We found some additional issues tonight during testing and will be delaying until Thursday (10/24/2019). We want to ensure we've found all edge cases and I will update you tomorrow when we have more information to share.

Do I keep my 5* I unlocked?

When is it coming back as some of my guildmates didn't get a chance to do it but we're eligible?

We're trying to bring it back as quickly as we can. We need to make some changes to the event to make sure this situation doesn't happen again. We'll keep everyone posted.

So I did Dark side Malak and got 75 shards. What is gonna happen? They’re gonna remove those 75 shards?

If it was your first time receiving those shards from the Dark Side tier, then no. If it was your second time receiving those shards from the Dark Side tier, then yes.

Monitoring it right now and seeing if there's an uptick in the issue around it.

Edit: "a measurable uptick in the issue around it." Another team is investigating, when we know something we'll post something.

Hello Holotable Heroes,

We’re letting you know we need to delay the Darth Malak rollback that we originally had planned for today. The rollback is a complicated procedure and we need more time for testing. We’re angling to roll it out tomorrow (10/23/2019) around 10:30 AM PST, but we’ll keep you updated if things change.

We also wanted to let you know that we’ve reconsidered our position regarding the Darth Malak make good. We recognize that there are a number of players that had no idea that the event was giving out duplicate shards based on the messaging live in the game. We can’t preserve the additional shards/promotions as we ... Read more

Hi @EA_MindTricks -- I appreciate that you responded here and apparently released a fix. But why did none of EA or CG respond to any of the numerous bug reports we put in through the normal channels? ( https://answers.ea.com/t5/Technical-Issues/Unable-to-sim-Heroic-Rancor-raid/m-p/8159647#M6188 , https://answers.ea.com/t5/Technical-Issues/Unable-to-Sim-Rancor-Raid/m-p/8124742#M6045 ) Why did you respond to this one instead? Should we be posting bug reports in Reddit?

Btw, it appears that the server update you rolled out yesterday has fixed the sim functionality for our guild, for the first time ever, the count of eligible players has gone up and now reflects reality, allowing us to sim the raid.

Thanks for confirming the issue is resolved now! As for your other question, looks like those posts are in Technical Issues part of Answers HQ and that's why it was missed. Myself and EA_HighCommand are only monitoring Reddit and the Bugs and Issues section of Answers HQ (https://answers.ea.com/t5/Bug-Reports/bd-p/star-wars-galaxy-of-heroes-bug-report-en). In that section we responded to all the related threads and while we would love to be able to cover all channels where bug reports are posted, we can't. We do keep an eye out on several other channels (Discord/Facebook) for any new issues, but thus far, everything posted on the other channels ...

Hello Holotable Heroes,

Today, we had a bug occur where players that previously completed the Starforge Showdown event were able to receive the rewards of the event a second time. This was an unintended consequence of a recent change to the store system. Unfortunately, we cannot allow these shards to remain in system without undercutting GET and those who previously earned Malak without the bug.

What we’re going to do to correct our mistake is roll back any character star promotions and changes to the state Darth Malak was at 10/18/2019 12:01 AM PDT, for any players that received the extra shards. Any gear, relics, etc that was applied to Darth Malak will be returned to their inventory. We will be rolling back the affected Darth Malaks on 10/22/2019. On 10/21/2019 we will be removing Darth Malak from GET store to help get an accurate snapshot of the state of Darth Malaks with the extra shards. Darth Malak will return to the GET store on 10/22/2019.

Due to the issue above, we will be doing a hotfix shortly to remove Starforge Showdown from being an active event. Once we have resolved the issue we will reschedule the event. We apologize for the inconvenience.

Hi folks,

We are aware of the issue where Darth Malak's event, Starforge Showdow, is still giving out shards when completing the event a second time. Do not use this bug in the meantime. We will be removing these extra shards from accounts and the event with a hotfix. We will let you know when this will occur as soon as possible.

Comment

Try reinstalling the game, it should fix the issue. If you still have the same problem after reinstall, please contact our customer support team on help.ea.com for further troubleshooting.
