Ships, are they worth it for F2P? Game strategy.
I think that FP2 players should just forget about these ships. They should continue to develop their core characters, buy Rex, Sun Fac shards, buy gear in new fleet arena shipments and so on instead of blueprints and ships. What do you think?

You will get 800 coins every day anyway
You probably aren't going to be top 5 early on outside day 1 but build a moderate force focusing on your current strongest toon pilots so you don't spend resources leveling toons you don't need like clone sarg, RP etc.
Build ships at a moderate rate and be happy w 100th place and getting 1200 tokens instead of top 5.
So moderate ship building focused on toons you already have leveled and spend half tokens on ships and half on gear/toon shards you want.
That's my advice.
I just don't get why you would avoid at least a minimal interaction that would allow you to develop faster. Game play is the only way to develop as f2p and your suggestion is to ignore it......all that will lead to is falling behind.
Why play a game if your not interested in the content?
And you do realize that this is inly the beginning, more elements will be woven together and into ships. Guild wars.
I think I play this game for fun, and ships look like fun.
a) It is fun;
b) you can develope your rooster with ships as well.
My strategy is simple -- focus on getting ships for people I have well geared/leveled/starred (Wiggs, Ashoka) and upgrading the ships we've been given.I can do this from GW (I had about 21k GW currency sitting), and I will use my ship store currency for the same. Once I feel I can stay at least within the top 200 consistently, I may spend some of the currency on some other characters and gears. But for now, I want to at least make sure that I'm staying (relatively competitive). The nice thing is that the payout structure is much more balanced.
Cody???
Or you mean Rex? Cause I had rex on ships shop today
All clones that weren't previously farmable are in the shop
It's free, dude! It doesn't cost you a darn thing--no credits, no gear, no energy. Just develop the free ships and sit as high on the Arena ranking as you can--which won't be as good as Arena, but a lot of us are in the same boat (so to speak) so the spenders are going to shoot up the rankings AND THEN YOU WILL NEVER SEE THEM AGAIN.
Ships are excellently implemented because you can interact with them as much or as little as you like. Hate them? Do one Arena fight a day, one challenge a day, train one a day, then spend all the resources you get from it on Darth Vader or Sun Fac or whoever.
As others have said it is free, why not participate.
There are 3 new daily activities added based on ships, don't do them and you are missing out on crystals, credits no daily omega etc.
So go ahead and ignore ships but your progression will slow even more
This is very poor advice.
For FTP players who are just collectors or just like to use this game to kill a couple hours its a nice alternative to arena/gw/etc. While the format is similar to those its different enough to be interesting.
For FTP players like me who are competitive this format allows you access to incredibly good toons and it also is almost certainly going to have more guild and tourney/event activities centered around ship battles. It would be ridiculously silly to ignore something like this since the resource crossover between ships/toons will likely become more intertwined than this initial offering.
Just as some people argued that developing scoundrels for the heist was a bad idea initially some are arguing against investing time in ships. Do not listen to them if you like being competitive.
minimum pay-out at fleet arena = 800 tokens
