DROIDEKA
- Fixed an issue that would occasionally cause the Droideka to shake uncontrollably when affected by Anakin’s Retribution ability.
- Fixed an issue where Droideka would occasionally get stuck in Overheated animation when using the Overload ability.
ASSAULT
- Fixed an issue where respawning or dying would incorrectly count as a kill for the purposes of the “Assault Vanguard” Milestone.

DARTH VADER
