Hello everyone,

Wanted to let players know that this final phase of PTS will be coming down Monday, November 22, at approximately 10am CT. Should that change, I will update this thread.

Will the achievements currently categorized under "Spoils of War", the Equipment Sets and Tactical Items also be moved to the Feats of Strength category or will they still be achievable in 7.0?

• The Spoils of War equipment sets will no longer drop from content nor be able to be directly purchased from a vendor. As a result, the achievements will be moved to the Feats of Strength category. The sets will still be obtainable via Kai Zykken�s Random Unique Items box.

Max new gear ratings (7.0 gear upgrade caps):

• 326: This can be obtained by doing anything in game (Conquests).
• 322: Story Mode Legacy Operations
• 326: Veteran Mode Legacy Operations
• 330: Master Mode Legacy Operations

Hi everyone,

This is a follow up post to the OP to answer some of the questions that we've based off of the initial information that was shared. Please see below:

Clarification on gear ratings
What is the max gear level?

• In the 7.0 release, players can upgrade up to level 330 via Legacy Master Mode Operations. The max obtainable gear level for all modes will rise over time throughout the expansion.

Max new gear ratings (7.0 gear upgrade caps):

• 326: This can be obtained by doing anything in game (Conquests).
• 322: Story Mode Legacy Operations
• 326: Veteran Mode Legacy Operations
• 330: Master Mode Legacy Operations

In the 7.0 release, it is only possible to upgrade to level 330 via Master Mode Operations. Over time, all other game modes will be able to upgrade to level 330 as the ceiling is raised, so essentially, gear progression is built into all modes.

Hi everyone,

Wanted to clarify a few things the team has seen pop up in this thread:

• Converting the turn-in steps to Autocomplete on Daily and Weekly missions is only being done when the turn-in step is a 'Return to Dropbox' type of step. It will not be done to any turn-ins with a cinematic or otherwise.
• In some cases it makes more sense to keep tagging rules to the old system where only a group shares credit and looting. Encounters such as Dreadtooth and Ancient Threat will continue to use group tagging rules.
• The auto-sorting of the inventory on PTS is a known bug, and not the desired behavior. You should expect inventory to work as it does in the Live game today upon 7.0's release. We will update the Known Issues thread in the PTS forum to reflect this

Hi everyone,

Wanted to share our recent article regarding adjustments we are making to our next Operation. Please click the link for further details.

Jackie

Hi all,

Wanted to call attention to additional known issues that we will be adding to the status update/known issues list.

• PvP gear loop is not available with this build but will be there in a future build.
• Phase scaling for Operations and Flashpoints are not working properly.
• Elite Decurion right-side gear is not upgrading properly on the vendor. Workaround is having the Columi gear in order for the vendor to show the upgrades.

Hi everyone!

Truly an honor to see SWTOR�s very own Darth Malgus on the front cover of Star Wars Insider's January (#207) issue. What a way to celebrate our 10 year anniversary! This special edition goes on sale December 8 exclusively at participating Comic Shops.

Hi everyone,

Here is an inside look into an update coming to gearing in 7.0. Legendary Items is a new way to customize the play style of your character! Expect to see some of these in an upcoming PTS patch coming in the very near future.

Hi Kage_goomba,

If you are comfortable doing so, feel free to send me a PM with the details of your exchange and include the details that Steve listed above, and I will assist as best as I can.

Hi everyone,

A hotfix has been deployed and the RNG mechanic should now be behaving as intended. Please note that this fix will slowly hit all the areas of the game overnight. If you experience any issues pertaining to this specific topic, please update the thread here as I'll be keeping an eye on it. Thank you for your patience on this.

Jackie

Hi everyone,

Small update. The team took a deeper dive into how the two challenges were being chosen. In short, the RNG mechanic is not behaving as it should. The team is currently working on a fix, but to ensure that the fix is thoroughly tested and functioning properly, it will not be implemented until early next week though we are trying to target Monday.

As it is Friday, I wanted to let you all know to expect Ultimate Galactic Sampler to pop up throughout the weekend. I'll have more to share when the fix is deployed and will update this thread accordingly.

Jackie

Hi all,

I'll be passing along these concerns to the team. Additionally, I understand that speculation can happen when it comes to how issues, concerns, bugs, feedback, etc... is handle behind the scenes. Please understand that when I said my goal is to communicate the sentiments of the players to the dev team, that is what I do.

I'll be bringing these concerns up to the team as I did when I initially responded in this thread.

Today's "Challenge Dish" is "Ultimate Galactic Sampler" again.

JackieKO, can you please address this:

Will the mission "Challenge Dish: Spicy Nexu Tongue" appear at least once in the next 2 weeks?

Hi all,

We've received reports that some of the passives are missing descriptions. The team is aware of this issue. I'll be updating the OP with the relevant info once I have it.

Hi all,

These are automated emails that are in direct response to the 1 day sub grant we are giving to players who were impacted by the October 6th incident. Your account will not have any additional renewals of subs.

Thanks!

EDIT: Per OP's request, locking this thread.
