Is anyone else really struggling with relic materials on all levels? When they first introduced relics and converted the materials we had in abundance the first 3 levels of relic requirements. It was very easy to convert the piles and piles of materials into essential items needed for relics. However, with the demand now off the scale for relics and the relentless bombardment of NEW toons needed, the materials needed to convert are just not scaling with the requirements CG is placing on the community. Carbonite Circuits are bottomed out, the Chromium Transistors bottomed out, the situation just gets more dyer the further up the relic scale you go and there seems to be very little coming our way to balance this equation. I am just falling further and further behind in this slog for relics, due to the lack of materials required for everything. There is literally nothing being given to us in terms of Impulse Detectors, nothing being given to us in terms of Gyrda Keypads. The rancor raid keeps spitting out Aeromagnifers, by the hundreds but sadly they are completely useless without Impulse Detectors I am sorry to say. It's non-sensical, why don't you just add Impulse Detectors into the rancor rewards? I understand there is a balance to strike but this definitely needs a second glance because in my mind falls desperately short.

I've taken to buying Circuit Boards with crystals from time to time.
Bronziums don't feel as bad to me, as there are some of the 12 salvage pieces that accumulate over time and there are a couple of the 4 salvage pieces I still have thousands of.
Chromium transistors though shouldn't be an issue. If you look for the Mk7 Blastech Weapon Mod in the guild store, you can buy 5 for 150 credits. That gives you 33 of them for 150 guild store credits. Buy that gear piece every time you see it in guild store and at least that's one relic material that will stop being an issue.
Thanks for reading before responding.
They already demonstrates the gear economy claiming posts are completely ignored, it's indifferent how Much of these type of post get on the official forums, Reddit, even on discord.
The thing it's if these changes happens, it cleans the company image a bit, but delaying it, just get the opposite effect.
i read your post so your welcome
not reading and not agreeing are two different things
i dont have this issue and i dont spend my way out of it
Carbonites and Bronziums are usually the most frustrating. MK 5 Datapads can be nice to cash in since they’re a Shock Prod byproduct, but both still need active farming.
Mind sharing your SWGOH.gg link to evaluate if you’re even at the progression to need to worry about such issues yet?
Also if you indeed did read Wookie’s post he even says that there’s a difference between managing your resources and CG simply not knowing how to progress the demands/needs of the gear economy properly.
CG has not kept up their promises to fix the gear economy and have not done what they said they would do. They promised two phases of changes to the gear economy with a potential third if needed and after 6 months have only done about half of the first phase. They have no excuse for not following up.
They also have no excuse for being unable to properly progress their gear economy by continuing to force us to double or triple dip the same gear pieces over and over again. We need core gear for progression up to g12. Then at G12 we need that core gear again for g12 finishers. Then we need the early gear again for scrap for relic materials. That also goes for G12 and G12+ Gear being needed for their applicable levels and then for relic scrap. That’s not ok.
It has nothing to do with managing our resources when CG is incapable of giving us the tools to do so properly
yes there is a difference
we disagree on which side this issue lies
Clearly. You can disagree with him all you want but that doesn’t change the fact that CG has done a horrible job with their gear economy. 🤷🏻♂️
The Holos for Relic-5 are an issue since they are also hugely demanded at G6-9 ranges.
I blow most of my Guild Tokens on Holos & Carbs w/ the rare purchase of Mk5 Thermals.
Zinbindles & Higher are a joke. A sad joke.
Seriously, unless its a top end (GAS+) or GL requirement I don't even bother with Relic-7 & my Relic-8 is strictly for GL Reqs.
I don't even give my GLs Relic-8 yet. Not enough of the G12 pieces drop for it.
Got 200 aeromags & no where near enough G12 pieces to convert into the other half of R8 mats.
“Fact”
Yes, it is a fact. You think that the progression of the gear economy has been handled properly? Lmao now that’s funny
no its an opinion
Bronziums - tons
Chromium transitors - farm mats for MK7 BAW armor mod then craft it through some trash char
Simple.
do you have a source
Well since CG themselves said the gear Economy needs updating, and just stopped halfway, "fact" is pretty fair.
this is thread about relic mats
did they say anything about relic mats
Yes, I believe there are several levels on stun guns you can use for circuit boards, what’s your point?
