Hey everyone,
As Eric mentioned on the stream yesterday, we are putting together a patch to go live next week that will address a few issues that we’ve seen since the release of 4.6.

We are currently planning a maintenance on Tuesday, July 5th from 7AM PDT (1500 BST) – 9AM PDT (1700 BST), and here are the tentative notes for the patch:

  • Players can no longer become unable to progress in Chapter 15 due to making certain conversation choices.
  • The Bogstalker Handler’s License can now be used by players who have a Ginx Companion.
  • Increased the maximum available number of Character Slots per server. Free-To-Play, Preferred, and Subscriber Players have had their available slots increased to 22/26/50.
  • The Grand Chance Cubes will no longer drop invalid items.
  • Color Crystals obtained from the Force-Bound Dark vs. Light boxes are now unlocked in Collections as intended.
  • It is now possible to unlock the 6th Cargo Bay Tab with the Account Unlock option.
  • The Victorious Pioneer’s 5-Piece Set Bonus now properly applies its Experience boost.
  • Players are no longer killed randomly in Alliance Proving Grounds.
  • Jawa Junk stacks now always drop at the max quantity possible:
