Exploring back into the galaxy far, far away is always exciting. When you think you’ve seen everything STAR WARS: The Old Republic has to offer, the team at BioWare surprises us with some delightful tweaks and fixes. Whether you’re an old Jedi or just starting your journey in this universe, these updates will improve your gameplay experience.
This time, we’ve got some nifty adjustments in Game Update 7.6b that should make your adventures even smoother. Let’s take a closer look at what’s been changed. Think of it as unwrapping a present; surprises might lurk inside!
Patch Notes
- Fixed an issue that caused the pillars and their shadows to appear invisible in the Soa encounter in the Eternity Vault Operation.
- First of Many and First Among Veteran titles: Kai Zykken’s MK-85 Log Mount will now be granted to players who completed these Achievements on the Public Test Server upon next log in.
- The Stronghold Conquest Bonus is now calculated properly. More details can be found here.
As per the developer:
Hey everyone,
The fix for the Stronghold Conquest Bonus issue will be going out in Game Update 7.6b. I do want to provide some background into this particular issue as the “reverting a change” I referred to last week means that a previous bug will be reintroduced once the change goes live with 7.6b.
The first bug we were aiming to fix was the Stronghold Conquest Bonus not applying to the Daily Log In Rewards. When that fix went out with 7.6, that caused the issue that we’re seeing reported in this thread.
With 7.6b, we are rolling back that initial fix which will correct the Stronghold Conquest Bonus % being granted, but players will see the Daily Log In bug happen again. A fix for that will be coming in a future patch.
All that said, 7.6b will be coming tomorrow morning.
Thanks!
If you’ve ever been caught off guard by those pesky invisible pillars during battles with Soa, you’ll appreciate this fix! Those little things really affect our gaming experience, like finding an extra chocolate chip cookie hidden behind a jar.
The introduction of Kai Zykken’s MK-85 Log Mount is equally exciting! For those who managed to snag those achievements previously on the Public Test Server, it’ll feel like receiving a golden ticket when you log back in. There’s something special about showing off unique mounts, it adds a personal touch to your character’s journey.
I also love that they’ve already addressed issues with Stronghold Conquest Bonuses being calculated correctly. Nothing beats knowing that hard work is rightly rewarded! You can find even more info if you’re curious about all the details above.
