the itemization system was the subject of pushback from the PTS testers, but the live system has been adjusted a bit. There’s a new character customization experience, the introduction of loadouts and Combat Styles, and a new itemization system. The level cap increases to 80, with all classes getting rebalanced. Legacy of the Sith arrives with extensive patch notes, with little of the game that isn’t touched by the update, anywhere from minor tweaks to massive overhauls.


What comes after that, we’ll have to find out. Ending on those questions and considerations, you’ll work to pursue Malgus.

Far from being a spoiler in itself, the trailer sets up some questions and asks the player to consider what is at stake, and what’s on the table with the Jedi and even the Sith, all the way to the Force and its role. By now, any SWTOR player is familiar with Malgus but the BioWare team clearly have found more story to tell here. It wouldn’t be a return of Malgus without his planning and manipulations.
