BAM LSB worth it if I can't afford the zetas?

Buying it is all subjective, but I’m in exactly the same boat as you and am 100% going to get them, eventually you’ll want them at relics and when that time comes you’ll be relieved that you do.

I don't really care because I already have Bando, but this looks much worse than the original LS bundles..

It's still an insane value. If you have all of these characters at G9, you're getting 5 characters brought to R5 which translates into:

• 800 Carbonite Circuit Boards
  
• 800 Bronze Wire
  
• 450 Chromium Transistors
  
• 100 Aurodium Heatsinks
  
• 375 White Signal Data
  
• 325 Green Signal Data
  
• 75 Blue Signal Data
  
• 500 Kyro (not including kyro between G9 and G12 - which more than doubles this number)
  

All that for $20 - which is roughly equal to 2800 crystals.

100 kyros would normally cost 2800 crystals. So JUST looking at the kyro you save on G13 finishers, that's worth 14,000 crystals - nearly a vault ($100).

Add in the signal data and the relic materials and this is just a stupidly good deal, relative to typical prices.

Cara is good in several teams, not the least of which is MM. Mando and Greef are clutch for the LV counter most noteably but LOTS of other counters as well. IG11 and Kuill will both be luxury relics for me - I've always wanted them at relic but could never justify prioritizing them - they'll go great on a dash team or droid team.

You'll get use out of all these characters with or without zetas. Zetas should not be the deciding factor here. It's a lot quicker to put a zeta on someone than it is to gear 5 characters from G9 to R5. Zeta later - jump on the deal if you have the money and inclination.

Already got BAM, but will be getting the pack to upgrade all of the characters to R5. I have most of the zetas already on. Sweet deal.

Would love to do LSB for Crystals...

It's still insane value compared to other packs. I have BAM and all but Cara at relic levels so probably won't buy this especially this side of Christmas, which doesn't make too much sense given the target audience for these packs.

£20 is a great price and if it was a nightsister pack or phoenix I'd bite their hand off. (Un)fortunately, depending on who's perspective, they have set the bar and expectation with the £10 packs for GLs so anything less is naturally going to feel worse value.

Also, I have heard that there's a Cantina Energy "Zeta Chase" coming up. You should be able to score a few extra zetas there, if that's your major concern.

Will we still be able to purchase the bundle if we already have BAM unlocked? When the Starkiller bundle was available, it never came up for me, which i assumed was because i already had Starkiller unlocked. Like others here, i have BAM, but scraped by with low gear reqs and would love to have R5 Mando, Greef, and Cara (Kuill and IG11 wouldnt be bad either)

I think the reason the starkiller pack wasn't available to people with starkiller is because it would give you nothing of value (since the pack gave you all the characters that you already had at or below the relic levels you already had them at). I was able to buy the Raddus pack last time even though I already had raddus and all the pilots at 7*. I bought it because it brought several characters to R5 for me that I really wanted to have at R5. I'm expecting the same to be true of this pack. I have BAM and Mando at R5 already, but the other characters are all G12 or below.

Was hoping someone would parse this out so I could see it and share w/ my guild. I don't encourage them to spend money, but these LSB are a good value, and I think this right here highlights it. Add to that the time it takes to accumulate all that crap, my time is way more valuable than $20 right now. Easy win, even with r8 BAM already, I don't have the others at G13 even.

Yes, this is like unlocking a Conquest character even if you can't afford to gear him right now. Seize the value, capitalize on it when you can. It's ok if they sit, you'll hate yourself later if you pass it up.
