How to unlock the Daily Area
You can visit Yavin 4 by traveling to it from the Galaxy map. If you are low level, you will not be able to see and pick up any missions.
To unlock the Daily Missions, you need to complete the main Yavin 4 storyline. It is part of the Shadow of Revan era (update 3.0), which starts on Rishi and ends on Yavin 4. Most of the missions you do on Yavin 4 will later become repeatable dailies.
Players with active subscriptions will be able to access the daily and weekly missions on Yavin 4 without needing to have completed the story on their Legacy. This feature was introduced in Game Update 7.5.
Daily and Weekly Missions Overview
The main camp is in the Coalition Staging area, in the far right on the world map. The missions are also identical for Imperial and Republic players.
There are 6 daily missions available here – 4 given by NPCs and 2 on the Daily Mission Terminal.
There are 2 more daily missions available, located in the most western region, south of the Massassi Village. The Datapad that gives you the Hunters Hunted daily mission, is available in two different locations in the Temple Ruins, as shown on the interactive map above. Both will give you the exact same daily mission.
Next to the taxi and quick travel of the Temple Ruins, you will find an Operations Terminal offering you the group missions for Temple of Sacrifice and The Ravagers. Temple of Sacrifice is an endgame group operation that takes place here, on Yavin 4.
The maps below are interactive. You can navigate through the different layers to see parts of the world map in greater detail.
Recommended order and route
Start by picking up all daily solo missions from the main camp by talking to all NPCs as well as stopping by the Daily Mission Terminal. Don’t forget to pick up the [Weekly] Daily Area: Yavin 4 mission from the Mission Terminal as well.
The route shown on the map below is from the point of view of an Empire character. The description below provides instructions for a Republic character as well.
If you play for the Republic, you cannot quick travel directly to Prowler’s Trail, but you can easily start from the bottom, where the speeder for Republic is, and emerge from the top into the Training Grounds.
Time needed: 20 minutes
You can complete as many missions as you wish and in whatever order you prefer. Below, you will find the optimal route for fastest completion that will help you save time when you are in a “daily farm mode”.
- Prowler’s Trail and Verdant Swamp: Start Confederacy
The first area you visit is the Prowler’s Trail for Empire) or Verdant Swamp (for Republic), where you will start Confederacy.
- Tunnels to Training Grounds: Pushback
Next go through the tunnels over to the west to reach the Training Grounds and kill Lurkers for Pushback, then head into the middle tunnel again to spawn and kill the big lurker creature to finish that quest.
- Verdant Swamp | Prower’s Trail: Finish Confederacy
Travel south to the Verdant Swamp (Empire) or north to Prowler’s Trail (Republic) and finish Confederacy. Don’t leave the area before you have killed the 15 Jungle Creatures for the bonus quest (during XP and CXP events the bonus quests provide great reward for your time spent).
- Training Grounds: Finish Pushback
After that travel west through the southern tunnel to go back to the Training Grounds to finish Pushback if you haven’t done so yet.
- Training Grounds: Clearing the rest
Continue north through the Training Grounds to complete The Devoted Ones and Training Regimen, then stop by the most southern area of that zone for Chopping Block.
- Temple Ruins: Pick up 2 missions
Go to Sergeant Geiz to pick up Pathfinding, if you haven’t done so in the very beginning, and travel through the southern passage to the Temple Ruins, where you will pick up the Datapad to start Hunters Hunted.
- Temple Ruins: The Cave
Next move to the west to complete Atlas of History inside the cave right next to Sergeant Geiz, where you will also find more Stonereys for Pathfinding.
Following the pathway can grant you successful completion of all Daily Missions in 15-20 minutes. Of course, the timer doesn’t take under consideration grouping or having to wait for re-spawns, which may very well happen on a more populated server.
Completing 8 Daily Missions is the objective of the [Weekly] Daily Area: Yavin 4. On the Daily Mission Terminal in Coalition Staging (the main camp) you can also pick up 2 more Weekly missions:
- The Enemy Within – replay the final story mission from Shadow of Revan.
- Walking on Hallowed Grounds – defeat the world boss on Yavin 4 – the Revanite Walker.
