Game Update 12 went live this week, but it's already time for Hotfix 12.1. All U.S. and European galaxies will be brought down at 2 p.m. PDT today for server maintenance and to implement the update.

Basically, the update just adds some Engineering Trader fixes, makes it so the Anakin Skywalker Replica Cybernetic Forearm can be bio-linked, and lets you craft Cybernetic Arms and Legs with two sockets. You can read the full release notes after the jump.

Star Wars Galaxies: Hotfix 12.1

Publish Notes, August 12, 2009

Engineer Trader

• Removed droid combat module command levels using the old expertise from combat modules (Flame Jet Level, Electric Shock Level, etc)
• Droid command cooldowns for all generic commands have been split into their own cooldown categories.
• Droideka Shield commands are now in their own cooldown group.

Content

• Anakin Skywalker Replica Cybernetic Forearm can now be bio-linked.
  • This bio-link will persist through crafting.

Cybernetics

• Cybernetic Arms and Legs can once again be crafted with 2 sockets. All Cybernetics crafted previously will now show 2 sockets once more, as long as you didn't put a skill tape in them.
