Here is my Game Update 6.0 Amplifiers Guide.
FULLY UPDATED FOR ONSLAUGHT
What are Amplifiers?
Amplifiers are a brand new supplementary Stat System that have been introduced to The Old Republic in Game Update 6.0, Onslaught.
It’s basically a bonus stat applied to gear shells, some modifications and left side gear pieces. These bonus stats can be recalibrated as many times as you like for a credit fee.
It is an entirely RNG based system not taken into account in balance targets (eg. Operation Boss DPS targets or PvP Bolster). It is entirely a bonus set of Stats.
Amplifiers are located on the following armour pieces –
- Armour Shells (except Mainhands and Offhands, this is intentional)
- Armourings
- Mods
Enhancements(removed in 6.0)- Relics
- Implants
- Earpieces
Keep in mind that Armourings, Mods and Enhancements as well as Shells, Relics, Implants and Earpieces are all Bind on Legacy. Costs to remove modifications from Armour Shells remain.
The Amplifier Stat’s value varies based on a percentage or number which is entirely rolled at random. These percentages are divided into 4 tiers based on quality (by the colour of the tooltip). The colour order from minimum to maximum is green, blue, purple and gold. If the tooltip is gold, then you’re Amplifier is at the exact maximum percentage obtainable.
The minimum and maximum percentages for Amplifiers vary. Crafting Amplifiers and some Combat Amplifiers, for example, range from 0.10% – 1.50%. Other Amplifiers can go up to 5.00%.
Recalibrating (Changing) Amplifiers
You can change an Amplifier by recalibrating it. There are two ways to access the recalibration window. Via the Character UI or by right-clicking on a gear piece to modify it.
To access Amplifiers via gear, all you have to do is click on the Amplifier you wish to change in the Modification Window to open the Recalibrate window. Then click on the Recalibrate button. You typically get a choice between two new Amplifiers (though sometimes it only gives you one). The percentage or number that comes with the Stat is entirely random.
To change the Amplifier to a new one, just click ‘Update’ next to the new Amplifier you like and it will change the Amplifier on your Modification to the new one. If you do not like the options given to you, you can hit the Recalibrate button again.
If you can also access Amplifiers through the Character UI. A list of all the Amplifiers you have in your gear comes up. You can hover over each one to see it’s tooltip. Click on the square shape to recalibrate the Amplifier.
You can recalibrate an Amplifier as many times as you like, but the cost goes up each time you do. Every time you hit the Recalibrate button, you are charged the credits indicated on the button.
Recalibration Starting Cost
The starting cost to recalibrate for all slots varies depending on the quality of the item and does fluctuate slightly.
- Green – ~5,719
- Blue – ~11,310
- Purple – ~17,014
- Gold – ~20,170
The cost to recalibrate goes up incrementally.
If you exit out of the Recalibration window without picking a new Amplifier, the currently rolled Amplifier options will be lost. A dialogue warning box will pop up.
Amplifiers Lists
Below, you will see my Amplifiers tables. A specific Amplifier will only appear on one slot type. For example, the Medtech Amplifier is only found on Armourings/Hilts/Barrels.
Non-moddable armour uses the Armourings/Hilts/Barrels Table.
Armour Shells/Relics/Implants/Earpiece and Mods mainly have Crafting and various QoL/Utility Amplifiers. Armourings/Hilts/Barrels are mostly combat-related.

Current Unknowns
- Recalibrate Cost Cap – The highest recalibration cost I got up to was well over $4,000,000 Credits. I’m not sure if there is a cost cap as they mentioned there would be in the Spoils of War Stream. It is, of course, possible that they did not implement a cap (in PTS 1.5).
- Will RNG Protection Factor into Amplifiers? While they did discuss this in regards to gear acquisition (via various means) it is unknown if RNG protection will be factored into recalibrating Amplifiers.
