Content update 8/9 [Mega]

Replies

  • Just saw spoons edit, nvm
  • It will probably be a modified flash style event, but will appear randomly for a duration of anywhere between 7 and 15 minutes every 1-23 hours over the next 13 days. Probably with a cumulative active event duration of 2 hours.

    Why would you assume this?

    Sarcasm my friend. Learn to read between the lines, sarcasm is everywhere on these forums.

    So what's with the in game message about Nihilus and Fulcrum being available as a tile in shipments? Which shipment?

    Looks like a new tile was added to regular shipments that’ll feature either atf or dn.
  • Whoops! Seems the following was omitted. Added to Update notes:

    SHARDS ADDED TO SHIPMENTS
    Shipments have been updated to include the Shards of the following Characters (in quantities of of 4 or 8):
    • Darth Nihilus
    • Ahsoka Tano (Fulcrum)

    This was my question. Apparently it's a lot of others' as well.

    What's different/changed/updated? They've both been in shipments for a while now.

    Can you clarify if there is an end date to the hero's journey event?

    There is and we will find out when the event launches.

    There is a chance that it will run for the same amount of time as the packs.

    And how do you know that ?

    When the event starts we will get a timer telling us when it ends.

    the guess at when it will end being coincidental with the ending of the packs is just a hope i have and a little logical reasoning.

    I would love an answer from a dev on this one. Will CLS ever come back? My guild mates are saying that this is a one time deal. It would kill me not to have him. I agree that he should be rare, but given how many people are missing out on him, will he be back?

    He will be gone FORRR EVVV ERRR.

    Is ahsoka fulcrum ever coming to shard shop? Seems well past the cadence of the other releases.

    I appreciate your attempt to answer the question, but honestly you're guessing. Hopefully there is a timer once the event starts, but many suspect there isn't a timer even when the event starts.

    That's why I asked a dev in the first place.

    Who are the many who suspect there is no timer? Where is this hoard of timer-doubters?

    My guess is also 14 days as the packs said. Because i think it's the habit of legendary/rare event packs. Different with marquee/faction pass packs (ex: Ewoks), they're always there for 1 month.

    For sure, let's we all together wait in couple hours. U guys can wait days for new update.. now the wait for Luke is just hours.. plz be patient, yes? :kiss:

    700 crystals for (10 to 330)of each new hope character. (Limit 10 per day)
    Or 20 for 80 shards of 1 character.

    Redacted.
  • Or use the crystals from that $100 to refresh Cantina energy a few extra times each day. Three refreshes is about 20 shards. That's 600 crustals for 20 shards. A much better deal ;)

    U must be FTP.. bcause i think the same way. It's very nice deal ;)

    So if I only need Old Ben, I can spend 699 crystals on packs with a 25% chance to get him. And a 75% chance for shard shop currency where I can't buy Old Ben........

    @Draw4wild you can spend that 600 crystals on extra Cantina refreshes. That's a guaranteed 15+ shards.
  • I would love it if they fixed the crashing issue that a player has even identifies and fixed instead of ignoring us and saying it isn't a high priority.

    I dunno. Devs have already posted in this thread, so they would have seen the many questions about the duration of the event. It would take 15 seconds to clear up the mystery right now, so it's fair to assume there is a reason the end date isn't just announced.

    I'm going to fall on the tin foil hat side of "we won't know the end date". Why? Increase the pressure to buy packs "just in case you miss out".

    Without double drops and with average rng, I'll be unlocked by August 22nd, so I have no reason to buy packs ... unless I have no guarantee the event will end early. Suddenly maybe I do drop $20 ($28 cdn) to get those last 80 shards when I'm four days out from being done ... Just in case it ends early.

    *Shrug* I guess we'll find out in a few hours why we weren't just told right up front how long the event will run.

    I heard somewhere that since there are achievements for the Hero's journey, it means that it will be back again, when I have no idea

    It is not guaranteed. I've spent 3 refreshes to receive 1 shard, several times since I've played this game.

    You can only buy the pack once so this would be a worthless strategy and most people who buy the booster realize, after buying it once, that it is not viable.
  • Just bought a journey begins pack for 699 crystals and got 12 old ben shards, somebody give me a good slap upside the head...arrrrrrrggggghhhhh!!!!

    You should be extremely happy. You didn't get the minimum amount of shards.

    EA execs probably love to watch the player base go bonkers for at least a few hours. If I had to bet, I'd bet that we'll find out once the event officially starts. But I'd also bet a little on your tin foil hat.

    How long will the event last?

    For me, probably about 15 minutes. For others, results may vary based on mods, RNGesus, gear level and so on.

    The duration of the event though is not yet known.

  • This is third attempt to ask a simple question...I'd really appreciate it being left alone...

    :lol:
    But seriously.. have anyone here got 330 shards? If i ever get 330 shards, sure i'll screenshot it and post it everywhere so that all the world know. But i haven't see something like that.. my google search ended with nothing :flushed:
