Hello Holotable Heroes,
Today’s updates are mostly backend tickets to help support future updates.
In addition, we’ve made a couple adjustments to try and prevent early victory conditions, while these fixes aren’t 100%, they will help some folks. If you find yourself still getting the Early Victory Conditions issue, please continue to submit all information you can. Thank you
In-game Audio crash is still a known issue and if you are experiencing it, please keep in-game SFX off.
[PC ONLY] Music in Cantina may be different and some buttons may not register a sound between today and our next release

iOS Device Crash during Battle for Naboo + Workaround [Low Affected Player Count]

on EA Forums
Hello Holotable Heroes,
The team has identified an audio issue with a small amount of iOS devices that is causing the game to crash during the Battle for Naboo.
This issue will be fixed in an upcoming update.
The temporary workaround is to disable audio through the in-game settings.
NOTE: This is not turning down your audio on device, this is disabling audio in your SWGOH settings.

Naboo Raid Attempts Ending Early

on EA Forums
Hi Holotable Heroes,
The team is aware of and investigating an issue where Naboo raid attempts may end early, resulting in a victory screen before reaching max score. There is also potentially a crash impacting a small number of players that may be mitigated by muting the audio in settings.
If you run into these issues, any information you can provide us such as your ally code, when you hit the issue, if you used auto at all, and any other relevant information would be helpful.
As a potential workaround try closing your game, clearing its cache, and restarting your device.
We apologize for the inconvenience and appreciate your patience while we work on this.

Hello folks,
I wanna create this space for you to report bugs for Battle for Naboo outside of Answers HQ, where you should be reporting them as well.
Please keep this location BUGS ONLY.

Your Ally Code
If you have a video of it, even better.
Thank you!
EDITED:
If you had your attempt end early with a victory screen, if you're reporting that either here or on Answers HQ, it would be helpful if you can answer any of these questions on your report:
1. Is it getting defeated in a certain wave?
Attempt 1, get defeated in Wave 8. Attempt 2, bug happens.
- or Wave 7, 6, 5, 4?
2. Is it first/second try only?
- New Raid starts.
- You go in and get defeated on your first try and submit.
- Go in for your second try and it happens.
3. Did you Discard any attempts before submitting the Raid attempt before this happened?
4. Is it a low network thing?
- Like the Server is trying to send an update, but you got defeated before that update could reach you. Then next attempt that update happens, which causes the score update from the server?
5. Phone Interrupts?
During your first attempt, did you get a text, phone call, or other notification? Did you swap over to that message and then come back to the game after reading it (and how long do you think it took to get back)?
6. Idling?
Was letting the game be idle for a certain amount of time causing this?

Hi Holotable Heroes,
Here are the notes for today’s update
NEWS
FIXES
KNOWN ISSUES
Datacron
Night Trooper
Battle for Naboo
Here are the notes for today’s update
NEWS
- Battle for Naboo Raid is here!
- Night Trooper (LINK)
- Galactic Legend Ahsoka Tano added to the Journey Guide
- All Character Portraits have been updated
- KAM's Unique Ability 2 Master of Forms was changed from Taunt for 3 turns to Protection Up (30%) for 3 turns
FIXES
- Updated Mod Battles requirements so returning players above level 58 who can't see the quest to unlock them now unlock them automatically.
- [DATACRON] - Adjust Description of Inquisitorius Faction
- Whenever an Inquisitorius ally uses a Basic ability against an enemy inflicted with a stack of Purge, a random other Inquisitorius ally assists, dealing 5% bonus damage per stack of Purge and then they inflict a stack of Purge (max 6) on target enemy, which can't be evaded.
- Fixed a bug where Music would stop playing when retreating or completing a combat battle in the Events section of the game.
KNOWN ISSUES
Datacron
- [DATACRON] - Night Trooper - Recovery and Offense gained is applied twice per Blight stacks Night Trooper gains
The team is monitoring this affix and will make the necessary changes if we believe it does not fit our game balance expectations - [DATACRON] - Healer - Crit hits from Thermal Detonators are increasing Speed which is unintentional and will be fixed in an upcoming update
Night Trooper
- Night Trooper - Special 2 - Blight applied by Special 2 ability cannot be evaded
The intent is Blight will function according to the character using it in this regard (so some characters may allow it to be unavoidable, some may not), but at present it can't be evaded universally which is a bug. - Night Trooper - Special 2 - Blight applied by Special 2 ability can be resisted
Similar to the evasion above, the intent is for Blight to be somewhat generic and usable in multiple character kits or potentially in events, and currently it is universally resistible in all instances. We will address this per character similar to the evasion issue in a future update.
Battle for Naboo
- Droideka does not recover health and protection after using its Reconstructive Revolution ability.
- Droideka's "Deflector Shield Generator" does not grant/reduce Droideka's Speed
- Droideka's "Deflector Shield Generator" does not apply the Speed and Evasion bonuses until after Droideka gains and loses Damage Immunity
- Droideka's "Reconstructive Revolution " grants Protection recovery before Health recovery
- Night Trooper - Special 2 - Blight applied by Special 2 ability can be resisted
- "Charge" stacks do not work consistently across different units
- "Command Droid" unique ability does not grant bonus protection to Dark Side allies
- "Command Droid" unique ability grants Charge when getting Energize in Tiers below Tier 3
- Energize ability description is wrong from Command Battle Droid in battle with different Difficulty Modifier Levels in the Naboo Raid
- 'Recharge' blue effect if mentioned in the buffs/debuffs popup instead of 'Energize' when Command Battle Droid is using Energize ability in the Naboo Raid
- "Command Droid" unique ability grants extra Charge stacks when gaining Damage Immunity
- "Roger Roger" unique ability description does not indicate that it should call more enemies to assist in Tiers 1 and above
Road Ahead July 2024
CG_Tusken_Meathead
on EA Forums
Hi Holotable Heroes,
Welcome to the July 2024 Road Ahead! Today we will be giving you insights into the rise of the Imperial Remnant, the Mysterious characters known as the Great Mothers, a PC Beta Update, and a new Ezra, the next Conquest character!
As a reminder, anything in the Road Ahead is subject to change. But without further ado, enjoy July’s Road Ahead! We look forward to reading and watching your reactions!
We begin with the rise of the Imperial Remnant!
Imperial Remnant
After they were defeated on Endor, the Empire was fractured and scattered through the universe, and began creating factions…one notably known as, the Imperial Remnant! We are excited to bring to you this cast of unscrupulous characters to Star Wars™: Galaxy of Heroes. Here is a brief overview of each character as well as a sneak peek into their capabilities and intended roles within a squad, but more will be coming as we continue to develop these units.
But first, a word from our Lead Designer!
That’s right! With the excitement of the Disney+ series, Ahsoka, we are happy to announce that Galactic Legend Ahsoka Tano is coming to Star Wars: Galaxy of Heroes! You are probably wondering which characters you'll need to unlock her. We’ve got you covered for a few of them and it starts with the Imperial Remnant squad. More of her required characters will be announced periodically until she arrives in game.
Night Trooper - Attacker who spreads Blight among their foes, also has a case of the, “If you can do it, I can do it” in their kit.
Death Trooper (Peridea) - Attacker loves Blight and interacting with Blight. Can be used on a Nightsister squad
Captain Enoch - Leader of the Imperial Remnant squad equipped with a ruthless nature… Decay
Work in Progress Preview:
With all of the exciting releases coming, we wanted to give you a sneak peek on the “Work In Progress” images of Night Trooper and Death Trooper the art team is currently working on. Since these are Work in Progress pictures, details of the final characters may change.
Great Mothers Squad
The Great Mothers are a mysterious and powerful group introduced in the Disney+ series Ahsoka. They have a connection to the Nightsisters of Dathomir, known for their dark magic, their names are Aktropaw, Klothow, and Lakesis. Their shrouded past and enigmatic powers make the Great Mothers a fascinating addition to Star Wars: Galaxy of Heroes.
A small word from one of the design leads of the new Nightsisters team!
Great Mothers - Great Mothers bring Fate Weaving and the two effects: Blessed and Doomed to the table via their Leader ability. Their abilities also boost the effects of the existing Nightsister Acolyte and Nightsister Spirit, making them good choices for the squad. The Great Mothers will also be the 2nd Large Unit introduced into Star Wars: Galaxy of Heroes
Morgan Elsbeth - A skilled warrior with impressive combat prowess, you can expect Morgan Elsbeth to be the Tank of the team.
Who we expect to round out the team:
Other options for the team:
Ezra Conquest Character
The design lead for the new Conquest unit Ezra wanted to stop by and provided a few words on what they’re working on.
We cannot wait for Ezra to make his way to SWGOH and look forward to sharing with you more details about him in the future.
Quick PC Open Beta Update
The PC Closed Beta has been out for a little over 3-weeks now and we couldn’t be happier with all the positive feedback you’ve provided us! The team working on this project has been listening and brainstorming on more ways to make the PC Experience more enjoyable for you, so it’s great to hear that the foundation is in a good place.
So what’s next for the PC Beta?
Due to the success of our PC Closed Beta, we’ve decided to open up the closed beta to everyone who has signed up to this point in early July. We are still working on a few backend issues that we’ve noticed and trying to see if we can create and implement some of your suggestions we’ve heard before going into Open Beta
Meatlogue: I’m very excited about more Ezra content to be honest, always enjoyed their story and character. Seeing more people getting into the Closed Beta will also be awesome. Also, MORE NIGHTSISTERS! Need I say more?
Producer Note Coffeelogue: With Ahsoka art all over my house, I’ve been anxiously awaiting the time for Ahsoka Tano to be our next Galactic Legend! Her show gave us so many characters that not only look visually striking but also hit great notes for the factions we want to build or expand on. Who can resist more Nightsisters???
And so with that, this is the end of the July 2024 Road Ahead!
We are excited to bring more characters into SWGOH who are associated with Ahsoka (including Baylan), we really appreciate you taking the time to read over what we have going on and look forward to reading your conversations and posts about the above.

“We were looking to build a thematic team around the Fallen Empire while making sure to distinctly separate these characters from the Empire faction. Through design, their strengths live within Captain Enochs Undead mechanics which we will go into further at a later date. In addition to Night Trooper and Death Trooper helping round out the Imperial Remnant squad, they will be required for the NEW GALACTIC LEGEND Ahsoka Tano!"

Nightsisters Squad - “First off, we don’t intend to break up the current Nightsister team. With the introduction of these new awesome characters we wanted to make sure we preserved that original team but give this new squad its own unique identity (though, we won't be surprised if you folks find a new team out of all these characters). While we are still investigating some of the mechanics and balance of these characters, we want you, the player, to make choices with this team. It's up to you to decide. The power level we are shooting for this team is around the strength of Gungans, with their own set of strengths and weaknesses of course.” We’re very excited to see another Nightsisters team coming to SWGOH!”

- Nightsister Initiate
Ezra Conquest Character
The design lead for the new Conquest unit Ezra wanted to stop by and provided a few words on what they’re working on.
“Heya friends! Ezra’s designer here. While we’re still fairly early on in the design process for this new Conquest Character, we wanted to give you all a sneak peek of what we’re cooking up. For this version of Ezra, we really want to capture the growth and learnings of who Ezra has become during his time in Exile on Peridia. To that end, this Ezra in Exile will be a Support character that turns his enemy’s strengths against them.”
We cannot wait for Ezra to make his way to SWGOH and look forward to sharing with you more details about him in the future.
