April (Fools) 2022 Patch Notes - QOL UPDATE

Saw this on reddit.
https://www.reddit.com/r/SWGalaxyOfHeroes/comments/tttk60/april_fools_2022_patch_notes/

GAC

  • Players will now be able to choose each month if they are participating in 5v5 or 3v3 events. Much like with TB, players will default to 5v5 if no choice is made.
  • We’ve elected to hold off on 3 fleets for Kyber while we finish our “shipload of content,” this change is estimated to go live in 2-3 months


Mods

  • Players will now be able to “save/load state” on their entire roster, instead of requiring base sets for individual characters.
  • Although we are not increasing mod storage, our new filter system gives players full control on mods being auto sold based on custom criteria.
  • Only 5 dot mods will available for the top level of each mod challenge.


Conquest

  • We are pushing all the features of our $29.99 Conquest pass into the $9.99 tier. A new $29.99 pack will be available with additional features.
  • Finishing the last battle in Conquest will unlock the ability to recover a small amount of currency for wins on nodes already completed.
  • Shop nodes for data cards will no longer be able to have duplicate data cards. Data cards will always be from 3 separate sets.
  • Shop nodes after a boss battle will always have at least one blue data card, and triple the chance at a purple data card.


Raids

  • HSTR is now simmable with rewards proportionate and equal to what should be expected. The chance of full gear pieces for the full guild will be proportionate to what the top ten expected in the past.
  • Challenge Haat is in testing and will be released shortly; at this time cRancor will also become simmable, details to follow.
  • Characters with summons have had their summon ability retooled to offer alternative usefulness in raids


General

  • Players with “ad targeting” on should no longer receive ads for packs for characters they have at 7 stars, or sets of characters in which they have all characters at 7 stars
  • All legacy events have been altered to allow simming in the event that your account has 3 starred that particular event
  • Fleet squads can now be saved for fleet/GAC
  • Crystal costs of “core gear,” have been retooled to take into account their increased visibility and diminished need
  • Bronzium packs can now be opened in any quantity using a slider bar now available on the page


Territory Battles

  • A review phase will be available at the end of the event for 24 hours
  • Officers will now be able to interact with nodes for inactive phases, to close/lock and provide instructions
  • A new notice for officers is now available. Officers may now tag “high profile” platoons and send a guild wide message with number of each “high profile toon,” that still needs to be placed.
  • In the last hour of a TB phase officers may choose to “burn available GP,” for all guild members to a single territory.


Galactic Legend

  • Events have been retooled so that only ultimate ability requires a ticket grind (same number)
  • Oher than the ultimate ability, each tier only needs to be completed one time.
  • Events past Rey/SLKR have had their difficulty altered to be challenging to compensate.
  • I agree to all of this with the exception of Cpit. I think it’s to early to sim but that can be debatable. To bad this is to expensive for CG to do.
  • I really like the idea of an auto deploy of remaining GP in TB. Then again there was a whole thread of ideas for tools to make officers lives easier that went un-depolyed due to lack of participation of one party.
  • CG: the best I can do is move the gear in shipments so you have to scroll past our overpriced "premium" Bastila shards. :wink:

  • @CG_Tusken_Meathead you wanted to know player wish lists. Most of this joke post is pretty much a catch up on 3 years of players asking for stuff.

    Would love to see most of these points (and probably even more) in game!

      This one is possible today though? Or am I getting delirious?
