SWTOR: Maintenance Changed to Wednesday 5th Sept

After a week off maintenance, it’s back this week with a four-hour downtime on a different day. Due to the US Labor Day holiday, they’ve bumped the downtime back 24 hours to Wednesday evening. There’ll be a patch to download afterwards and we’ll post the patch notes once we have them.

Here’s the time conversions:

AEST: 5pm-9pm
AWST: 3pm-7pm
NZST: 7pm-11pm

Hi everyone,

We wanted to inform you all that due to the Labor Day holiday on Monday, September 3rd, 2012, we will be moving next week’s scheduled maintenance to Wednesday, September 5th, 2012.

We will be performing scheduled maintenance for four hours on Wednesday, September 5th, 2012 from 2AM CDT (12AM PDT/3AM EDT/8AM BST/9AM CEST/5PM AEST) until 6AM CDT (4AM PDT/7AM EDT/12PM BST/1PM CEST/9PM AEST). All game servers and SWTOR.com will be offline during this period. This maintenance is expected to take no more than four hours, but could be extended.

This maintenance is done in order to make general improvements and to check performance of the game so that we can continue to provide a consistent, quality experience. Quite often (but not always) after a maintenance period there will be a patch to download. After the maintenance, please login via the launcher to download the latest patch. If your launcher was open during the maintenance, you must close and reopen it for a fresh login.
