Hey everyone! We just kicked out a new PTS build for you all to check out! Below are items that we are tracking based on your feedback. Basilisk Prototype Venture - Fixes Updated task descriptions on the Venture screen to make objectives clearer. The Iokath bonus mission for B3-S1 training now refers to completing the World Boss instead of a Heroic Mission. Corrected some instances where B3-S1 appeared in Lane's Lab while she was active as a companion. Changed requirements for progression steps that required players to use B3-S1's abilities. These steps should now count the use of any of that role's abilities. Added a 'Training Reminder' mission to remind players to use another training module while completing the introduction mission. Missions like Unconventional Methods on Ruhnuk, where you control a droid or other entity, may not work as intended with B3-S1. On PTS, Unconventional Methods will grant training progress, but B3-S1 will be present while you control the mouse droid. We are discussing a wider solution for missions like this one. Added a button (“Lane’s Lab”) to the Venture screen that transports you to Ruhnuk so you can easily return to Lane’s Lab. Added a button to the Venture screen that allows players to obtain the introductory mission if they are eligible. Dantooine Spring Event - Fixes Add Daily/Weekly descriptors to mission names for clarity Replaced the step on Seed Sourcing: Nar Shaddaa to use an extra action button to place the order with an interaction with the terminal to mitigate confusion. The cultivation droid now has sound effects for harvesting and watering plants. Germination Missions on Mek-Sha and Nar Shaddaa and Creature Rehabilitation mission only awards credits If a player doesn't loot the fish crate at the end of Zap-a-Fish on their first interaction with it, it should no longer become unlootable. Humanoid companions will now participate in the Festive Spring Dance with you, and they will sit down when you do during Zap-a-Fish. Using fertilizer on Y’limerson Dewbell plants during Cultivation should now be more consistent. Mission Updates: Creature Husbandry Updated several mission objective descriptions to improve clarity. Improved map display for Orobird nests on Rishi and made it easier to tell where they are when found. Updated the positions of the transport carriers. Transport carriers are now easier to interact with. Re-worked steps on Alderaan with nerfs to improve mission flow. Made improvements to mission flow and clarity on Hoth. Removed the "Check on Creatures" step after returning to the farm. Improved appearances for several visual effects and interactable objects in the mission. Interacting with the Creature Care Guide now displays more information to players about its contents. Relocated Veterinary Equipment to the barn. Wrangling the creatures now produces a follower of that creature type. Improved visual feedback with carriers and creatures on steps for taking creatures to carriers to be released back into the wilds. Dantooine Spring Event - Tracking There is no global map location for the Rishi Egg Hunt mission. [WEEKLY] Seed Sourcing: Dantooine is not repeatable One new feature that players will see on this iteration of PTS is a Pop Up Window that will give players a short but informative overview of new content that has been added in any given update. This window will appear once when new content has been added to the game. It is still a work in progress as we need to update messaging and the functionality of it, but we wanted to give you all a look into this feature as early as possible. To help keep info on the new iteration of PTS in one spot, I’ll be locking the initial PTS announcement thread and keeping this one open. Please continue to use the Basilisk Protype and Dantooine Spring Event feedback threads as you have been! Thanks all!

Hi everyone, The PTS is open again. We would like to hear from players who were having issues with starting the Venture system and if they can confirm if they are able to or not able to begin the Venture. Thanks!

Hey everyone, Giving you all a heads up that we will be bouncing the Public Test Server within the next 15 minutes or so to deploy a potential fix that players are seeing with beginning the Basilisk Prototype Venture System. Thanks!

Adding another note that I've added to the OP. If you open your Legacy window, you can navigate to Ventures to view your progress and objectives!

Unlocking this thread so we can get some reports in. The team would like to know what happens when you log out of the PTS and back in again. We tested characters and saw the necessary Achievements register, so we could begin the missions. Thanks!

Oh that's a good callout. I've updated the OP!

The PTS environment is not the same as the live or dev environments. If you're familiar with PTS iterations, there are instances where, as examples, terminals are conveniently placed to give gear to players or transport them to where they need to be. That is not natural game progress. Regarding this intro mission for the Venture System, this scenario would not be experienced on the live environment because this starting point is set up differently and specifically for PTS. That said, I will reiterate that the team is investigating. For now, locking this thread. Once we get a pathway opened up for players, I will unlock this thread, so players can answer the feedback questions.

Thanks for the updates, everyone! Team is investigating. I'll update this thread again when I know more.

Hi everyone, If you missed the stream yesterday, you can check out the recap article here! The article also includes the VOD that has been published to YouTube as well. Thanks!

Hey there! Can you confirm if you are able to travel to the Daily Areas on your ship?

Hello! This is the feedback thread for the new spring event! In order to get started, choose Dantooine on your Galaxy Map and travel to the location labeled Blba Groves. Below are feedback questions that the team would like players to answer regarding the Dantooine Spring Event Missions. Questions: Did you encounter any bugs that prevented you from completing missions? If so, please provide as much detail as possible about what you experienced. Were any mission objectives unclear or confusing? If so, which ones? Were any of the missions frustrating? If so, which ones and what caused you trouble? What was your favorite mission? What did you enjoy about it? What are your overall impressions of the Spring Abundance Festival? Did you encounter any other bugs or issues during testing? Please describe them with as much detail as possible. Thanks!

Hello! Below are feedback questions that the team would like players to answer regarding the Basilisk Venture system. It is important to note and reiterate that it will take time for players to completely unlock B3-S1. For PTS specifically, we want to know feedback on the overall process of training the Basilisk Prototype like completing the Dailies to repair the droid and upgrade her abilities. To set expectations, what players will see on the PTS are the beginnings of the venture only. Additionally, please ensure that the character you copy over has access to the Ruhnuk Dailies. Otherwise, you will not be able to complete the Basilisk Prototype intro mission. Instructions: Once logged onto the PTS, you will arrive on Ruhnuk. A nearby terminal will allow you access to the intro mission. This terminal will only be available for PTS testing. Press Y to open your Legacy window and navigate to Ventures to view progress and objectives. Questions: After playing through the introductory mission, did you have a good understanding of how to progress the venture? Was anything confusing or unclear about how to repair your Basilisk Prototype? Was the Venture UI (in the Legacy Panel) clear and easy to understand? Were there any parts of it you had difficulty using? What did you think of the Basilisk Prototype Companion itself? Is it something you would enjoy unlocking and using? Why or why not? Did you encounter any issues that prevented you from progressing the Venture? Please describe them in detail. Did you encounter any other bugs or issues during your testing? What are your overall impressions of the Venture System and of the Basilisk Prototype Companion? Thanks!

Important things to note for 7.5 PTS testing: Character copy will be available as we want feedback on natural player experience There will be WIP markers present Below are the feedback threads. Please answer all of the questions that the team asks and keep all comments and posts relevant to the feedback questions. Basilisk Prototype Venture Thread Please ensure that the character you copy over has access to the Ruhnuk Dailies. Otherwise, you will not be able to complete the Basilisk Prototype intro mission. It is important to note and reiterate that it will take time for players to completely unlock B3-S1. For PTS specifically, we want to know feedback on the overall process of training the Basilisk Prototype like completing the Dailies to repair the droid and upgrade her abilities.

Thanks all!

Hey Players! We just talked about it on the 7.5 dev stream, but I wanted to give more detail on some changes you’ll see upcoming in PvP Season 6. Summary: PvP Seasons will be extended to 16 weeks long (from 12) The maximum Season Level will be increased to 30 (from 25) Maximum catchup level will increase to 20 (from 15) Note: The catchup start date will remain unchanged The points per level will increase to 300 (from 280). The total points required to complete the PvP Season will be increased to 9000 (from 7000). New rewards will be added to the Season Track A season themed Emote Warzone Adrenals and Medpacs Reviewing the way PvP Seasons are released and the cadence of seasons throughout a year, we are going to implement a few changes to PvP Seasons, making them a bit more similar to Galactic Seasons and more predictable. With this change, PvP Seasons will launch with our .X patches and Galactic Seasons will launch with our X.X patches. For example: PvP Season 6 will launch with 7.5 Galactic Seasons 7 will launch with 7.5.1 PvP Season 7 will launch with 7.6 Galactic Seasons 8 will launch with 7.6.1 Longer PvP Seasons The most noticeable change is that PvP Seasons will now last 16 weeks instead of 12 weeks, and will have a maximum level of 30 (up from 25). To match with this longer season, the required points per level will increase to 300 (from 280). Players will be able to use credits to catch up to level 20 (previously capped at level 15). What does this mean for completing the season? By lengthening the season this way, we are able to reduce the amount of time players need to play each week to complete the full PvP Season. This will allow you to progress through the season more slowly and make it easier to take breaks if life situations happen. New Rewards on the Track For the 5 new levels on the reward track, we will be adding Warzone Adrenals and Medpacs, an emote that matches the seasonal theme, and adjusting the reward levels that used to grant 2 rewards. We hope you’ve been enjoying PvP Seasons as much as we have, I can’t wait to see you in Warzones!

Hi everyone, Appreciate your patience on this matter! We were looking to grant game time back to accounts that were impacted by the loading screen issue that didn’t require players reaching out to support. As of today, all accounts that were subscribed while the bug was active have been granted 30 days of game time to their account. This will be reflected on their subscription status on their account page on swtor.com and they will also be receiving the automated subscription email as well. Thank you for your patience, everyone! EDIT: Was informed that the subscription rollouts are showing that they will take some time, so the grants are not immediate!

Hi all, Happy to announce that we will be hosting the Game Update 7.5 dev stream on May 1st at 1pm CT / 6pm UTC. I know we initially said it would happen in April, but we wanted make sure PTS content was ready for you all before showing it off publicly. As always, we will be hosting the stream over on our streaming channel! See you all next week!

Hey Community! I’m back after an excavation mission into our loot to check on some of the drops mentioned, and want to share my findings with you. First let’s tackle the drops that will be fixed in a future patch! These drops are currently broken and will be fixed in patch 7.5: Copero Resort Rug from Traitor Among the Chiss Obtained from bonus boss Strike Team Walker Illumination Probe Crate from Blood Hunt Obtained from the Mandalorian Cache Manned Blaster Turret from Collicoid War Games Obtained from Annihilator 6K-A2 Corellian AA Turret from Objective Meridian Obtained from final bosses These drops will have their sources corrected in patch 7.5: Czerka Banner: Sunrise will correctly say it drops from [FLASHPOINT] Czerka Core Meltdown Czerka Data Core will correctly say it drops from [FLASHPOINT] Czerka Corporate Labs —---------------—---------------—---------------—---------------—--------------- Next, let’s discuss drops that won’t be changing at this time. We are aware of the low drop rates and difficulty requirements for these items and will be continuing discussions on how to best address them. These changes will be part of a larger initiative to enhance loot in Operations and Flashpoints. These items are dropping, but only from specific difficulties: Asteroid Mining Cart from Hammer Station Master Mode Red Sphere from Xenoanalyst II Veteran Mode Desler Turbo from Karagga’s Palace Story Mode These items are dropping correctly with low drop rates: Avalanche Tank from Explosive Conflict Desler Explorer from Martinique Desler Desler Avenger from Eternity Vault Wings of Nihrot from The R4 Anomaly Lysslo (Geonosian Handler License) from the Mutated Geonosian Queen These items require further investigation: All Uprisings Mounts Eternal Championship Mounts Thank you all for bringing these drops to our attention, and please continue to let us know if you suspect more drops are not working properly. I’ll be back after a next excursion into more reported drops!

Hello! To prevent an issue where HK-55 could be unavailable after Arma Rasa, the alliance alert is no longer granted when a Chapter is active. If you finish the Chapters (or replay Chapter IX: The Alliance, as it is the fastest) the alert will show up, once you meet the requirements.

@Master_Neaj Hi there! As suggested earlier in this thread, please reach out to support@swtor.com with the details of your transfer, so they have the necessary info. Be sure to include your account name. Thanks!

Hey folks! This is a bug and will be fixed in a future patch. Thank you for the report!

Hi everyone, We’re extending the cut off date for the 16 free transfers to the Shae Vizla server to 14 April, 2024 11:59pm CT / 15 April, 2024 2:59pm AEST, so players have the whole weekend to process transfers if they have not yet. As a reminder, Subscribers have until 10 June, 2024 to take advantage of the 50% discount (500 Cartel Coins off!) on transfers to the Shae Vizla server. Thanks!

Hi everyone, The Galactic Seasons 6 objectives have been updated. Please see here or the events page to see the updated objectives for April 9 - May 13. DE/FR translations will be coming soon! Thanks!

Hey there! The next batch of GS objectives will be going up later today!

Hey folks, You brought up 3 different Daily Areas so let's talk about each of these as they are all slightly different: Rishi - This change has not been made yet and will likely be made in 7.5. Ziost - As noted above for <spoiler reasons> this Daily Area is a bit more complicated and will likely remain as is where it requires character story progression to unlock (we'll take a look though). Ossus - This is not fully changed to unlock based on the Achievement only. If you have the Achievement you will notice that some of the Daily Area will work but some of the NPCs and Missions will be unavailable right now. That is why we didn't put it in the patch notes, it will be fully available in 7.5. Thanks all. -eric

Hey there! We wanted to make sure to get Kessan's Landing fixed since it was the new Daily Area and was missing those Conquest Objectives, but let me make a note to get a pass on Daily Areas that have these missing as well. -eric
