Update 7.2.1b is now out! There is a series of small fixes. My favorites include Huttball now counting for PvP, and the floor being fixed in the Eternity Vault operation.
- Special characters are now correctly copied when transferring a character from the website.
- Fixed the following issues with the Wasteland Raider’s Helmet:
- The Wasteland Raider’s Helmet is no longer missing its visor.
- Character’s head is no longer invisible when equipping the Wasteland Raider’s Helmet.
- The Strategic Assault Speeder is no longer invisible.
- The description of the Master Datacron and Equipment item now correctly lists the Noble Decurion Equipment instead of the Eternal Commander one.
- Original map Huttball is now counting toward PvP Season Objectives, as intended.
- The PvP Season Two Prodigy Achievement now rewards the correct Legacy Title: Veil Piercer.
- Fixed several floor issues in the Eternity Vault Operation.
- The environment no longer disappears when moving the camera in the Balmorran Arms Factory on Balmorra.
- Fixed missing environment in the following location:
- Walls during Chapter XV – Gemini Deception
- Trees in Rishi Stronghold
- Change how the level of texture detail is chosen to reduce the flickering effect on certain systems.
- Fixed the flickering shadow textures on characters in the Ossus Imperial base.
- Warzone Adrenals that have been purchased from a vendor will now be destroyed after deconstruction.
- Eligible players who achieved the requirements on the Shae Vizla test server will receive the Opal Vulptilla Mount in their in-game message when 7.2.1b launches. More information in this article: Star Wars™: The Old Republic™ to open test server hosted on the cloud!
Sorry but the headless horseman and non-existent-horse style is no longer allowed in #SWTOR 😁 Update 7.2.1b had a bunch of lil fixes like huttball counting, and the eternity vault has a floor again.

NEW – Black screen since 7.2.1b (impacts players using colorblind mode)
Our team is currently looking into this bug. In the meantime, players need to following these troubleshooting steps to turn off the colorblind mode:

- Save the file
- Restart the game
DOES YOUR #SWTOR LOOK LIKE THIS?
This is a Colorblind Mode 👁🗨 issue accidentally introduced with the newest update – a pure black screen. To fix it you need to disable colorblind mode OUTSIDE of the game until there's an official patch/fix.
