Admiral Raddus is G11 for this event? Is this a sick joke?

So wait - you want him to be R9 for the unlock but we cant use him at R9??

Is this some kind of sick joke?

don't worry....after you spend 4-6 hours getting to the bonus tier, your R9 can barely fight it's way out of a wet paper bag

My issue with the event is you need to spend almost $200 to max this after doing the event (depends on if you play bonus mission to max or just offer the whole way)....

And this event makes it appear the ship sucks. The event should make me excited to part with the cash, not question whether i should continue to play this game.

Thats the issue.


For the record:
As a 7 star owner i can assure you it does not suck on offense against anything... but on defense it plays poorly


Question for @CG_SBCrumb & @CG_Tusken_Meathead:

So if i use this on offense in gac and hit the ultimate but still lose.... does the enemy capital ship come back or did it just peace out till the ships all die?

I guess he's talking about the crystals needed to refresh it 24 times

Still cheaper than buying a marquee ($300+)

and this argument only works if you didn't have time to plan for the crystals beforehand and starting with 0 crystals

Yes

You only need to spend if you have fomo and want to max right away, same as when exec launched so why is that a surprise?

Now with that said, the event is a steaming pile of hot garbage. If it's going to be tuned as if we had the falcon available to use, then wtf can we not use the falcon?

The exec event wasn't this difficult until you got to the bonus tier, but even that would be won on auto once you got 5/6 stars

No, the argument works if you had enough crystals to do it for free saved up.

Why after playing those tier 1 and 2 battles multiple times to get the right rng would you ever be going 'yeah, lets go all in on this one'.

Shouldnt the event be showcasing how great the ship is?

Why is it designed to be super frustrating?

Thats the exact opposite way to sell this to your players.

Which people had plenty of time to do so

I’ve to congratulate the developers for creating an event to showcase a premium capital ship and its capabilities and making it look completely useless. What’s the point of gearing characters to high levels and building a roster if you’re not able to use them in the bonus tier? If the bonus tier is intended to showcase the capabilities of the unit then the game should allow the players to mix and match and experiment in it.

Because you tried it in arena at 4*, found it awesome and wanted to make it even more awesome.
