(Ilum 2023 winner)


We are back with our fourth Best View in SWTOR contest! As with previous years, we’re looking forward to all the creative shots our players will be submitting. Starting today, players can submit screenshots taken anywhere on five select SWTOR locations. We’ll choose the screenshot that we feel captures the essence of that environment, so get creative! One winner will be chosen per location for a total of five winning submissions.

The winning submissions will then be turned into Stronghold decorations and distributed by the Anniversary event vendor in-game! The five eligible locations for this contest are:

  • Ziost
  • CZ-198
  • Section X
  • Minboosa District
  • The Black Hole

Some further thought regarding the Lethal Strike ability and Tanks, since this appears to be intended as a tank swap mechanic.
As far as I presently understand it, the debuff on dps and heal are not intended as part of the mechanic when played as intended by the devs, but as punishment in case of incorrect positioning etc.

In our only run with tank, the tank had already one debuff stack and was one-shot by the second Lethal Strike (546k), (no idea why the quality of the screenshot is so bad, sorry for that):

Thank you!

Hey everyone! 

Appreciate all the feedback that has been pouring in for the XR-53 (Story Mode). Below is a list of changes and adjustments that players can expect when we release a new build on PTS. These will be added to the OP as well. 
We’ve received a ton of feedback, so thank you all for spending some time with this early version of the boss. Here’s a rundown of the major issues we’ve seen and are already addressing:

  • Biggest one first! Several HP values weren’t calibrated correctly for Story Mode. This had a major impact on the fight, making combat unreasonably long and making adds take too long to defeat. In the next iteration, HP for the Propagator Core itself and many of its minions (Imperfect Constructs and Prey Seekers) have been reduced significantly.
  • The Propagator Core remained immobile for much longer than intended, spending too much time casting and making it difficult to reposition it. This made the fight fr...

Feast of Prosperity

Date: October 8 - November 5 (BEGINS AND ENDS AT 5:00AM PST/12:00PM GMT)
Requirement: Level 20+

Over the years, the Hutt Cartel’s reputation has taken a hit. The once powerful organization no longer instills respect and fear. To restore the Cartel’s influence, two up-and-coming Hutts, Gaboorga the Abundant and Duuba the Magnanimous, are throwing the most lavish “charitable banquet” in history for the galaxy’s underprivileged. And if the Cartel happens to advance their business interests during the Feast, everyone wins!

If Gaboorga and Duuba can cooperate, they could rocket the Cartel back into the upper echelons of the galactic underworld. But the Hutts’ conflicting priorities means they’re constantly undermining each other. Each week a new Story M...

Hi everyone!

Please answer the following questions about the new lair boss, the Propagator Core XR-53. Feel free to also leave overall general feedback. 

If you are streaming or recording your gameplay while on PTS, we would love to check out the VODs. Seeing players experience the content in real time is incredibly helpful, so feel free to post them here or DM them to me.

Additionally, players will be getting a very early look into 7.6 content at this stage. To set expectations, know that the content that will be released at this time is still a work in progress and not polished. As an example, you may see placeholder or unfinished assets and art.  

If you are reporting a bug, please clearly state that and if necessary, include steps that would allow us to reproduce said bug. 

Important notes for this current iteration of PTS: 

  • Players can either fly to Ilum and walk through the phase ...

Hey everyone,

Thanks!

Hey everyone, 

We're going to be bringing down the PTS shortly, so we can get ready to deploy the new build that contains the new lair boss (Story mode). I do not have an exact ETA of when the PTS will be brought back up, but I will update this thread when I have that info. 

Thanks!

Hey all, 

The Public Test Server is now open again! 

Thanks for your patience!

Hey everyone,

Slightly changing the purpose of this thread to not only host updates to the known issues list but also updates to PTS in general as well. We are preparing to release another iteration of the PTS, targeting tomorrow, October 24th. That means that the current PTS build has to be taken down. But don't worry! When the new iteration is back up and running, your Achievements and the progress you've made on your characters will remain.

What's happening right now?

Currently, PTS is down, but it will be back up later today. When we roll out the new iteration tomorrow, PTS will be taken down and brought back up with a new build that comes with bug fixes and Story Mode for the new lair boss!

If the timeline above changes, I'll update this thread.

Thanks!
