On Thursday, November 4, 2010, at 4:00 AM PDT all U.S. and European galaxies will be brought down for server maintenance and a Game Update. The servers are expected to be down for about 4 hours.

When the Hotfix is complete, all galaxies will be live but unavailable while we complete final testing. All galaxies will be made available after that time.

Star Wars Galaxies: Witches of Dathomir - Game Update 18.2

Highlights

• On the far edge of the galaxy lies the hostile planet known as Dathomir. It is inhabited by many aggressive beings, including the Witches of Dathomir, a group of Force-sensitive women who ride fearsome rancors. There are two key clans of the witches - a group of Darksiders calling itself the Nightsisters and the Singing Mountain Clan that follows the lighter side of the Force.

• The Nightsisters and Singing Mountain clans are at constant odds with one another - and with visitors who fail to show the proper respect. Visitors often find themselves siding with either side of the feud - benefiting from trade with these powerful indigenous creatures. Outcast clans continuously try their best to convince the visitors to work against the two main powers.

• Dathomir can only be accessed by special charter transports operated by skilled pilots. Its terrain is highly dangerous. In addition to the rancors, the witches are a constant threat on the planet.

• Upon their arrival on Dathomir, a representative for Omogg, a Drackmarian Warlord, greets brave explorers to warn them about the mysteries of the planet and the dangerous battle between the witch clans. From that point the visitors can start earning the trust of the Nightsisters or the Singing Mountain Clan.

• Which side will receive your loyalty?
