Hey folks,

Quick update. I already highlighted the changes coming tomorrow in 5.8a but I wanted to let you know that we are still actively discussing future changes to Conquests which will come out in 5.9. I am hoping to have a list of those changes before the end of the week, I will pass on info as I have it.

Thank you for your continued feedback.

Not all but definitely most. If there is something missing that you wish to see let us know and we can work on getting it added for a future direct sale.

Hey folks,

Over the last year weve changed how we operate the Cartel Market based on your suggestions, including increasing the number of items and the frequency in limited time, direct purchase sales. Our goal is to give you more freedom to choose how you get your items. Want to get them out of packs? You still can! Want to get them directly? Now you can do that, too.

Starting with the Spring event on Tuesday, March 27th players will begin to see changes take shape in three key areas: direct sale of items, new items, and the next Cartel Market (CM) pack. This Spring event is a limited time event which will run from Tuesday, March 27th through Tuesday, April 17th. Check out each section below for specifics!

New Items
Been looking to get the new Dark Honor Guards Unstable Saber (its amazing) since the launch of Game Update 5.8 Command Authority? Well that saber along with all the new 5.8 Cartel Market items will be available for direct sale starting tomorrow, March 27th!

The Next CM Pack
Our new Cartel Pack will be called the Ultimate Pack will be available tomorrow as well and it works a bit differently than other packs:
  • Each pack contains 4 slots. Slots 1, 2, and 3 can contain any item ever released on the CM, including the new items coming in Command Authority (Game Update 5.8), and any future items. Slot 4 will then contain either scrap, Companion Gifts, or a Dye Module. Dyes being in slot 4 is a big change from how it worked in older packs.
  • Pricing of the packs has been lowered; they can be purchased individually (200 CC), in a 10-pack Supercrate (1900 CC), or in a 30-pack Hypercrate (5400 CC).

Cartel Market Limited Time Sale
From Tuesday, April 3rd through Tuesday, April 17th almost every Cartel Market item will be available for direct sale! Maybe there is an item you have been waiting to see in our weekly sales, or, you just dont want to throw the credits at it on the GTN. This will give you an opportunity to scoop that item up.

Let us know your thoughts! We appreciate your continued feedback.

Two things of note from the thread we are looking into:
  • Changes in Companion stats/ability - The team is looking into it now, I will let you know what they discover.
  • Increase cost for mod / augment removal - This is not intended and will be fixed in a future update.

You have said it was "the plan" to send out the missing rewards tomorrow - is it still the plan?
Correct, those rewards are planned to go out during tomorrow's maintenance.

Totally understood! As mentioned in the other thread, the Conquest revamp and its impact on alts is something we are aware of and monitoring for future changes. As soon as I know anything specific I will pass it on!

Those Objectives are already in all other Conquests. They weren't patch noted since that isn't something that changed, whereas the PVP and GSF ones were not consistent with those PvE Objectives. Hope that makes sense!

Why is so much missing from patch notes?

We definitely try to ensure you know everything that is changing in each Game Update. If something is missing from patch notes it will typically qualify in one of three categories:
  • It is part of a large system revamp - In these cases we will generalize the overall changes that occured but will not list every specific change.
  • It is a change that was intended but was missed during the patch note process.*
  • It was an unintended change, or it is a bug.*
    • *In both of these cases the best bet is report them in the bug report forum so we can look into and see if it is intended or not.
Even outside of Conquests I know there have been a variety of reports of things changing with 5.8. My advice is to continue letting us know of anything you see like that (in the bug report forum, in its own thread) and I will continue sending it on to the team for investigation.

Thanks!
