SWTOR Bowdaar customization

Companion customizations in SWTOR
are very important. They differentiate your SWTOR companion from all the other identical companions you could see running around the world. Up today, we have smuggler companion, Bowdaar's customizations. Unlike most other companions, Bowdaar's customizations only change the clothing he wears; he'll always look like the same, fuzzy wookie.

Bowdaar customization 1, 2, 3 and 4 (as well as default Bowdaar at the start). These can all be purchased on Balmorra, Belsavis and the Ilum base camp.

Bowdaar customization 5 and 6. These two can only be purchased from the Security Key vendor on the Ilum Orbital Station.

SWTOR Corso customization

Companion customizations in SWTOR are very important. They help give your companion - and possible love interest - a different look than the dozens upon dozens of otherwise identical companions you would run across in the 'wild'.

And because the tiles to look at the customizations are really, really tiny - like impossible to see anything but hairstyle and skin color tiny - I have decided I'm going to do a page dedicated to each SWTOR companion.

Smuggler companion, Corso Riggs, will be leading us off.

Please click on the image to make it larger.





This is Corso customization 1. It can be purchased on Taris, Balmorra, Belsavis and the Ilum base camp.

This is customization 2 for Corso. It can be purchased on Taris, Balmorra, Belsavis and the Ilum base camp.

Corso's customization 3. It can be purchased on Taris, Balmorra, Belsavis and the Ilum base camp.

Customization 4. It can be purchased on Taris, Balmorra, Belsavis and the Ilum base camp.

Corso customization 5. It can be purchased on Taris, Balmorra, Belsavis and the Ilum base camp.

Customization 6. It can be purchased on Taris, Balmorra, Belsavis and the Ilum base camp.





There is a Corso customization 7, however, it's limited to the Collector's Edition, which I don't have. So if anyone would like to donate a nice photo of the face, I'd be very thankful. You can post a link to a Photobucket or other image hosting site in the links below. Thank you. 

Corso customization 8. It can only be purchased from the Security Key vendor on the Ilum Orbital Station.

HK-51 acquisition video

Once you have collected the HK-51 components and defeated the Lord of Agony, you will get to enter the HK chamber and activate your own HK-51 droid. This activation is done through a short cutscene.

I thought I made a copy of it, but either I didn't hit the right command or my video copier took a poop on me. Either way, here is the video, courtesy of Dulfy.net's Youtube channel. Thanks for all your hard work, Dulfy.

Video: HK-51 trailer

I know, I know, Bioware released HK-51's trailer a long time ago, but since 1.5 is so, so very close, I thought I would toss this out there so those who aren't on the Public Test Servers can ogle what they're waiting for.

Here are HK-51's stats, as of the Public Test Server release, if you're curious about them.




I am on the Public Test Server and finally got a group together to do Hard Mode Foundry so I should have a guide up on how you'll get HK-51 soon.

For those hoping to test the game, Bioware has pulled down the PTS and it looks like they may do a refresh and import some new people over to test for them - which is great, because it was pretty dead over there, which is bollucks for finding bugs. So if you get copied over, please come help us test. 

Update: I finished! Now you, too, can collect HK-51's components.

“Star Wars: The Old Republic” companion bio: Not available yet. There is a datamined version on TORHead.com which reads, “The droid designated HK-51 is cold, calculating and incredibly lethal. Housed in a sleek body resembling an antique Systech Corporation protocol unit, this HK-series assassination droid lay dormant in the hold of an Imperial vessel for many years. Whatever HK-51's original programming dictated, he pledged absolute loyalty to his new master upon his reactivation.

HK-51 is a model of ruthless efficiency. His assassination protocols deteriorate unless they are put to frequent use. This leads to a constant acquisition, pursuit and permanent removal of qualified targets that would be seen as an obsession in any living being. Beyond expressing pride in successful assassinations, HK-51 has little patience for the trivial emotional problems of organics.”

This could be changed at anytime before the SWTOR 1.5 update releases HK-51 on the main servers.
