Take out Useless Gears from Raid reward

everythink is said. dropping a gear we already have from "Defi" x3000 as a raid reward is non sense. raid reward should be exiting not ....

Yes. I’ve seen thousands of posts here about this. It probably won’t happen because it encourages players to buy gear with crystals instead of actually rewarding players for their time. This would be ok if we could trade gear in for other gear or at least sell it. But that is not the case.

This. Even if it were lower level gear that I'm always running out of I would prefer that than supposed high level gear I already have thousands of.

If you don't want take the gears out then please release a mythic version of the raids with a better prize pool.

Nothing is more annoying than you got useless gears for your effort. It's really-really demoralising and it just makes me more confident to not spend anything on this game ever.

Tell me about. Got 1st in heroic pit today and got 20 mk 6 hypo syringe salvage 1 fully crafted mk 6 hypo syringe and 40 mk v droid callers. Guess which 2 of those I didn’t need.

Remember, they don't even want your money, unless it's thousands of dollars a month. They just want you to help keep those who pay thousands engaged.

I think the idea here is that they want rewards to be all over the spectrum. By leaving the option in to get little to no benefit from the rewards, they increase the value of the good rewards.

This leads to a feeling of excitement for good rewards, as well as encouraging people to spend on them if they don't get them.

So, in my opinion, there is actually something to be gained both for us and them by doing so. Frustration and disappointment are a necessary part of the equation to actually feel elated and accomplished at times too. (without sadness, happiness would lose all meaning).

Not that I am happy with getting crap rewards either, I just believe that being happy all the time isn't really possible or good.

There's still plenty of excitement when I get gear that's not farmable on a node vs gear that is farmable. Carbs and guns are great, but I can farm them. Droid callers and security scanners are my big obstacle. Rng could screw you for weeks... in the mean time I have thousands of gear items that I will never use, enough to have a surplus forever even if I won the lotto and took every toon to g12 is ridiculous.

Let people start to catch up through rewards and they'll start spending more to get that last little bit. It's when you're just on the cusp that the temptation to spend is greatest.

If they intend to keep Challenge gear in raids then make more toons need them. Mk.iv Carbantis are rarely used but they make up a nice piece of gear (81 damage, armor penetration). Add this to some new attackers and bingo, the gear is less useless!

Getting terrible rewards over and over has a negative effect on spending. I can only speak for myself and guild mates. What’s the point in spending to place higher in events when rewards are so terrible? There’s no ROI. Now, if useless gear was removed that we have several hundred or 1000s of, then it increases desire to spend because more would be wanting to rank higher. Just common sense

Anyone there? Please take out useless challenge gear from heroic raid rewards. Obviously carbantis are NOT included in that. But the mark 9 fabritech pads as rewards in a heroic tank are insulting. PLEASE listen to your community and make this happen.

They take the opposite approach when it comes to spending. They don't please you into spending on events. They frustrate you into spending on shipments.

Those rewards were nice when the tank first got introduce, I was always running out of the challenge gear

Boba_The_Fetter · February 23, 2018 11:08PM

Good that people keep making these posts, I'd hate if this topic disappeared. Preach!

I dont know why we receive the same rewards in daily challenges. Despite the fact that I play for 6 month I already have sousands of useless gear pieces. Why not to add some diversity? Changing gear every month, week? Or make it random at least?
