The server merge next week celebrates Star Wars: The Old Republic (SWTOR) with gifts. This is cleverly orchestrated, as you must log in to receive the two rewards and can witness the server chaos live! But follow me and let’s take a closer look at the two presents!
Mini Mogul NM-1 Mini Pet
First we have the Mini Mogul NM-1 Mini Pet, which charms us with its five little legs and looks almost like it is wearing a funny pink hat. It is modeled after the much more dangerous walker of the Hutt Karagga the Unyielding, who proves to be a sometimes tough opponent.
The facts about the “pet”
- Received when logging in between November 8 and 27.
- On the 28th, you can then fish it out of the mail and show it off.
The companion Darth Hexid
Darth Hexid is feared, battle-tested, and currently seemingly primarily one thing: In search of a long-term combat partner. If you regularly give her exercise (including battles for the dark side!) and occasionally feed her hate, she is a very low-maintenance companion.
The facts about Darth Hexid
- To win her as a companion, you must complete three PvE or three PvP missions through the group finder between November 8 and 27.
- From November 28, you can either free her from the mail immediately or recruit her. To take the more difficult route, you must:
- complete a specific mission on the planet Odessen and
- finish the story from the Knights of the Eternal Throne expansion.
Why this should please many
Probably you still remember the Dark vs. Light event that disrupted the balance of power for an entire summer and culminated at the end of last year. With newly generated characters, players had to make decisions for the dark or light side of the Force while leveling and let actions speak for one of the two sides.
In the end, it was determined which side had the supremacy. With 52%, the light side narrowly won back then. The rewards were manifold: Among other things, the light side of the Force received the companion Ranos. However, players of the dark side were left empty-handed: Darth Hexid, who would have been a reward in the event of the dark side’s victory, remained unplayable.
After Hexid fans had to starve for a year and surely wept bitter tears, they can now rejoice! Darth Hexid is just waiting to side with you to fight against the Jedi!
