BioWare officially published the Ranked PvP Season 12 rewards for all SWTOR players, who qualify for the various tiers. At the end of the news post we also get a small hint at when Game Update 6.1.2 might be released
BioWare officially announced the tiers and rewards for the end of Ranked Season 12 of PvP in SWTOR. The season will end with the release of Game Update 6.1.2.
“The dust will soon settle, as Season 12 of Ranked PvP is slated to end in June with Game Update 6.1.2. Only a few weeks are left, so get in those final matches while you can! As this season wraps up, let’s look at the ratings breakdown, including a new win requirement to qualify for certain reward tiers. What tier did you reach?” – the official news article on swtor.com says.
As battle against exploits continue, the SWTOR developers tweak and improve the requirements for players to earn the top rewards at the end of the season.
Each rewards tier for SWTOR Season 12 has specific requirements. The rewards available are split into the already known tiers. To qualify for each one you need to earn a minimum target Rating for your solo and group activities as well as have a minimum number of matches won.
Below is the full breakdown of tears and rewards:
Bronze Tier
Solo Requirements: 1225 – 1299 rating and 25 wins
Group Requirements: 1250 – 1399 rating and 25 wins
- Bronze Season 12 Flair
- Bronze Season 12 Battle Flag
- Bronze Season 12 Decoration
- Bronze Season 12 Title – “(Playername) The Clever”
- 7,500 Ranked Tokens
Silver Tier
Solo Requirements: 1300 – 1499 rating and 50 wins
Group Requirements: 1400 – 1599 rating and 50 wins
- Silver Season 12 Flair
- Silver Season 12 Battle Flag

- Bronze Season 12 Title – “(Playername) The Clever”
- 15,000 Ranked Tokens

Group Requirements: 1600+ rating and 100 wins

Platinum Tier – Top 96 (Top 3 of each Advanced Class on the leaderboard)
Solo Requirements: 200 wins
Group Requirements: 200 wins
- Platinum Season 12 Flair
- Platinum Season 12 Title – “(Playername) The Cunning (Advanced Class)”
- 45,000 Ranked Tokens
- All previous tier rewards (not including token grants)
At the end of each season the new rewards are added to the Ranked PvP Vendors. Some items there are quite expensive and based on your earnings you might have to wait for more than one season to be able to afford some of them.
The Tokens you earn with each Tier listed above do not disappear and are not season-based. They remain yours. You can save up enough in the span of several season to purchase an item from the vendor that you could not get with the reward you earned in this season.
The new rewards for Season 12 include Replica Season 4 items (why replicas, BioWare?) and a new creature mount – Rombuk Mount.
If this beast has gained your attention, know that it will be discounted until the end of Ranked PvP Season 13.
If you are a seasoned PvPer, you might not enjoy the second part of the Season 12 “new” rewards. They are replicas of the Season 4 items. They look and function as the originals.
The good news for those old warriors among you, who earned their items back during Season 4, your only pride now remains that in the names of these items you will not see the word “Replica”.
Ranked PvP Season 12 will end in “a few weeks”, according to the official post on swtor.com. The article also promises that this will happen in June.
SWTOR Update 6.1.2 still has no release date announced. BioWare said that they are targeting June. Today is 11th and adding the “few weeks” on top of that means that we may not get the All Worlds Ultimate Swoop Rally event and the patch this month after all.
In my personal opinion the release date for Patch 6.1.2 is going to be 30th of June. BioWare tends to release updates on Tuesdays, as most other live service games and companies do. It’s a standard practice.
Optimistic date for 6.1.2 would be 23rd of June. If I have to go even deeper into the Rabbit Hole, I would guess a release date 30th that gets pushed a week or two into July.
It goes without saying that as soon as we have an official confirmation, VULKK.com will inform you of that right away.
The next Season, bearing the fatal number 13, will launch “later this Summer”.
BioWare announced that they will present all tiers and rewards at the start of the season this time around, instead of waiting until it’s almost over. That’s a good step, in my opinion.
