Hey all,
So I decided to buy the bundle because I love Star Wars, I love the new movie, and because I, surprising really love this game and play a lot. However, I was wondering what others opinions were on the bundle.
So far, I'm not sure if I see it as worth it, because it doesn't feel like the characters you get (Fin & Kylo Ren) are better than the other 3-star/4-star heroes I have. Maybe not 'better' but they feel the same as my other characters. I've already gotten them to level 40 and have their gear level to 4-5. I'm not really 'regretting' my purchase, but if what I said is true, that there's not much of a reason to have bought it based on usefulness, then I guess I do. Just don't want to feel like I get ripped off with generic characters.
Any advice? Thoughts?
Thanks

Depends on which characters you have got though
I'm loving captain phasma and I'm sad I can't get those 50 shards
Although if you have patience as stated above it does not take long to unlock him from cantina, the only problem being you have to be in cantina level 4 which you have to be around lvl 52 to access if i remember correctly.
For a level 52+ player I dont think it is worth it, if you are new and just want some quick cool characters then I would still think that chroma lottery is a better investment. for £80.
Think about it, for the price of the bundle you can open 48 chroma packs. Giving you many more characters, a good chance of getting Fin and Kylo anyway, and more shards to rank characters up. All the characters are easily farmable.
If you don't care about using them and already have a reasonable A team and are now busy maxing chars from same location, just use some shards to get any char like Kylo, or Phasma, the one that will complement you team best. I am a bit sad that Dooku is harder to farm than Kylo, as a level 7* can also accomplish something similar. But the are not exactly the same anyway. Actually I prefer kylo as enemy at 7* than Dooku. Most people think Dooku not a pain, but I have seen maybe not even once a 7* Doku. I think I saw a level 6 in last GW mission, and get could do like 24k dmg in a turn that has Assist, then Double, then his turn (with Double), then triggered hus turn meter, and the attacked out of turn, and then reacted to an AoE. I learnes how to deal with him with Stuns, and very careful hiw to handle him.
Now a large bulk of what you spend ends up being shards of characters you already unlocked. Again mostly shards for characters you will not use. Very rarely do shards of the low drop % characters anymore. You're 500 bucks in the red have every nightsister an ewok 6* and the Royal Guard is a 7* worthless slab....that it still gives you shards for...even tho it's maxed.
But you still want Old Ben and other rare characters so you drop another 500. And you get Old Ben to 7*. Then they release new characters and if they're not smart the cycle repeats itself.
The end.
I'm already up to 19 crystals on Kylo Ren just after a few days, and not really trying a whole lot either.
In addition you also need to bear in mind recent changes to other characters last week and you need to also consider the risk of the same thing happening...
If you considering the money in the pack as an investment, then a definite NO. If you just want to save time but are prepare to adapt to any changes to those characters, good or very bad then by all means...
Hope that helps...
Heed the old adage
"Fool me once shame on you, fool me twice shame on me"
Game used to be fun when it wasn't a grind... if I wanted a grind I would have went and played old school Everquest or some Korean MMO!
It seems almost ridiculous they aren't releasing cheaper packs. I'm not a f2p player by any means, but $100 is asinine in my opinion. I bought the Dooku pack and I've spent $20 or so on Chromium for refreshes. I'd be more than happy to buy a decent pack for $20, but EA isn't even giving us that option.
As for the current one, not even tempted. If it had Rey in it, maybe. They really want me to buy it though.. the "limited time" countdown timer has been stuck on 6 days and some number of hours for several days now.
Takes longer than a couple of weeks, but you are correct. All things are available in time.
