Star Wars Challenges Guide
Deal damage with a lightsaber (100)
You can find lightsabers in the futuristic blue chests that now spawn around the map. They are kind of rare, so you might need to look around for a while. Here's what the chests look like in-game:

Raise your banner to capture TIE fighter crash sites (1)
There's crash sites scattered around now after the event, you can find five of them on the map below. It appears you can only complete this challenge in Solo, Duos, or Squads (no Team Rumble).
One is just south of Steam Stacks, one is northwest of Salty Springs, one is north of Holly Hedges, one is north of Retail Row, and the last one is southwest of Slurpy Swamp.
First Order Stormtroopers
You will need to make sure to have some weapons before you head into the area. First Order Stormtrooper spawn around them and they will fire at you. Take them out and they will drop the First Order Blaster Rifle you need to complete some of the other challenges. Eliminating the Stormtroopers counts for another of the challenges. Once you've cleared out the area, head over to the flag and hit the use key on it. You will then raise up the new banner and complete the challenge.
Block damage with a lightsaber (50)
Once you have a lightsaber, you can press the aim button (right click or left trigger usually) and block while you have it out. As long as you are facing the target that is shooting at you, you will block the incoming damage.
First Order Stormtrooper eliminations with a lightsaber or from beyond 100m (1)
It's probably easier to just shoot them from 100m, but it's probably more fun to use a lightsaber and block your way in close and slice them up!
Deal damage with a First Order Blaster Rifle to opponents or First Order Stormtroopers (200)
You can obtain a First Order Blaster Rifle by eliminating the First Order Stormtroopers at the various TIE Fighter Crash Sites!
