Kessel's widely mentioned in the books and referred to in the movies. It's not new, and as it's my understanding, the surface is pretty much uninhabitable. As it says on that page, it's a "lumpy asteroidal mass that can barely be considered a planet."

Despite possibly making the Spice Mines an instanced dungeon, I don't see how Kessel could be added.

As for the new icons, they're profession-specific.

If you want a new "nightmare planet," read up on Byss or Fondor. One's a planet completely sheathed in the Dark Side of the Force, and the other has been so completely stripmined that the surface is unstable and it's even harsher than Lok.

Not to mention Fondor is the site of the the Executor's construction, which would be in its advanced stages of construction and/or a few months' away from launch at this point. The Executor is so large that you WOULD be able to see the spacedock from the planet's surface.

Hoth. Nothing more to say

-Byss and Fondor. Good call How about Nkllon for that category?
-Hoth--at this junture in the SWG timeline--would be a poor addition. It would be fine, however, if the overacrching story was advanced beyond the Battle of Hoth.
-I personally think Bespin would make a nice addition, if Cloud City can be properly created. Not worth it if such an endeavour leads to Coruscant syndrome.
-Despayre would make for a decent quest-based location, I'd guess?
-Now, while they're not planets per-se, I'd like ot see more "deep space" (read: high level) zones, with more than just Star Destroyers to go after. Maw Installation, anyone?

I thought of a couple of other good planets today at work, but I've forgotten them. Except maybe Nar Shadda, Ord Mandell or Mon Calamari?
