BioWare has revealed the in-game events returning to SWTOR in the month of March 2023: Swoop Racing and Rakghouls will keep you entertained this month!
February is the shortest month of the year and we only got two recurring events. March is a regular full month, yet we also get only two events from the roster of recurring events returning to SWTOR.
The All Worlds Ultimate Swoop Rally
It’s time once again to dust off your swoop bikes and ride the tracks on Dantooine, Onderon and Tatooine for glory and reputation. The All Worlds Ultimate Swoop Rally Guide is here to bring you up to speed on what and how you should do.
Date: March 7th – March 14th, 2023 (BEGINS AND ENDS AT 12:00PM GMT)
Requirement: Level 20+
In the growing shadow of war, swoop fans across the galaxy descend on Dantooine, Tatooine, and even Onderon for the sport’s biggest spectacle—The All Worlds Ultimate Swoop Rally! They’re packing the stands, eager to take their minds off their troubles and cheer their favorite swoop gangs. The bikers are here to take on dangerous challenge courses, show off their piloting skills, and flaunt their souped-up swoop bikes. The thunder of the engines, the deafening applause from the fans, the wind battering their helmets… there’s no bigger rush for these thrill seekers. Despite their reputation as wild rebels whose makeshift courses disregard local districting restrictions, swoop gangs aren’t a serious threat to anyone--something all true swoop fans know! They just love adrenaline-pounding speed, sweet jumps, and big explosions, and the All Worlds Ultimate Swoop Rally combines all three in one crowd-pleasing package. The biggest gangs on the circuit — Horizon’s Razor, the Pit Screamers, and the Blatant Beks — are ready to show their fans a great time.
FEATURED REWARDS:
- Swoop Rally Mounts (regular and gold versions)
- Swoop Gang Outfits
- Promotion Droid Mini-pets
- Various Stronghold Decorations
Rakghoul Resurgence on Tatooine
The Rakghouls are expected to surface once again on Tatooine near the end of March. It’s funny how we can predict these events, but can never actually stop them for good. Maybe it’s for the better. If we stop the Rakghouls once and for all, that would be one less event to farm stuff from…
Date: March 21st – March 28th, 2023 (BEGINS AND ENDS AT 12:00PM GMT)
Requirement: Level 25+
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 Tatooine. 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!

Something else!
On a more brighter note, I am proud to announce the arrival of VULKK.com’s in-depth step-by-step guides collection to the Datacrons in SWTOR. It’s been years since I made my videos. I admit, my narrations in some of them are a bit off, but… I was young D’OH! :)))
I am proud to present before you a nearly complete brand new collection of Datacron Locations Guides that is structured by planet and currently nearly 70% of the guides are completed and published.
This project is done in collaboration with Kal from TodayInTOR and I would like to thank him for the great work he has done and continues to do and for his endless passion and patience as he endured my extremely obsessive demands for how things should be structured and presented so that everything is in the familiar style of VULKK.com.
Each guide is incredibly detailed and uses the new Mini Map released with SWTOR 7.2, which perfectly compliments the presentation, if I may say so myself. The guides, of course, contain all the information you would ever need to obtain the datacrons. I am slowly adding a new version of the video walkthroughs with new pass on my narrations for each Galactic History Codex Lore with a bit less broken English than the 2016 version I recorded.
Shortly after we complete the Collection of guides, I will do an overhaul and update to the now ancient collective SWTOR Datacrons Guide. It needs more than just a refresh and will serve as a main portal for you to go through when you decide to do some Datacron hunting.
