Everything happening in Star Wars the Old Republic to celebrate May the 4th 2025.
Contents
Double EXP
From May the 1st until Midnight (12:00am) UTC May 16th, All Players experience a 200% (double) Experience boost for Character Level experience (up to level 80), Double Valor (PvP Level Experience) and Double Starfighter Requisition (Galactic Starfighter PvP Currency).
If you are here to experience the Story of SWTOR with minimal grinding/content, I suggest reading this guide as it sticks to all of the Major game storylines and ignores all grind/side content not relevant to the main story of the Old Republic:
B25-SAL Droid Reward
All players that log in between May 1st and Midnight (12:00am) UTC May 16th will unlock the Andor B2-EMO inspired B25-SAL Probe minipet for Free!
Like prior years, B25-SAL is uniquely painted gold and navy blue with a bright blue eye and green highlights.
B25-SAL is delived as Bound on Pick-Up, and is mailed to every current and future character on your account. B25-SAL can also be Unlocked in Collections for 10 Cartel Coins.
In-Game Events

Cartel Market Specials
Every single Cartel Market item in every ‘Inspirations’ catergory is currently on sale between 25-75% off. There is also a brand new Master the Fight: Storm I Edition Bundle for direct purchase on the official swtor.com website and steam for $99 USD.
Master the Fight Storm I Edition Bundle
Price $99.99 USD | $149.95 AUD
This is a real world bundle that costs $99.99 USD, in this bundle you are given:
180 days of subscription time,
5,500 Cartel Coins,
the Storm 1 Mount (rideable at level 1 and has a quick burst mode),
Primary Chrome Silver Dye (x5 per character) and Secondary Chrome Silver Dye (x5 per character). It will only be available until the 17th of June 2025.
The rough estimate or total cost in USD without the bundle is:
180 Days Subscription + 600 Cartel Coins every 30 days over 180 days $77.94 USD
5500 Cartel Coins $39.99
Mount – N/A
5x Metallic Dye Cost (if we consider all x10 dyes to be x5 full dyes) 8,750 Cartel Coins or approx $70 USD in Cartel Coins.
Total Cost of individual items (without mount) $ 187.93 USD
Therefore I only suggest this bundle IF you are a player that regularly buys the 180 days of subscription package as well as at least 5500 Cartel coins a year.
You save roughly $17 USD before Mount and Dye cost is taken into account.
