Extra guild activities gives you a goal to get more GET tokens. If you can buy them, then nobody would have the need to do the guild activities.

Working towards getting gas or Malak 7* shouldn’t be instant just because you want it.

If you want that, then this game isn’t for you.

It also shouldn't be as long as it was when he was meta. And in reality it isn't. There are more events giving out get currency than there were a few years ago. So the grind is eased some. The new raid will likely ease it more. How much is hard to say.

But the idea that a character should forever remain as hard to get as they were when launched is ludicrous. That's like saying a 2 year old car should cost the same as it did brand new. Malak and even gas don't have the utility they did when released. They are still great characters but aren't meta. So it is reasonable that they cost less (measured in time) than they did before.

And that is the case already for farming their requirements. It may need to be the case for the get currency at some point too.

This will likely happen in the form of more events rewarding ocurrency but could also be achieved by lowering the price in store if you want to specifically help newer players get the shards sooner.

Some cars increase in value over time....just sayin. I would also argue that Malak and GAS are more important than ever since GAS is an integral part of (non GL) GL counters.

Very few cars increase in value over time other than for collecting purposes. So the anology fits alright.

And you have a point that malak and gas still have value. But still not as much as when they were new. At release, they held in the top 20 of arena and dominated in gac. That is more valuable than a counter in gac or an offensive climb team in arena.

I'm not saying they should be free. But maybe a little cheaper. And in another year, when they lose even more value (as all characters do) they should probably be even cheaper.

I agree, but I would argue the amount of sources of GET currency going up is essentially a cost nerf, as long as you don't spend all of it on gear without thinking ahead. So for smart players, the price has gone down.

But back on the topic of anniversary rewards and relating it to GET, I don't believe for a second that the solution to any GET related woes in this thread is handing out any substantial amount of GET as a gift or making it purchasable in the shop. It may get cheaper, but you still have to actually fight for and earn Malak/GAS with your guild. That's the whole point.

I'm fine with that. And adding additional sources of get is a fine solution and they have used it.

I only brought up lowering the store price as an option if they want to lower the price of the shards only and not associated gear to disproportionately help newer player.

I agree with you that it doesn't need to be purchasable but handing out a few thousand (or malak and gas shards) once a year is fine.

On the Gl shard as a gift issue.

I actually don't think GL shards would be all that helpful. It won't get you there much faster since even 15 shards is less than a day of energy to do a portion of the event.

It would be far better to give out piett/chewpio/mon mothma shards add and maybe 1000 regular energy for ticket farming.

10 or 15 or even 50 GL kylo shards are completely worthless unless I'm already ready for him and even then it saves a day of energy refreshes at most.
