Hands on Updates and Further Information
Warzone Novare Coast
The planet Denova has become a hotbed for galactic conflict. Both the warzone Novare Coast and the operation Explosive Conflict (hey, I didn't make up the names) take place on this previously unmentioned planet. Although it's a bit unclear to me why this planet is so important, perhaps it will make itself clear once Update 1.2 launches. Decked out in our War Hero armor, everyone in the room jumped into the warzone. Unfortunately, there was not enough time for us to complete the operation.
If you enjoy the Alderaan Warzone, then you are going to love the Novare Coast. And if you thought Alderaan was too slow or it was too easy to hold nodes, then try out Novare Coast when it goes live. The two warzones have similar objectives but are just different enough to make things interesting.
The control points operate cannons that aim at the enemy's bunker. Each bunker has a regenerating shield that just so happens to regenerate as fast as one cannon can fire. If you are able to get two of the three cannons to fire at the enemy's bunker, then it will begin to take damage. The map is set up with the cannon controls in an upside-down triangular shape with the bottom point between the two bases and the northern two points directly north of the respawn points. The map is smaller than Alderaan's, and more than one person can turn the cannon at one time, causing them to turn faster.
Overall, its smaller map made for faster action.
Flashpoint: The Lost Island
The new flashpoint ties into the existing game lore. The Rakghoul virus found on Kaon during the Kaon Under Siege flashpoint has been traced to a lab on Ord Mantel. The mad scientist running the lab didn't stop with infecting humans; instead he continued his work with other species and wildlife in an attempt to perfect the viral strain. Of course, it is our job to stop that from happening. Unfortunately -- and despite BioWare's emphasis on it -- the story really falls short in this flashpoint. I'm not saying that story isn't there, it just wasn't as in-your-face as it was in other flashpoints like the Foundry.
Mechanically, the flashpoint was really sound, and did I mention fun? I was surprised at the complexity of the flashpoint, even in "story mode." The game became mostly about coordination timing and less about gear stats. Granted, my whole team was playing characters and classes that we don't play normally, but we did manage to work together well enough to get to the last boss.
For those wanting details about the encounters, I'll give you a quick overview. The first boss is a security droid that systematically releases Rakghoul at the same time it drops ever-expanding pools of electricity. The second boss is a mutated Savrip who thinks he's a monkey. He likes to jump and stomp the ground, and if you aren't close enough to him when he shakes the platform, you will get knocked off. Worse, he throws a poison DoT that will spread from one player to the next, causing major damage if you stand too close to your mates. There is a bonus boss about which I won't give too much away other than to say, "Watch out for the falling icicles!" The final boss is, of course, the scientist. The best comment came from my own character, who said, "If the formula is so good, why don't you use it on yourself?" and that's exactly what he did. This just goes to show that sometimes you don't even want to jokingly give bad advice.

Further Legacy Information
Post 1.2, you are allowed to tag your Legacy characters with a family relationship. That means your characters will take the following roles: Spouse, Ally, Child, Adopted Child, or Parent. Completing Act II of your Class Story with any character will unlock an emote that corresponds to that particular class. What's more interesting is that once you complete Act III with any of your chars, you'll gain the following abilities:
- Bounty Hunter / Trooper – Flamethrower / Sticky Grenade
- Sith Inquisitor / Jedi Consular – Lightning Storm / Project
- Sith Warrior / Jedi Knight – Force Choke / Force Sweep
- Imperial Agent / Smuggler – Orbital Strike / Dirty Kick
Also, if you max out the affection with all your companions (per character), you'll gain +50 boost to Presence stat, 5-minute reduction on Heroic Moment ability, and a +1 minute addition to the duration of the Heroic Moment buff. There are also a bunch of unlockable social emotes such as /doublelasers (costs 150k and requires level 15 Legacy) or /weld (costs 50k and requires level 12 Legacy) and a total of 4 unarmed abilities, unlocked at different PVP Valor Ranks.

Post 1.2, you are allowed to tag your Legacy characters with a family relationship. That means your characters will take the following roles: Spouse, Ally, Child, Adopted Child, or Parent. Completing Act II of your Class Story with any character will unlock an emote that corresponds to that particular class. What's more interesting is that once you complete Act III with any of your chars, you'll gain the following abilities:
- Bounty Hunter / Trooper – Flamethrower / Sticky Grenade
- Sith Inquisitor / Jedi Consular – Lightning Storm / Project
- Sith Warrior / Jedi Knight – Force Choke / Force Sweep
- Imperial Agent / Smuggler – Orbital Strike / Dirty Kick
Also, if you max out the affection with all your companions (per character), you'll gain +50 boost to Presence stat, 5-minute reduction on Heroic Moment ability, and a +1 minute addition to the duration of the Heroic Moment buff. There are also a bunch of unlockable social emotes such as /doublelasers (costs 150k and requires level 15 Legacy) or /weld (costs 50k and requires level 12 Legacy) and a total of 4 unarmed abilities, unlocked at different PVP Valor Ranks.
