The Mission chain can now be accepted directly NPC’s on planet upon reaching level 60. Most of these NPC’s are in the spaceports, but Alderaan on imp side is in Thul Palace. (Did not do Pub side)<br> <br> * <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=P9AjNQsSNrw">https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=P9AjNQsSNrw</a><br> <br> <br> * Tatooine not mentioned here, but is also moved to level 60.<br> <br> <br> <br> Bonus series seems bugged as far as rewards are concerned. I was getting planet level rewards, not level based rewards. Given that level 60 is required, this seems to be an error. I submitted a bug report. We’ll see what happens.<br> <br> <br>
