With Onslaught and Update 6.0 delayed until later October, BioWare has a few other things to offer us, the hungry for content players, while we wait. The Double Rewards event is now gone, but September will offer a couple of the regular occurring events to keep you entertained and busy farming currencies, reputation or… just having fun playing the game.
RAKGHOUL RESURGENCE ON ALDERAAN
The scary, but also somewhat cute monsters reappear in the end of August, this time on Alderaan. The Rakgroul Resurgence event offers a number of quests, a giant-ass world boss and some fun time down in the dark tunnels.
The Hyland Organization for Rakghoul Neutralization (T.H.O.R.N.) has issued an official level-2 emergency alert concerning an outbreak of the Rakghoul plague on Alderaan. Quarantines have been put in place to restrict traffic of the plague off-world, but exceptions will be made for individuals with priority clearance.|
T.H.O.R.N. is recruiting qualified volunteer emergency responders to travel to affected areas to combat the spread of the Rakghoul plague. More information about the outbreak can be found by checking the News Terminals on the Republic or Imperial Fleet!
T.H.O.R.N. wishes to remind you that plague symptoms can be treated if they are identified in the early stages of infection. Whether or not you have travel plans, please consult your nearest trusted medical supply droid and get vaccinated!
- Date: August 27 – September 3, 2019 (BEGINS AND ENDS AT 11:00AM PDT/6:00PM GMT)
- Requirement: Levels 25+
The rewards from this event are once again mostly coming from the reputation vendors in the Tunnels below the surface of Alderaan. I’ve always liked the armor set. To date it is one of my most favorite appearances for a female character (or a small male Agent one).
PIRATE INCURSION ON DANTOOINE
The newest event in the roster happens on Dantooine and is one of the most fun weekly events in my opinion. Or it could be simply because it’s very new still and I haven’t farmed it until tears start dropping :D
The remote planet Dantooine has been thrust into the center of escalating hostilities between the Galactic Republic and the Sith Empire. Spurred on in secret by covert Imperial forces, the Nova Blade pirates have staged an all-out attack on the pastoral Republic world. As the Republic scrambles to defend this key territory at the edge of Imperial space, the Empire plans to capitalize on the chaos and deal a major blow to the longtime Republic bastion.
- Date 1: September 10 – September 17, 2019 (BEGINS AND ENDS AT 11:00AM PDT/6:00PM GMT)
- Date 2: September 24 – October 1, 2019 (BEGINS AND ENDS AT 11:00AM PDT/6:00PM GMT)
- Requirement: Level 20+
The event features a large number of rewards, some coming from the Reputation vendors on Dantooine, others from completing certain objectives to earn an achievement.
