Character Shards

After each era, we have six characters ranging from 3-5* (I know there are more). It's impossible to level up Clay Marco (or any character from this era) to 7* in two weeks with energy, even if I retry. Also, the era's assault battles don't yield enough shards to level up all six characters to 7* in three months. Also, getting a 4-star character from this era only gives two R6 tokens (a 5-star character only gives three R6 tokens).

It's time to revise the shard drop rate for f2p players. Otherwise, after each era, we'll have an increasing number of unleveled characters, and the frequency of obtaining characters from the Guide will only increase until several years after their release.

Increase the number of tokens received from 5 for 4-star and 5-star characters (2 and 3, respectively) to 7-9. Also, increase the shard drop rate for all characters. Otherwise, the 1-2 shards we get every 10 battles will take us too long to level up to 7*. And we'll also need energy to level up from G12 to G13.

    You need to learn that nodes can be refreshed. If you really care about starring something quickly, that is what you need to do.

    Second of all, f2p have always had to pick and choose where to put resources. The talk around the new system was about getting more use out of marquees and starting people in the same place, but the reality is, I suspect, that before long f2p are going to have unused marquees sitting in their roster just like before. They will just be sitting at higher gear.

    So choose what factions you want to invest in.

    Imperial Remnants all the way! Loving the look of Commander Snowman, can't wait to have him - so much so, in fact, that he is the only marquee ever that I am saving copious amounts of crystals to hopefully take to seven star immediately, as well as relic mats and gear. Of course he's the last marquee to be given, though...

    I'm a f2p player with almost 4 million, and having played through old marquees and the new eras, I vastly enjoy the new eras over the marquees, because the legendary characters are available to get at 4 stars, which gives us a reason to invest our crystals, and gives us 2 kyber tokens to boot. I feel much less left behind as I did when every marquee and legendary was locked behind a paywall.

  • Why should it be possible to farm Kleya to 7* in 2 weeks? Why does this need to be addressed?
