Woohoo May 4th is here!
We will be conducting a server restart to enable the Awakening event system from an ad hoc server restart on Friday the 2nd of May through until the scheduled server restart on Monday 12th of May. We will be giving players a chance to get two random event paintings, as this is the 10th Star Wars Day we have experienced since Awakening's inception, we are bringing back all of the prior series of May 4th paintings, to give our player a chance to finish off any sets they may be missing some pieces from. These will be able to be collected once per account (put in the inventory of the first character to login after restart). The commemorative badge for May 4th 2025 will be awarded to each character that is logged in during the event. Like usual there will also be boosted XP during the event, this will be equal to three (3) times the base server XP rate. Keeping in mind that the server is currently on two and a half (2.5) times the base XP rate.
The Event team is planning on holding:
- A Vehicle Race for a prize of a Rare Vehicle See link: Vehicle Race Details
- A Scavenger Hunt for Minor Tokens and a Named Crystal - is live! See: Scavenger Hunt Details
- A Major Token Lottery - Located at Coronet, Corellia outside the Starport at (/waypoint -152 -4725)
There may be additional spontaneous/semi-spontaneous events being held throughout the week. The occurrence of these is solely based on the availability of our volunteer Event Coordination team members.
To summarise everything that’s guaranteed to be happening during the week:
- Two random May 4th event paintings per account, from any existing May 4th painting series (put in the inventory of the first character to login)
- A May 4th 2025 event badge per character logged in
- Increased XP rate (3x the base rate)
Thank you all for playing SWG with us on Awakening. We hope you enjoy!
The staff team wishes you a happy Star Wars Day, May the 4th be with you all!
