SWGOH news from Discord

A player reported a bug where Boomadier cannot swap turn meter with a dazed Gungan character. MeatheadMilitia acknowledged the report and asked if it had been submitted to Answers HQ, suggesting it is a known issue or a valid bug report.

MeatheadMilitia stated he is currently focused on mod farming in Star Wars: Galaxy of Heroes, admitting he is "severely behind" in this area. He was asked directly what he has been farming. His response indicates a personal catch-up effort.

A list of new Data Disks and Feats for the current Conquest season was published. This list was initially an oversight due to the creator's workload. The provided link specifies only the new additions, not the complete list of all available disks and feats for the season.

A community manager expressed approval for several player-suggested quality-of-life improvements, including the ability to upgrade abilities fully at once, multi-filter sorting for character rosters, and increased rewards from various game modes. These suggestions aim to streamline gameplay and enhance the value of player effort and participation across different events.

The content creator confirmed that internal conversations are ongoing regarding the quest reward discrepancy following a recent reset, which resulted in non-Hyperdrive Bundle players receiving additional items while HDB players did not. No further details could be shared at this time. This issue centers on whether non-HDB players received an unintended benefit or if HDB players were unfairly excluded.

The development team is aware of an issue with Conquest Hard Mode, specifically concerning the 5-key requirement for Sector 3 feats. Additionally, the "Ahsoka Tano to 2-star" quest, which many veteran players cannot complete, is a recurring bug that has resurfaced.

A recent update caused veteran SWGOH players to receive "new player" quests, granting significant shard shop currency. This occurred because level requirements were removed from older quests. Players who purchased the Hyperdrive Bundle did not receive these quests due to an intentional block.

The SWGOH PC client open beta will not launch in June, as confirmed by MeatheadMilitia. He also clarified that users need to match their EA App email with their Web Store email to use the PC client.

MeatheadMilitia stated there is no new information available regarding the release date for the SWGOH PC client. He committed to posting updates on the forums once information becomes available.

MeatheadMilitia is investigating potential benefits or compensation for long-time players who were level 85 before the May 22 changes, acknowledging a user's concern about what the new player experience adjustments offer veterans.

MeatheadMilitia expressed agreement that recent adjustments to the new player experience in SWGOH are positive, particularly with the upcoming full PC client launch. He also indicated that the early guild system is on the developers' radar for potential improvements.

MeatheadMilitia stated, "Always be farming Mods," highlighting the persistent importance of mod acquisition in Star Wars: Galaxy of Heroes. This advice serves as a fundamental recommendation for players focusing on character optimization and overall squad strength.

MeatheadMilitia, a SWGOH content creator, responded to a comment about a lack of teasers for the next Conquest character by suggesting he may have already provided one. This indicates that the community might have overlooked an earlier hint, or that the tease was subtle enough to be missed.

MeatheadMilitia expressed high regard for Commander Luke Skywalker (CLS), stating that CLS is a "King" and a "great character and team" in Star Wars: Galaxy of Heroes. He noted that CLS will always hold a special place in his heart, suggesting sustained relevance and affection for the character.

In response to a query about the frequency of "RA" (likely referring to Raid Analytics or a similar game feature), the content creator hinted that an update or change is "soon," though they emphasized that this "soon" should be taken with a significant grain of salt, possibly extending into late 2024.

A guild member experiencing a discrepancy in QA shards, where the displayed crate color did not match the backend amount received, was advised to report the issue through official customer service channels and the Answers HQ forums. The content creator cannot directly investigate such backend data discrepancies.

A recent hotfix in SWGOH primarily addressed a bug that prevented Android users from purchasing packs. This was the main focus of the update, with no other significant changes mentioned.

MeatheadMilitia encountered a PC client error requiring prior game access on the EA App, a problem also reported by other users for different EA games. He sought to resolve the issue, suggesting he might be able to provide client access to helpful players.

MeatheadMilitia confirms that no new information regarding the upcoming raid will be released today. This addresses player impatience and clarifies the immediate content release schedule for the game.

A second wave of invitations for a secret Star Wars: Galaxy of Heroes playtest has been extended. Although official emails have not yet been sent, players are advised to check their EA Apps directly to see if they were selected to participate in this private testing phase.
