The patch notes for Chapter 6.8: Masters of the Wild have been posted on the Star Wars Galaxies official site.

On Thursday, July 26th at 4:00 AM PDT all U.S. and European galaxies will be taken down for server maintenance and a live update.

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

Gameplay:

/assist now takes an optional parameter for the name of the character to /assist, so you no longer have to target the character you want to /assist. /assist without any parameter still works as usual, which is to /assist the character you have targeted.

Different classes now get different stats, rather then everyone getting 90 or 0 in everything. See Racial/Class Statistics at the end of these update notes for more information.

Wookiee Shoulder Pads now use the left shoulder slot.

Players can now join groups if they are in stealth.

Added purple color to the Mandalorian color palette.

Altered Force Melon to act as a healing stim item.

Imperial Battle and Imperial Super Battle Droids found patrolling Theed will no longer attack Rebels on Leave.

Content:

Increased the experience and credits given as a reward for the repeatable Azure Cabal quests.

Dulok villages on Endor have had Duloks added to them.

Dantooine villages have had spawns added to them.

Huff Darklighter now gives his quest.

Tusken junktown mobs spawn no longer inside of world building objects.

Disabled Igbi Freemo's static quest.
