GL Requirements vs. Recommendations

So I got all my characters leveled so that I could do the Galactic Legends Rey content. Despite the "requirements" if you look at the mission "recommendations" it suggests Relic 7 for everything.

I'm not quitting but I am quitting spending money. CG have suckered everyone into applying relics to useless characters like Rose Tico only to move the finish line when the event goes live.

Also everyone enjoy collecting your random amounts of tickets for energy spent.

I expect a certain amount of shadiness from mobile games but this really takes the cake.

  • Haven't logged into the update, yet: Are the relic 'requirements' just suggestions? They're only necessary for the quests, not for unlock?

    The event is stupidly hard.
  • Recommendations /= Requirements

    They always recommend more gear than is needed to actually complete the event.

    Well yeah! What did you think? This is EA! And they want you to work for it.
  • You have to get the requirements complete to unlock the event. Then you spend all your energy for a random amount of tickets. So you can attempt 3-4 times a day using crystals to refresh your energy. Don't forget you have to do light side missions to get Light side tickets. So if the gear you need for something else is on a DS node you are out of luck.

    Fixed that for you
  • I am 85/330 right now. No god mods. Didnt move a single mod. I lost tier 1 try and changed my line up, no problems since. My issue is I have to buy all energy I can each day and Friday is the earliest to unlock her. Nothing else I can do. At the mercy of energy. Oh well.... so its 4 full energies of 2161 to get it unlocked. Will get rey done then go to SLK. That doesnt count tier 4,5,6 ultimate ability which is another week or so each I guess.
  • What am I missing???? I can’t launch the event. Says I have 5/6 ..... but I Have completed quests 1&2 of 4 ??? alnbih5m4no1.jpeg

    ^^^ you need all 13 to unlock event grasshopper, no getting a head start.
  • Aaaah ok
  • I’m pretty sure they said the event was gonna be easier than the required gear level.
  • Censorship begins, no foul language in my title but, we've edited my title from GL Requirements Misrepresentation to GL Requirements vs Recommendations. Classy CG.

    I remember that something along those lines or easier than GAS anyway. Seems they altered the deal.
  • The events were supposed to be easier than Malak or GAS event. Ahah.... ah.
  • Recommendations /= Requirements

    They always recommend more gear than is needed to actually complete the event.

    CG specifically said this event wouldnt be challenging when talking about the ticket system. They keep going back on their word, like how they said these GL prerequisites wouldnt all require relics.

    This event is challenging? Everyone I am talking to is having no trouble beating the tiers you can control. Definitely sounds much easier than GAS.

    The relic 7 recommended is most likely for the final tier for the ultimate ability materials. You don't need relic 7 for tiers 1 to 3

    If you need all 13, shouldn't it say x/13 instead of x/6? (Not that I expect you to provide CG's logic on that one...)

    I had that message (5 of 6) and all of the requirements were filled. I assumed that it was in regards to the recommendations not being fully fleshed out yet. Because I was able to play.
  • I just finished tier 3, first time. Tier 4 says I have4/5 characters. Do I have to finish tier 3 2 or 3 times to get Reys shard count up, or do I need to work up 3p0 and veteran Hanson to get in?

    3PO and Vet Han aren't requirements for GL Rey, so no.

    Yep, finish tier 3 to its max amount of times. Unlock rey and gear her to relic level. You use her in the next tier so that's why you have 4/5 characters cause you haven't unlocked her yet.
