Kessan’s Landing Map<\/h2>\n

Are you the kind of player who enjoys finding every quest and secret in the game? This interactive map of the Kessan’s Landing on Ord Mantell has every point of interest marked so you can find your way around more easily in Star Wars: The Old Republic.<\/em><\/p>\n

Datacron<\/h2>\n

<\/p>\n

To get the secret Kessan\u2019s Landing Ord Mantell datacron, you must complete a series of quests and solve a series of puzzles introduced with Update 7.4.<\/p>\n

Geothermal Shielding is a set of \u201csecret\u201d quests on the Kessan\u2019s Landing area of Ord Mantell. Once completed, you get use of the Geothermal Shield Unit, which lets you explore areas of Kessan\u2019s Landing on Ord Mantell you might not otherwise be able to safely walk through. Check the guide below on the Datacron, which also includes a nested guide on Shielding if still needed.<\/p>\nKessan\u2019s Landing Ord Mantell Secret Datacron & Lava Problems Quest Guide<\/a>\n

Reputation Vendors<\/h2>\n

<\/p>\n

Although a shared reputation is nothing new, Kessan’s landing also uniquely shares a vendor – so both Republic and Imperials will come to the same guy here, north of the Ardak Point Quicktravel drop-off, to get their rewards for this planet.<\/p>\nKessan’s Landing Daily Area Guide and Rewards<\/a>\n

World Boss<\/h2>\n

<\/p>\n

The FR3-D0M War Droid is a World Boss available to both factions.<\/p>\n

Complete with flame-conals, Area of Effect attacks, and Damage over Time effects, the damage output from this boss can be more than the average. Check the link below for some footage of the fight from Kessan’s Launch.<\/p>\nWorld Boss Guide<\/a>\n

Exploration Quests<\/h2>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\nKessan’s Landing Quest List<\/a>\n

Kessan’s Landing has a pretty straightforward story element including a compliment of daily missions and a few secrets, but if you want to see in-depth what each mission is, we have that documented!<\/p>\n

Travel<\/h2>\n

\" \" \"<\/p>\n

Every planet has multiple ways to get around besides on foot or speeder – you can take the taxi points and fly around, the quick travel point which are an instant teleport, or the heroic shuttles \/ transports which are granted when you pick up heroic quests for the planet.<\/p>\n

\u00a0Taxis are unlocked by default, you just need to find one taxi point and you can then ride to any of them on Alderaan.<\/p>\n

Quick travel points are unlocked once you have walked near the quick travel point at least once. You can find your quick travel by pressing ‘p’ on your keyboard and going to the ‘General’ tab. You’ll need to explore Alderaan to unlock all of the quick travel points for future use on the planet.<\/p>\n

\u00a0 Heroic shuttles \/ transports are a unique way to travel that is offered to you if you pick up heroic quests, usually near the spaceport. They teleport you to directly outside where the heroic quest would start. You need to be the correct level to pick up a planet’s heroic quests to travel this way. Heroic quests can be shared with a friend.<\/p>\n
