What are Dynamic Encounters?
Dynamic Encounters are short planetary mission in SWTOR that you can stumble upon while you’re out questing. Everyone can see all currently available Dynamic Encounters on all maps, and anyone can complete them, though they’re only available for a set time. As old events expire, new ones become available.
Progress Sharing Explained
The vast majority of Dynamic Encounters have Group Shared progression. If you’re in a group doing that Encounter together, progress is shared within the group. Otherwise, it’s an individual mission.
Encounter Shared means that progress is shared across everyone in the vicinity of the Dynamic Encounter. These are less common and have multiple stages.
Objective Types
Each Dynamic Encounter falls into 1 of 5 categories in terms of what type of gameplay objectives you’ll need to satisfy to complete said encounter: Combat, Clicking, Hybrid, Champion, Battle. Those are not official terms, but they are mostly recognized through dileniations in the achievements.

Notable Dynamic Encounters on Korriban
These Dynamic Encounters are either a bit tricker than average or offer some sort of unique reward. Bolded entries are not necessarily on this list.
Never a K’loring Day
The K’lor’slug Swarmers and Broodmothers from “Never a K’loring Day” have a chance to drop the Killik Stalker Larva minipet.
Korriban Dynamic Encounter Achievements
Despite existing on planets, Dynamic Encounter achievements are listed under their own category rather than as a new subcategory on each planet in the Location section. On each planet, you get an achievement for doing the following:
- Completing each Dynamic Encounter for the first time
- Completing all Dynamic Encounters in each region
- Completing all Dynamic Encounters across the planet
- Completing number 5 ▶ 15 ▶ 30 Dynamic Encounters on a given planet
Once you get all of these achievements on a given planet, you get the meta-achievement that comes with a mount that can carry a minipet of your choosing.
Many Dynamic Encounters also have individual achievements associated with them, some of which are hidden. Below, we have tips on how to complete each encounter-specific achievement and reworded their objectives so you know what you have to do.
Korriban features 2 encounter-specific achievements:
Achievement Name | Requirement | Region |
---|---|---|
Willing Participant | Inject yourself with all 3 serums in The Perfect Opportunity | Lower Wilds |
Horrible Little Guys | Wrangle all 3 named K’lor’slugs in Incubation Miscalculation | Sith Academy |
Willing Participant
In the second part of the encounter The Perfect Opportunity, target yourself and activate each of the abilities on your temporary ability bar. You have to wait until the debuff falls off before you can apply another one.
Horrible Little Guys
In the encounter “Incubation Miscalculation”, there are 3 named K’lor’slugs in specific locations throughout the Sith Academy. The respawn time is several minutes, and you only get credit if you Wrangle them, so don’t kill them!
Fronk Location
Fronk is located behind a desk and some containers in the square room north of the Cantina on the first floor of the Sith Academy.
Snippy’s Location
Snippy is located behind some plasteel tech barrels on the third room from the left facing the north side of the second floor of the Sith Academy.
Toothface’s Location
Toothface is located on the second floor in the library connected to the Sith Inquisitor Speeder Piloting Trainer.
All Korriban Dynamic Encounter Unique Rewards
There are several rewards that you can only get for completing Dynamic Encounters on Korriban.
Zelthian Highland Brig
You receive the Zelthian Highland Brig mount for completing Encounter Mastery: Korriban, which you receive after completing each unique Dynamic Encounter and 30 total Dynamic Encounters on Korriban.
Zelthian is a new speeder manufacturer introduced with the Dynamic Encounters on starter planets. The speeder features a carriage for your active ground-based pet.
Killik Stalker Larva Minipet
The Killik Stalker Larva minipet can drop from the K’lor’slug Swarmers and Broodmothers you fight during the encounter “Never a K’loring Day”. You can also buy | sell this minipet on the GTN.
Decorations
Unlike Dynamic Encounters on the other 3 starter planets, there are no stronghold decorations associated with encounters on Korriban, likely because it’s the only starter planet that gets a pet instead.
