How to Get Dynamic Encounters Armors

Dynamic Encounters are a new type of scheduled, timed quests on different planets in Star Wars: The Old Republic. Some of the funny ones include carrying baby Tauntauns up hills, advertising as a Gonk droid, and launching Gamorreans into a Sarlacc pit. They can reward some unique armors.

Read more about these armors at the Dynamic Encounters Guide page on Swtorista.com.

Legacy-Bound

The Dynamic Encounters armor set is legacy-bound which means it can be shared between your characters.

Read more about what legacy-bound armors are on the Legacy-Bound Armor Guide page on Swtorista.com.
