EiF Patch Notes 09/28/2025 – Tanaab Harvest Week 1

Posted on by

The Taanab Harvest has returned to An Empire in Flames!

  • Players can participate by traveling to Taanab, to the Arcon Multinode Hybrid Plantings.
  • The event will run for four weeks, with each week bringing new missions, new prizes, and new risks.
  • Assist one of four farmer cooperative NPCs to earn a unique prize.
  • Participate in multiple events to earn more coins to purchase prizes from the farmers cooperative R4 agromech vendor!
  • And new this year: speak to the farmers’ flight operations officer, Wes, to undertake missions in Taanab space against Norulac ships. Fight brand-new enemies from the cockpit of starfighters never seen in SWG before

JtL

  • Ion encumbrance system added. Ion cannons no longer do hull or armor damage, but instead shut down components when struck.
  • Added a new command: /coldStart, which forces all ship systems to reboot and clears ion encumbrance.
  • Mission NPCs can now only be attacked by the mission owner (or other pilots grouped with the mission owner).
  • New space zone: Taanab.

Fixes

  • Fixed an issue where a player’s server position continued to be updated by a multipassenger vehicle after the player dismounted.
  • Fixed an issue with the Taanab space map. (Client patch required – make sure you re-run your patcher!)

  • The Taanab Harvest event has entered its third week!
    • Players who travel to the Taanab hex farms can speak with co-op president Bukrom in person, who will give players details.
    • The Taanab Harvest is a four-week event, with each week introducing a new phase with new missions, loot, and escalating danger.
    • Quest givers have a new set of missions for Week 3 as tensions rise and the conflict between the Taanab farmers and Norulac pirates edge toward all-out war.
    • Kari Saarek is looking for volunteers to take the fight to the Norulacs, striking at the beachhead camps they have established across the planet.
    • Jaa Haruss needs walker pilots to man surplus AT-STs and escort grain shipments from the hex farms to Pandath.
    • Vinon Daivik is looking for operatives to strike at the Norulacs and capture some officers for interrogation.
    • Completing missions for a co-op leader will provide a single-time, unique prize, in addition to harvest coins. You can only earn one of these unique prizes per week. (I.e. if you earn Kari Saarek’s unique mission prize, you cannot earn Jaa Haruss or Vinon Daivik’s prize for this week!)
    • NOTE: Solia Maduel’s quests are disabled. Maybe next year.

  • The Taanab Harvest event has entered its second week!
    • Players who travel to the Taanab hex farms can speak with co-op president Bukrom in person, who will give players details.
    • The Taanab Harvest is a four-week event, with each week introducing a new phase with new missions, loot, and escalating danger.
    • Quest givers have a new set of missions for Week 2 as the harvest continues, with Norulac predations rising and the farmers racing against time to combat the threat.
    • Kari Saarek needs volunteers to whip militia recruits into fighting shape by taking them on patrols around the hex farm.
    • Jaa Haruss needs brave players to investigate reports of Norulac activity across Taanab.
    • Vinon Daivik is looking for travelers to track down contacts who may provide the Taanab farmers the materiel they desperately need to fight the Norulacs…for a price.
      • Special note: Vinon Daivik’s quest cannot be repeated this week.
    • Completing missions for a co-op leader will provide a single-time, unique prize, in addition to harvest coins. You can only earn one of these unique prizes per week. (I.e. if you earn Kari Saarek’s unique mission prize, you cannot earn Jaa Haruss or Vinon Daivik’s prize for this week!)
    • NOTE: Solia Maduel’s quests are disabled. Maybe next year.

  • The Taanab Harvest event has begun!
    • Players who travel to the Taanab hex farms can speak with co-op president Bukrom in person, who will give players details.
    • The Taanab Harvest is a four-week event, with each week introducing a new phase with new missions, loot, and escalating danger.
    • Work for three different co-op leaders – Kari Saarek, Jaa Haruss, and Vinon Daivik – to help the Taanab farmers in their attempts to protect themselves from the predations of the Norulac pirates.
    • Completing fifteen missions for a co-op leader will provide a single-time, unique prize, in addition to harvest coins. You can only earn one of these unique prizes per week. (I.e. if you earn Kari Saarek’s fifteen mission prize for the first week, you cannot earn Jaa Haruss or Vinon Daivik’s prize for week 1!)
    • NOTE: Solia Maduel’s quests are disabled. Maybe next year.
    • Special note: Vinon Daivik’s quest requires Surveillance Binoculars, introduced as a new craftable with this patch.

Utility Items

  • This patch introduces a handful of new artisan-craftable items and commands. These items will be used in new quests and content going forward.
  • These new “utility items” can be equipped normally. To save inventory space, a player can /stow them (the utility item equivalent to /holster). While they’re equipped, a player can /utilize them.
  • Surveillance Binoculars – Accepts a datacard. Used to scout out and record areas for survey and surveillance purposes.
  • Datapad – Accepts a datacard. Used to retrieve and store data.

Changes

  • Utilize now has a cooldown to prevent spamming.
  • Flash Speeder price increased to 75k credits due to a galaxy-wide shortage.

Bug Fixes

  • Fixed the X-34 landspeeder’s speed.
