Patch Notes 08/17/2026

Empire Day 2026
Empire Day 2026 is now active!
19 new items have been added across the two factional vendors.
More Empire Day rewards are currently in development and will be added soon.

Junk Loot

Junk loot items with the same name can now be stacked together.
SOE created several separate item templates that share identical names, which previously prevented these items from stacking. These have now been grouped appropriately.
The following junk loot is currently supported: Power Supply, Differential Regulator, Control Box, Aeromagnifier, Data Housing, Self Analysis Circuit, Restraining Device, Vocabulator, Shield Module, Servo Joint, and Medical Device.
Existing items may require you to use the radial menu and select Stack before they are combined.

Crafting Droids

Droids equipped with multiple crafting modules will no longer break the experimentation phase of crafting.
Droids can now be used normally during the crafting process.

Housing

The IG-88 Blaster Bunker will now accept Storage Increase Deeds.
Fixed a crash-to-desktop issue related to house placement.

Toolbars & Keymaps

Side toolbar keymaps will no longer display text such as SHIFT + =.
Existing characters created before this update may need to manually remove the affected keymap through Options.
Keymap shortcut text on toolbar slots will no longer disappear when switching a toolbar between vertical and horizontal layouts.

Client

Fixed a LOD issue that could cause significant FPS drops.
The EXP bar can now be moved to a custom position.

Misc.
The Maximillian instance list has been revised to better support how the community currently runs the content. As requested by the community, the instance order is now: EK, AM, IG-88, and TK.

Entertainer buffs (Inspiration) will no longer randomly disappear when traveling or dying.
