SWGOH news: fleet

The latest SWGOH update introduces Rey (Dark Side Vision) and Huyang, alongside a new Loyalty Program event starting November 21st. Kelleran Beq is now accelerated, and Shin Hati - Dark Side is available in Hard Mode. Punishing One is now farmable.

Star Wars: Galaxy of Heroes is celebrating its 9th anniversary from November 18 to November 24 with various in-game activities. Players can expect double drops for multiple battle types and an anniversary inbox gift containing various materials and character shards. Special crystal offers will also be available in-game and via webstore.

MeatheadMilitia gave soft positive signals on two long-standing QoL asks: simmable Fleet Mastery events and a Bronzium data card sim button. Neither is a commitment, but both were acknowledged as live internal topics.

MeatheadMilitia confirmed a backend server update on 2024-11-13 that converts daily energy spend into conquest tickets. He reported personally hitting the 600 ticket threshold without effort, and said the related coaxium webstore changes will go live later that day.

Star Wars: Galaxy of Heroes is introducing a new 12-week Era and 4-week Episode structure for character releases and events. Daily Activities become Daily Quests, and a new Episode Track with Free and Paid tiers offers rewards. Several events are becoming simmable.

Meathead said one of the better solutions for the Fleet Arena top-rank complaint is to remove crystals from Fleet Arena entirely and put them somewhere else. He also forwarded a detailed player proposal for tiered per-win Fleet Arena rewards with a daily cap, after rewriting the language, and confirmed it has its own internal Google document.

This update introduces Baylan Skoll, makes Marrok available in Chromium Packs, and adds Great Mothers to Cantina 8-E. IG-12 is now accelerated, and Galactic Legend tickets are no longer lost on a battle loss. Several bug fixes are included, and a known issue regarding TIE Dagger's ability description is noted.

A player inquired if Capital Games would refund resources for Sith Assassin following the Dagger update, drawing a parallel to the Malak release which diminished Sith Assassin's utility after players were encouraged to upgrade her for Darth Revan teams. MeatheadMilitia confirmed there would be no refunds for players who had relic'd the character.

The TIE Dagger's "Eradicate the Weak" crew ability has been updated with two changes. Max Protection gain per Sith ally was increased from 20% to 40%, and a new effect was added to prevent enemy Dark Side Ships from gaining Turn Meter if the allied Capital Ship is Sith.

A developer confirmed a Quality of Life (QoL) update is coming to SWGOH. However, they clarified it's a small, single-item change that will personally make them happy, not a broad improvement like mod management or fleet arena adjustments. The community had been speculating about a larger QoL update based on an earlier passing comment.

Capital Games has reviewed Executor vs. Leviathan fleet matchups, finding a specific Executor fleet overperforming against a Leviathan build optimized for mirror matches. No direct changes to Punishing One are planned. Instead, TIE Dagger will receive buffs to improve its performance in Leviathan mirror matches and against Executor/Punishing One fleets.

Capital Games is aware that Executor fleets with Punishing One are beating Leviathans in Fleet Arena. An investigation is underway to determine if any action is needed regarding these matchups.

This update makes Captain Enoch shards farmable from Light Side 8-C Hard and Shin Hati available in Chromium Packs. The Punishing One event begins tomorrow. Several bugs were fixed, including Executor's Ultimate cooldown from Breach and a Gungan Boomadier turn-meter issue. The Shield Generator summoned by Boss Nass now displays its 1 Health and clarifies it has no Protection.

The content creator shared details on the Punishing One ship packs available, noting two main booster offers. Players can choose between a 10x pack for 10,825 crystals or a 10x+2 pack for 12,990 crystals, with the latter offering a slight crystal saving and more chances for high shard drops.

The Star Wars: Galaxy of Heroes developer post reveals the abilities of the new ship, Punishing One. Key features include inflicting Deathmark, stealing Stealth, out-of-turn attacks, and bonuses when deployed with Bounty Hunter allies.

The October 2024 in-game event calendar has been announced. Dengar is the daily login character. The calendar details Omega Events, Assault Battles, Mythic Events, Fleet Mastery, Territory Battles, and Territory Wars for the month.

The update on September 4, 2024 introduces Great Mothers with a bespoke Datacron. Fixes address Saw Gerrera's "Set Explosive Trap," Bo-Katan's ability description, Ahsoka Tano (Fulcrum) targeting in Territory Wars, and Admiral Raddus's interaction with Darth Vader. A known issue with missing audio for Great Mothers and Nightsisters is being investigated.

Capital Games introduced a new Mercenary tag, outlining its purpose and how it differs from Bounty Hunters. Three new characters, Baylan Skoll, Shin Hati, and Marrok, will launch with this tag. The update also provided early details on Galactic Legend Ahsoka Tano and Dengar's ship, The Punishing One.

The September 2024 calendar of events has been released, detailing various game activities. Daily login units for September are Bastila Shan and Bastila Shan (Fallen). The post outlines dates for Omega Events, Assault Battles, a Mythic Event, Fleet Mastery, Territory Battles, and Territory Wars.

This update introduces Luthen Rael, makes Captain Rex an accelerated character, and adds Padawan Obi-Wan to Chromium Packs. Gungan Phalanx shards are now farmable from Fleet Battles 4-D Hard, replacing Bad Batch Omega, which moves to Galactic War Shipments. A bug fix addresses Boss Nass's Shield Generator, and Mon Mothma's Field Promotion ability has been adjusted.
