Our frustration isn't ever personal Keith...we're delighted to be spending our money and time on the things you guys work on every day...we spend HOURS, every day, playing in a world you guys created from scratch...some of us spend more time online in a single day, than you guys possibly could at the office.

I hope you take all of our frustrations as praise for how much we enjoy what you guys work on. Don't ever be insulted...be humbled by how much passion you're able to create doing what you do. We wouldn't be here complaining if we weren't also enthralled by what you guys do for a living
Hey Tux, that's actually how I took it and was poking fun at myself, too. I do plan to tell everyone about what we are planning, how we want to deliver updates, and also discuss our expansion plans for SWTOR. I'll post up some insight when I'm ready to start those discussions (but, it's definitely not for at least another month).

Hey everyone,

I wanted to give you an update on the status of Game Updates 5.8 and 5.9. After reviewing our internal test results along with the feedback weve received from the players on our Public Test Server (PTS), we decided release 5.8 is not ready and needs a bit more time to make the necessary adjustments. The new targeted release date for 5.8 is now a week later on Tuesday, March 20, 2018. This additional time will help ensure we deliver a quality experience with Izax, the final Boss encounter for Gods from the Machine.

Also, while I have your attention, this means we will also move the release of Game Update 5.9 one additional week, too. We were planning to release 5.9 on April 24th, but the new date will be Tuesday, May 1, 2018.

Thanks all,

--Keith-

Hey folks,

Thanks for the heads up on this. To address this would likely require a server restart and since we are only a few hours from maintenance, we are going to let it be until then. We apologize for any inconvenience this causes. Everything should be back to normal, post-maintenance. Thanks everyone.

Can we please have some details about this? You didn't mention it in your post at all.
Good catch! The vendor is on the fleet, but they will not actually appear for your character until you have completed your Personal Conquest for the week. Once you can see the vendor, they sell both Stronghold Decorations and the Commander's Compendium.

The Compendium sells for 4.25 million credits and 3 Dark Projects each.

A few notes on the Compendium. It cannot be used on temporary Companions (sorry Darth Marr), it cannot be used on Companions at rank 50, it must be used outside of a phased area (such as a Flashpoint).

Alright, here is how it is going to work. Duplicates DO count towards your bonus. If you have three Coruscant Strongholds, all three count towards the cap. Reminder that this is only possible following United Forces.

The way the bonus is calculated is each Stronghold is worth up to 25%, based on the amount of rooms that are unlocked. I will use Umbara as an example... Since the Umbara Stronghold is 3 rooms (base unlock + 2 expansions) each of those is worth roughly 8%. Simply divide the number of rooms by 25% to get an idea of what each rooms value is.

Thanks everyone.
