Mal, what if you dropped Palp for Lando? That was the team I was considering since my Palp is only 5*.

I've considered it. 5 man rebels is cool, but I feel like you want a dispeller, palp, or both. If I miss shock on STH (or AA removes it), things can go bad quickly. I would farm ip B2 for this reason, but I really want to get finn, finish speed challenge, and then farm speed mods for the next year...

I'm also working on Ani, I have his shards but his gear is quite the grind. Ani + B2 is pretty crazy synergy, especially after you throw in STH or RG. Add Lando and Palp and you've got a fucks with everybody team comp.

Hi, looking for a guild invite. I posted my info in the spreadsheet as well:

That was an interesting tournment, I think it was a lot less auction than most expected. On my shard there were only 3 going for the top...

#4 had 7.9k
#3 had 10.0k
#1 had 10.1k

Whoever hits #1 will probably not monetize much next time, and I bet all the top 3 will just want to finish the character. First time on a new char expect big spending but after that it'll calm down a lot.

Half a Shoretrooper but enough credits to get my RG up to 80 at least so I'm not mad.

But speaking of being mad, gently caress Palpatine so much. That is all.

You care about Nebit if you want crit damage mods (you want them).

Protip for the next time the tournament rolls around. Don't join in right as it becomes available. Wait as long as you can before the first reset, so you don't get grouped up with the tryhards who jump in right as it starts.

Someone in IGD said their tournament shard had a guy at over 30k, and he had every character in the game at max level and gear level. I almost don't believe it, but I should know better than to doubt whales.

Also, 18 of the top 20 were in the same guild on my shard. I heard something about win trading by putting up weak teams/removing mods? Fortunately I was on a little newbie shard so I was able to get top 100, but my gear rewards were total trash. :smith:

They're planning on removing the win trading thing on the next tournament, probably by locking your defense squad for 24 hours or something like that.

The bad news: next week the level cap is going to 85.
The good news: the new raid should be coming this month, and it will use a different currency than the existing raid.

Rex is rough for a rebels squad. I usually auto rex with my first biggs/wedge attacks so that sth can go taunt. If they have dispellers though, you might want to go for a more stun comp like rg and palp -- gotta land stuns on rex, murder him, then keep the rest of the squad stunned.

As much as wiggs are really good, I've been considering moving back to AA, palp, rg, sth, lando. Double tanks are good right now, and rg packs a stun.

I don't think I can handle a level cap increase. Not with so many characters. After that they will raise the gear cap.

That was me, here is the guy in question: https://swgoh.gg/u/skykr%E4k/collection/

He ended up with something like 33k points. The 2nd place / $3k guy also said he basically didn't sleep for the last 24h.

FYI, the guy I linked isn't event the only maxed out dude. Gaze upon the true whales and weep:

Edit: also, they said they are going to max out all guilds raid points when the new raid drops. Might be a really good time to start an alt account or two and make a few guilds

Don't forget there is a 24(48?) hour cooldown upon joining a guild before you are allowed to receive raid rewards.

Heh, good point. Honestly it's not nearly as bad as last time, we've been 80 for over half a year. Also according to reddit the new raid is only going to drop the new gear, no 6* or 7* mods.

I really haven't been playing this much at all lately, especially since most of my mobile gaming time is going towards Brave Exvius. The sunk cost really isn't keeping me interesting and I don't really care about any of the new stuff they've announced.

I'll try and remember to get on to donate as much of my raid gear as I can, but if I need to be booted for a guild slot for someone else, that's fine.

I've been farming mods for a week now and I still haven't found a speed arrow or crit damage mod. As a matter of fact, I haven't found ANY slot 4 mods in I think 3 days now. At this point I'd even take non-crit damage whites for slot 4 because I have characters with nothing there. God this is frustrating.

I hope they don't spike the cost to get to the new level cap. Seriously this better not make the game a giant credit/droids crunch again because that poo poo was miserable.

If I can get more than 2 stuncuffs a day I'll go to level 900. It's been weeks and I have 19! 19 !!!!!!! I need 100!

I'll seven star Wedge before I get enough cuffs to get him to the next level. I'll probably seven star the next character to come out, too.

Well, shit.
Has it been confirmed whether all of the currently missing gear slots for characters will be filled with new gear, or are some of them potentially going to be filled with existing gear? Would be nice to know if I should be stockpiling raid gear rather than gearing up my C squad.

Davethulhu

I think they've said that at a minimum every existing blocked gear slot will get new gear. However, who knows what the recipes will look like. Since this is dropping next week, you're probably safe holding off on using potentially valuable gear on C listers.

The new gear slots will be filled with stuff you get from the new raid. You'll still need to raid the rancor for those older pieces too as they won't appear in the newer raid. stun cuffs and the like might appear in dailys.
