If it's anything like the Knightfall event, I for one am going to love having an R8 Temple Guard while struggling to finish P1 of this event without dedicated remodding.
/s, of course. And while I hope I'm wrong, I can't trust you guys to actually execute correctly at this point.
Why even *bother* releasing these events before the entire team is out and ready to go? Having these events be unbeatable the first few runs for even whales does nothing aside from frustrate them and prove that spending isn't worth it - counter to what we would think you'd want the community to think.
Not that you even read these comments anyways. Too busy memeing on discord. Don't know why I even participate in this forum.
Yeah, I'm not usually one for all the negativity on these forums, but I kind of agree here. I'm not typically a whale, but I did with LV clones (and Ahsoka before that...), and the Knightfall event is pretty much the opposite of encouragement to whale on this format going forward. Besides whaling, I've dedicated farming, etc. to gathering everything to beef the LV team up (3 - 9's and 2 - 8's), but we can't even use our own LV. I took Appo and Scorch to R9 blowing through any stash I had, and I can't even get halfway through the last tier, and the tiers before that were a pain the entire way. Rewards are nice if you can get them (almost nobody in my guild can), but I'm worried this is their test for a new format in place of Assault Battles eventually. All this temporary stuff (datacrons, Era Battles, raid omicrons, etc.) that eventually destroy the investment you've made is a trend I'd personally not like to see more of.

Thats great that you appreciate our feedback....how about acting on it? A whole lot of us have been stiffed by the Grift card reward issue....EA help is no help at all....apple is no help....help us.

I tend to not like temporary stuff as well, but just wanted to throw out there that you can definitely get all the rewards with the clones you have. It takes some patience and a few retries but I had 3 stars on tiers with just Appo and CX2 at R9. The rest of the R9s for the team paid for themselves with the repeats of the assault battle.
This one seems even more generous to me - instead of having to whale on two brand new units, we have one, and we get to use a conquest character that most people will acquire for free. Conquest characters are the most F2P accessible units out there. So far until the tiers that require Master Windu (which you'll also be getting, I assume) it's half the investment required for the same rewards. Seems like a win to me.- ImmortalAzazel3 months agoSeasoned Vanguard
Hard locking behind JMWindu means that, if anything like Knightfall's cadence, the first 4 runs of this event (out of about 12 runs total) will be hard-capped at T4. A full third of the runs of the event you won't even have the chance to complete it. That does significantly alter the spending math.
I don't disagree you can earn some rewards back for spending on these new units. But again - why not roll out the event after Temple Guard, Depa, and JMWindu are out? That way, the first pass of the event, the true whales can attempt all tiers, and there's no feelings of missing out for even the biggest of spenders.

(Edit: I have done all the tiers before the final one, in case you happened to be talking about those.) I wonder how much CX-2 makes a difference there. The R9 Appo and Scorch combo just isn't generating enough damage for me to push through Shaak's healing on the final tier. I got past her once and got obliterated by Jar Jar Beq. My mods aren't god tier, but they aren't that bad either. I'm not anywhere near the mats for another R9 currently, so that's unfortunate.
Also, don't you convince me to keep going on those last two! I'm trying to stay on the fence here... (I already have JoNu at R5, not that I really use her yet at all...)
