Noted. Do you have any additional feedback in terms of what clean up looks like/means to you?

Changing topic, would you like to tell us something about you? Games you play, things you like, hobbies , ...?
Nice to meet you too! Those are fantastic memories to have.

I have a special place in my heart for RPGs. I love a good story. I very much enjoy cooking and baking. Macarons and ramen happen to be my main focus right now. Ive also become obsessed with growing avocado plants.

Hello! Can you dive a little more into that? What type of attention do you mean? Posts in general? Clean up? Moderation? Let me know!

#3 December In-Game Event Schedule

Very fair question, which I have talked over with the team. With regards to why Pirate Incursion is occurring twice this month while Gree and Bounty Contract Week are not happening, it's because we wanted to highlight our newer events more around the general holiday window.

For us Conquests can fall into two categories - ones tied to specific in-game events (EX. Pirate Incursion) and ones that are standalone (EX. Flashpoint Havoc). The in-game event schedule is something the team has more of a manual touch on, meanwhile the Conquests that fall between the in-game events are randomly determined. While it's easy for us to pull up the in-game event schedule to communicate it broadly at the beginning of every month, that really isn't the case for the non-event Conquests, which is why we never folded those in to the outward facing article/page updates.

We really appreciate the constructive feedback around around certain in-game events appearing more than others and we'll take this into account as we look into potential changes next year.

Thank you for the example!

Thank you! This is a pretty loaded question. What I mean by bridging the community and the dev team is to improve communication where possible, being active in the forums, and essentially being an advocate for both voices, community and dev team. What that looks like? Thats what Im going to be feeling out. What does the community resonate with, where are places that need attention etc So Im going to be trying out different things and Im pretty sure Ill be receiving feedback on every step haha. I hope that gives a little more insight into what I want to do here.

I love this so much. Helping others learn so more people can experience something together is such a top tier feeling for me. Im so happy to read that this was your experience.

That being said i despise having only Lucky and Snowblind worldbosses among conquest objectives literally every single week. It never changes, every week no matter which conquest will be running theres always Lucky and Snowblind worldboss objectives there.

Can we get some change here please? I mean would it be so hard to put all other worldbosses into the mix? And maybe throw in Grim Tooth among the cq objectives from Makeb too since thats almost-worldboss anyway.
Hi Darittha. Thanks for bringing this up. The team took a look into this and a fix will be implemented in 6.2.1. Once the fix is in, these two particular World Boss Conquest Objectives will only be available during the Emergency Operations Conquest, The Dread War Conquest, or if the Feast of Prosperity seasonal event is active.

Hello, everyone!

Im Jackie, and Im incredibly excited to be here! Over the next few weeks, Ill be going through the forums, building an understanding of the community, and getting to know all of you! Im very much looking forward to interacting with everyone and being a bridge between this community and the dev team. Building up and nurturing that relationship will remain a top priority for me.

Fun fact! I love reading about community members sentimental experiences that mean a lot to them. Tell me about some of the best moments youve experienced in game or within the community. I'll be reading all of them!

What do I do if my subscriber Cartel Coins are over 2 weeks late?

Hi folks,

As mentioned in the thread, players who are missing their monthly Cartel Coins need to directly contact our support team (keep in mind that sometimes those can be just delayed for a few days).

Hey everyone!

I wanted to follow-up here with some clarity on a few things. Conquests will begin at 12:00pm GMT, so the previous Conquest week will end at 11:00am GMT to allow for the hour cooldown period between events.

Some of you have been curious why we're making this timing change. We have aspects of SWTOR that reset on a weekly basis - Operations lockouts, Weekly Mission Resets, Conquests, etc. We know that these events are important for players and some modify their playtime based on when these resets happen. Aligning all our reset timers makes things easier for players to keep up to date with SWTOR, provides an expectation for future resets, and helps prevent potential development problems on our end when having multiple systems using different resetting behavior.
