The kit for CC-1119 "Appo" is revealed, categorizing him as a Dark Side Attacker and Clone Trooper. He is designed to synergize with Galactic Legend Lord Vader and other Dark Side Clone Troopers, including a summoned Knightfall Trooper. Appo's abilities focus on dispelling buffs, applying Damage Over Time, and granting buffs like Dramatic Entrance.

These Datacrons will support diverse squad compositions and have up to 15 levels, acquirable from Episode Shipments. Other updates include alphabetized titles, improved Datacron navigation, and a raised Datacron Currency cap.

A new raid is currently in early development. It is not expected to launch before June. The Naboo Raid will remain the featured raid until the new one is released.

Players are experiencing an issue where the last free tier of Conquest Ascension cannot be claimed. A temporary workaround has been provided while the development team investigates a fix for the problem.

A new Community Milestone Event is available, focused on earning rewards by spending Conquest Energy. The event features character shards for Darth Malgus, Maul, Queen Amidala, Luthen Rael, and the new Conquest character Jocasta Nu, along with Datacrons, Data-cache Currency, and Deboss materials across five milestones.

This post answers player questions about the upcoming Conquest character, Jocasta Nu. Key points covered include her role as a "lifter" unit, her three omicrons (active in Grand Arenas), interactions with protection and debuffs, and details on her transformation mechanics.

Jocasta Nu, a new Galactic Republic Jedi Attacker, is revealed as a Conquest lifter. She transforms into Jocasta Nu (Rifle) and features a new Jedi Vanguard faction tag, along with unique abilities like a rifle throw for a last-ditch effort and setting enemy health to 65.

This update introduces Batcher's kit and makes Huyang farmable from Light Side 3-F Hard. STAP is now an accelerated character. Adjustments were made to the Naboo Raid, and several bug fixes were implemented, including one for GL Ahsoka's Defiant Resolve.

Adjustments have been made to the Naboo Raid. The Command Droid's special ability now starts on cooldown, with its cooldown reduced to 2 turns. The Command Droid can no longer gain bonus turns from the Charged modifier, and a status effect now tracks its special ability cooldown.

Today's update announces the new Galactic Legend Ahsoka Tano, Datacron set 19, a new monthly calendar, and changes to the Hyperdrive Bundle. It also fixes multiple bugs, including issues with The Scimitar, Master Qui-Gon, General Syndulla, and Queen Amidala. Bo-Katan (Mand'alor)'s Journey Guide is now permanently available.

Episode 2 character shards will focus on Hunter, Wrecker, Tech, Echo, Omega, Ahsoka Tano (Fulcrum), Saw Gerrera, Nightsister Zombie, and Ezra Bridger.

Meathead clarified the layered make-good compensation by noting that the awarded points would push a good portion of players up five levels on the Conquest Free Track. He framed this as a solid outcome despite confusion about make-goods stacking on make-goods.

Meathead told players they would hit the 600M mark by the end of the current Conquest. When asked if 600M was the final goal, he confirmed it was the goal for this round, suggesting the community event was scoped to that target.
