Dread Guard Eradication Droid

Located in the starship wastes area outside the starting camps, you can find these droids either patrolling the main roads, or sitting still surrounded by stealth-scanning probes. Will probably take a few down while doing the escape pod daily.

Factions: Both – Number on Map: 1

Large Corrupted Tentacle

Head to any of the large spacious plateaus inside the tangled grove of northern Oricon. The large tentacles usually spawn away from the bundles of little ones.

Factions: Both – Number on Map: 2

Closest Imperial Travel: Dread Fortress Bridge

Closest Republic Travel: Republic Landing Zone

Corrupted Geo Beast

The large, gold-level vorantikus-like target will spawn around the edges of the terraforming devices from the power of dread mission area, just south/southeast of the main tower in the middle. Not to be confused with the Geo Beast larva, or corrupted hounds.

Factions: Both – Number on Map: 3

Closest Republic Travel: Dread Fortress Bridge

Dread Guard Dominator

Typically found guarding the path up to the top of the watchtower during the daily mission. Has a fancy black-white dualsaber. Could be the least frequently found enemy for Dread Tyrant – stick around the top of the ramps at this map pin for a guaranteed spawn.

Factions: Both – Number on Map: 4

Dread Guard Acolyte

The Dread Guard Acolytes are gold-level leaders of small packs in the heroic area around the palace. There’s tons of “acolyte” named enemies all around Oricon, but these gold level ones in the heroic area are the only ones that count.

Factions: Both – Number on Map: 5

Crazed Jedi

Located in the starship wastes area outside the starting camps, you can find crazed force users spawning where any of the dread soldiers do – whether you’re in the northern pubside or southern imperial side, doesn’t matter. Will probably take a few down while doing the escape pod daily.

Factions: Both – Number on Map: 6

Crazed Sith

Located in the starship wastes area outside the starting camps, you can find crazed force users spawning where any of the dread soldiers do – even though its very close to the republic base, this spot is great for both, because it usually has both the crazed jedi AND crazed sith together.

Factions: Both – Number on Map: 7
