On Tuesday, December 14, 2010, at 4:00 AM PST all U.S. and European galaxies will be brought down for server maintenance and a Game Update.

Star Wars: 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. There are two key opposing clans of the witches - The Nightsisters and the Singing Mountain Clan. Which side will receive your loyalty? Galaxies - The Witches of Dathomir
Wookiee Life Day: The celebration of Wookiee Life Day has begun. Traditionally celebrated on the Wookiee home world Kashyyyk, Wookiee Life Day is a time to reflect on the renewal of life and to remember those who have passed on. Wookiees greatly value morality, courage, compassion and loyalty. As part of this sacred and ancient Wookiee tradition is that of the honor family. An honor family comprises a Wookiee's closest friends and companions. These family members pledge a commitment to lay down their lives for one another as well as members of any honor families these individuals may have.

Fix issue where some no trade removable items become no trade after transfer. The fix is retroactive. Existing bugged items will correctly become no trade removable with the fix.
Miscellaneous
The wearable Whip Belt is no longer called a hat in its description.
I completely agree. These days I am far from bored, and I can't play long enough to do all the stuff I want to do. Still haven't completed half of the old content and they bring new...
Funny bug in the beginning was (fixed after an hour or so): When you called the snowspeeder ITV, the new TCG-loot ITV appeared. Ppl in heroics chat complained about it, they should have been grateful to be able to see it before even one got it as a card (TCG was still down at this time).
Anyway, we will have some fun in the holidays. Koonazz already tried the WoD quests and said they are not soloable.
