Dark Side/Light Side tokens

[Starmender]

As I understand, you get them when you increase a renown level when the side your're aligned with is winning. Is that correct? How much do you get per level? And is there any other way to get those tokens?

[ModerNertum]

You get 1 token per each renown rank lvl up.
Your side must match the winning side and a victory state must be running.

If your side does not match the winning side world bosses from the opposite side will spawn on certain planets during the victory state and you must kill them to get tokens for your side.

If you kill those bosses and your side matches the winning side you get no rewards for betraying your side.

Hope it helps

Thanks. I wish there was an easier way to get them. Guess I might as well forget about it. Really wanted that Arcann customization, but it's way too much time and effort.

There is no need of any special effort, just patience.

To get a token, you must:
* Be strongly aligned to the side you are fighting for.
* Level up a Renown Rank while your side is winning (not just victory state).

I just play the usual content and don't bother with any special farming or whatsoever. I've never killed any bosses and still get tokens. I just play the game and get them when I level up a renown level when my character is on the current winning allignment side. From time to time I check how many tokens I have and then buy what I want.

So to quote a certain jedi : Patience you must have, my young padawan.

And little bit reminder that the bosses is count as world boss so you need whole group to kill them

In my game I usually only get the tokens if I lvl up renown only while my side is winning and victory state is active (never noticed getting them if my side was just victorious or winning). This is why I commented that

I think I mentioned the "world boss" expression so OP should know if he/she is familiar with what a world boss is. And its an operation group, a basic group wont do it here.
Plus this bosses usually hit harder and are more challenging than the normal world bosses in the worlds

Yup the bosses are for groups of 8-16 players. You can get more people but only a max of 16 get loot. The DvL bosses are harder than the regular world bosses as well. Also when you do fight these bosses : win. Because if you lose and the group wipes then the boss despawns.
Pretty much the reason why many people don't bother with DvL bosses anymore. It's just not worth the effort. Hard to get a group for them.

And they spawn randomly and need to be searched

Yes, DvL world bosses are no longer really worth the time and investment anymore. Easier to get tokens naturally (as the DvL side that is winning usually goes back and forth anyway)
