Bioware delivering next patch earlier than i expected. Happy Holidays for us. You still have time to test out the patch on  the Public Test Server, but only for the next few days. BioWare will launch the update during the Scheduled Maintenance window on Tuesday, December 11, so time to speed up my fleet commendations and WZ commendations grind!

Check out the announcement below:
