So as we all know, ally points are becoming almost obsolete and kind of boring to a certain point. My idea is to have a kind of "shard shop" for ally points where you can exchange them for other types of in game currency. Obviously the harder currency to obtain like the territory battle credits would have a lower exchange rate, and stuff like galactic war points would yield higher amounts...let me know what you guys think!

Yep. Test your luck and hope for hoth rebel soldier or any other full drop and get that extra shard shop currency. If your in IOS, it's pretty easy to make gestures to simply spend all your ally points without much attention

I had well over 1 million at one point but spent them to get shard shop currency when DN was in the shop.The only downside it was a week before they changed how many shards you get for someone you have already unlocked.Now I spend them every few days to keep my shard shop currency up.

There's nothing else to do with them, but you are missing out on a lot of character shards by hoarding them. It takes 30 seconds to spend your daily collection of them. Cash them in.

Spend them every day. It's real easy.

I read a lot the other previous threads about Ally points, and they all pretty much have people in them saying spend them. If not in one sitting, break them down into X number of thousands. I think on average, 4000 takes 3 minutes. Longer if you're recording the good pulls for bragging, or if your Wi-Fi is slow.

After many people have emptied their coffers to try to star up HRSoldier, Lobot and other relatively useless characters, I think any sudden and drastic "improvement" in the usefulness of ally points would be very disheartening.

I do agree with that, but I still think there should be some incentive or more usefulness to ally points.

What are people doing with ally points? I have 379k! Are people just spending them all?

It took me about two hours to go through 300k, on two accounts, while watching a crappy movie.

If they do decide to change it, I hope that they say in X days everyone's ally points will be reset to 0 giving people a chance to burn through all of them... therefore at least creating an even playing field.
