    Gw is a terrible idea for a new character, maybe an existing 1 but it makes it far too easy to farm. Which, let's face it, is why ppl want toons put there.

    It's not our fault if gw is an easy get: they made it, now they should add something to it every now and then.
    And the more they wait, the worse it's going to be.
    But if no toons are added to gw, they should at least add stun cuffs and stun guns to the shop there

    Seriously? Now ally points are unfair too? I literally have none saved up and still think this solution is infinitely better than crystals!

    If you wanna fight for top spots yes it can be.
    If you have 10k points and I have 80k... I can tell you right now you won't stand a chance.

    Still multiple times better than just being out spent with crystals imho.

    In crystals we could have a equal starting point.
    Don't get me wrong, ally points can be a better solution IF:
    Refreshes are limited or people are grouped by the amount they have.

    @EA_Jesse

    Nice update, like the change to ally points for the inclusion of all. Regarding the droid / clone packs, are those going to be two different packs or one giant pack? If it's one giant pack that's not really much value because it's such a major gamble. For instance, I want to farm droids so a pack of droids is actually of good value for me but if I have to gamble on Clones too it's of no value. Best Regards

    I can't believe people complaining about using ally points, it's a great idea.

    Some have a lot banked, so. Some people have 100k crystals which can easily be replaced. After the next tournament when those with a lot will spend a lot of them, it will dramatically even put the playing field since you can just buy them.

    In fact you could gain a slight edge by not summing all the battles so rewards those not always seeking the shortest path.

    It's always cantina because they designed it that way. The high cost of cantina refreshes, coupled with the slow earning rate and the high number of uses for it does a few things:

    1. More revenue from crystal refreshes.
    2. More variety in the game as people have to choose between mods and characters, and which character to farm.
    3. It stretches out the acquisition time which effectively makes for more "content" as players are never "done"

    If the characters were all spread out through all the various shops, everyone would be farming all of them at the same time while also farming mods. We would all have identical squads and we would all be done farming and just waiting for something new to happen.

    Hey Everyone,

    We’ve been listening to all of your feedback regarding the Tank Takedown Raid, but realized that players were clumping feedback into two things together that should be seperate:
    • Exploits and Bugs
    • Raid Balancing

    Before we can start taking a closer look at the balancing we need to address the Exploits and Bugs that we posted about on 10/25.

    We are taking a look at the data to see how the Raid is going for everyone. Also, please note that it's been less than a week that players have had access to the Raid. Lastly, to get a better picture of how it's performing we first need to address the Exploits and Bugs, which we are aiming to fix today.

    Thanks.

    13k. I like to get several bronzes a day, specially when i got a streak of good luck in the drops of the free ones.

    Is he all that good or should I just wait and keep farming Aayla
  • Options
    If they keep the ally points for more than 1 tourney, then after 1 event, most people will be on an even playing field, assuming most will "shoot their whole wad" on the 1st tournament

    You're right, I definitely did not see that one earlier. It sounds reasonable to me!

    I have 5000 but idc cause I pulled Ima Gun Di in a Bronze pack yesterday. That's probably better than the rewards we will get.

    And at least that is guaranteed. I once got Dooku from a Bronzium and from then on I had hope of getting another character no matter how bad the chances.

    I've seen some people suggesting gear like stun guns and cuffs should be available in these shipments. Sounds like a great idea to me!

    Thank you for the 5k ally coins. Figured there needed to be some kind of positive about ally coins with all the warranted negative reaction.

    Can we get a link for this (or some explanation of where it is):
    If you’re interested in more details, please check out our forums in Allies->Forums

    I for one liked that. I'm going to farm him asap, there's a chance he'll become a OP taunter if used wisely...
  • Options
    I pulled 4* Dooku and IGD from Bronziums.

    I dont regret the purchase. I will just do a couple more refreshes and get some more ally cred

    If bronzium packs dropped ability mat 3's I'd have 0 saved up. But alas such is not the case and I have about 106k (and counting).

    As for the tank raid, can we please speed it up? It runs quite slow when we wait 20-30 seconds between being able to attack. For those playing on mobile devices, the screen dims before we're able to do an action.
  • Options
    I got 17K and i was thinking that was a lot LOL! I can't see how you guys save up to 100K+ on those... I'll spend even less now lol
