Fishing Leaderboard and Elusive Fish
In September, we introduced the Fishing Leaderboard, Fishing Records, and Elusive Fish. The Fishing Leaderboard is a new in-game feature that keeps track of the leading individual, guild, and city anglers across each galaxy. The Fishing Record displays the type of fish caught, the planet on which it was caught, the length of the fish, the name of the angler (person who caught it), as well as the location, time and the bait used. There are only 70 ELUSIVE fish (one for each of the 70 non-collection fish types) for each galaxy.

Galactic Leaders Additions

Galactic Civil War City Invasions & Leaderboards - The GCW rages, pitting Rebels against Imperials in heated battles. Join with friends and fight in massive city invasions where controlling territories across each planet will put your faction in the lead. Plus, measure your dominance against other players via the new GCW Leaderboards.

Access the GCW Leaderboard from the War Terminal / War Intel Pad / War Table. It displays the top scores of the Galactic Civil War. Characters contribute to the character GCW Leaderboard by contributing to the GCW score as individuals or as members of a guild or citizens of a city.
