CG outdid themselves this conquest

I’ve noticed that enfys nest isn’t on carth teams anymore. I’ve gotten red crate every time. And I will this time too. But that’s just one more attempt from CG to stick it to us

The sector 2 mini boss has nest on the team. CG gave us a nest node with a nice long timer. I think they're sticking it to us wrong.

Although I didn’t really need a nest team in sector 2 this time, you are correct. But I usually like to have one available in each sector to farm those apply x feats in as few battles as possible.

Except that there are ways around most of the feats with the new units at low gear.

The NS feat can be done with G12 MT, AV, Daka, Zombie... and G9 3* Merrin.
The Tuskens can be done with relic Uro, Raider, Shaman... and G9-11 Chieftain and Warrior.
The CJ and Cal kills can be done with the Massively OP disk or with JMLs granted ability... at G1 and 3* .

It is dependent on having older toons at high stars/gear levels, but doesn't actually require the new units at investment beyond what is easily possible at this point.

As for Hutt Cartel, there's newer shiny units CG wants people to invest in. Jabba is, what, 6 months old, it should come as no surprise that they're pushing other units for the feats. Considering the most recent marquees it's likely the next conquest season will need tuskens/momentum and UFU again too.

Well anyone who has been playing this game 2.5 years or less, or really since GLs were introduced, don't even have those old toons at g12 like you mentioned. Building up NS in the last 2+ years didn't make sense for resources. Maybe Daka only if you have SLKR. Same for Tuskens, you might have 1 built up because of LV or Jabba, unlikely a full squad at anything decent.

Yes the JML cheese can work, but incredibly annoying it comes to that, and the fact that they still double dip on Global + Sector feats for these teams is harsh. I can understand having some global feat tied to one of the new marquee teams, but essentially having 100% of them? Give me a break.

And a 6 month old GL (still the newest) that still has 3 non-accelerated characters required on top of the other relics needed, to not have any feats..is still ridiculous.

Sorry, but I have to disagree. NS have been good for quite a long time. They have been annoying on D and a nice counter for GG BB-8. Of course they can’t compete with a GL but there haven’t been many teams that have been able, especially after the big nerf.

Also, NS and tuskens now both have assault battles, Merrin will raise NS in all modes and the tuskens can be used against the Krayt. Oh, and all the tusken GCs.

That’s all ignoring the use of Daka and Zombie with SLKR, and the need for AV for GAS.

And of course these old units only need accelerated gear to get to g12, so that’s quick and easy.

And on top of that is CGs shoehorning new units into every game mode making these feats inevitable as soon as Chief and Warrior, and Merrin dropped. Anyone who’s played the game more than a year could have seen this coming.

But then what would I know, I’ve only been playing for 2.5 years, since after the first GLs dropped, and have these toons at the levels quoted specifically ready for this conquest…

Maybe that makes me a bad player.?‍♂️

I count 5 global ‘factions’ feats: ns (doable with undergeared new marquee), tuskens (doable with undergeared new marquee), aphra ds droids (as last conquest, so not ‘new marquee’), unaligned (doable with inqs, so not ‘new marquee’), cere/cal (doable with jml, new marquee).
So you have 60% new marquee, 20% very difficult if you don’t have jml and 40% doable without buying any new marquee shards by having the rest of the roster, which is not new.

You do need a broad roster to pull it off though, which was always what conquest was about.

This is by far the worst set of Conquest to play, ever. Coupled with all the BS amount of time needed to put into the game, I’ve never came so close to entertaining quitting the grind. Absolutely ridiculous direction CG is taking this game.

Hard disagree. Easiest conquest in a long time.

Generally speaking it isn't that bad...
I have most of it done already..
The bugs are a bit annoying but once you get past that it's fine..

Get some good disks and it's really easy....
Ufu thing was annoying though..
Don't give up....

Ufu was the easiest part. Finished that one early yesterday.

I don't know if I'd go that far - but it's a lot better than initial impressions led me to believe.

It’s rather comical how i used to make it half way through sector 4 before getting stuck. This GC i’m blocked by GI at the end of sector 2. None of the viable counters can get me the win. 7+ years of playing with over 9 mil GP and this is what I’ve been reduced to.

Well played CG! Another example why my guild, and others, are collapsing. Long time players, many paying customers, have had enough of the nonsense and left. Many others have quit spending even reduced amounts of money for essentially the “lack of return on investment.”

I’ve stayed F2P for six years, inclined to accept what came with being a F2P, and kept my opinions, and my money, to myself. But i’m finally throwing the kitten flag. Keep pushing your player base down this stupid path you want us all to go and you will push yourselves out of a job.

What squads have you tried against that Inquisitors squad?

What discs do you have?
