How do I get there?

First, go to the news terminal on the fleet, it should be around any of the four marked locations Watching the new broadcast will give you a new quest – The Gree Experiment/Gree Research Initiative, which asks you to head to Ilum western shelf and talk to the Gree Herald Droid.

  • Level 50+ characters can participate in the event. You will be downscaled to L52 for the event if you are L65.

Gaining Reputation

Reputation are earned by doing these daily missions or killing world bosses. All of the daily missions reward you with items that you can use to gain Reputation. Note that Reputation ranks are not cumulative (i.e. to reach the Newcomer rank, you need 2500 rep for Outsider and 5000 rep for Newcomer for a total of 7500 rep).

  • Gree Memory Chip (green) = 270 Reputation (180 for F2P players)
  • Gree Data Core (blue) = 630 Reputation (420 for F2P players)
  • Ancient Gree Artifact (purple) = 1440 Reputation (960 for F2P players)
Rank Reputation required
(per rank)
Reputation Required (cumulative) Weeks to Reach
(12000/week) Weeks to Reach (12600/week) Weeks to Reach (12672/week) Legacy Title Outsider 2500 2500 0 0 0   Newcomer 5000 7500 0 0 0 Gree Research Assistant Friend 7500 15000 1 1 1   Hero 10000 25000 2 1 1 Honored Silver Acute Champion 15000 40000 3 3 3   Legend 30000 70000 5 5 5 Perfect Gold Bisector

The trick for maximal reputation gain per week is to get close to the 12000 weekly reputation cap as possible and then consume a purple reputation item to go over. The maximum reputation gain without any reputation bonus is 11970/week or 11979/week with 10% guild reputation bonus.

swtor-max-weekly-reputation-calculations

You can go over the 12k weekly cap as long you use the last item <12k. The reputation gain over 12k are not lost.

Here is a handy chart you can use to see how much reputation and Gray Helix components you can gain. F2P players earn 50% less reputation.

Gamrokodavi-K is located in the Starship Graveyards, all the way on the east side of Hoth.To avoid fighting his guards, you can run into him while on a speeder and right click him immediately to start the conversation. After the cutscene ends, then immediately run out. This will allow you to not trigger aggro on the guards.

Voss – Lomasigaro-K

Lomasigaro-K is in the Old Path section of Voss. His guards are very tough to solo as they deal a lot of damage and put DoTs on you constantly. Try to the rush to cutscene trick I mentioned on Hoth. Otherwise, you may have to team up to dispatch the droids.

Lore Objects/Codex Entries

Fray Landing Memorial

While not related to the Gree event, this lore object has special significance to the revamped Ilum. On the very south end of the Western Ice Shelf, where the Republic base used to be, one can find a lore object called Fray Landing Memorial. This lore object is perhaps a reference to the Ilum back in the early days (patch 1.1, late Jan, 2012) where Empire players were able to push themselves into the Republic base and killing Republic players repeatedly due to the faction imbalance in the early days favoring Empire . This caused an emergency patch shortly after patch 1.1.

swtor-fray-landing-memorial-lore-object-2swtor-fray-landing-memorial-lore-object

To get to this memorial. players can get to the abandoned Republic base in the south via  tunnel on the south end of the contested area.

swtor-fray-landing-memorial-lore-object-4swtor-fray-landing-memorial-lore-object-3

Gray Secant

This lore object was mentioned earlier in the missions section but just incase you missed it. When doing [Daily] Advanced Testing/Advanced Analysis, you will encounter this object at the north end of the Gray Secant near the Core Testing Unit droids.

  • You will need to travel to 5 planets and kill specific creatures while having your Miniature Gray Secant out (you will need to re-summon it upon arrival to every planet).
  • Planets like Tatooine and Quesh are fairly easy to complete while planets like Alderaan and Balmorra can be extremely time consuming as the creatures you need are scattered all over.

1) Bormu – Balmorra

swtor-balmorra-bormu-junior-research-project-relics-of-the-gree-achievement-guide-3swtor-balmorra-bormu-junior-research-project-relics-of-the-gree-achievement-guideswtor-balmorra-bormu-junior-research-project-relics-of-the-gree-achievement-guide-2

  • Bormus are mostly located in Markaran Plains on the west side of Balmorra. This place is the best place to farm them for the achievement as there are 10+ Bormus in close proximity with a respawn timer of 4.5 minutes. Other Bormu locations are also listed for convenience.

2) Womp Rats – Tatooine

swtor-tatooine-womp-rats-junior-research-project-relics-of-the-gree-achievement-guide-2swtor-tatooine-womp-rats-junior-research-project-relics-of-the-gree-achievement-guideswtor-tatooine-womp-rats-junior-research-project-relics-of-the-gree-achievement-guide-republic

  • For the Womp rats at the Imperial speeder in Mos Ila, you will need to kill them before the guards get them.
  • For other Womp rats, it is best to not attack them first but rather run into them and let them aggro you. This is because Womp rats tend to spawn friends to help them but they won’t do that if you kill them in one hit.
  • Numbers inside circles indicate the number of womp rats you can find in that particular location.

3) Lraida – Alderaan

swtor-alderaan-lraida-junior-research-project-relics-of-the-gree-achievement-guide-7swtor-alderaan-lraida-junior-research-project-relics-of-the-gree-achievement-guide-6

  • There are two types of Lraida, regular ones and Bolraida.
  • Lraidas are scattered all over Alderaan but you may have the best result in Alsakan Lowlands. Respawn timer for these Lraidas is around 4.5 minutes.
  • A map of Alderaan is provided for reference for those who are unsure of the various sub-zone connections in Alderaan.

  • Lobels are literally everywhere on Quesh, which makes this planet very easy to complete. Lobels come in singles and in packs of 4-5 (packs seems to be more prominent in north part of the map).
  • Numbers inside circles indicate the number of lobels you can find in that particular location.

5) Acklay – Belsavis
