No spoilers beyond our usual level of spoilers! Which is to say, not much in the way of spoilers.

You don't need to do anything special beyond showing up, it is open to the public. No reservations/RSVP needed. Your daughter can absolutely attend. Our Cantinas are almost always open to all ages, folks under 18 just need to be accompanied by an adult (this is usually dictated by the venue or state law since we have alcohol).

Please Eric make it totally clear what kind of impact your PvP Visions for Ioktah have to all the PvE Players! For me, I can say, I would not survive a single minute on Iokath! Please Eric, don't break my heart!
If I'm not able to get my hubby back bc of those PvP actions I would hate you so much ...and I don't want to hate you at all. But this would be a Gamebreaker for me and, like I did in WoW, I would draw consequences!
Iokath will behave like all other open world areas in the game. If you are in a PvE instance, you will not experience any PvP unless you flag yourself or attempt to go into an enemy base (which could get you flagged).

There are no Class balance changes currently planned for 5.2. I will keep you guys updated on when any Class changes will be coming in the future as soon as I have that information.

It has no impact at all. Your dark/lightside choices are not tied to your Faction.

There are PvE impacts to Faction selection (I will go into that in a separate post). Yes you can get that currency from all over the planet in addition to players.

Hey folks,

With the launch of 5.2 The War for Iokath we wanted to be sure to encourage PvP wherever possible. It is a part of the design of the Missions on Iokath that players will be running into each other fairly often. This afforded us the opportunity to make PvP more of a focus beyond just a place for open world PvP to occur. Here are some of the things that set Iokath apart as it relates to PvP:
  • In open world PvP, enemies and allies will be determined by the Faction you choose to fight for, not the faction your Class is a part of.
    • Ex: If you are Trooper who chose to fight for the Republic, you will be flagged as an enemy against a Jedi Knight who is fighting for the Empire.
    • Choosing which Faction to side with has no effect on your character outside of Iokath.
  • You will be able to loot Iokath specific currency from other players that you kill. You will not actually be stealing that currency from them, but it will drop from them similar to how it works for NPCs.
  • On Iokath you can spend that currency to do special things such as piloting a walker. You will be able to pilot the walker in the same area as other players and use said walker for murderous intent against enemy players.

As you can see there are some specific additions that we are making in 5.2 to really encourage open world PvP play. Let us know if you have any questions about these changes.

#2 Trying to send video of cheating in PVP SWTOR refuses to reply

It would have been nice if Eric would have replied that any video format is fine or mentioned the preferred format or that they don't want videos, that way others would know.
Apologies if that is true. I took format to mean PM, email, etc. not video format.

To answer that specifically, I recommend posting an unlisted YouTube video (so that you aren't calling out players in any format) and then send that link along with details to me in a forum PM.

We absolutely want those reports so please send them on!

You can access it via groupfinder at level 50 as with other story modes. You will be bolstered accordingly.

I also confirmed that you do not need to complete the story to access the Operation.
