ShowTime posted:I don't really understand why restarting would be beneficial when I have this much stuff already. I think i'd rather just quit if restarting is my only option, which it doesn't seem to be. I get that, but by using the knowledge you have, and starting a new game, you'll probably go straight to top 200. When you first join arena (level 28 now?), it puts you in a group of people that all started at the same time as you (within a couple days). By restarting, you get into a new group and can immediately start climbing and working on the heroes that are actually good in this game. For the most part, Jedi are pretty worthless until level 85, at which point you can put together a jedi group that you can climb with, but will still fall between arena payouts. Additionally, by restarting, you can temporarily change the time zone of your account (to something in an ocean, whichever is closer, or mountain time, if you prefer) to reduce the amount of competition you face at payout. While you already have a bunch of stuff, all that stuff has an opportunity cost of not having other things, like rebels and imperials, the base of any good starting team. Since you don't have those, by the time you do, the goalposts will have moved further. If you're still playing this game in 3 months, those two weeks of "lost" time won't really matter and you'll be farther along. Arena is the primary way to get crystals daily, and you're going to have one hell of a time catching up to the other f2p people on your shard (whereas you won't catch up with people that dropped money for quite a bit longer). If you don't mind just dinking along where you are, work on your rebels and imperials -- look through the OP, I even wrote a section for priority heroes and where to get them.

That's kind of depressing actually. I guess I didn't realize this game was like that when I started playing. I thought the thread title was a joke but boy does it seem accurate now.

Is there a relatively low gear requirement darkside team that requires no zetas? I am really only looking to clear the darkside hard nodes so its not for arena or anything like that. Haven't really put much into dark side so I am open to anything that is not going to cost me 6 months of gear farming.

Hey guys, I want to join a goon guild. I'm level 81 with 12 7* (droid teams, jawa team + poggle, boba, ackbar) Hopefully I don't cast to the ALT guild, I play pretty often so no worries about guild contributions. (Does that matter to most guilds? The one I'm in now bitches at people all the for not reaching goals. 267-181-822

More daily energy = more raids = more guild coins. Guild challenges just make for more guild coins. Something Maulful is full right now, I think there might be space in QGJ

Chilichimp posted:EP and imps + boba fett, borrow darth vader Thats not to bad I have boba/ep/rg all at gear 9. my next highest imp is tfp and magma, at 8 and 7 the rest are not geared or leveled really so if there is a better choice than magma I can replace him pretty easy. I probably should replace RG but other than shore(not unlocked) I am not sure who to use. Edit oh yeah if I want to drop a second Zeta on my R1 team suggestions between Cassian/K2S0/Jyn(stun impunity)? Or just save it? xyigx fucked around with this message at 08:18 on May 31, 2017 |

Alternatively, you could run old daka with them for heal/rez to help 3* missions.

I was using EP (L), Vader, Kylo, TFP and Shore in arena but for shits the other day I swapped out Shore and TFP for Wiggs to deal with a Nihilus-lead Dooku and permanently jumped 100 into the 200s, lol

I pulled Lobot from a free card. What is a dumb gimmick team to use him in for an early GW node? I have a lot of gimmicky characters unlocked thanks to cards and free giveaways at this point and usually don't burn them early enough and they aren't very helpful by the time node 9 rolls around...

There are 3 characters that specialize in being leaders for droid teams (HK-47, Poggle, Lobot). Lobot is by far the worst.

Lobot was my first chromium pack grab. Couldn't use him once he's so bad. Only good for cleansing challenges if you have nothing else.

Thing I learned: if you get a notification that scoundrel packs are available in the shop, and there's no event, restart your client. It'll either be a credit heist or training droids.

I can only ever get 2.5 million, but I assume that's because I only have Boba standing by the end. My scoundrels, in general, suck, but I have 4 meat shields and a kick rear end Boba that, if I play write and don't get stun locked, can take out the last 2 waves all by himself. I should really build up STH (7 stars, but not very well geared and only level 70) and actually get Lando sometime. I just don't want to stop farming other poo poo when Boba can win it for me.

Stars have nothing to do with your credit heist rewards. If you can clear the max tier, you have the same Chance of rewards with only boba standing as you do with a full squad at full hp.

I've only been able to clear the max tier for the past, say, 2 or 3 credit heists, but I've gotten 2.5 mil literally every time, for both runs, so I just assumed. I guess my luck just sucks.

You can get 5 mil but yeah I meant I got 2.5 twice, which is better than the 1.5*2 I got last week. I was coming off a 10 mil week so I was bound to stop hitting it big

Amounts you can get are 1.5 (critical fail) maybe ~10%? 2.5 (normal hit) maybe ~85%? 5 (critical hit) maybe ~5%? 10 (Brutal hit) < 1%? Can be run twice, most days you'll get 5m total.

Shame you can only get Ashoka (Fulcrum) up to 3 stars today. Like, cool, I've got her, but until they open ways to get more shards she's basically useless. I know it's common, I was just spoiled by the R2 event recently. Hopefully shards for her start coming up in the fleet store or something like that soon. Her character design is awesome, though.
