Official Scheduled Maintenance Thread ~ 11.28.17 ~ Update 5.6

[Logandros]

Please try to keep this thread free of unrelated chatter so it can be used for actual release information and issues..... thank you.

From the official game forums:

Hey everyone!

We will be taking the servers offline on Tuesday, November 28th in order to apply Game Update 5.6. The website will also be unavailable during this time.

Details:
DATE: 28 November 2017
TIME: 5:00AM - 9:00AM PST (1300 - 1700 GMT)
VERSION: 5.6

Patch Notes will be available on Monday, here.

Thank you for your patience as we maintain Star Wars™: The Old Republic™!

-eric

New Users: After the patch drops, Buddy Wing will not function until updated. Please be patient. Users can check Buddy Updates for a version number higher than 1.0 r1384 Build 1053 to determine if the update is ready.

When available, patch notes can be found here: Patch 5.6

Going by the available information thus far, there will be no need to make changes to any advanced classes in Default Combat for continued functionality. There may however be necessary tweaks due to reductions and increases in certain spells that my lead to changes in priority. Feel free to contribute in the official Default Combat thread.

Aevitas, health percent is returning 100 for everything no matter what the health is since this update.

Have problems with "resting" after last update. Bot just won't rest, and die after few packs of mobs

Some thing that was only in beta somehow creeped in to release, Aevitas is aware.

Have not been able to use BuddyWing since last Tuesday morning, March 28th maintenance. Clean install still gets "object not found". Any word on when there will be an update?

This issue is on your end. Version 1.0.1371.1024 works just fine. Try running as an admin or add the exe as an exclusion to any AV you have running.

This new patch is rather large, I'll need some more time to iron things out and get the bot back on its feet. I hope to have it working within 24 hours, but that's a very rough estimate.

Edit: Never mind, it didn't turn out to be that difficult after all. Update's out.

 

[exaccuss]

Thanks for that. Unless i am blind, why on earth isn't that buddy updates page not on the main page like it used to be before they changed the forum layout?

 

[Aevitas]

We're working on getting the new planet to work with BW, but as it stands, that's quite a bit of work. We expect to have it up within a week, and I'll use this thread to keep you guys updated.

 

[keyvax]

We have been given an additional dev to this project to get the new zone done. Can't give a time-frame but I can say additional resources were loaned to us to help expedite it.

 

[Logandros]

Incorrect, still an issue being worked on.

Yeah, we're making progress on that.

5.3a just dropped was wondering if a new build was on the way?

It's up - sorry for the delay.
