SWTOR Bounty Hunter Classic Venture Guide

| September 15, 2026

The Bounty Hunter Classic Venture in Star Wars: The Old Republic is a fun, challenging, long-term way of playing the game and exploring all its facets while levelling up a brand new Bounty Hunter from level 1 on Hutta, all the way up to level 50 on Ilum. You’ll be expected to fight, explore, gear up, and hunt down unique foes, all while taking extra damage during fights and levelling up at a pace that’s more in line with levelling up at the launch of the game. This mode also introduces a bunch of new special items you’ll pick up off of glowing golden enemies that will give you special boosts or temporary challenges as you play in Classic mode, and of course has unique rewards just for the Imperial Agent.

All of this information is from the Public Test Server. There is a good chance much of it may change before the Classic Ventures system is released in 8.0 which the developers are aiming to release at the end of 2026! Many of the screenshots are also from the unfinished Public Test Server – you can see many unfinished graphics, labels, and objectives there. My favorite is the pie image placeholders.

How to Start

To start a new Classic Venture, choose Classic when you go to create a character (rather than the Full Campaign, which is what you would pick for a normal new character.)

Ventures are only available to subscribers, and that includes the Bounty Hunter Classic Venture. Free-to-play players will not be able to start venture characters, and preferred players will not be able to continue playing any venture characters they have made until they re-subscribe.

Choose a Combat Style

When you go to create a Classic Venture Imperial Agent, you will notice that you only have two options for your Combat Style – the Mercenary or the Powertech. In the normal game, you have a lot more options, but these were the two options available at the launch of the game, and during a Classic Venture, you’ll only be able to pick between these two styles. This means you can not play a Bounty Hunter as an Operative, Sniper, Vanguard, Commando,  Scoundrel, or Gunslinger while playing a classic venture.

Questions or comments? Feel free to send me a message on Twitter @swtorista, Reddit /u/swtorista, Youtube Swtorista channel or by e-mail at the same name with gmail.com at the end. Have fun out there and may the Force be with you. ~ Swtorista

Mercenary

Pairs of blasters, deadly heat-seeking missiles, and heavy armor make Mercenaries mobile weapons platforms. There’s no problem extra firepower can’t solve, and no one with any sense gets between Mercenaries and their target.

The Mercenary wields twin blaster pistols and can switch between three different Disciplines: Bodyguard, Arsenal, and Innovative Ordnance. The Mercenary acts as a Damage or Healer role in combat.

Bodyguard

The Bodyguard Mercenary specializes in personal-security services, positioning themselves as the best protection credits can buy. A varied array of kolto dispersement instruments provide the Bodyguard’s targets with protective shells and time-release infusions, offering safe haven in even the most hostile environments.

Arsenal

The Arsenal Mercenary specializes in distance attacks, employing long-range weapons to demolish anyone unlucky enough to be in their sights. Devastating missile-fire combinations and relentless blaster volleys generate a spectacle of explosive brilliance and transform the Bounty Hunter into a virtual artillery platform.

Innovative Ordnance

Taking advantage of chaos they’ve created is what the Innovative Ordnance Mercenary is all about. With an arsenal of explosives and piercing munitions, the I.o. Merc’s barrage of missiles, grenades and weapon blasts cause lasting, destructive damage to all their enemies.

Bodyguard for New Players

  • Bodyguard is a healer discipline, which makes it harder to learn than a damage class for most new players
  • Most players recommend to level as a damage discipline, then switch to healer when you are ready for group content
  • All three healer styles are not too hard to start healing with, just select a player and heal with a green ability
  •   Bodyguard has an easy to use free heal and all the abilities are clickable right away
  • But it can be harder to learn to keep your energy up compared to other healing disciplines

Arsenal for New Players

  • Arsenal is long-range, making it easier to hit moving targets compared to melee disciplines for new players
  • Your main ability requires you stand still while you use it, like a turret, but you can choose to make it activate instantly
  •  Most abilities can simply be used, you don’t need to activate them in any way first
  •  Arsenal is pretty simple to pick up the basics of with a guide

Innovative Ordnance for New Players

  • Innovative Ordnance is long-range, making it easier to hit moving targets compared to melee disciplines for new players.
  • Of all the long-range classes, I.O. is the most mobile! You don’t need to stand still for a large majority of your abilities.
  •  If you are able to watch your debuff timers, this discipline is decently easy to learn with a guide, however it is harder to learn than its other Mercenary damage option, Arsenal.

Cool Abilities

  • Bodyguards are the most flexible type of healer, great for healing groups or single characters.
  • Kolto Shot, fun easy free heal
  • Kolto Missile, giant green healing splat on the ground
  •  Responsive Safeguards, reflective super shield with a heal (optional)
  •  Rocket Out, jump backwards quickly
  •  Jet Boost, push enemies back
  • Concussive Missile, knock an enemy out of the fight
  •  Hydraulic Overrides, fast movement speed and immunity to knockbacks (optional)
  •  Electrodart, short stun (optional)
  • Stealth Scan, find hidden enemies (optional)

Cool Abilities

  •  Blazing Bolts, flashy blaster fire that changes color based on your weapon’s color crystal IMPERIAL
  •  Heatseeker Missiles, an exploding round that does high damage
  •  Responsive Safeguards, reflective super shield with a heal (optional)
  •  Rocket Out, jump backwards quickly
  •  Jet Boost, push enemies back
  • Concussive Missile, knock an enemy out of the fight
  •  Hydraulic Overrides, fast movement speed and immunity to knockbacks (optional)
  •  Electrodart, short stun (optional)
  • Stealth Scan, find hidden enemies (optional)

Cool Abilities

  • Innovative Ordnance is all about keeping your damage-over-time abilities on your enemy as they are about to run out, rather than button mashing them over and over, and getting free abilities by throwing a bomb then shooting it to blow it up.
  •  Incendiary Missile, what’s not to like about tossing a ball of fire at your opponent?
  •  Serrated Bolt, fires a special round that causes the target to bleed over time
  •  Responsive Safeguards, reflective super shield with a heal (optional)
  •  Rocket Out, jump backwards quickly
  •  Jet Boost, push enemies back
  • Concussive Missile, knock an enemy out of the fight
  •  Hydraulic Overrides, fast movement speed and immunity to knockbacks (optional)
  •  Electrodart, short stun (optional)
  • Stealth Scan, find hidden enemies (optional)

Powertech

The best in shielding, defensive tactics, and high-powered flamethrowers combine to make Powertechs impenetrable one-man blockades who get up close and personal to take down enemies of all sizes.

The Powertech wields a single blaster pistol, and can switch between three different Disciplines: Shield Tech, Pyrotech, and Advanced Prototype. The Powertech acts as a Damage or Tank role in combat.

Shield Tech

Launching into the fray with a jetpack-propelled attack and able to withstand powerful offenses, the Powertech trained in the Shield tech specification takes the brunt of the assault while employing a wide range of tech-based attacks to scorch and trip up even the most formidable adversaries.

Pyrotech

Need a light? The Pyrotech-style Powertech add fuel to any firefight with an abundance of vivid, searing flame attacks. From fistfuls of fire to missiles loaded with highly combustible compounds, the Pyrotech’s arsenal allows them to never back down while making sure their enemy burns out in a blaze of destruction.

Advanced Prototype

When stalking dangerous prey, a selection of powerful, high-tech armaments can be a hunter’s best friend. The Advanced Prototype Powertech’s thermal detonators, gauntlet blades and magnetized bracers devastate their intended target while ensuring the Powertech remains on the bleeding edge of any engagement.

Shield Tech for New Players

  •  Shield Tech is a tank style, which means it does less damage, but can stay alive more easily
  • Most players recommend to level as a damage style, then switch to tank when you are ready for group content
  • In group content, tanks are expected to take a unique leadership role, not just do damage, which can be challenging for new players
  • Shield Tech is the simplest to learn of the three tanking styles
  • Powertech tanking is my favorite type of tanking!

Pyrotech for New Players

  • Pyrotech is very mobile and very easy to jump and move around with while playing.
  • It is a short-range class, but you can use many of your abilities even if you are farther away, making it easy to hit enemies even if you are not very coordinated when it comes to making your way to your enemy.
  • All of your abilities can just be used right away, you don’t need to activate them first in any way.
  • Pyrotech is a DOT or damage-over-time class, which means you set things on fire – then let them burn over time. So to do big damage you need to learn to not simply set your enemy on fire over and over.

Advanced Prototype for New Players

  • Advanced Prototype is very mobile and very easy to jump and move around with while playing.
  • It is a short-range class as you need to occasionally be within stabbing distance, but you can use many of your abilities even if you are farther away, making it easy to hit enemies even if you are not very coordinated when it comes to making your way to your enemy.
  •  All but one of your abilities can just be used right away, you don’t need to activate them first in any way.
  • Advanced Prototype for me was not too hard to learn – it has a few more steps and things to watch for compared to Pyrotech, but wasn’t too bad!

Cool Abilities

  •  Shield Tech focuses on keeping yourself alive with various defensive abilities, self-heals, and shields
  •  Energy Yield, shield that increases as you take damage
  • Firestorm, blasts a cone of fire at multiple enemies
  •  Deadly Onslaught, hits multiple targets at once with flashy plasma blasts
  • Shoulder Cannon, fast mini missiles with an optional heal
  • Taunts, causes enemies to focus on you
  • Rising Phoenix, leap to an enemy
  •  Hydraulic Overrides, fast movement speed and immunity to knockbacks (optional)
  • Grapple, pull an enemy to you
  • Carbonize, stun many enemies around you in carbonite
  •  Electrodart, short stun (optional)
  • Stealth Scan, find hidden enemies (optional)
  •  Oil Slick, defensive ground oil

Cool Abilities

  •  Pyrotech definitely felt like one of the easiest classes to learn how to play the basics of for me so far with a guide! It’s pretty simple and rotates through key abilities. Even just pressing random buttons worked pretty good, though it didn’t do a ton of damage.
  •  Immolate, deals high fire damage to a target
  •  Thermal Yield, increases both your armor and your damage output
  •  Deadly Onslaught, hits multiple targets at once with flashy plasma blasts
  • Shoulder Cannon, fast mini missiles
  •  Jet Charge, leap to an enemy (optional)
  •  Hydraulic Overrides, fast movement speed and immunity to knockbacks (optional)
  • Grapple, pull an enemy to you
  •  Electrodart, short stun (optional)
  • Stealth Scan, find hidden enemies (optional)

Cool Abilities

  •  Advanced Prototype focuses on stabbing enemies with a knife and using a stacking buff called Power Lode to your advantage.
  • Energy Burst, unleashes stored energy to deal high damage
  • Retractable Blade, guts the target with a vibroblade, dealing additional damage over time
  •  Deadly Onslaught, hits multiple targets at once with flashy plasma blasts
  • Shoulder Cannon, fast mini missiles
  •  Jet Charge, leap to an enemy (optional)
  •  Hydraulic Overrides, fast movement speed and immunity to knockbacks (optional)
  • Grapple, pull an enemy to you
  •  Electrodart, short stun (optional)
  • Stealth Scan, find hidden enemies (optional)

Ventures

Once you have created your Classic Venture character, you can open your Legacy Panel (N key on your keyboard by default), and select your new character in Classic Ventures, which will be on the menu on the left under Ventures.

After selecting your character, you can then see the objectives to complete!

Gold Enemies

As you play your venture character, keep your eyes open for unique glowing gold enemies scattered around the map. All enemies have a chance of dropping special venture-only items, but golden glowing enemies have a higher chance of giving you special buffs, venture currency, or challenge items.

Venture Buffs

While playing, keep an eye on your inventory! In addition to the normal gear, credits, or other randomized loot you would get from enemies, you can also get venture-specific items to use on your venture character. These include challenge items, grenades, and treasure finding gear. See the Classic Venture Items Buffs, Boosts, and Grenade Preview on the PTS (Public Test Server) guide to see what they do.

Objectives

The Bounty Hunter’s venture objectives will send you to complete some interesting additional objectives that you might not see if all you were doing was your main class story, and the first section focuses on exploring Hutta and Dromund Kaas.

The Bounty Hunter is not yet on the PTS (Public Test Server) as Classic Ventures yet. These are some objectives based on the Imperial Agent’s objectives, which are up for testing on the PTS. These are only projected objectives, and may not be correct or what comes out on live in the 8.0 expansion. Some are in testing on the Public Test Server, and some are not. Some objectives may be added later, and others may be removed or changed. The Public Test Server system also uses leftover categories, icons, and reward points from the previous venture – so you may see some placeholders or un-named sections and categories.

Rewards

At the moment, the developers have not revealed what the new rewards will be, and they are not on the Public Test Server. The developers have said there will be 16 unique sets of rewards, 1 for each class for each venture type (Classic and Expert), plus overarching meta rewards for completing everything.

We do also know that there will be something called Expert Gear Unlocks – but we know very little about these yet except they will be powerful gear upgrades to help us get through the more difficult venture tasks.
