Types of missions[]
Aside from the normal Empire or Republic missions, there are other types of missions.
Area missions[]
Area missions are acquired when entering certain areas of a planet.
Bonus missions[]
Bonus missions are often given while doing missions. Completing these missions aren't necessary but give additional XP and bonus mission chains can give additional rewards.
Class missions[]
Class missions are specific to each class and drive the storyline throughout the game. Class missions will sometimes take place in class story areas. Class mission objectives are denoted by a purple triangle with a green center.
Exploration missions[]
Exploration missions are optional missions that can only be obtained when enabled so that new players won't be overwhelmed by the number of missions. To enable exploration missions, open the World Map and select the checkbox. Exploration missions are denoted by a yellow dashed triangle.
Companion missions[]
Companion missions can either be conversations that provide XP and influence or missions that have objectives that need to be met. Companions will indicate when they have a mission by an icon on their portrait saying they would like to speak in private or a mission icon over their head while on the player's starship or stronghold, or a cantina.
Crew Skill missions[]
Crew Skill missions provide a way of gathering crafting materials, gifts, and other goods at a cost. The list of available missions changes from mission to mission. Companions have a chance of failing the mission, returning with no reward. Both gathering skills and mission skills have missions available.
