, we are going to implement a few changes to PvP Seasons, making th...

During the Game Update 7.4.1 livestream, Narrative Director, Ashley Ruhl, and Lead Writer, Caitlin Sullivan Kelly, announced a new narrative feature that will be debuting in Game Update 7.4.1. 

Date Night Companion Missions are designed to give players personal time with their love interests. These weekly repeatable Alliance Alert missions feature fully-voiced, cinematic-only scenes that are unique to the partner’s interest, whether that's going out for drinks at the cantina, a thought-provoking game of Dejarik, or maybe even some sparring practice.

For the launch of Date Night in 7.4.1, we're starting with four companions that are available to all players. They include SIS agent Theron Shan, Sith Lord Lana Beniko, Zakuulan captain Koth Vortena, and former Eternal Emperor Arcann, each with their own unique scene that exemplifies th...

Hi everyone,

Appreciate your patience on this matter! We were looking to grant game time back to accounts that were impacted by the loading screen issue that didn’t require players reaching out to support.

As of today, all accounts that were subscribed while the bug was active have been granted 30 days of game time to their account. This will be reflected on their subscription status on their account page on swtor.com and they will also be receiving the automated subscription email as well.

Thank you for your patience, everyone!

EDIT: Was informed that the subscription rollouts are showing that they will take some time, so the grants are not immediate!

Hey Community!

I’m back after an excavation mission into our loot to check on some of the drops mentioned, and want to share my findings with you.

First let’s tackle the drops that will be fixed in a future patch!

These drops are currently broken and will be fixed in patch 7.5:

  • Copero Resort Rug from Traitor Among the Chiss

  • Manned Blaster Turret from Collicoid War Games

Hello! To prevent an issue where HK-55 could be unavailable after Arma Rasa, the alliance alert is no longer granted when a Chapter is active. If you finish the Chapters (or replay Chapter IX: The Alliance, as it is the fastest) the alert will show up, once you meet the requirements.

Hi Jackie,

Hey folks,

You brought up 3 different Daily Areas so let's talk about each of these as they are all slightly different:

  • Rishi - This change has not been made yet and will likely be made in 7.5.
  • Ziost - As noted above for this Daily Area is a bit more complicated and will likely remain as is where it requires character story progression to unlock (we'll take a look though).
  • Ossus - This is not fully changed to unlock based on the Achievement only. If you have the Achievement you will notice that some of the Daily Area will work but some of the NPCs and Missions will be unavailable right now. That is why we didn't put it in the patch notes, it will be fully available in 7.5.

Thanks all.

Hey there!

We wanted to make sure to get Kessan's Landing fixed since it was the new Daily Area and was missing those Conquest Objectives, but let me make a note to get a pass on Daily Areas that have these missing as well.
