That leak doesn't make any mention of Kephess.

expand the (+) things.

Quote:
Major Cobus: Kephess is working for the Dread Masters now--a group of rogue Sith trying to start their own Empire. Not sure how opening a hypergate helps.
Gatemaster Beltekk: The one you call Kephess is now perpendicular to the hypergate. He must be terminated, but we do not have bisectors capable of this.

Good catch. Now the question is how in the world did he survive? Did the dread masters somehow bring him back to life>

Teaming up to fight Cthulu with special Gree technology mechanics isn't quite the same thing as gang banging Illidan.

There you go. Very possible they could delay it since its not on PTS yet.

End of September/beginning of October is possible, depending on how much testing is required on the PTS.

My money's on Kephess too. Not seen that leak in detail but it kind of confirms it I guess. I'm just going of the cinematic at the end of the Explosive Conflict quest, where it shows Kephess still alive with the Dread Masters.
And it would make sense he'd be pissed off, we been kicking his *** since late April :P

And yeah can't wait for it to hit PTS and really have a look at it. I'll be honest though, the puzzle boss sounds the most intriguing. Didn't love the Anicent Pylons but Fabricator and Vorgath I find extremely fun.
Also I guess when it hits PTS is usually the best indication of when it'll go live, usually approx. 1 months after. Its usually like 3-6 weeks, but I'm going for the lower end based on the staggered content releases giving testers more concentrated time on the Operation.

Cant wait! But trying not to hype myself up too much, or ill just disappoint myself :P

HK47 and revan back together again?
Btw I thought SWTOR was staying away from the 16 or 8 people banging on one giant boss mob theme of mmos? I enjoyed the last 2 encounters in EC immensely because it keeps you on your toes through the gauntlets. I wish they would have more encounters like colonel vorgath and kephess instead of going to go beat on giant squid monster cthululu.
