Here’s images of all 4 Rancor mounts.
They also added what appears to be a conversation-driven Craps mini-game. And it seems to be unrelated to the new event. You play the game by talking to a Craps dealer which starts the game as a conversation. It looks like you have two chances to pick one of three colors: Red, Blue, and White you think is going to come up on the chance cubes. The dealer then rolls the cubes one at a time. Each outcome has approximately the same probably, so you have a 2 in 9 chance of guessing both correctly. There also seems to be 4 random losing cinematics for this game. Which you’ll probably being doing a lot. No word yet on rewards.
Here’s the raw changes.

New Cartel Market/Collections Images
They added 3 Jawa Engineers to the Cartel Bazaar. These vendors take:
- Jawa Junk: Can be traded to Jawa Engineer for specialty goods. Cartel Market vendors can be found in the Cartel Bazaar on the Fleet.
- Assorted Droid Parts: Can be traded to Jawa Engineer for specialty goods. Cartel Market vendors can be found in the Cartel Bazaar on the Fleet.
- Scavenged Scrap: Can be traded to Jawa Engineer for specialty goods. Cartel Market vendors can be found in the Cartel Bazaar on the Fleet.
In quantities from 1-3 in exchange for almost every crafting material in the game or a Cartel Certificate. (even some deprecated ones from beta…) These are accessible right now on the PTS. What’s interesting is that there are three more token items:
- Contraband Transistor: Can be traded to Jawa Engineer for specialty goods. Cartel Market vendors can be found in the Cartel Bazaar on the Fleet.
- Dual Laser Engraver: Can be traded to Jawa Engineer for specialty goods. Cartel Market vendors can be found in the Cartel Bazaar on the Fleet.
- Black Market Alloy: Can be traded to Jawa Engineer for specialty goods. Cartel Market vendors can be found in the Cartel Bazaar on the Fleet.
These I don’t know what they’re used for. Or even where they would come from. It could be related to Galactic Strongholds as a way to make sure the market isn’t lacking the necessary lower-level crafting materials. I don’t know.
