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

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.

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.

Yeah, I was a little curious about the cost breakdown myself so figured I'd put it out there. Glad it helps, even if it just saved some people a little time!

If you're ok with spending some money on the game, LSB should be what you buy. Even if you only get one relic 5, that's probably better than anything else you could spend that money on in the game.

I have BAM already, and all the prerequisites at GL12. The temptation is there, but I think I'll resist since they aren't unlocking anything new. If it were sold at $10 I'd probably bite.

So they are putting 4 to 8 toons in these packs at a price point between $10 and $30 so far. Let’s take the midpoints of those and say 6 for $20. There are about 260 toons in swgoh and let’s say 1/2 are bundle-able where the others are too new or valuable to go into a bundle. That gives you about $400 for 1/2 the toons in this game to R5.

I think that it’s helpful to look at the big picture. Is that worth $400 to you, maybe or maybe not. Basically if you are ever going to spend money on the game it should be for LS bundles. If you should buy all of them is up to you.

No, it's supposed to be available tomorrow, December 13

Oh really? I was certain they said the 12th…. :D

I thought that too! But looking at the post, it definitely says the 13th and there's no edit flag - so I'm glad it wasn't just me reading things that weren't there :D
