In this weeks Friday Feature, the folks at Star Wars Galaxies take a look at a new collection in Chapter 9: The Fury of Exar Kun which rewards players with the rattletrap, an instant travel vehicle.

Not all starships gleam like the Naboo Starfighter or pack the punch of a gunship, but these hardy ships get the job done. A new collection in Chapter 9: The Fury of Exar Kun rewards players with the opportunity to possess one of these dogged ships, the rattletrap, which fulfills its duty as an instant travel vehicle.

A Piece of Junk

Collectors have been scouring the galaxy for items of value, no matter how large, small, or even how dirty. The eagle eyes of the treasure hounds recently fell on crates of junk left behind in the starports of planets across the galaxy. Click on the crate to begin piecing together your new vehicle.

When the collection of parts is complete, your ship is ready to be built. You will be rewarded with a No Trade ship deed for your efforts.

The rattletrap is an instant travel vehicle that can get you to your destination in a pinch. The ship may be dirty and rundown, but she'll get you where you need to go.

I hate Instant travel vehicles because they symbolise everything that's ruining the game.

Is this a Chapter 9 limited-time ONLY "gift"? Or will this collection still be available when new chapters are introduced?

 

Thanks.

The artwork just keeps getting worse for anything new. It is really sad.

Really?  The art inside the Exar Kun instance is probably the best in the game so far.  Not sure what's wrong with the art on the new ITV...
