I don't know what you saw or read but they have shown what they do when a non-herioc-famous character can beat GLs. They won't touch it for 3 years so people spend alot of money on it only then to nerf it, go into your account and strip relics and omicron mats then give them back to you at a lesser market value.
In any case one of 3 things will happen: what I wrote above, they might nerf immediately or if this current Era Event model is to be used to predict anything, there will be other characters 12 weeks later then even more powerful.
Just make a choice if you want to spend money on this or not and stick to that choice. I'm not participating in this because it feels kind of like the economic collapse in 2008.. I wonder if this is the garage sale right before the game is ended ><
