A look at the changes in Game Updates 5.0 PTS 1-5. Please note that this is not a compete list of all changes in the patch, is subject to change at any time (info is from PTS files), and is my own personal interpretation of the data. Also note that the difference comparisons were generated between 4.7.2 live and 5.0 PTS #5, and that the PTS build did not have a few of the new cartel market / other changes from 4.7.2 merged with it. This post was generated by the joint efforts of SwtorHamster and Jedipedia.
Warning: This post contains HEAVY spoilers. You have been warned.
