NEWS
Commander Ahsoka Tano Additive Drops

For a limited time, Commander Ahsoka Tano shards will be added to all Light Side Hard nodes as bonus drops. During this event, this character's drop rate on each node has been scaled to Energy.

Light Side Battle Hard nodes will be rewarding bonus drops on 10/23.

Staying on the theme of additive drops, the players have voted and results are in! For a limited time the Malevolence - winner of the Galactic Chase forum poll - will be added to all Light Side Battle nodes as bonus drops. During this event, this ship's drop rate on each node will be scaled to Energy.
Light Side Battles are rewarding bonus drops from 10/8 through 10/14.

The “Core Gear” reward from Territory War is being updated to include the more highly-requested Mk 8 Biotech Implant Component Salvage. This will replace the Mk 9 Biotech Implant Component Salvage currently featured in the rewards.

The Conquest Sector 5 feat "Marked for Death" has been removed. In its place is the new feat, "One by One."
