Hi all,

We have flagged this with the studio now.

We're working through it right now. Post about it soon.

I just came back after over a year hiatus and it's funny because I only have rebels. It does seem CLS, Han, R2, C3po, and Chewie is a somewhat decent team, though I don't have chewie or c3po yet because they didn't exist when I left.

When I read this thread topic I did a double take for the same reason ("Galaxy of Rebels").

Should be ok now. Thanks for hanging tight with us.

Welcome to the first edition (in quite some time) of the State of the Galaxy. Previously we used the State of the Galaxy as a catch all, update on the game, which eventually morphed into what is now “the Road Ahead”. Over time we realized that the Road Ahead was acting like a single monolith of information and that we didn’t have enough touch points with the community where we acknowledged things that were going well (and not so well) in the game. We want to use the State of the Galaxy as the once-a-month check-in with the players talking about our progress on building new features, what may be coming out that month, and discuss some tough topics that are currently affecting the game.

Our hope is that the Road Ahead acts as our broad intent about upcoming major changes to the game, the State of the Galaxy is our monthly check in, and the monthly Q&A is a way that we can talk about things in the Road Ahead and the State of the Galaxy with you in addition to our other normal p...

Hi Holotable Heroes,

It’s time again for another Road Ahead. As CG_Erik, mentioned last week I’ll be taking over writing the Road Ahead posts. If you haven’t seen my name pop-up before, I’m the Live Producer. The Live Operations team is responsible for the day-to-day operations of the game. We introduce new characters, ships, and events. I’m really excited to talk about what’s coming next.


With that said, let’s step into the Cantina and see what the future has in store for the next few months.

It’s been a few weeks since Separatist Might landed and we’ve already seen guilds do some incredible things. Team Instinct and Mighty Chlοrians were the first guilds to get to at least 30 stars! Congratulations to both Team Instinct and Mighty Chlorians and good luck on the march to 33 stars! Also, about 80 players have beaten th... Read more

I'm not even sure what we'd do with the stolen gp. In all seriousness, we are digging into it and we think we've got a lead on it. We'll keep everyone updated.

Something isn't right. We're aware and looking into it.

Hi Holotable Heroes,

We wanted to reach out and give you an update on how platoons will work in the Geonosis Territory Battle. Our plan for platoons is to make them static in all phases. However, given that this represents the most end game of end game content and that the platoon abilities are key to victory at this time, we wanted to make the strategic trade off between using a character in a platoon and using the character in combat a meaningful decision. This results in many desirable characters being included in platoons (Darth Malak, Darth Revan, General Grievous, etc). Additionally, the number of each of these required will increase as the phase increases. Our goal is to alleviate some of the intraguild planning, while also challenging players’ rosters.

As a related side note, the minimum character/ship star requirements for each phase is as follows:
  • Phase 1 = 6*
  • Phase 2 = 6*
  • Phase 3 = 7*
  • Phase 4 = 7*

They’re a high gear and zeta cost, end game team. I’m happy to see them be monsters. Best of all, no new bottleneck gear, more than you can say for the three most recent team. A little sad that to me this puts them clearly above JKR, but hey, I went DR first 😃. Time to start farming the seps. Seems like with the magna rework you guys are trying to trifurcate the seps into droid army, bugs, and leaders types( nute, wat,douku)?

We're trying to make sure that there's some actual framework around the various Separatists "sub-types" than there was before, but you're not wrong.

It's always weird the double speak.

Satisifed by GG, then make two changes.

Hopefully this juices up the General.

It's not so much double speak as it is an outgrowth of that we consider characters in a lot of different lights/contexts. Their stats vs their abilities vs their thematics vs how they perform in concert with other characters, etc. When we said "satisfied," what we mean is that G13 did the work with Grievous that we wanted it to do - he got healthier and did a lot more damage. However, the Separatist Droids as a team weren't exactly where we wanted them (we had grand ambitions initially that just improving Grievous via gear would be sufficient). To get them where we wanted we also needed to do a little ability work to Grievous as well.

Hi Holotable Heroes,

When we released the General Grievous rework back in February there was a lot of feedback that the rework didn’t make him powerful enough, or at least as powerful as some people expected.

As you can probably imagine, although we weren’t able to talk about it at the time, we knew G13 was coming in the near-future and we wanted to ensure Grievous (and the Separatist Droids) didn’t become an utterly overwhelming force when G13 came into the game. Knowing at that time that we wanted to double-down on health being his scaling stat, we were conservative with the power we gave him at that time in anticipation of the power gains he’d get with the introduction of G13.

During our play testing leading up to the release of G13, we discovered that even after applying G13, we found that although we were satisfied with where General Grievous was landing, there was still some room to grow the Separatist Droid faction based on our intended targets.

Well that’s weird. Is it still doing it after restarting? If so let me know.
