Is there a crafting method to ease this carbonite crunch? I just r7 gas & was planning out my grind for GL. Im going to run out of carbonite circuit board materials very soon. These materials were built up over 4 years playing and they were used up pretty fast. If there is no clear plan to remove this bottleneck i see no point in using up the remaining materials i have to gear up either faction

We were obviously going to burn through it and run out. When the new raid finally drops, hopefully it will grant 100-120 carbonite per player in the 21-30 range and no less than 60 carbonite for the 41-50, preferably more like 75. This assumes the the raid is ticket-intensive, a bit more than HSTR (so about 130k-140k tickets per heroic attempt), and therefore an average guild will be doing one per week and highly active guilds will be doing one per 5 days. If the raid requires fewer (or more), they can adjust the carbonites to scale at a rate of about 25 circuit boards per 30k tickets required. If they do something like that (which they obviously should) to fix this unsustainable problem, then we just have to last another 6 months with our current stores. For whales, they've probably run dry already. For many of the rest of us, that's either not an issue at all or it's at least reasonably manageable. Missed the Q&A? CG just said they scrapped the raid and have no new content to offer. Basically they’ve been doing nothing for the past 2 years since HSTR. Except for releasing paywall characters that is. I'm looking for something in this post that isn't a mischaracterization but I'm not finding it yet.

? I see a 100 for 500 crystals in weekly shipments but? Do you mean buying the lower gear?

yes, they are talking about buy low level gear in shipments for coins. I'm not near that level of crunch yet, but I have been doing that before they released relics anyway, just to keep like 200-400 of every gear present in my inventory. you never know.

Almost done with Kylo requirements, and still have wiggle room.

oh, I buy everything for credits from that store, so 4 per store time-refresh. Which is why I wanted a notification/symbol for the gear there that can be scavenged into relic stuff. I mean, I'll keep buying them all anyway lol but some people may have less credits, idk. Still a good idea, but they didn't answer my q in the q and a. waahh
