Droid Traits

  • New: every droid copy can carry one trait. Scan an equipped companion at a Trait Scanner Terminal to roll it.
  • 26 traits: 11 with Common, Gold, Diamond and Rainbow values, 5 Rainbow-only and 10 Iconic.
  • Each tier has a 25% chance. The trait is then picked evenly from the ones that droid can roll.
  • First scan: 5 to 200 Nova Crystals by rarity. Rerolls get more expensive each time, except on Iconics.
  • Iconic droids keep their trait through Super Rebirth. Super Rebirth screen: "Iconic Droid Unlocks" → "Iconic Droid Unlocks + Traits".
  • A Rainbow result is announced to the server.

Prices are in Nova Crystals. A non-Iconic reroll costs the base price times the rerolls made plus one. There is no reroll limit.

World Missions

  • Rank 1 bonus: Beskar Surge (150 s) → Galactic Surge (150 s)
  • Rank 2 bonus: Galactic Surge (150 s) → Stellar Surge (150 s)
  • Rank 3 bonus: Crafting Boost (300 s), unchanged
  • Rank 4 bonus: Stellar Surge (150 s) + Crafting Boost (300 s) → Kyber Surge (150 s) + Crafting Boost (300 s)
  • Gap between missions during Gonk-O-Ween: 30 minutes → 15 minutes. Missions start every 20 minutes instead of every 35 until Sunday, November 1, 2026 at 12:00 PM PST (8:00 PM UTC).
  • Missions still last 5 minutes. Outside that window the gap stays 30 minutes, and a Protocol event caps it at 10 minutes.
  • Mission complete screen: 4 → 10 seconds. It now ranks the top 6 players by mission progress, with an MVP.

Scourge Missions

Scourge Missions start Sunday, October 18, 2026 at 7:00 PM PDT (October 19, 2026, 2:00 AM UTC) and run until Sunday, November 1, 2026 at 7:00 PM PST (November 2, 2026, 3:00 AM UTC).

During this window the Scourge world loads and the four World Missions switch to Scourge versions and banners.

  • Mine Rocks: 40% of rocks are Scourge rocks with 500 health. Each gives 12 progress.
  • Eliminate Guards: Scourge guards give 8 progress (normal guards 5). Scourge elites give 20 (normal elites 15).
  • Defend Terminals: a Scourge KX gives 20 progress.
  • Fish For Scrap: 25% of catches are Scourge scrap, worth 34 progress.

WG-22 Rerun

Runs Saturday, October 17, 2026 at 7:00 AM PDT (2:00 PM UTC) to Saturday, October 17, 2026 at 7:00 PM PDT (October 18, 2026, 2:00 AM UTC) and Sunday, October 18, 2026 at 7:00 AM PDT (2:00 PM UTC) to Sunday, October 18, 2026 at 7:00 PM PDT (October 19, 2026, 2:00 AM UTC).

  • Rerun progress is saved under new keys. Stage progress, claimed stages and the repeatable Nova Crystal counter start from zero.
  • Hand in Gonks and Power Droids from your Lounge slots too. Talking to WG-22 opens a droid picker (5 per row, up to 3 rows).
  • Gonk Army boost: queued Gonk surges are cancelled and none queue during the boost, so the conveyor keeps its normal spawns.
  • Players who join within 300 seconds of the start still see the intro.
  • After the last window, everyone sees "Scourge Missions / Start Now" 18 seconds in, for 8 seconds.

Dawn of the Scourge

The event banner now carries the Dawn of the Scourge title. Goals, rewards, prices and instructions are not in this build.
