The Outer Rim - Crafting & Resources Update

By Doc Holliday — July 24, 2026

A big batch of updates is now live, headlined by a brand-new crafting and resources hub on the website. Website - Crafting & Resources - New Crafting menu on the website - browse live resources, schematics, and creatures without logging into the game. - Resource pages show current stats and where each resource is spawning, plus a peak-concentration waypoint you can send to yourself in-game to head straight for the richest deposit. - Resource Alerts - pick the resources and stats you care about and get an in-game mail the moment a matching resource spawns. - Schematic Finder - look up which schematics use a given resource, and exactly what each schematic needs. - Save and manage your own recipes under My Recipes. - Crafting tools added: loot, slicing, damage, and repair simulators. - Refreshed look across the whole site.

By Doc Holliday — July 21, 2026

Vehicles - The Mustafar Panning Droid is much faster now - its top speed has roughly doubled and it accelerates harder, making it a far more practical ride. Character Creation - Talz and Hutt characters now receive their full set of profession starting items - survey device, crafting tool, starting weapon and the rest - when created, just like every other species. Housing & Deeds - House deed schematics found as loot were displaying as a landspeeder when examined. They now correctly show the house they build.

R.I.S. pieces you already own keep their current stats. Species - Fixed custom playable species created before their racial bonuses existed not receiving their species skill.

Travel - A fast-travel network is now open on Yavin 4 - speak to the travel droid at the Tansarii shuttleport. Routes unlock as you earn the moon's exploration badges.

The Outer Rim - Bounty Hunter & Attachment Update

By Doc Holliday — June 26, 2026

A new batch of Bounty Hunter improvements and a Skill Enhancement Attachment overhaul is now live. Bounty Hunter - Your special attacks now work with any ranged weapon, instead of being locked to specific weapon types - use the blaster you actually want. - Spray Shot now intimidates your target. - Bounty Seeker Droids are far more reliable at tracking down their target. - Novice Bounty Hunter can now be learned with Master Marksman OR Master Brawler (alongside Scout: Exploration IV) - take whichever combat path you prefer into the profession.

It hands out bounty missions of any level, so you no longer have to roam the galaxy to find one. - Large (Rank 5) cities now support up to 30 skill trainers. Skill Enhancement Attachments - Looted attachments now show their bonus right in the name - for example, "[CA] Rifle Accuracy +18 Attachment" - so you can tell at a glance what you picked up. - Each attachment now carries a single, focused skill bonus. - Cleared several non-functional modifiers out of the attachment pool. - Added Flame Thrower accuracy and speed attachment bonuses. Loot - Fixed and adjusted loot drops.

The Outer Rim - Structures, Buffs & Convenience Update

By Doc Holliday — June 26, 2026

A new batch of quality-of-life and convenience features is now live. Structures & Housing - Lots are now pooled across your entire account. All of your characters share a single 60-lot allowance, so you can pour everything into one builder or spread structures across your alts - however you like to play. - Every character on your account is now automatically an owner/admin of any structure placed by your other characters. Enter, manage, pay maintenance on, or redeed each other's buildings freely. Doctors - Buff Droids - Doctors can now turn a surgical droid into a personal buff vendor. Load it with enhancement packs and it will dispense stat buffs to players - with a barker to advertise, bonuses for Master Doctors, battle-fatigue scaling, wound healing, and even food and drink buffs. Entertainers - A single performer now grants all three mind enhancements (Mind, Focus, and Willpower). One dancer or one musician is now enough for the full set - you no longer need both. Guilds - New Guild Control Device - a portable datapad item that lets you manage your guild from anywhere, no guild hall terminal required. - Guild member lists are now sorted alphabetically. - You no longer need to be within 32 meters to sponsor a new guild member. Mission Terminals - Mission terminals now let you choose both the difficulty of a mission and the direction it sends you - match missions to your level and your destination. Travel - The /board range has been raised to 80 meters - board shuttles and transports from much farther away. - Shuttleports now offer interplanetary travel - hop between planets from any shuttleport, not just the big starports. - Starport departure waits have been shortened. Website - A public Roadmap is now live on the portal - see everything that's shipped and what's planned next.
