Hi folks! 

June 2024 is upon us, and this marks not only the second quarter of the year, but also our one year anniversary with Broadsword Online Games. In the past year, we’ve pushed out five content updates and 11 patches, a new APAC server, and collaborated with Lucasfilm Games to bring Ahsoka and The Acolyte inspired items to the game. And there’s much more coming! First let’s take a look at what we’ve done since Q1 and then I can give you a glimpse into what’s coming up next.

Thank you Jackie!!!  What about having to get it to 50 affection on each toon though? Since this is a legacy-wide system, its only right that this should be a 1 time thing to do and then its max affection across your legacy.

Hey again. As B3-S1 is a companion, she functions the same as all other companions do. Her influence would still need to be raised to 50 per character.

Impacted players can expect a refund within the next couple days.

So after a roughly 3 month monotonous grind across your legacy, they still screw us and require 600 cc's to unlock it for our account? On top of paying a sub.  And you will also have to grind her to affection 50 I assume on each toon you want to use her on, which is an additional grind or cost (credits/gifts or buying a Compendium). What an absolute scam....

Hey! Wanted to chime in and relay that the 600 CCs for the unlock was not intended at all and has been updated to the cost of 10 CCs. Any players who did actually pay the 600 CC cost will be refunded.
