SWGOH news: relic

Zeb Orrelios (New Republic Pilot) shards are now farmable from Cantina Battles 9-F, and Vane joins the Accelerated List. Next Galactic Legend Mando relic requirements are listed. Fixes cover Leia (Jedi Training), Asajj Ventress, Marrok, Territory Battle Pirates, Hondo, and Daughter of Mortis.

This update accelerates Depa Billaba, makes Cinta Kaz farmable, and includes numerous bug fixes and adjustments. Changes address ability functionality for multiple characters, correct display issues, and update datacron effects.

A new Questline has been added to improve the Returning User Experience, providing short, mid, and long-term goals for returning players. Quality of Life updates include batch upgrading for Relic levels and a new warning message in Territory Battles for platooning characters used in Special Missions.

Players pushed back that Ezra received a large refund while Merrin only received an omicron refund, with calls extending to Asajj as well. The community manager confirmed the decision was made above his level but said he is logging the feedback and a request for further explanation.

Upcoming kit changes update Gungan Phalanx's Omicron to Territory Wars with reduced values, gate Ezra Bridger (Exile)'s power behind a full Spectre squad with a kit rework, give GL Ahsoka counterattack True damage and Blind immunity, and restrict Merrin's Omicron to matches without Galactic Legends. Relic and Omicron investments on affected units will be reset and refunded.

A May the 4th celebration includes daily rewards, a web store calendar, a large inbox gift with shards, omicrons, zetas, and credits. Special crystal deals, returning and new Lightspeed Bundles, and bonus drop events are also available. A packed schedule of Era Assaults and Assault Battles runs from May 4th to May 18th.

The May the 4th update introduces Cantina 2.0 with visual and content overhauls for Campaigns and Mods. Era system changes include increased levels, currency, and Relic conversion. Loaned Units will be added to Coliseum, and future updates will bring Overcharge, Era Arena, and a Training Mode replacing Squad Arena.

A suggestion was made to MeatheadMilitia to add Relic 8 (R8) and Relic 9 (R9) materials to the era currency shop. He indicated that he believes he has made this suggestion before and will either check on its status or add it to the list of community suggestions.

MeatheadMilitia confirmed the 4-LOM omicron was active in modes beyond its intended location, which is why some players felt it was hitting unexpectedly hard alongside Aphra and IG-90. The team is fixing it, and players are encouraged to file a bug report on the forum.

A hotfix will address an issue in Conquest where the Relic Level Delta was enabled without its intended Data Disk, which will now be added as a feat reward. It also corrects discrepancies in the Cassian Journey Guide, providing materials to level Dedra from 40 to 45 due to incorrect Tier 1 requirements.

A player asked why extra-era characters in marquee events are now lower level. MeatheadMilitia asked for full details over DM so he could pass the report along while stepping away.

Today's SWGOH update makes IG-90 shards farmable from Cantina Battles 8-A. The update also addresses various character bugs, including issues with Stormtrooper Luke, IG-90, Krennic, Crosshair, Paploo, Satele, Maul (Hate-Fueled), Kleya, Corrupted Translation, Luthen, and Grand Master. Several description updates and Conquest-related fixes are also included.

Developer updates confirm the arrival of R9 in two weeks, a fix for 3v3 GAC Omicron issues in mid-March with reimbursements, a planned redo of the Knightfall event, and compensation for affected Coaxium Heist players.

The Era of Andor introduces Quality of Life changes, including reduced early Era Level requirements for Marquees and temporary removal of high-tier material bundles. Coliseum summoned units will scale based on the highest Era unit and vary by leader. Era Challenges will feature a 4-Feat system, and a roadmap for Cassian Andor (Undercover) progression is provided.

This update addresses several character availability changes, bug fixes, and text corrections. Key changes include making News Chewie and Yoda available on December 16th, moving Rogue One blueprints to Light Side Battles 7-B, and correcting ability descriptions for Ezra Exile and Galactic Legend Ahsoka Tano. A rerun of Knightfall is also scheduled.

This update addresses several issues including Commander Luke Skywalker's Journey Quest, Coliseum Leaderboard payouts, and the ship tutorial. It also adjusts Relic Amplifier levels for loaned units and enemies in various Journey Guide events, notably for Ahsoka Tano and Hondo Ohnaka.

The developers clarify details about the new Era system in Star Wars: Galaxy of Heroes. They address how new characters will be acquired and geared, the obtainability of Era materials, and the costs associated with Relic Amplifier Level 10. They also touched on the usability of faction-specific LSTs and the future of existing game modes.

Star Wars: Galaxy of Heroes is introducing a foundational overhaul to celebrate its 10th anniversary. This includes a new seasonal structure called Eras, which isolates new content and units to enhance progression and introduce new game modes like Coliseum and Era Challenges. Significant changes to the Relic economy and Lightspeed Tokens are also part of this update.

The new unit Zuckuss is a Dark Side Tank, Leader, Bounty Hunter, Scoundrel, and Unaligned Force User. His kit heavily features the Foresight buff, with synergies for 4-LOM and Dark Side Bounty Hunters. He can be unlocked via a Marquee event starting November 4th.

A new limited-time event, "Coven of Shadows," is launching on October 31st. It features three tiers with escalating difficulty and rewards, requiring Padawan Sabine Wren and Galactic Legend Ahsoka Tano to defeat Morgan Elsbeth and her forces. The event will recur monthly.
