Changes to the Officer class highlighted in latest Star Wars Galaxies video

Game Update 5 to Star Wars Galaxies went live earlier today, but there have been a number of changes to the game over the last few months. So much so that Sony Online Entertainment wanted to be sure we understood some of the most drastic changes to the Officer class. Previously a competent ranged DPS stand-in, the Officer is now a highly specialized aggro management and group organization mechanism.

Check out the video for full details on these class changes. They include several methods of redirecting mob attention where the Officer wills it, a unique rally point ability that allows players to teleport right back into the action, and the ability to 'toggle' buffs onto the group for ongoing benefits. As per usual, the video is below the cut.
