Source: current SWTOR Flashpoint level chart ↗ · Master group encounters are designed for level 80, even where manual entry is possible earlier.

Mode and story notes: Story/Solo from level 55+ with Combat Support Droid. Veteran manual level 15–80, Veteran Group Finder level 53–80; Master Group Finder at 80. For Shadow of Revan progression, FRONTAL ASSAULT must be active alongside [STORY] Battle of Rishi.

  1. 01

    Complete the prior Shadow of Revan Rishi missions

    BATTLE OF RISHI comes after BLOOD HUNT, THE REVANITES REVEALED, PATH OF BETRAYAL, LINGERING HATE and TO DISRUPT THE ORDER. Advance the planet's purple quests until FRONTAL ASSAULT gives you [STORY] Battle of Rishi.

  2. 02

    Check the Frontal Assault tracker

    The outer quest FRONTAL ASSAULT must read COMPLETE FLASHPOINT: BATTLE OF RISHI. A separate repeatable [STORY] Battle of Rishi does not complete the story by itself.

  3. 03

    Fly to Rishi or use the nearest travel point

    Go to RISHI and use Raider's Cove or the RISHI VILLAGE travel/taxi if unlocked. The instance lies on an ISLAND TO THE NORTH OF THE MAIN SETTLEMENT. If you have not visited it, descend the dock ramp and take the TAXI to the northern island.

  4. 04

    Find the northeastern island entrance

    Follow the purple mission marker to the BATTLE OF RISHI colored doorway. A prior story mission with Frontal Assault active lets you walk in directly.

  5. 05

    Repeatable Story questgiver: Jerwoh Vhob

    Near the entrance talk to JERWOH VHOB and choose START STORY MODE, available at level 55+. For repeatable solo runs, Activity Finder → SOLO → BATTLE OF RISHI → TRAVEL is faster.

  6. 06

    Use correct group difficulty

    GROUP → VETERAN FLASHPOINTS → FILTER → BATTLE OF RISHI is for level-eligible four-player repeats. It does not advance the Frontal Assault quest. Choose Story to continue the narrative.

  7. 07

    Resummon support droid if necessary

    Click the BLUE SUPPORT DROID BUTTON beside [STORY] Battle of Rishi or use its Mission Items inventory item to bring the droid back.

02 · OBJECTIVE-BY-OBJECTIVE WALKTHROUGH

Where to go and what to click next

  1. 01

    Reach the Revanite Camps

    Enter the northern island and follow REACH THE REVANITE CAMPS. Stay on the marked jungle path until your journal identifies the first cache objective.

  2. 02

    Destroy First Camp Revanite supplies

    At CAMP ONE RIGHT-CLICK GLOWING BLUE SUPPLY CRATES AND CANNISTERS until the first camp objective counter is finished. Killing defenders does not replace supply interactions.

  3. 03

    Destroy Second Camp Revanite supplies

    Continue toward CAMP TWO, remaining near cliffs and trees for safe navigation. RIGHT-CLICK ALL REQUIRED BLUE CRATES AND CANNISTERS in the second camp.

  4. 04

    Access the first Fenced Area

    When ACCESS THE FENCED AREA appears, find the GRATED DOOR and RIGHT-CLICK THE SMALL BLUE PANEL TO ITS RIGHT. The field will not drop from defeating enemies alone.

  5. 05

    Defeat Rarrook and Marko Ka

    Fight WOOKIEE RARROOK AND MARKO KA together. Kill S4-E SUPPORT DROIDS with GREEN HEALING BEAMS first, avoid red ground circles and bring both bosses low together.

  6. 06

    Use the elevator after the first bosses

    When the journal says ACCESS THE ELEVATOR, find the BLINKING BLUE BUTTON ON THE WALL BESIDE THE ELEVATOR and RIGHT-CLICK it. Do not backtrack through camp one.

  7. 07

    Reach the Revanite Bunkers

    Leave the elevator, follow the route toward the REVaNITE BUNKERS and find the first mission-marked console among the defenders.

  8. 08

    Slice the First Access Station

    RIGHT-CLICK THE FIRST GLOWING BLUE ACCESS COMPUTER in the bunker. You can clear the guards normally; stealth players can sometimes interact while hiding behind the terminal.

  9. 09

    Slice the Second Access Station

    Proceed to the SECOND separate mission-marked BLUE ACCESS COMPUTER and RIGHT-CLICK it. The first access station does not count twice.

  10. 10

    Deactivate the Force Field

    After BOTH access stations are sliced, find the shield-control point and RIGHT-CLICK THE BLUE CONTROL to DEACTIVATE THE FORCE FIELD.

  11. 11

    Access the second Fenced Area

    Continue to the next grated/secured area and activate the BLUE PANEL BESIDE THE FENCE GATE, opening the duel arena.

  12. 12

    Defeat Master Obai and Lord Vodd

    In the fight, watch the RED SCREEN WARNING FOR BALLS OF FORCE LIGHTNING. RUN INTO GLOWING FORCE LIGHTNING ORBS before they reach the central TOWER. Spread orb duty among team members in Master Mode.

  13. 13

    Reprogram the AA Cannons

    Continue after the duel to the highlighted ANTI-AIR GUNS and RIGHT-CLICK THEIR CONTROLS to REPROGRAM THE AA CANNONS as required by the tracker.

  14. 14

    Use the Access Door

    Once the AA cannon objective registers, use the GLOWING BLUE ACCESS DOOR to enter the final bunker complex.

  15. 15

    Defeat Shield Squadron Unit 1

    Fight SHIELD SQUADRON UNIT 1. When it casts ELECTRICAL MEGASTORM, RUN TO ONE OF TWO SHIELD CIRCLES and RIGHT-CLICK THE BLUE TERMINAL IN FRONT of it, producing a BRIGHT ORANGE PROTECTIVE SHIELD.

  16. 16

    Recall your companion into the shield

    Story companions may stand outside the safe circle. Move into the orange shield, use COMPANION PASSIVE (default CTRL+2) to pull them to you, then turn it off after the storm.

  17. 17

    Disable the Signal Jammer

    The last mission objective is DISABLE THE SIGNAL JAMMER. After Shield Squadron is defeated, RIGHT-CLICK THE HIGHLIGHTED JAMMER CONTROL, then exit when Frontal Assault updates.

  18. 18

    Continue the Shadow of Revan storyline

    Verify the purple FRONTAL ASSAULT mission progresses after jammer disablement. Follow its new story marker; clearing the repeatable boss alone does not advance the planet's main quest.

Optional activities: MASTER ONLY: Compounding Success requires TEN supply caches and TWO command bunker codes, then a northwest secret bunker containing Commander Mokan. Its Compound 17 stack mechanic is not required for normal Story or Veteran progression.

03 · COMBAT TROUBLESHOOTING

Boss mechanics without guessing

These descriptions cover the relevant objective, visual warning, controls and known failure points. Optional bosses are labeled and do not block the mandatory story.

ENCOUNTER 01 / 04

Wookiee Rarrook and Marko Ka

Where: First fenced camp after the two supply-cache objectives.

  1. 01

    Prioritize healer droids

    When S4-E SUPPORT DROIDS appear with GREEN HEALING BEAMS, destroy them before returning damage to the bosses.

  2. 02

    Avoid telegraphed circles and lines

    Both bosses create significant floor damage; do not remain in active telegraphs.

  3. 03

    Keep boss health near equal

    Killing one boss greatly empowers the survivor and increases the number of warning zones. Bring both low together when practical.

  4. 04

    Activate elevator wall button afterward

    RIGHT-CLICK the BLUE WALL BUTTON near the elevator before advancing.

Stuck here? The pair gets more dangerous when one dies early. Kill the healer droids and finish the bosses close together; use the BLUE ELEVATOR BUTTON to proceed.

ENCOUNTER 02 / 04

Master Obai and Lord Vodd

Where: Second fenced-area boss fight after two bunker access stations.

  1. 01

    Watch for lightning-orb warning

    Bright red text announces BALLS OF FORCE LIGHTNING moving toward the tower.

  2. 02

    Intercept the orbs

    RUN INTO THE GLOWING ORBS so they explode before reaching the tower.

  3. 03

    Spread orb duty in Master

    In Master, multiple orbs appear at once. Do not allow one player to accumulate five lightning-bubble stacks, which can kill them.

  4. 04

    Avoid other ground hazards

    Move out of red circles and triangular floor effects while handling orbs.

Stuck here? If the tower is overwhelmed, the group is letting LIGHTNING ORBS reach it. Intercept the orbs; in Master share the stacks.

Source guide with original game screenshots ↗

ENCOUNTER 03 / 04

Commander Mokan (Master bonus)

Where: Secret northwest bunker, unlocked by the Compounding Success Master quest.

  1. 01

    Complete Compounding Success

    In Master Mode destroy TEN REVANITE SUPPLY CACHES and obtain TWO COMMAND BUNKER CODES from hidden glowing pads.

  2. 02

    Open the secret northwest bunker

    After meeting the bonus objectives, RIGHT-CLICK its otherwise closed bunker door.

  3. 03

    Balance Compound 17 stacks

    For the deadly RED GAS RELEASE, players need THREE GREEN STACKS, but FIVE stacks automatically kill. Use ground circles or green syringes to add stacks.

  4. 04

    Remove excess stacks deliberately

    Heal/cleanse or use limited RED SYRINGES to reduce excess stacks, coordinating before the next red-gas release.

  5. 05

    Treat as Master-only

    The bonus boss is not required for Story/Veteran or the Frontal Assault storyline.

Stuck here? The red gas is a stack-check mechanic: THREE green stacks protect you; FIVE kill you. The optional bunker requires its Master-only quest and codes.

Source guide with original game screenshots ↗

ENCOUNTER 04 / 04

Shield Squadron Unit 1

Where: Final bunker after AA cannon reprogramming.

  1. 01

    Watch Electrical Megastorm

    When ELECTRICAL MEGASTORM begins, stop ordinary rotation and run toward one of TWO marked safe circles.

  2. 02

    Activate orange shield

    RIGHT-CLICK THE GLOWING BLUE TERMINAL IN FRONT OF THE CIRCLE. The protective field becomes ORANGE when active.

  3. 03

    Stand inside the safe field

    Remain WITHIN THE ORANGE CIRCLE until Megastorm finishes.

  4. 04

    Pull your Story companion to safety

    Use COMPANION PASSIVE near the shield to bring them inside if they remain outside.

  5. 05

    Disable the signal jammer after victory

    RIGHT-CLICK the HIGHLIGHTED SIGNAL JAMMER CONTROL after the boss is dead.

Stuck here? Surviving Megastorm requires interacting with the BLUE TERMINAL and standing in the resulting ORANGE SHIELD. Boss death must be followed by DISABLE THE SIGNAL JAMMER.

04 · FIND A QUICK FIX

Why the quest is not progressing

Where is the Battle of Rishi entrance?

It is on RISHI'S NORTHERN ISLAND, reachable by TAXI when needed. Find JERWOH VHOB by the door. It is NOT the eastern Raider's Cove Blood Hunt entrance.

Reference and original discussion ↗

I completed [STORY] Battle of Rishi but the expansion is not progressing.

You also need the purple FRONTAL ASSAULT mission active with COMPLETE FLASHPOINT: BATTLE OF RISHI. Destroy the final SIGNAL JAMMER, then continue the outer mission.

Reference and original discussion ↗

We cannot open the first fenced area.

Find the SMALL GLOWING BLUE PANEL TO THE RIGHT OF THE GRATED DOOR after destroying the supply caches at BOTH camps.

Reference and original discussion ↗

Why isn't the second forcefield opening?

SLICE BOTH ACCESS STATIONS (two separate blue terminals), then use the BLUE FORCEFIELD CONTROL. Clearing guards alone is not sufficient.

Reference and original discussion ↗

Our group keeps wiping to the lightning orbs.

During MASTER OBAI AND LORD VODD, INTERCEPT the glowing Force lightning orbs before they reach the tower. In Master Mode share stack accumulation between players.

Reference and original discussion ↗

Shield Squadron kills my companion when the room lights up.

During ELECTRICAL MEGASTORM click the BLUE SHIELD CONTROL, STAND IN ORANGE SHIELD, and toggle companion PASSIVE so they follow you in.

Reference and original discussion ↗

We defeated Shield Squadron but Frontal Assault remains incomplete.

The last objective is DISABLE THE SIGNAL JAMMER. Activate the highlighted JAMMER CONTROL before exiting.
