Swtor Speeder Guide

At level 25, you can get your first Speeder (vehicle or mount), at either Tatooine, the Republic Fleet, or the Imperial Fleet. The Speeder Vendor Barik at Republic Fleet – Carrick station is located in Galactic Trade Market (coordinates: -4564, -4841). Tatooine has a better selection of beginning Speeders. As you leave the Anchorhead spaceport, you will see the taxi and the Speeder vendor to your right (coordinates: 1865,-3285). Examples of the Speeders are found on the lot, but be warned; the Speeders you get may not look the same. All Speeders at Anchorhead cost 8,000 credits and add 90% to your speed. The pictures here are of the Speeders after purchase. Also remember that all details and pictures in this article are from the beta and are subject to change.
Befor you can ride any speeder you have to learn Speeder Piloting skill from your class trainer.

There are 3 Speeder Piloting ranks:

  • Rank 1 – costs 35,000 credits
  • Rank 2 – costs 150,000 credits
  • Rank 3 – costs 220,000 credits


Speeder’s characteristics

  • Speeders level 40 and 50 will give you good/excellent protection against being knocked off
  • None of the speeders gives you any other attribute than speed and protection against being knocked off.
  • Speeders will not protect you; if you take more than a couple hits of damage, the speeder will disappear, and you will be on foot, and in combat.
  • You cannot ride the speeder inside spaceports or other buildings.

    How does the personal transport which comes with the digital or CE relate to the speeders in terms of speed?

    • Comment by Morgaine made on December 19, 2011 at 7:48 pm

      They have the same speed as the other level-25 transports. The only difference, besides cosmetic, is that you don’t have to pay in-game credits to get it.

      • Comment by Steve made on November 21, 2012 at 5:37 am

        As of patch 1.5 this has been changed so that the speed of the one from the CE goes as fast as your highest level of speeder training allows.

  2. Comment by Reoh made on December 20, 2011 at 3:14 pm

    I can confirm that the PVP vendor in the open pvp area of Tatooine has special merc commendation requiring mounts you can pickup from the vendors in there.

    Also Quesh’s vendor has a brone looking “Artech Dagger” (like the others, but looks “used”).

    Oh and the blue rendel watcher is purchased from the vendor in tatooine.

  3. Comment by Willeye made on December 23, 2011 at 3:11 am

    I just bought the UBRIKKIAN HUNTER from Tattoine for 8000creds at lvl 25 it looks alot better then the other speeders 🙂

  4. Comment by Sadreus made on December 27, 2011 at 1:24 pm

    Any plans on adding the cybertech crafted speeders to this guide?

  5. Comment by Vorgier made on January 1, 2012 at 9:04 pm

    Still trying to figure out where the “Desler” speeders are. Anyone know?

    This guide needs working on.

    You should add in the Korrealis Baron & Korrealis Commander speeders that could be bought before 1.2.

    If you need in game shots of the Baron, I can supply you with some.

    Lhosan Thunderbolt dropped for me from Doctor Lorrick in Lost Island Hard Mode. I wouldn’t pay for it – it’s kinda hideous.

    Hello,
    I have trouble mounting a speeder and start cruising. What do I have to do?
    I already purchased a speeder bike and a license.
    Thank you and best regards,

    Marco

    • Comment by Lynl made on August 15, 2012 at 7:55 pm

      Where can you buy the 55k credit level 50 speeders? I have been all over and have only found the 150k or more ones.

  19. Comment by Drachonen made on September 3, 2012 at 2:35 pm

    I have seen players as low as lvl 15 on speeders, I thought it was lvl 25 before you got one, how do they get them that soon.

    • Comment by 12richy1 made on October 3, 2012 at 9:38 am

      it depends on legacy i think its when you pass chapter 3 all other characters can get a speeder lvl 10 but the cost of piloting goes through the roof considering your level

      • Comment by Zedgnar made on January 30, 2013 at 10:15 pm

        speeder piloting rank 1 is open to subs at 15 or with unlock at 10

  20. Comment by Prophet Of Vodal Kresh made on December 16, 2012 at 12:40 am

    Great guide for speeders i look it because i was having trouble whit the Speeder Piloting Rank 2, i was thinking they give you in lvl 30 or 35 but you are my new salvation for aclaritys in Stwor

    • Comment by Shrapnel made on January 3, 2013 at 8:35 pm

      Since the F2P changes a subscriber can get a speeder at level 15. No legacy needed. Non subscribers get it later. You get the Speeder Piloting skill from your class trainer for a moderate price (comparrible to other skills). You then just buy the speeder from a vendor for 8k credits or on the GTN for slightly more).

  21. Comment by Pri'ak made on February 24, 2014 at 4:26 am

    I also got a Rendili Fireball as a drop from Darth Malgus in The False Emperor HM

  22. Comment by Techhead made on March 10, 2024 at 6:06 pm

    This information about the speeder unlock is even more out of date than it was in 2013 with an earlier comment about this. Speeders now in 2024 unlock at level 10 for subscribers and level 20 for f2p. 25 is when subscribers get their first free speed increase, if anything at all.
