FLASHPOINT WALKTHROUGH / IMPERIAL · TION HEGEMONY PART TWO · GROUP VETERAN

01 · GET INTO THE RIGHT INSTANCE
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: The Tion story is available at level 50+, but Lost Island has NO scripted Story/Solo combat mode. Manual Veteran is level 15+, Group Finder Veteran from level 50, Master Group Finder at 80. Bring a coordinated group for Sav-Rak's pipe buttons.
On VAIKEN SPACEDOCK, open the station map and find LORD VELNINE in the SUPPLIES section. Accept TROUBLE IN THE TION HEGEMONY to follow the linked Kaon → Lost Island story. If you want only a repeatable run, the story quest is optional.
Use the fleet INTERFLEET TRANSPORT elevator and take the taxi to ZIOST SHADOW, or use its direct Quick Travel destination if available. On the capital ship head for the TION MISSION HANGARS on the SOUTH side of the Mission Deck.
For the full two-part story, speak to the story contact in the Tion hangar and follow the green-story-phase briefing. Finish Kaon Under Siege and return to its story contact before accepting Lost Island.
For a manual run, speak to K7-22 in the Tion Mission Hangar, choose VETERAN MODE, and enter the nearby Flashpoint door. A pre-formed group should choose matching missions and difficulty.
At level 50+ the two-part story is available, but the Flashpoint itself has NO dedicated Story/Solo difficulty or combat support droid. It requires a group in normal play.
At level 50–80, use ACTIVITY FINDER → GROUP → VETERAN FLASHPOINTS → FILTER → Lost Island. Manual entrance is preferable if following the narrative quest or introductory cutscenes.
02 · OBJECTIVE-BY-OBJECTIVE WALKTHROUGH
Enter LOST ISLAND from the Tion Mission Hangars, travel to the laboratory approach and follow SEARCH FOR THE COMPLEX ENTRANCE. Putrid Shaclaw is an early encounter; stealth groups may bypass it if safe.
Follow INVESTIGATE THE SPECIMEN STORAGE COMPLEX. Stay clear of yellow circles and the GREEN CLOUDS they leave.
When the next security door is closed, look for its highlighted POWER CONTROL and RIGHT-CLICK it for REROUTE DOOR POWER. Kill only what is necessary to safely reach the control.
RIGHT-CLICK the BLUE START TERMINAL to activate LR-5. The targeted player takes the WHITE CIRCLE away from the group before it becomes a BLUE LIGHTNING DOME.
Follow the newly open route toward the PRIMARY RESEARCH LAB. Watch for lava floor grates and extra experimental enemies.
At the Sav-Rak area RIGHT-CLICK the SMALL BLUE BUTTON ON THE SIDE OF THE PLATFORM to ACTIVATE THE BRIDGE CONTROLS. This button may look insignificant compared with the boss arena.
Put SAV-RAK IN THE CENTER OF THE PLATFORM. On SMASH, ALL PLAYERS STACK DIRECTLY BENEATH HIM so they are not knocked into lava. When he jumps between overhead pipes, spread to the THREE BLUE PIPE BUTTONS and click to ignite a pipe.
After the boss phase, the journal can return to ACTIVATE THE BRIDGE CONTROLS. RIGHT-CLICK the small highlighted platform button again to open the onward route.
Continue along the completed bridge into the research complex. Optional Transgenic Sample Eleven requires six recordings and is not mandatory.
The lab door may appear not to glow: try RIGHT-CLICKING THE DOOR IN THE BLUE ROOM while LOCATE DOCTOR LORRICK is active.
Move the yellow/red circles away from the group before they turn into GREEN CLOUDS. Destroy the KOLTO TANK he activates before its creature is released; interrupt RAVAGE if possible.
After Lorrick's transformation and defeat, RIGHT-CLICK THE BLUE TERMINAL to DOWNLOAD DOCTOR LORRICK'S DATA before leaving. Return to the Imperial Tion story contact to finish the arc.
Optional activities: BONUS: collect SIX Doctor Lorrick data recordings along the route to thaw and defeat TRANSGENIC SAMPLE ELEVEN. It is optional, not the required laboratory door mechanic. Master Mode is considerably more demanding than the Veteran route.
03 · COMBAT TROUBLESHOOTING
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 / 05
Where: Early specimen-storage approach.
Do not stand in YELLOW FLOOR CIRCLES around the creature.
The circles become persistent GREEN CLOUDS; stay away even after the yellow warning disappears.
Stealth parties may bypass this encounter, but still must reroute the door's power.
Stuck here? Killing Shaclaw does not itself restore the door. Look for REROUTE DOOR POWER.
ENCOUNTER 02 / 05
Where: Locked-door laboratory chamber; activate with blue terminal.
RIGHT-CLICK the glowing BLUE TERMINAL to spawn/activate LR-5.
The WHITE PLAYER CIRCLE becomes an enduring BLUE LIGHTNING DOME. Carry it toward an empty part of the room.
INCINERATE builds damage stacks while it channels. Interrupt early, not after three ticks.
Kill escaped smaller creatures as necessary while avoiding the LAVA GRATES.
Stuck here? Repeated deaths to lightning usually mean the targeted player dropped its future dome beneath the group. Relocate before the circle stops following.
ENCOUNTER 03 / 05
Where: Bridge platform above lava and pipes.
Tank Sav-Rak at the VERY CENTER between health stations.
At red warning text SAV-RAK SMASH, everyone moves DIRECTLY UNDER THE BOSS, or the knockback throws them into lava.
During his pipe-jumping phase, distribute players across THREE BLUE BUTTONS and repeatedly RIGHT-CLICK to heat the pipes.
Use the SMALL BLUE BRIDGE CONTROL ON THE PLATFORM after the fight to progress.
Stuck here? If players fall into lava, reposition Sav-Rak dead center and stack directly underneath him before the Smash. If the hallway stays blocked, click the small bridge-control button.
ENCOUNTER 04 / 05
Where: Frozen experimental specimen after collecting six data recordings.
Find and RIGHT-CLICK SIX HOLORECORDINGS as you progress through the lab, including the final one near this chamber.
A stacking cold debuff means STAY MOVING or you will freeze.
Keep moving to avoid falling ice while fighting.
Stuck here? Sample Eleven stays frozen unless all six recordings are collected. It is optional.
ENCOUNTER 05 / 05
Where: Primary Research Lab final chamber.
YELLOW TO RED targeting marks turn into persistent GREEN DAMAGE CLOUDS. Do not overlap them near your allies.
When Lorrick jumps to a KOLTO TANK, destroy that tank before an experimental creature emerges.
Use interrupts or defenses when his RAVAGE locks a character.
After transforming, he emits green hazards. Finish the boss while moving out of those zones.
RIGHT-CLICK the BLUE DATA TERMINAL after the fight.
Stuck here? The boss dying is not final completion. DOWNLOAD DOCTOR LORRICK'S DATA at the blue terminal.
04 · FIND A QUICK FIX
Return to ZIOST SHADOW → SOUTH TION MISSION HANGARS, complete the intervening story briefing and speak to K7-22 for Lost Island.
Look for REROUTE DOOR POWER. Later, inside the blue room before Lorrick, the door may still be clickable even if it does not glow.
Have the tank center SAV-RAK and EVERYONE stand directly UNDER HIM on the red Smash warning. Otherwise they are knocked into lava.
Click the SMALL BLUE BUTTON along the platform side for ACTIVATE THE BRIDGE CONTROLS.
RIGHT-CLICK the BLUE TERMINAL for DOWNLOAD DOCTOR LORRICK'S DATA, then finish the separate Tion story handoff.
