Star Wars: The Old Republic patched for the first time since the release of the conversion.  Official notes can be found here, and an unintentional bugged surfaced.

Patch 1.51 notes first:

  • New item added to Cartel Market: Experimental Flight Suit.  Can be equipped at level 1 by any character and costs 1,200 cartel coins.
  • Following items are currently on sale in the Cartel Market:
    • Major XP Boost: 25% discount (90 Cartel Coins)
    • Level 15 Chest Pieces: discounted 10% (135 Cartel Coins)
    • Medical Probes: 25% discount (375 Cartel Coins)
  • Cartel Pack White Color Crystals can now be utilized by any player

When you open your launcher you are confronted with the wonderful news of the bug and here is the dev posting:

There is currently an issue with companion stats not working properly with their equipped gear. This occurs whenever a companion is summoned after being dismissed. As a workaround to this, please unequip all gear on your companion, and then re-equip all of their gear again in order to get their proper stats back. You will need to do this whenever you summon your companion.


Please know that this is a priority issue for us and that we are working to resolve it as quickly as possible.
Thank you for your patience and understanding.

Hopefully, Bioware fixes this issue immediately because that bug is something more than a minor glitch in the game mechanics.  Admittedly, game is still playable but it is still HIGHLY annoying.
