v1.7.0 Live Update
[Completed] The v1.7.0 update is live. Update your client through the launcher before you log in.
What's New
New profession and systems
- Merchant profession: a profession built around trade, vendors, industrial harvesting and a hired retinue. Read the Merchant Player Guide.
- Dynamic Quest campaigns: the five story campaigns (Rogue CorSec, The Dune Cartel Threat, The Swamp Syndicate, Cantina Conspiracy and Dearic Free Trade) are now enabled. Each unlocks automatically when you reach its level. Progress is saved, rewards are paid once, and escort and defend objectives are more reliable. See Dynamic Quest Campaigns Overhaul and Quest Waypoint and Relog Fixes.
- City Contract Boards and City Reputation: 27 repeatable contracts on boards at the starport and cantina of Coronet, Mos Eisley and Theed (two boards per city), with a standing tier in each city and a new Reputation tab on your Character screen. See City Contract Boards and City Reputation.
Loot and rewards
- Rare Loot System: a daily limit on Rare Loot Chests and a weekly ceiling, so chest rewards stay rare and worthwhile. See Rare Loot System (RLS) - Updates & Fixes.
- Planetary discovery caches, an expanded RLS including the new HRLS, and credit chip crates are now part of the loot mix.
- Custom paintings: another batch of decorative paintings joins the collection. See Custom Decorative Paintings.
Quality of life
- Configurable XP rates and the droid battery indicator are now live. See Configurable XP Rates & Droid Battery Indicators.
- Han Solo tutorial dialogue now covers new Merchant and Droid Commander characters.
Fixes
- Entertainer inspiration buff now applies correctly.
- Campsites keep their state properly between visits.
- Jedi Premonition now works for Jedi and Sith characters.
