01 · IMPERIAL FLEET
Where to start Firefrost
On Imperial Fleet / Vaiken Spacedock, find the Combat Training sector and its glowing blue Uprising table. Choose the Story, Veteran or Master terminal, then select Firefrost. Accept or share the same difficulty with your party; choose a matching Weekly if desired. Use the shuttle icon beside the mission in your quest journal to enter, or use the shuttle in Inventory → Mission Items.
Not a solo Flashpoint: Story means easier four-player content, without the scripted Flashpoint combat support droid. Manual group entry is available. Activity Finder playlists have changed between updates; the Fleet mission table remains the dependable place to select any named Uprising. If starting a new Uprising after abandoning another, the group leader can right-click character portrait → Additional Commands → Phase → Reset All Active Flashpoints, but this loses progress in the previous phase.
02 · OBJECTIVE-BY-OBJECTIVE ROUTE
Where to go, what to click, and what comes next
Follow these numbered steps in order. Controls are called out where defeating enemies is not sufficient to move the quest forward. Do not confuse optional achievements with required doors or boss phases.
- 01
Go down the starting elevator together
WAIT for all four people before clearing the first factory room; early waves can continue to spawn.
- 02
Fight through White Maw factory
Clear the required initial groups and reach REFACTORED BATTLE DROID.
- 03
Defeat Refactored Battle Droid
Follow active markers, moving away from danger; the next objective is to disable TWO shield generators.
- 04
Disable EAST shield generator
In EAST ROOM RIGHT-CLICK the GLOWING BLUE GENERATOR SWITCH.
- 05
Disable WEST shield generator
In WEST ROOM RIGHT-CLICK the GLOWING BLUE GENERATOR SWITCH. Both controls must be disabled.
- 06
Pass the opened yellow door
When both generators are shut down the YELLOW DOOR opens toward Forgemaster Droub.

Break JS-MW1 walker's shield
When WALKER is immune kill FOUR TURRETS; Droub repairs them, briefly exposing the walker.

Kill walker then Forgemaster Droub
Finish JS-MW1 while vulnerable, then face DROUB'S ORANGE CONE away from team and avoid RED CIRCLES from exploding smaller droids.
- 09

The step-by-step route above explains the mechanics alongside the point where you actually encounter each boss. Encounter labels can include a wave or objective rather than a conventional single boss.

04 · TROUBLESHOOTING
When the mission will not advance
Why does the next door not open?
Check whether your current objective requires a remaining enemy wave, a glowing blue console, or a temporary ability. Work through the numbered route instead of attempting to skip the locked door.
Is Story mode a solo story instance?
No. Story is the easier FOUR-PLAYER UPRISING difficulty; experienced players can sometimes solo one with an appropriate companion, but this is not the supported Solo Flashpoint style.
Where are the original in-game screenshots?
