  • Requested gear - game crashed...
  • Sion bug still present
  • "Jango Fett will replace the Stormtrooper, the character currently on Light Side Battles 8-D Hard. The Stormtrooper will continue to be farmable in Light Side Battles 3-C Hard."

    Are you kidding me? Just ONE DAY BEFORE I get 7* on Bossk Ship?
    Really?!?!?!?!?!
  • And is it a bug, because i can’t add any numbers to the sensor Allies quest, get 10 stormtroopers with Ewoks... full manual, only passive aid and 5 Ewoks... 3 times a fight, moh62a2kmkbeyj.png

    Its been reported but light side 6j is good for storm troopers and then vader
  • It has to be actual stormtrooper, not one of the variants. I used dark 7-f node, there are 4 stormtroopers in the last battle
  • Also has Vader in the last battle for the quest that follows
  • Awesome placement on Jango.
  • Thaaanks! 😅
  • Requested gear - game crashed...
    Here's a workaround if you experiencing the Request Gear crash

  • Or the force restart worked as well.
  • nothing to farm in cantina. three 20 energy hard node farms... really?
  • nothing to farm in cantina. three 20 energy hard node farms... really?

    Look at it this way: normal energy regenerates twice as fast as Cantina energy. So it only costs the equivalent of 10 Cantina energy to run 1 hard node.

    Yeah, cantina energy has really become pointless most of the time for me as well. I just do the 3 dailies and slowly stockpile the energy until they drop something there. Not a huge deal to me, but it has made a section of the game pointless.
  • @CG_SBCrumb putting jango on the HT hard node after we've already been farming that node for ages is a D move. Gives the feeling of having to do it all again. It didn't need to be like that.

    5 stormies also at the end of LS 3D.
  • I'd like to say this is great. Not everyone has been farming that node. Those who have been farming it get shard shop currency, which has been pointed out above. Which means more cuffs and stun guns for your roster. I would sure like to have that.
  • Shame I bought Jango every single time he showed up in the regular crystal shipments and it still wasn't enough to 7*him before he became farmable. Guess I'll rest my crystals though, thanks!

    Not trolling, but is he any good? I have largely ignored him so far. Or are just a jango super fan?

    Since the update the quest button isn't functioning. It begins a load screen but never enters the quest page... I have to force quit, just to get back to the main screen.
  • Agree that Jango placement is solid. Your average F2P does not have either maxed out - even HT - even with refreshes - yet. This is better than just about any other placement for most F2P thanks. Look at IG - with Poggle - who is in a shop. Big difference.

    I'm a super fan but he really is good his major weakness is his low health pool but the more stars he gets the less of a concern that is

    You could always buy a buttload of Cassian's U-Wing shards for mad shard shop currency.

  • my quest button goes into a constant loop of loading but doesn't load anything. I have to hard close it and reopen it but I cant access quest tab at all since the new update!

    You could have placed Jango anywhere. But thanks for the screw job (intentionally or accidentally). 20 energy hard node farms are already not well liked. But this is a new low.

    At least reward those who’d already farmed HT to 7* with Jango shards as an act of human decency.

    Alienating and building resentment from the base that pays your salary isn’t a wise business model. There are times to make funds. And times to make friends. Keep this up, and you’ll do neither.

    Talk to everyone who farmed Shoretrooper only to then have Reaper put in the same node. It's happened before. The fact that everyone is surprised is what gets me.

    Regardless of the node Jango was put on you knew you were going to farm him. Given his odd Marquee/Legendary-ish event and the hype you could reasonably predict it would be a 20-energy node.

    So instead of finishing HT and then farming a completely new node with NOTHING else of value in it, you're getting Jango PLUS shard shop currency simultaneously, plus a very necessary piece of gear on pretty much any character (esp Bounty Hunters).

    I think everyone needs to chill.

    I’m fine farming Jango on another node. That puts everyone on the same playing field. And you can’t compare the timing, that’s disingenuous. And even if I accept that, it’s proof that the problem is getting worse by repeating the mistake rather than learning and doing better next time.

    I’m not fine with intentionally putting a competitive disadvantage in place for the very people who make the game possible for all. No $, no SWGOH.

    It’s relationship 101 that resentment is a cancer. This action is an incubator for resentment.

    And complaining about it isn’t an act of hatred. It’s an act of caring enough to voice a concern, so things can be better.

    So, feel free to tell me to shut up and deal with it. But don’t be surprised when I’m out the door.
  • PS there are far more efficient ways to farm equipment pieces than 20 energy hard nodes.
  • Yes but you're getting it as an aside for farming HT, and then Jango. I never suggested farming that node solely for stun cuffs. Please feel free to re-read.

    Figured that was obvious, but then again this is an internet forum. Keep expectations low and I'm never surprised by what I read...

    Off to farm both HT and Jango. Cheers @Buzzsaw!
  • At least I don’t take personal shots. I’d appreciate it if you didn’t either. Let’s keep it on topic, fair @Vendi1983 ?
