BioWare is changing the Cantina Tour give out pet. Starting from the next event in Atlanta, participants will no longer be given the Taunfawn mini pet, but instead a new M8-3R Astromech! Pretty cool eh?
The Star Wars: The Old Republic Community Cantina Tour Arrives in Atlanta, GA! | 02.26.2014, 01:25 PM
Hey folks!
I wanted to announce something I am pretty excited about for our Atlanta event… a new community mini-pet! That’s right, we feel the Taunfawn may have run its course and it is time for a new pet. Our new mini-pet is the M8-3R Astromech! He is a sleek yellow and silver, in honor of our forum colors. Atlanta will be the first event where we are giving away the M8-3R instead of the Taunfawn, and we will continue to give away the droid from that event forward for the rest of the year.
If you don’t have a Taunfawn, fret not. We still intend to continue giving them away on our weekly stream, along with occasionally on the forums and social media as well. If you aren’t attending our Atlanta event but you want to see what the new pet looks like, Tait will be running around with one in-game on our Friday stream this week.
Hopefully we will see many of you at our events so you can get an M8-3R of your very own.
