CG outdid themselves this conquest

Yeah, I was wrong about the difficulty of this one. I still have three global feats left (NS, Booming Voice, Massively Overpowered) and two of them are nearly done (NS = 34/40, BV = 53/60). I can finish up NS late Wed/early thurs. I'll finish up BV in a half hour when I get my changeover and can buy more energy. It's at most 2 battles.

Don't remember how long MO takes, but IIRC it was quick.



All the more reason to make those nodes simmable. No progress on feats, but no sitting around while your game autos a battle.

In fact, that's what makes it so annoying: it's not like once I'm done with feats I'm going to enter the battle with a squad that has any chance to lose. They're trying to wear you out with boredom, which is, again, the opposite of fun.

There is literally no reason for those nodes not to be simmable from day one. People will still fight the battles there for the feat progress, but whenever you feel like you're done with feats, just start spending the sim tickets. Right now CG is making us hate Conquest (even more?) for no reason at all. There's no game balance reason. There's no coding reason. They just decided that they want their players to be bored and frustrated.

It's honestly silly.

I got red crate. If I was able to sim battles, i would probably spend crystals on conquest energy refreshes to farm dc stuff. But consider how fun it is to press auto and wait 18 times a day (6 battles per refresh), i stopped doing that a few conquests ago.

Just finished red crate. I was pessimistic on this one when I first saw the feats (as I often am when I first see the feats for a new conquest) but it ended up being very manageable. CG threw us a few softballs on this one - not the least of which was the TD combo disks. I was sure that would never come back.

I did spend more energy on disk swaps this time than I probably ever have. I didn't like that - but apparently it didn't slow me down too much. Overall it was fun.

8/10 - would conquest again.

I got a lot more value this time from the plus pass, ha.

Yes I also found disk swapping to be much more frequent/necessary on this one.

Enter hit auto repeat.

I would not mind auto these battles if they would fix the silly "phone goes to sleep in the middle of it" thing.

I use some gaming thing that came preloaded on my Samsung that locks the screen but keeps the phone on.

Well, one-up for Android users. If anybody knows how to create an iOS shortcut that quickly turns on/off auto-lock, please enlighten me.

I hit the gold crate yesterday and I'm pretty happy with that. I thought this Conquest was fine. I found Inquisitors to be really useful, along with some helpful data discs.

I know this has been mentioned elsewhere, but what is the deal with the Tusken squad just pausing the action when you use them? Maybe it is the memory on my device (and I have cleared the cache), but I take them in against IT and every now and then it waits a few seconds for some momentum or DOTs to load and then continues on. I don't think I've timed out because of this, but it is a pain to play.
