Tatooine Dynamic Encounters

Dynamic Encounters are repeatable, time-limited quests in Star Wars the Old Republic. Many Dynamic Encounters are combat focused while others are whimsical and involve non-combat activities such as catching baby Tauntauns or herding Banthas.

Medium – Dynamic Encounters that take between 2-5 minutes.
Slow – Dynamic Encounters that take 5 or more minutes to complete.
