Hi Holotable Heroes!
Here is all the new content you’ll find after today’s update,10/17/18.

The legendary Jedi Knight Revan has joined the Holotables! This warrior of legend is an extremely powerful Jedi leader and tactician who controls the battlefield with a wide mix of powerful abilities. Revan was rumored to have been very influential in shaping the history of the Jedi Order, and was part of many pivotal battles to stop the growing threat of the Sith.

This update also introduces the B-28 Extinction-class Bomber! This tactical bomber is capable of launching vast amounts of ordnance in order to wreak havoc and sow terror into the minds of the Sith’s enemies. The B-28 was used by the Sith Empire in the Great Galactic War and is most well known for laying waste to the Republic capital, Coruscant.

  • Of course Embo is a single hard node. I keep hoping for better and y’all keep squashing my hope.
    Ooba hutar.

    The change to ally points is the only interesting thing in the update besides the usual stuff. Maybe it will lead to something decent.

    1. No Hounds Tooth yet
    2. Embo is Darkside node huh. So those who are done with Zaalbar are back to no LS node farms
  • I was overcome with a great sadness when I saw Embo's farming location.
  • Entire forums: Stop giving us hard node farms and please add to different shops...

    CG: “We hear you guys and will be adding another character to hard nodes AND will be taking away ways to earn ally points without offering anything further with them. See you on the holotables!”
  • And a DS hard node at that.. Yay!! Thanks!!
  • I’m kinda upset about Embo’s farming location, you couldn’t at least give him a fleet node in addition to the hard node like you did with the OR toons. Oh and it’s a dark side node. :'(
    I’m expecting Aurra and Jango to get hard nodes too.
  • @CG_SBCrumb I don't mean to seem jaded or ungrateful... But there was a post in which you had said the rewards in the Revan event were going to be very impressive e (not exact quote, but that sentiment) and based on the listed rewards... They are fairly underwhelming. Just some mid- tier gear salvage.

    Is that a change made to the event, or a mistake in the event rewards listed? Or are these rewards considered to be impressive?
  • Thanks, CG for yet another 20 energy single node farm. Can't wait to farm Embo for 6 months after I'm done with the hard node farms to get JKR. You're really looking out for the community.
  • "EVENT - Fixed a bug causing a bad preview string to appear in Smuggler's Run."

    The most important part of this update to some of us. My OCD has been going crazy over that thing.

    Yeah, I read something along the lines of: one tier awards 15 pieces of all Rancor gear, the next tier awards 15 pieces of AAT gear, then zetas and omegas.

    Also, no achievements for Revan's event?
  • Embo 8-C darkside srsly??? Also, why no double drops???
  • Is that a change made to the event, or a mistake in the event rewards listed? Or are these rewards considered to be impressive?

    CG has a different definition of ‘impressive’ than we do. What a surprise.
  • Wondering what type of dictionary CG uses. Promised great rewards as we gather Revan and they are lackluster at best. Who needs this stuff? Probably not the people who just spent to get a high priced character.
  • @CG_SBCrumb
    Will the achievement for revan follow or are there no plans for One?
  • I’m speechless. Basically everthing that is wrong with this update has already been mentioned above. When you are numb you are numb.

    DS hard nodes.. right?
  • Your guy's greed is getting reallllllllly bad. Please take marvel strike force as an example of what happens when greed takes over.

    But we can't feel you there?

    Curious how the Ally Points will turn out eventually.

    for a powerful rework of the general grievous we to wait have more time...

    Guarantee that Jango is going to be a DS 20 energy single node farm.

    Thinking I should just hold all my Ally Points instead of burning them on Bronziums at this point?

    There is a bug in the client causing it to only show the rewards for the first tier of the event. There's a lot more then what you see during the preview phase.
  • @Roguetechna and anyone else wondering about rewards, just read this over at reddit. No need to panic about rubbish rewards yet:
