Please keep talking about how awesome Lando is. I'm about at 5 stars on him and can't wait to get him leveled and geared. Leia is fast behind him too.

It's been more than 24 hours since they've completely loving broken PVP and GW with mods. Has there been any official response yet?

Well they announced the first round of mod changes, and somehow they managed to find away to make mods even worse than they are now. Instead of having a 100% drop rste, they will have a drop rate like cantina shards do, so about 33%. Thus increasing the amount if stamina needed, making mods even more of a whales only thing. They are still talking about actually rebalancing the stats on mods, but are asking players to give them a chance to get over the initial shock, the amount of customization available out ways the drastic changes.

Ha ha ha ha. Holy poo poo. How are they so bad at this?

Also a couple of questions for QGJ goons:

Should we do a quick T5 to burn through some of these extra guild coins?

If they really drop the ball even more on these mod changes and I end up quitting, who wants to be the new leader?

So their fixes so far are to just make poo poo even more difficult?

I hit 90/100 on FOTP today and :toxx: I will quit this game if I bring him to 7 star before they actually make this poo poo bearable again. PVP and GW are absolute nightmares now.

I'm dialing back quite a bit. I've got some weird health stuff going on right now and I don't really want the added stress of trying to advance in this game with the way things are right now.

I haven't done T7 yet but I feel like I've been swinging above my weight class with Teebo lead, QGJ, Rey, AA, Fives. I really need a potency mod for Fives and I really need to get Fives and Teebo to G10 but I can still put up some good numbers on T6. Once you get a hang of the timing you can use Master Tactician to keep your dudes healed from the occasional hit that sneaks through and to get Teebo stealthed more consistently.

I would love to run Ewok Elder but I have like The Worst Luck with raid loot and still need to build like 7 droid callers right now so I'm putting all available guild bux into those.

So this may be old news and is certainly not incredibly useful to know but apparently Mod Table (not Mod Challenge) battles count as Hard Mode battles for the sake of today's guild activity.

I'm at the point where I can nearly solo P1 (today I hit 95%) on T7. I would need to get someone to take over IGD, but if you guys want to take on T7 I could transfer over and get you guys started on Han shards.

I don't think we're quite there yet. We've really only got a handful of people who actually put up big numbers on T6 right now.

Personally I'm alright with QGJ being the casual guild while IGD plows through T7s.

What kind of poo poo rear end teams are people putting together for the Potency mod challenge? I've got Vader beefed up and obv a nearly maxed RG and... snow trooper at like level 30 and 3 stars.

I think it's real dumb that First Order dudes don't also count as Empire dudes.

From the latest update


Really sucks that they now are going to be balancing things around mods. I feel like they need to balance around the base characters, so that you are actually rewarded for increasing your powers with mods. Instead of what is likely to happen: mods become mandatory

Yeah I agree. They seem way too interested in pushing the carrot just a little further rather than you know, releasing new characters and poo poo.

Even outside of droid teams I'd rate IG88 decently high. I want to say he's better than Savage but they are two very different dark side dudes so I'm not sure how to compare them but he's definitely better than Sid and Asajj currently.

Speaking of their excellent QA, did they break QGJ's 3rd skill? Several times today I've used it, dispelled a buff from the enemy, and not gotten the team buff from it.

Evasion Up and Offense Up both do this sometimes. I suspect that it's something like the debuff effect lands but they "evade" the trigger that gives you Offense Up. I don't have any real scientific data on this or anything but it always seems to happen with Dooku/Ben/Lumi buffs.

Please don't spend any money on this game right now, the developers have not earned it. This game caters to mega whales who spend several hundred a month on it.

Seconding this. I actually spend way more money than someone should on mobile games and I still will not buy anything in this game. Beyond the fact that the value of the purchases for this game are laughably bad compared to just about any other phone game, there's the issue where the development team likes to make big sweeping changes at the drop of a hat with no notification. What you spend your money on may be worth far less minutes after you purchase it.

Uh. Have you ever played against a modded OB, STH, RG, Rey, QGJ/GS/Whatever team comp? Holy poo poo, modded right, I can't beat that at least half the time, and my team is fully modded, 5* level 15. Alterrnatively, OB, STH, B2 or Sun Fac, Rey, QGJ/whatever.

Wow.

So like, Disney has a professional Star Wars Lore Nerd on staff? How the gently caress do I get their job.

tbh it's probably more of a marketing/branding gig than it is someing lore centric. Presumably there is a fuckoff massive series bible at Disney for Star Wars and some poor soul has to ensure that all Star Wars branded poo poo adheres to it. They sure as gently caress aren't just going to give that info to clown shoes dev Capital Games and hope they work out so Disney has an actual grown up to take care of that.

E: That approval process makes me wonder about (potential cartoon spoilers) Ahsoka being a night sister at first. At one of the recent big events they outlined what her story was going to be before Clone Wars got cancelled and I wonder if at the point when CG first got the approval they were still going off of that and were going to make her affiliated with the Night Sisters in the last season (who by the end of Clone Wars were pretty much all dead).

Someone on Reddit is claiming that they changed raid damage, so that a bunch of people all clearing P1 will all count their damage. If so, we need to be a lot more strict about damage caps or something.

Hello all. I have not been around much lately but I'm happy to say I've freshly purged some inactive people from QGJ. We have 10 slots open.

I've also promoted a few people. Please feel free to let me know if you feel you should be an officer as there really wasn't any method used to select the current group.

Finally, do we want to change our guild message? The old schedule is kind of obsolete now that you can see the next guild event in the client.

Currently doing T6, hoping we can get back into T7 soon but who knows with the new raid coming. Only like 50-75% of the guild ever participates in any given raid anyway so as long as you have at least one 7 star person to get raid rewards you should do well.

Throw my vote in for a merge. I've pretty much given up on raids because I hate them and they take so long but if we can get enough people to do T7s of the Rancor again then I'll probably start contributing to them again.

At the very least they will probably have some kind of Black Friday promotion. But I doubt we'll see a major update right as everyone leaves for a long weekend.

Maybe I'm just unlucky but it seems like every GW node after 5 is like PVP whale teams with some kind of terrible tank composition.

If Vader isn't a pilot when the patch goes out then I bet they are holding off to release his TIE Advance as a special ship unit. Lando/Han could have a similar thing with the Millennium Falcon but I'm guessing they are just missing because it's incomplete.
