• you have to collect 150 Elder Tributes to first get the Initiate Elder Robe
• then collect 420 Elder Tributes to get the Disciple Elder Robe - (Elder Tributes roll over to next level)
• once you have the Disciple Elder Robe, this unlocks the Galactica Elder Mission to get the Galactica Elder Coin
• upon entering the Elder Church at either DSEC9/MoM or Toulan, this mission will be listed on the pop-up mission list
• if you do not have your Disciple Elder Robe yet it will not appear
• this mission is listed above and is not a quick run, it's more like an epic run and will take you a while to accomplish it
• once you have achieved getting your Galactica Mission Elder Coin, the hand-in is part of the Howling Mines Space Mining release, but MA announced today that this release was moved to the 1st Qtr 2025
• this coin is tradeable

ALERT ... trying to borrow someone's High Priest/Priestess Elder Robe to unlock missions will not work ... it's the 5th and final Elder Robe and the only tradeable Elder Robe, but it won't work if loaned to anyone else. You will only benefit from the increased carry weight of 30kg, but other than that, this final Elder Robe won't be useful to anyone else.
