This is what Update 7.4 brings: Chains in the Darkness offers you some general improvements to the maps, the characters and the game, which you can read at least in English on the official website (via swtor.com).

We have briefly summarized for you here what larger content you can now expect in the game:

  • Kessan’s Landing: The new area on Ord Mantell offers you repeatable missions as a new daily area for new achievements and reputation rewards.
  • Side missions: New side missions present you with the task of assembling technology in different parts of the galaxy, which is very helpful in the new area
  • Lane Vizlas: New missions centered around droid history expert Lane Vizlas continue his story from Update 7.2
  • Video lighting: With Update 7.4, all cinematics will utilize a new character lighting system. Highlights of this system should include better and more detailed shadows.
  • Cartel market: The Cartel Market now promises you new items every week. Including a new armor set and Darth Nul’s double sword.

    • A fight against the new world boss should be worth it

    In addition to the innovations just mentioned, a new world boss awaits you in Kessan’s Landing with Update 7.4.

    The droid FR3-D0M makes life difficult in combat with burning plasma spots on the ground. But fighting him should definitely be worth it, because there is a chance that FR3-D0M will drop special loot.

    After defeating them, you could receive the Mantellian Separatist Hover Cannon, which serves as a unique means of transportation.
