Reputation Track
The Dantooine Crash Site, released with SWTOR Update 7.8, added a new Reputation Track you can scale. The Galactic Sustainability Institute (a subsidiary of Galactic Solutions Industries) is a shared between both factions and across your entire legacy.
You can find it in your Legacy window, under the Reputation tab in the top left:
Unlike any other Reputation, you get a new title for almost every rank you gain:
| Imperial Title | Rank | Republic Title |
|---|---|---|
| – | Outsider | – |
| Imperial Research Greenhorn | Newcomer | Republic Research Greenhorn |
| Imperial Research Friend | Friend | Republic Research Friend |
| Imperial Research Hero | Hero | Republic Research Hero |
| Imperial Research Champion | Champion | Republic Research Champion |
| Imperial Research Legend | Legend | Republic Research Legend |
Where to find the vendor
The Reputation Vendor, GSI Material Support, is located at the Research Camp, the starting map of the Dantooine Crash Site.
To get there, select Dantooine on the Galaxy Map, then pick the Dantooine Crash Site destination.
Reputation Vendor Items List
The vendor sells generally two types of items: a type that unlocks parts of your Dantooine Farmstead Stronghold, and parts that give you various boosts and unlock new features in the three biomes of the Dantooine Crash Site.
While standard cosmetic items (armor, weapons, mounts, decos, etc.) are typically sold by the reputation vendor, this time, those rewards are dropped by enemies in the field and given as rewards for completing secret achievements.
The unique nature of this reputation results from the unique nature of the content. It’s kind of like a daily area, which use a Reputation system, but Dynamic Encounters are the core gameplay, and those don’t have Reputation tracks.
The table below is interactive. You can search, filter and sort it to find the item you need. Below the table, you will find previews of the items.
