[Game Update 5.2 - Known Issues]

I am unable to switch faction allegiance; I switched to Imperial side as soon as I finished my quest and did a few dailies. Since, I have not completed a daily mission for almost 48 hours and cannot switch back to republic (which is highly annoying since I cannot ally with all the Pub groups attempting the Colossus or Tyth). I also did not receive an Elara companion after finishing the main storyline on Iokath and choosing to ally with the Republic.

 

Same for all of this except I am Imp. I was just doing Pub side to get some experience and now I am STUCK! Really ruining my ability to queue for raids...I have to LEAVE Iokath just to get invited to Ops groups for raids outside of Iokath not to mention not being able to raid Tyth with my faction guildies...

[cant switch sides on iokath]

Same problem for me!

[Changing faction for Iokath-Dailies bugged ???]

I thought it was just me! I keep being stuck as a pub (which I did to get reputation...) Bioware please fix this!
