BioWare just posted a new blog updating the players on how the Master’s Datacron will work in Game Update 5.6. 3f5bx
Starting with ’A Traitor Among the Chiss’ (Old Republic™ storylines without worrying about your character level!
The Master’s Datacron also level 1 character to play through the story, or you just want to get right to 70 to jump into group activities with your friends, the Master’s Datacron has everything you need.
Since this is the first time we have offered an item like this, find out more about how the item works below.
To start, you will need to acquire the Master’s Datacron and Equipment Bundle. You can purchase it directly from the Cartel Market for 2,000 CC, or you can check the work on an existing level 70 character.
Opening the bundle will grant your character two items, the Master’s Datacron and the Eternal Commander Equipment box. When you are ready to boost your character to max level, go ahead and right click on the Datacron in your inventory (make sure you are using it on the character you want to boost)! This will begin an eight second cast timer which says, “Promoting to level 70.” With the cast bar complete, you will receive two pop-ups confirming that this is the character that you want to boost. Note: This decision is final and irreversible.
Once confirmed, the screen will fade to white and you will be transported to your log named “Master’s Datacron” with the text “Increasing level.” After a few seconds, that Mission will complete and your character will become level 70.
At this point, you should head to your Discipline window (default shortcut key of K) to choose your Class’s Discipline if you haven’t already. This is important as a Discipline is required to use the Eternal Commander’s Equipment box.
With your Discipline selected, head to your inventory and right click on the Equipment box. This will grant you a full set of gear, based on your chosen Discipline.
You’re all set! Your continue your existing Missions or explore the galaxy!
