Arsenal, Loot and Warfront Update

Deadlier battlefields, stronger crafted weapons, exceptional treasure, expanded storage, and a towering new Imperial reinforcement.

Player storage

Pack for the long haul

Player inventories can now hold 500 items.
Personal bank safety-deposit boxes can now hold 1,000 items.
Existing character inventories and banks receive the new capacities when their character logs in.

Warfront escalation

Faction forces and aggressive dungeon and point-of-interest combatants now inflict substantially more damage and attack more accurately and rapidly.
These enemies receive triple HAM and an additional armor tier, capped at Heavy armor.
Defenders stationed at player-placed Imperial and Rebel faction bases receive the same deadly combat improvements.
Player-owned pets are excluded from the new enemy-only escalation.

Exceptional and legendary loot

Exceptional weapons now deliver dramatically greater damage and carry multiple weapon-appropriate skill modifiers.
Legendary weapons are stronger still, with additional high-value modifiers.
Both qualities may generate powerful damage-over-time effects, with Legendary weapons receiving the greatest chance and strength.
NPC loot scales with enemy level and now includes powerful weapons, holocrons, and broader rare rewards while ordinary junk drops are tremendously rarer.

Crafted combat

Conventional melee damage components now contribute the damage budget needed to compete with multi-component ranged weapon schematics.
Vibro units, reinforcement and sword cores, melee enhancements, and special organic melee components receive the new treatment.
Ranged weapon and lightsaber components remain outside this melee-only adjustment.

Resource industry

Newly crafted resource harvesters and power generators receive ten times their former extraction capability.
Their hopper storage is increased thirtyfold.
Factories and existing deeds or installations are unchanged.

Weapon tuning

Heavy Acid Rifles, Beam Rifles, and Plasma Flame Throwers now use medium armor piercing.
The SG82 Rifle now uses light armor piercing.
DE-10 Pistols now deal cold damage while retaining heavy armor piercing.
The Black Sun Executioner's Hack now uses heavy armor piercing.
The Black Sun Razor Knuckler now uses medium armor piercing.
Existing copies receive these mandatory properties as they load.

Crafting status

Both variants remain unavailable while safe shared-asset support is completed and verified.
