Plenty to talk about this week with the deployment of Game Update 4.1, which includes Chapter X: Anarchy in Paradise, many crafting changes and a few most welcome quality of life improvements.

1. Introduction

2. Tip of the week

Congratulations to this week’s winner, Kuze! Thanks to Blay and Jessa’k for entering.

Blay’s videos demonstrating his tip in fights with Arcann can be found here and here.

Please send your tips to ootinicast@gmail.com by next Tuesday for a chance to win a Taunfawn or M8-3R droid code, courtesy of BioWare, and an OotiniCast-provided Cartel Market pack from the latest shipment.

3. Holofeed

• During a greatly extended downtime, Game Update 4.1: Anarchy in Paradise was deployed on Tuesday.
• There were some known issues, but many were resolved in Patch 4.1a which was deployed on Thursday.
• The Anarchist Alliance Pack is now available. Note that you can end up with two Grand Chance Cubes from the same pack!
• If you attempt a chargeback on a payment made to SWTOR (e.g., for your subscription or the purchase of Cartel Coins), your account (both SWTOR and Origin) will be permanently banned.
• Electronic Arts have issued their Form 10-Q Quarterly Report.
