Ever zoned into a new area and suddenly felt like your character forgot everything โ including how to use their abilities? That's exactly what happened to Star Wars: The Old Republic players last week, thanks to a nasty bug tied to the planet Rishi and its stronghold. But don't worry โ today's update is finally here to rescue your toons!
Last week's seasonal update introduced a wild glitch where characters who traveled to or from Rishi would essentially lose their memories. We're talking about your character's abilities, quickbars, and maybe even their sense of self โ all wiped clean. It was like a Force-induced amnesia, and it was anything but fun.
Broadsword, the team behind SWTOR, initially acknowledged the issue and promised a fix. But as players waited, many were left with characters that were, for all intents and purposes, broken. Imagine logging in to find your level 80 Jedi Knight suddenly unable to use Force abilities โ yeah, not the heroic fantasy you signed up for.
Today's update is set to finally address this mess. According to the patch notes, the fix will fully resolve the memory loss bug, meaning your characters should get their abilities and settings back. It's a huge relief for anyone who's been holding their breath or just avoiding Rishi altogether until this was sorted.
If you haven't logged in yet, now's the time to check if your characters are restored. And if you were one of the unlucky ones stuck with a forgetful toon, this update is your light at the end of the tunnel. Just remember to double-check your loadouts and keybinds once you're back in the game โ you might need to re-equip a few things after the fix.
So, will you be heading back to Rishi today to test out the fix? Or are you still wary of that pesky memory wipe? Let us know in the comments โ and may the Force be with you!
