Better rewards in GA.

It takes like 30 seconds to set your defenses and like maybe 15 mins to do all of your attacks. It isn't like it is a huge time investment.

Oh, so it doesn't run a month then? Just 16 mins and its over? It's a month long event and should have rewards that reflect that.

You get plenty during - small coins each match. Rewards per round. And then major coinage at the end.

Ok let's say it takes an hour instead of 15 minutes. That's 12 hours total. Eh.

Thanks for all the responses! It's good to hear multiple perceptions of how you see and play. I spend about an hour just going over their characters and mods. Hstr takes less than a hour.
So I expect a part that takes a month to play would have a lot more. Hopefully their just working out the kinks, ect, before they release more rewards and currency. I mean 1 month of play and at the end, 2 days spending in the store for 15-30 pieces of g13. Rrrrrrright! Then it sits till next GA. Maybe they should consider adding the currency to PvE? Thanks for your opinions and cheers!!!!!!

TB is the same thing with GEC.

For most end game players, raids last about an hr and provide better rewards overall for doing absolutely nothing.

E.g HPit - do nothing and get guild store currency, shard shop currency, and quite a big of generally useful gear salvage.

Admittedly though, HAAT rewards are generally poor across the board.

Except that you get a small amount in TW and in HSTR as well (maybe also at lower tiers, I don't know that)

The big problem is that the GAC currency doesn't really buy anything. You're not giving up 25 shield generators for 25 Kyrotechs... You're giving up 100 of those other gear pieces for the chance to buy an undetermined amount of Kyrotechs, 6e Mod slicing mats, other slicing mats, and finally an extra Zeta mat (four per month).

I made it to Kyber, so I got 3200 or so currency for my division (7)... for a months work. I've got about 6000 lifetime GAC currency.

They're currently GAC priced at 70 currency per 1 kyrotech salvage. Are you kidding me? The five weeks of GAC exhibitions will give me what? 85 Kyrotechs? Not enough for a g13 finisher nor a single Fleshlight salvage for that g13 finisher.

I'd give back every piece of GAC currency for a return to the old rewards any and every day of the week.

THIS! Overall I think the rewards are "okay to good", they did add Omegas in place of a missing Zeta, so that is not the big insufficiency here. The big insufficiency is the missing gear.

We used to get 25 pieces of good gear for a win. Now we get 700 (not counting event end) coin, and as has been brought up many times 700 buys virtually nothing, aka as per above, 10 kyrotech, or a small amount of other gear, which you should not even entertain buying because there is a HUGE kyrotech bottleneck already and growing.

Yes, there has been some other stuff added which helps the overall "package" and lesson this insufficiency, like crystals, etc, but there is just not enough gear awarded for a month long event plain and simple. What I suggested before was instead of giving us small amounts of "useless" pieces for promotions (exc. holo's those are very useful and needed), give us those small amounts in things we need, Guns, Cuffs, Eyeballs, Callers, Furnaces, MK4 Zaltin, the things we used to get. Then we could use all the currency for Kyro and not feel the insufficiency of not getting any other gear @CG_SBCrumb

The gear was great (guns or carbs) or terrible (shields).

You can't ignore the end currency. It's a bonus that never existed before GAC and you get it for no additional work.

The biggest problems is that zetas, IMO, are the most valuable thing in the game. They've taken them away, 6e Mod materials (valuable), and gear that ranges from meh to YAS. We get a chance to get very little out of the shop for those losses.

Completely garbage trade off, IMO.
