With today’s maintenance we saw a patch being deployed for SWTOR. These small patches are usually not that interesting because they are just bug fixes or something similar. This time though we saw what might be considered a significant change for Legacy perks. A lot of legacy perks have had their Legacy level requirement lowered considerably. Here are the changes that were introduced with the pathc:
  

• The Legacy Levels required for experience modifier perks have been adjusted. The ranks now require Legacy Level 2/3/5/7/10 (changed from 5/10/15/20/25).
• The Legacy Levels required for companion modifier perks have been adjusted. The ranks now require Legacy Level 2/5/8 (changed from 5/10/15).
• The Capital World and Outlaw’s Den priority transit perks now require Legacy Level 2 (previously 10).
• The Fleet Vanguard and Black Hole priority transit perks now require Legacy Level 5 (previously 10).
• The Legacy Levels required for the repair droid perks have been adjusted. The ranks now require Legacy Level 5/8/12 (changed from 10/15/25).
