The galaxy is alive, bustling with chaotic adventures, and full of encounters both dynamic and… kitten-related? Yes, that’s the magic of SWTOR Game Update 7.6! Let’s dive into the nitty-gritty details of the latest update, complete with Dynamic Encounters and the menacing Propagator Core XR-53 Operation Boss. Dynamic Encounters: Adventures with a Twist Dynamic Encounters are here to make sure Tatooine and Hoth feel like living, breathing planets rather than just big sandboxes (and snowboxes). These new activities rotate their availability, so there’s always something fresh to sink your teeth into. What Are Dynamic Encounters? Dynamic Encounters are spontaneous, map-marked events that anyone can jump into, whether flying solo or with a squad. Keep an eye on your Galaxy Map to see what’s active. From there, it’s all about exploring, encountering, and completing the tasks at hand. Fun Highlights: And just when you thought things couldn’t get weirder—Hidden Chain Invasions….

SWTOR: First look at Izax the Destroyer
BioWare is teasing the next raid boos in SWTOR! Both there offical Facebook page and on twitter they have boon posting these two images of the new Operation Boss – Izax – who is the final addition to Gods from the Machine! This new encounter should be available from March 2018 ( if they don’t push it any further ) Here is what we know: Little is known about the six titan droids that lie in hibernation on Iokath. These superweapons were created millennia ago by the planet’s architects, likely designed to pacify, subjugate, and destroy entire civilizations. Salvaged records indicate these machines operate as a sentient family unit of “god kin.” They are: TYTH, God of Rage. AIVELA, Goddess of Passion. ESNE, Goddess of Envy. NAHUT, God of Apathy. SCYVA, Goddess of Sorrow. IZAX, God of Death. During early weapon testing, Iokath unleashed the Six Gods on various unsuspecting…

TOR TV: Terror from Beyond is a beautiful operation
Youtube user heltidsluffare created this short film of his very first run in Terror from Beyond. As he mention in the title of the movie, Terror from Beyond is a beautiful operation- and so I agree. Personally I thought it was like a breath of fresh air loading in for the first time. It really had that big open feel that I was hoping more of the planets/zones would have. I also think this has been my least buggy experience with an operation to be honest. My ops group have not hit a single bug that stopped our progress… The only one I’ve seen at all is when the adds on the first boss don’t despawn after a wipe, but we were able to kill them without triggering the boss, so no worries really.
New SWTOR Content on the Way
With the news of the new free to play coming soon to SWTOR, we also learned that there will be some new content coming to the game. While dates have not been confirmed yet, there are five new pieces of content we know is on the way in the near future. Let’s take a look at these five new pieces of content and remember we will continue to update you with more information as it comes in. New Warzone There will be a new warzone added to SWTOR called the Ancient Hypergate. It’s supposed to be on the new planet of Asation and they promise us new game mechanics… whatever that means. A new warzone is a plus for anyone who loves PvP and since there will be many benefits with a free to play model, we can expect this to affect PvP as well as the population of servers….
Intergalactic Intel: Operations
“Drop group,” Niggles whispered me. At this point in our relationship I learned that if Niggles requested something, it was usually for my benefit. An invite message promped from Niggles a few seconds later. “I’m not ready for this.” I whispered back. “Don’t worry Zexu. This is an easy operation.” Welcome back to another installment of Intergalactic Intel! My apologies for being so late on this article, but you get two today! I’m reporting from the wonderful San Francisco, as I attend GDC. Without further ado let’s get down to this week’s topic. Operations. Operations are what we call raids here in SWTOR. You can complete them with eight or sixteen people. In addition to this you have normal mode, hard mode and nightmare modes to attempt to complete. Each level providing a new challenge of difficulty and a new amount of loot. The team I ran with this week…
