Balance changes not coming out with the new level cap means that a Qui Gon Jinn leader should be quite monstrous for at least a period of time. There are actually a lot of interesting changes/enhancements to abilities between 70 and 80 and I'm pretty hyped if a little concerned about my credit supply.

Chilichimp posted:it'll probably take 2 days at least to go up to 71 etc, so you're looking at close to a month just to hit 80. I don't think credits will be a problem. They'll scale the cost to the energy of the xp. No matter how long it'll take I bet it's about as much credits as 6 chars 7 at the most going 70-80.

Oh boy, got 4 million in the bank, with 7* promotion for ahsoka, 6* for barris and res pilot, 5* for old Ben etc coming up  Hopefully better off than a lot of dudes in the <200 bracket though. GW is going to get... "Interesting".

Getting from gear 1 to VI costs... like 200 energy? Because lets be real, you've got the poo poo in your inventory to go from 1-5 1/2 Edit: For 10 dollars you can buy enough crystals to purchase 1,050,000 credits from data cards with 150 crystals leftover.(That's 3 50's or 1 100 and 1 50... with all of the sim tickets that go with it) This "deal" is hilarious, and I can't believe how nakedly obvious it is that they put no thought into how they monetize in-game items.

The only people that could conceivably buy that are people who are just starting out and don't know any better, which seems like a good way to piss off potential new players once they realize what they wasted their money on.

Exactly. The more that I've played Future Fight, the more I get about what Zotix was always saying. For $11, over a month you get one hero from 1* to 6* (max - or partially star a bunch of heroes) and about 2200 crystals, which you get a lot out of. The economy behind SWGoH is just ridiculous. On the plus side, I don't feel the least bit tempted to spend more money.

On the plus side I went 5/5 with my new team over the day without loosing any challenges ending at 2 starting at 37. Dooku lead QGJ FOTP Rey Poe I went out of my way to fight other Poe teams something I never would before.

Chilichimp posted:I kind of want to stop playing, but... idk. Yeah, I'm trying to farm RG, Rey, FOTP, Daka, and Ewok Elder, and I just got Poe to 6* so I'll probably leave him there for awhile, put that energy into stun cuffs instead. I've probably got 3 months on RG, so I'm not too worried about running out of HM nodes anytime soon. I also kinda want Anakin and Ahsoka, but I want to see how many materials I need to grind out for G8/G9 first, and what kind of heroes we can farm in the level 8 missions. E: Someone posted a big spreadsheet on reddit/the forums about how to get yourself to level 80 the fastest. They basically recommend putting your crystals into stored energy so that when the patch comes out, you can rush to 72 pretty quickly and get in on those sweet challenges. Honestly, I only think it will speed up getting to those challenges by a day or two, but if you want to sperg out, be my guest. I intend to keep getting gear and shards. https://www.reddit.com/r/SWGalaxyOfHeroes/comments/4c5vob/whenhow_much_to_stockpile_and_when_will_you_hit/ Malgrin fucked around with this message at 23:13 on Mar 27, 2016 |

They nerfed this a bit, as the reserve energy is capped at a certain point, but you can certainly do that. I personally think it would be a crime to miss that many days of hard mode farming.

I dunno about everyone else, but I've still gotten 0 heroes from this droid event, only shards. I just finished collecting shards for 86, and am very close to Eeth. I think I will finish out Assaj's 7th, and then I am leaning towards getting Phasma from GW, but with the incoming changes to advantage I am skeptical. So far, I've maxed Lumi, RP, Poggle, and now 86. Also tempted to do Biggs, but he just seems so weak (statswise, 86 is better unless Biggs takes a crit, and then isnt he just dead?...and then there are droid synergies). Also, magma looks so bad, I would want him if he had a flamethrower, but he doesn't. Syrinxx posted:Got my waifu Ahsoka up to 70 but she's kind of disappointing at 4*/GL VII. Does she improve much with more star levels? Working on a Jedi GW team and the Yoda thing I think she's still in the general range of Assaj, not terrible, pretty good in GW, but a pretty far cry from arena meta. With the supposed incoming changes though, the two of them could move into the arena meta.

Working on a Jedi GW team and the Yoda thing She gets better, but make sure Daring Padwan is at 6 or higher. That lets you lose the buffs if you get hit with a crit in this order +crit then +spd then +health. At that level she gets +45% health +45 speed an +10% crit.

Apparently the planned date for the level 80 update is this thursday. So, prior to the update I'd recommend using a minimum of energy and also don't collect your dailies.

Davethulhu posted:Apparently the planned date for the level 80 update is this thursday. So, prior to the update I'd recommend using a minimum of energy and also don't collect your dailies. Assuming you're all level 70, you can have a max of 129 energy. They've generally pushed out updates around 6pm EST, so I would expect this to happen either then or in the middle of the night Wednesday night/Thursday morning. Hopefully they will give us more info before then. Anyways, it takes ~25 hours to save 129 cantina energy, so I would plan to use up cantina energy Wednesday morning so that you are near max Thursday morning (around whenever you'd be waking up anyways). Then, if the patch isn't out yet, plan to spend about 30-40 cantina energy so that you'll still be near full around 6pm EST. Regular energy is a bit harder to plan out because of the free energy, but it takes just over 12 hours to max out, and then subtract 4.5 hours from that for each bonus energy time in between. If that's too much work to think about, don't bother because an extra 200 xp isn't going to make a huge difference. However, make sure to not spend crystals until after the patch on Thursday, and don't collect any quests you've finished. This'll give you a pretty good bump in xp. I've saved up 2500 crystals, and for the next couple days, I think I'm going to cut my crystal use down to 50 for regular energy, and 50 for arena if it's worth it. It's going to suck only getting half a cantina turn in per day, but I'll only be doing that for a couple days. Since I usually get 300 crystals per day, I'm counting on spending 600 per day on refreshes (300/300 - 720 extra energy/xp) until I hit level 72 (or run out of energy - but I think this will only take 3-4 days), and then dropping down to 100 cantina/300 (600 extra energy/xp) until I am down to spending only what I make.

Wait you can save your daily rewards and still do the next days? Also while I am cheerleading for ashoka he passives apply after leader buffs. So with daring padwan at 6 she had 153(maybe 152) speed. With Barris lead poo poo gets comical she tacks on Barris hp% buff the buffs that amount by 45%. Also as I said if you run her you want daring padwan at 6 min so she can take one critical hit without losing her speed buff. Having that extra speed means it is easier to get the passives back up.(1 kill reenables all 3 parts of the passive) Oh and all of her heals scale based on current max HP. xyigx fucked around with this message at 13:26 on Mar 29, 2016 |
