CG are you just going to stay radio silent about the bait and switch

Looks like it. They got the money their part of the job is done as far as they’re concerned. Won’t stop people from lapping everything up next era, no doubt.

I won’t ever buy a conquest pass again. Every char stuck at 110 and we’ve only just started chapter 3, how are mk7 Aurek not part of conquest pass? Why am I paying you £20 every 28 days for loads of materials I can’t even use because I’m gated behind mk7 Aurek. I could go F2P and literally get the same result.

Maybe if we contact Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman or the Saudi Public Investment Fund, we can convince them to force ethical business practices to all under EA.

I think you might mean the episode pass. Thankfully they haven’t messed with the conquest pass YET - although I’m sure it’s on its way. Probably screaming into the void but voting with your wallet is the right play. Still think most people will just bend over and take it and continue next era.

Agreed with OP. I bought the recent episode passes and thought it was good value since it improved my qol with the game but after this one I really don't see the point anymore. 

EA is running things now, so CG isn't allowed to speak of such things. nor prioritize quality assurance.

If the game was unplayable tomorrow, EA's response would be "but they can still spend money on the game, right?"

100% agree. This is fraudulent behavior and CG needs to fix this. In the first 2 eras buying episode pass and spending crystals to get everyone to 5 stars would ensure all era characters reach relic equivalent level. Now spending the same brings them only to g12.

CG, you need to add 4500 Mk7 Aurek and 350 Mk7 Masterwork Performance Core to the rewards to make this right. If you decide that paying $60 on 3 episode passes and 36K crystals on shard bundles should no longer be enough to get all era characters to relic, you have to communicate this before making the change.

The absolute lack of communication is disgusting at this point.  I even went through the tedious process of contacted the helpdesk in game.  Their response was to link to the make good post from the last era and said it would be coming soon.  I responded that the post they linked to was indeed from the last era and over a month old and I seriously doubted that it was actually happening again since we have heard absolutely nothing.  The response was to tell me I have good intuition, the power that be have said absolutely nothing, and then closed my ticket and gave me the feedback link.

They absolutely don't care at this point.  We all got screwed.  The only way to get everyone to level 110 is to buy the episode pass.  Buying packs to upgrade stars will not get you there.  I would say not to bother in the future and save your crystals and cash for something else, assuming this game even survives this nonsense.

The episode pass will not get you past 110.  That's where I am now with all 3 purchased this era.  I have all 5 star characters including Rotta at 110.  Can proceed without more real money which I refuse to do.

My issue is how it feels CG just changed the deal without telling us, before if you got everyone to 5* you got them all the relics, if you only got the 5 required for the journey you missed out on one, and the Episode pass effectively made it cheaper, you had to spend like half as many crystals or no crystals with the Pass +, but it sucks they changed the, oh you get them to relics part without even letting us know 

Personally, I don't even care about the LSTS anymore, so I did this mainly for the reliced units, and CG changed it just coz.
