Game Update - 9/13/2016 Comments and Questions- ***MEGATHREAD***

Hey Everyone,

Here are the update notes for 9/13/2016

Assault Battles: Forest Moon
  • Return to the Forest Moon is starting September 15th. This event will run for 3 days, is balanced for 5 characters at level 78+, and requires either Empire or Droid characters.
  • Both tiers rebalanced to require mods. Similar to Military Might, you will need approximately 1-2 star mods for Tier 1. Tier 2 requires approximately 4-5 star mods, gear level 10, and level 80 units with maxed out abilities.
  • Tier 2 is now called the “Bonus Tier” (was “Tier II (Very Hard)”). This tier is intended as a challenge for users who have a maxed out squad and desire a truly difficult experience. Earning the Achievement still only requires completion of Tier 1.
  • Bonus Tier has had the following mechanical improvements for added difficulty:
    • The Ewok Elder in the Final Boss wave of the Bonus tier will now resurrect all dead Ewoks when he is killed. You have been warned!
    • Chief Chirpa has much higher tenacity in wave 8.
  • In both tiers, deadly Ewoks now have a non-dispellable buff called “Deadly” to help increase mechanic clarity.
  • Free replays changed to match Military Might. Rewards for first time completion adjusted upwards.
  • Replay rewards adjusted upwards.
  • Slightly lowered speed of Ewok Scouts & Warriors in Tier 1 (~5-8%) across the board. (They’re still pretty fast though.)

Additional Update Notes
  • Packs that’re available daily (ex: Jedi Pack, Scoundrel pack) are now available for players starting at lv 20. Previously they were only available to players lv 58 or higher
  • Low level gear pieces have been added to Guild Shipments
  • A refresh button has been added to the Shard Shop
  • You can now purchase exclusive Raid Gear in the Shard Shop.
  • Immediately upon release, the shard shop will have raid gear after you buy your first refresh (or wait until shard shop refreshes on its own)
  • The MK 5 CEC Fusion Furnace and MK 6 Nubian Design Tech have been replaced with MK 5 Arakyd Droid Caller & MK 7 Nubian Security Scanner in PVE shipments
  • In the 9/9 community update, it was announced that omega battle would be running on Sept 14th & Sept 15th. Due to a recently discovered bug, the Omega Battles event has been cancelled. This will be fixed in a future update.

    Just wait until it refreshes, it will appear.

    It will show up when your shard shop refreshes.

    If it's like last time, it's only 4200 for 50 raid salvage. Much better deal (except for furnaces).

    Yeah I don't know why anyone would pay 6.3k for something like a full scanner when the rest of it's easily farmed.

    Very nice! Well done, eager to see prices.

    I wonder what they consider "Low level gear" that's being added to guild shipments. The non-raid gear that was already in there was overpriced and junk

    I already refreshed for 100 crystals, its 6300 for a full piece, maybe if they sell it as 50 salvage itll be cheaper like you said.

    Dont need raid gear though, we need stun cuffs and guns a lot more.

    Well sounds like I won't be finishing tier 2 but am looking forward to beating t1. Couldn't play it last time. I want me some Vader shards.

    For real. I wish raids would drop them 40 at a time instead of raid gear for a while. They're really stingy with the guns and cuffs.

    They have, it just requires more work since it lies deeper in the core of the code.

    .. can I just say this. The Omega event being DELAYED, not canceled might have been of a result of unforeseen circumstances that could have resulted in bigger problems.

    Let's not focus on that.. OK?

    Hah!

    I'm disappointed, but if it's bugged I'm not going to break out the torch and pitchfork. I'd rather play something that runs smoothly.
    Meanwhile, down on the farm....

    Let's hope any bad reactions don't discourage the dev from sharing planned events in the coming week :blush:

    I agree, not a huge deal as it will theoretically return at some future point instead.
    It just seems odd that a bug has been found now? These events have been run several times before.

    Was the omega event bugged before? Weve done it plenty of times in the past.

    Not much else to focus on, we already knew assault battles were coming...and the shard shop ....lol

    It's 6,3k for a full gear or 6,3k for 1/50 piece only?

    No there is no "found now" there is "announced now".. big difference.

    Just saying.

    :)

    The fact is everyone is *TRYING* here.. it's NEVER going to be a 100%. (Who is?)
