Here is everything you need to know about this update before and after its release.
PATCH NOTES
Below you can see the full changelogs for the big update 5.8 as well as all the smaller bug fixes and additional patches that were released between 5.8 and 5.9. I have video overview for the bigger ones as well. It’s available at the bottom of this post here as well as in the respective posts with the patch notes.
GUIDES LIST
The update introduced major changes to the Galactic Conquest game system and that provoked, of course, a new guide. In it I have included absolutely all the information you need, regardless if you have been doing Conquest for years or are just learning about its existence.
As it has become a tradition, we also had two more classic companions returning with unique missions, only available to specific classes. Each mission features a short cinematic cutscene with a few dialogue options for you to choose from.
The long-awaited Arcann romance was also a part of 5.8 and you can now accept or reject Arcann’s true feelings.
