In SWTOR, some content is being pushed back. What is the compensation for that?
Trade large Wookiee for small Jawa
In the latest developer stream, the creators of Star Wars: The Old Republic shared some insights and discussed changes that will not please all fans.
The “Eternal Championship” event, where players can prove themselves in a series of exciting arena battles, has been removed from the upcoming chapter. It will not be coming with “Anarchy in Paradise”, but rather in the following update in March. This also means that the companion Bowdaar, the former Wookiee of the Smuggler, can only be recruited one month later.
In the Eternal Championship, the player alongside a companion will have to overcome 10 different challenges. These are essentially small boss fights that offer “rare rewards” if successfully completed. Bowdaar will be available as part of these rewards (presumably after the hardest challenge).
To somewhat compensate for the delay of this single-player arena, a quest will be added that allows players to recruit the small Jawa “Blizz” again.
There were also a handful of new information regarding crafting. The limit for all professions will be raised to 550. There will be completely new crafting materials and consequently new armor, modifications, and associated missions.
PvP players can look forward to a new battleground that carries the principle of “King of the Hill” to SWTOR. The various control points are supposed to appear randomly during the match, requiring quick adjustments from the respective teams. Further details will be shared in a developer stream in February.
