Your focus is to progress through your personal alignment by completing Embrace the Light and Turn to the Dark quests. Both count toward your weekly progression mission, so don’t worry about only focusing on one.

Completing Embrace the Light Alignment quests

The key to completing Embrace the Light Alignment tasks is visiting the Resistance Base and Rebel Outposts and performing specific objectives outlined in your quest log. These can include searching containers, learning Light Side Force Abilities, and achieving travel distance at these locations, among other objectives. Each time you finish these tasks, you’ll gain 3,000 XP and progress through your Light Side personal alignment.

Completing Turn to the Dark Alignment quests

Alternatively, if you want to channel your inner Sith and turn to the Dark side, your destination is various First Order and Imperial Outposts around the map. Much like Light side objectives, you’ll typically perform various activities at these locations, learn Dark Side Force Abilities, and discover POIs like Vader Samurai’s Solitude. These two factions stay far away from each other, and it’s up to you which you want to side with.
