1. Introduction
2. Tip of the week
Congratulations to this week’s winner, Born to eat bacon! Thanks to Andarank and Caranome for entering.
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
- Game Update 4.6: The GEMINI Deception was deployed on Tuesday. There are a couple of known issues.
- If you encounter an issue that prevents you from completing Chapter 15, this workaround may help.
- The companion mission for adding Guss Tuno to your Alliance will not be in Game Update 4.6. This was due to an issue that could not be resolved in time.
- The contents of Cartel Packs are changing once more in Game Update 4.6, as well as getting more expensive.
- The Light Side vs Dark Side event is now live! Swtorista has created a list of the many achievements that are required for its 6 tiers of rewards. Note that event achievements may only be obtained on event characters, new characters created from 28 June when the event started. The achievements are not retroactive; having achieved these objectives in the past do not count.
- BioWare are considering increasing the maximum number of characters per server from 40 to 50, though at least for now hurdles remain that prevent this.
