Dark vs Light bosses are extremely strong world bosses that you are expected to fight with an organized group of 8 to 16 people.<\/p>\n

\"\"\"\" CURRENT STATUS:\u00a0<\/strong><\/span>You can only earn Dark vs Light tokens when these limited-time bosses are available. They were available in Season 7 and 8, but not 9, and we do not know when they will come back. In the mean time, you can not<\/strong> earn Dark or Light tokens. They may come back in the future in some format, but we do not know when or if they will drop the same way. The instructions below are for how they worked in the past.<\/p>\n

Quick Info<\/h2>\n
    \n
  • Only 2 bosses are available each week<\/strong> and are attached to Galactic Seasons.<\/li>\n
  • Bosses respawn every 7 minutes.<\/strong><\/li>\n
  • See the maps below<\/strong> for boss locations.<\/li>\n
  • Bosses require larger groups to fight<\/strong>, they are not for solo players.<\/li>\n
  • Tactics –<\/strong> stay out of the bad stuff and run away if bad stuff is on the ground. The lag makes doing the mechanics properly almost impossible.<\/li>\n
  • You do not need to be in a group<\/strong> to get credit for fighting them alongside a group, as long as you are on the same faction as the group that is fighting and hit the boss at least once. If the group is Republic and you’re Empire, you won’t get any loot or credit.<\/li>\n
  • If you die, you will still get credit, so “stay dead”<\/strong> rather than returning to medcenter unless your group leader instructs you otherwise.<\/li>\n
  • In larger groups, not everyone might receive a Dark or Light token.<\/li>\n
  • Larger groups will be VERY laggy.<\/li>\n
  • There are achievements!<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n

    Rewards<\/h2>\n

    These special bosses drop a special reward – Light-side bosses (Jedi will always drop Dark Side Tokens<\/strong>, and Dark-side bosses (Sith) will always drop Light Side Tokens.<\/strong> It does not matter where you fight them or what faction you are on. These tokens can be turned in for some really cool, unique rewards including glowing armor and weapons, and a dark and light armor set you can’t get anywhere else. The tokens are legacy-bound and can be found i nthe currency tab of your inventory.<\/p>\n
