All key cards obtained (first in a while I have done this) so wasn't that bad after all

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.

DC farming isn't that bad when not caring about feats
Enter hit auto repeat.

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 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.

I wish that worked on mine.

Edit: NVM I figured out my issue

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.

In the words of the ancient philosopher, "iPhone drools, Android rules."

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.

Also having fun on conquest...i dont have the teams for the gold crate...but am going forward as possible and trying as many quests as possible. Rewards are fine and some places i actually had fun planning the path and the teams i would use...
I just "accept" we cannot all get the gold crate...and aim to improve every conquest...

I’ve enjoyed this conquest more than many of the others recently, and may hit red crate for the first time, but I’d still like the global feats for teams dropped a little. I’d rather see two “win 20 matches with ….” with half tickets each than one “win 40 matches with…” just to provide more variety.

Be careful what you ask for ;-)

and they will give you "2 win 20 matches with" and take away another feat...

No need to worry, doing so will mean we could finish conquest sooner because stamina problem will be cut in half compared to ‘do this 40 times’ feats. So unfortunately, i don’t see it happening.

However, I found those 40 times feats somewhat enjoyable when the team is strong enough to be used 4 times a day during my regular conquest against a variety of teams instead of farming a very specific node where it works. I still needed about 10 days to finish the feat, but i was having fun playing instead of going to the same boring node and press auto. On top of that, it really gave a ‘theme’ to conquest trilogy by forcing me to use a specific team.

win 40 times with UFUs is far better than, "win 40 times with every Han" or some other single team CG usually loads in because there are so many UFUs in the game. When we get the opportunity to do multiple feats at the same time it isn't so bad. But, there's still the grind and based on previous conquest history, if we find a workaround to complete something "easier", CG will put a fix in to make it not easy the next two times. That could change though, maybe possibly.

there are so many UFUs in the game

Yeah, Rey or JTR as lead (depending on opponent) allows you 3 Resistance UFUs + Ben Solo + some random 5th, who isn't really necessary. I used Fulcrum, but there are plenty of others to try. That squad is strong enough to use in making progress and not only in repeating lower nodes.

On top of that you have one sector with the 300 Purge requirement and another with an Inq kills requirement plus Inquisitors are also useful in making forward progress. You shouldn't need more than 6-10 battles from the non-Inquisitor UFUs to get this sorted.

Of course that assumes you have Inqs. They've been out for a while and CG was crystal clear that they're an important squad which will get repeated use, so a lot of people will have them relic'd. If you don't, I get it, but for those who do there's 3 feats pretty easily done either just with that squad or almost entirely with that squad.

Inqs really do go a long way in most Conquest battles. With them at relics, you shouldn't have any problem with the UFU/40 feat.

Agree.

I also did the "no tank" feat with Inqs. They're a really useful squad in this Conquest.
