E: ^^^ I just did it and only lost QGJ because Yoda had a hate-on for him. Everyone at their max gear level before today's update, level 70, maxed out abilities and everyone but QGJ and JC at 7 stars.WebDO posted:So did they upgrade the difficulty, or is the six star challenge just stupidly hard for no reason? The event is difficult. I'm guessing they started it today so they wouldn't need to adjust the stats on it but I have nothing to really base this on. Unfortunately I'll have to wait until tomorrow to try the last stage for it. Holding off on spending Cantina energy today means that I have to wait for the shipments to refresh to get my last two QGJ packs. Anyone figure out what the "surprise" in this update is?

I might be crazy but there looks like there was some tuning done to daily challenges at least. I just didt he Boba Fett one twice and between both attempts he resisted literally everything (like with the actual word RESIST popping up) including four applications of damage over time and four applications of heal block. Typically on that one I just burn him down and ignore the drones and let Sid stick him with a healing block in case they get a turn. Sure you'd see the occasional resist but nothing like the 8 in a row I just got.

There's a lot of speculation that this is an elaborate April Fool's Day joke. Either CG is as clueless as we've been saying all along, or, they've got incredibly big balls.

Oh, found something else. Level 8 abilities now require a new material, it's gold. This will only be obtainable at level 80 after you've done your daily activities. Note that this is for all level 8 abilities, even ones that unlock at level 76.

So what is the point of cap raise then exactly, if we can't bump up abilities and most characters require unobtainable gear to get to IX, X etc.

I'd make a comment about them doing this but not adjusting the amount of tier 3 materials needed for lower levels but I feel like we're beating a dead horse at this point.

They ran out of gated content and are trying to slow things down to max revenue. They had to release the gates material faster than they anticipated.

Well, Capital Games is the developer, I dunno how much day to day control EA has. I do think this game ended up being rushed, as in, they didn't have all the content lined up for release, including gated content, and there were just way too many bugs. From there, it seems to have been a shitshow of inconsistency. I really thought they had a different update ready to go that they were hiding from us as an April Fool's Day joke or something. I mean, this update is SO bad, I just...I dunno. I mean, my above statement, yeah, but, it's been months since full release, I thought they'd have their poo poo together. Maybe we'll still see a reversal tomorrow, but I just don't know what to think anymore.

It is for sure that the game was rushed, and from the job listing CG has posted they are looking to expand their team so they may be understaffed, but I ultimately just think that the team working on this game is not very well versed in game development. They really do seem clueless on anything other than milking whales which is only working because of the specific IP.

I get that F2P games have to monetize, but it's amazing how aggressively these devs poo poo on non whale players. I was thinking I could make it to ships to see if the game would get better, but I'm not sure I'm going to make it.

I don't know if they buffed the final stage of the Yoda event but it definitely seems impossible. Yoda gets three turns per round, randomly just gets an extra turn, and gets an extra turn every time someone on your side dies. Oh and he hits for 6k and crits for 11k. And he's essentially immune to debuffs and keep in mind that his basic attack gives him an auto evade. Also I mentioned earlier about Boa Fett in the daily being essentially immune to debuffs and so far in my experience that seems to just be the case for bosses now. I manually did some Cantinas and literally every time a status would try to apply to a boss they would resist it. Further, every single unit I've hit with Sid's AOE has resisted both DoTs, boss or otherwise. ALSO Advantage was not changed. There is one bit of good news though, Yoda can't steal the new healing over time buff. E: I can also confirm FOTP triple shots are back.

I heard the Yoda 7* was hard, but that sounds legit impossible. Did they buff the 7* fight to be level 80? It cost 1.3 million credits to go from 60 to 70. I'm expecting 70-80 to take north of 3 million, maybe more. Are they planning on buffing credit rewards at some point to help players actually make enough to get a character that high?

It sounds like it's the same level of difficulty, which was fairly absurd before too. You apparently have to reroll until you get Barriss, and use her heal to take Yoda down low. Also, you have to remember that when the event was launched, one of the heroes (Anakin?) started with about 200 hp, which they quickly fixed. So, people who were ready for 7* when the first Yoda event came out had it really easy, and since then it's actually been a really hard event.

Yeah if you get Barris then you can get him low but she doesn't seem to pop up as often as say Lumi or Old Ben who will wreck you. The main issue right now seems to be that Yoda is more than happy to throw out 20k+ damage per round and if he decides to hit someone twice in a row then they are just dead and there isn't poo poo you can do about it. Which also gives him an extra turn and could allow him to ping pong off of your weakened dudes without you getting a turn. I've been able to get Yoda into the red twice now but it's a war of attrition that is hard to keep up. I kind of wish I had Barris instead of Plo just for the extra healing but that's still a reasonable reduction in damage output.

I'm getting close to the 6* challenge with Lumi, Eeth, QGJ, Barriss, JC. I think they're a pretty solid group. Not sure if Lumi lead or Barriss lead is better (evasion vs hp). I think I will have all 7*s in a month. Lumi/Eeth are 7* right now, QGJ is about 3 days from 7*, Barriss is about to hit 6, and JC is about 1/3 to 6.

I roll with Barris(L), QGJ, Lumi, JC, Eeth From what I understand, don't hit him with resistable abilities and keep everyone as topped off as possible and it'll all be okay.  I don't think I'll have QGJ to 7* before this ends, though, but I'm tryin'

  Nothing fancy, I just finally got one where Yoda didn't focus down one dude early on. Only lost Plo right before I dropped Yoda and then I was able to burn down Anakin before he went nuts and that left Barriss who couldn't do poo poo against my four man team. When Yoda was at about a third of his health I baited him with Plo's defense buff then stripped it off with QGJ and pounded him with everything I had. E: Also I got Jedi Consular in a Bronze pack after beating Yoda. He actually was the last dude to hit 7 stars (was at 99/100 right when I finished QGJ). One (miniscule) step towards Vader or Grievous I suppose.

How does the event work, exactly? Do I need a full team at 7* to unlock him, or does he unlock earlier and you have to beat the 7* battle to promote him to 7*?

Spakstik posted:How does the event work, exactly? Do I need a full team at 7* to unlock him, or does he unlock earlier and you have to beat the 7* battle to promote him to 7*? There are 7 tiers of the challenge, and you need 5 heroes at X stars or higher for each challenge. So, for the first tier, at a minimum, you need 5 1 star jedi, but you could do it with 5 7* jedi. You unlock him at the 5th tier (5* Yoda), so 5 5* Jedi. You need 5 7* Jedi to get 7* Yoda.

Yeah the event is 7 battles long and each battle requires a full Jedi team at the corresponding star level. So the first battle needs a full 1 star team, second one needs a full 2 star team and so on. On the fifth battle you get 5 star Yoda, sixth gets you 6 star Yoda, and seventh gets you 7 star Yoda.

It's also worth noting that while Yoda is fairly good, he may not be worth the time, resources, and frustration it takes to unlock him. It feels pretty good to have gotten him but I feel like I've neglected just about everything else over the last month or two.

There is a progression of 7 battles which require 5 jedi. The first one requires that all jedi be at least 1*, the second all must be at least 2* and so on. Yoda unlocks at the 5* battle. You'll get enough shards from the 6* and 7* fights to get yoda to 6* and 7* respectively.
