    BioWare™ and Lucasfilm today launched exciting new multiplayer and solo gameplay with the ‘Defend the Throne’ Game Update for Knights of the Eternal Throne. Rally your troops for battle as rivals, traitors, and rogues alike seek to challenge your rule in Galactic Command. Whether you’re playing alongside friends or ruling the galaxy solo, the time has come to DEFEND THE THRONE!

    For those looking for the ultimate solo combat challenge, Master Mode difficulty mode is now live for all 25 Knights of the Fallen Empire and Knights of the Eternal Throne Chapters! As the most challenging combat level yet, Master Mode is your chance to prove your combat mastery for all the galaxy to see. The soldiers of the Eternal Empire will be more formidable than ever, and you alone must triumph over Zakuul’s most powerful family. Are you ready for the ultimate combat test?

    Plus, gather your allies for heart-pounding new multiplayer battles which will put your combat skills and teamwork to the test! Fire up Galactic Command and lead your friends into combat in FIVE new Uprisings, including:

    Trench Runner: Capture and defend the war-torn trenches of Denova against the fanatical Republic General Amos Rike and his elite commandos.
    Destroyer of Worlds: Escort your team and a payload of explosives deep beneath Makeb to defeat a corrupted Jedi Master and seal away the ancient horror she’s unearthed.
    Landing Party: Take down a group of deserters from the Zakuulan military hiding on Rakata Prime before they can finish building a new and improved Star Fortress with which to terrorize the galaxy.
    Divided We Fall: Infiltrate the hideout of a rogue Coruscant Security force and foil their plot to bomb the Republic Senate and incite war by framing the Alliance.
    Trial and Error: Assault a hidden space station laboratory where an experimental combat adrenal based on the Rakghoul plague is being developed and stop the vile substance’s spread before it can wreak havoc across the galaxy.

    Unlock all this and more with the new Galactic Command system when you reach Level 70 in the new expansion. From Uprisings to Dark vs. Light Battles, Knights of the Eternal Throne puts you in command of the galaxy!

    Stay tuned for more Game Updates to the Knights of the Eternal Throne Expansion: http://www.StarWarsTheOldRepublic.co...Throne/Updates

    Filler story through instances. I haven't tried any yet, but I would expect it to be better than the post 70 grind of the same content for RNG loot boxes with mediocre gear.

    So this is just hardmode for the already existing storyline?

    Disappointing update. About an hour of story content and a bunch of dailies, one of which is locked behind an in-game currency paywall (600 crystals to use a Walker). A lot of the content adds new bugs like sprint dropping when coming out of CS' or companions randomly disappearing when zoning.There is a new reputation to acquire with items locked behind it. You can get 2.5 levels in just under two hours, then your done for the week. The new in-game currency is crystals that drop at a decent rate, but it takes a large amount to purchase gear and items. They have added a system where you can trade crafting mats for crystals, but it's 12 mats for every 1 crystal, not even worth it.

    A little better on the deleted characters news. The last time they skimmed the servers, they deleted and/or removed the names of characters below 30. Made sure to level all my mains past that.
    Also, 52 per server? Shit, I have almost half of that.

    When they finish the betrayer storyline I'll come back and go through it.

    You can still do the whole thing solo right?

    you know i was just going to ask about this game. still playing it with my nephew, was wondering if there was any news about the return of many of the original MIA companions (Kira, Nadia, Andronokis etc). This would be a real nice incentive for me to give a rats about the ongoing story. old companions best companions.

    Used a random person's referral code to get my bi-annual 7 free days to catch up on the story. Only two chapters apparently released since I last played, kind of lame. But the story was okay. The new flash points were kind of underwhelming. I do like how they revamped the group finder que though.

    Apparently people are hacking in unranked PVP now openly, objectives are getting completed immediately as the match starts, people getting attacked the moment they leave their base. Because it's unranked BioWare doesn't seem to care. Fun.

    I can't imagine they have a big team working on this at all, most of which are probably focused on new story content and the like.

    On a side note, they have a promo going until Jan 15 for 1 payment of $19.99 you get all expansions, 1 month sub benefits, extra cartel coins, a mount and other misc stuff.

    Not bad imo if you're use to playing as founder and just want the next batch of content from whenever you played last (like me)

    So as I slowly near the eternal empire expansion and beyond with my nephew, can players from opposing alliances team up for story missons? Been thinking about ditching my jedi consular for my sith sorc to help hI'm along but I've never teamed up for story missions so not sure if opposing factions are still cocked blocked even though story says theyve untied to fight the throne etc

    YEAH THIS GAME STILL EXISTS

    Fall 2018 Roadmap: https://www.swtor.com/info/news/news-article/20180905

    5.10 "Jedi Under Siege" launches later this fall

    God mode raid difficulties added "even one mistake can lead to disaster"
    New daily areas
    Separate story lines for Republic and Imperial players
    "Ancient Jedi planet"--Republic players joined by familiar Jedi veteran (NOT REVAN) to protect base, Imperial players joined by infamous commando to destroy it
    More interface QOL improvements
    More guild improvements which won't matter because the few of us here play SWTOR foreveralone

    Some companions from the base game will return:
    Jedi Consular gets Nadia back
    Jedi Knight gets Doc back
    Sith Warrior will get dark side Jaesa back; Light side Jaesa is still MIA
