Compensation LST mistake/issue (incorrectly labeled)

The Kyber tier LST, 7 stars, relic 6, all abilities to level 7, that we received as compensation is incorrectly labeled.

I will preface by saying that it states in a prior blog post, that standard LSTs won't give zeta materials, however, this information is old and the ingame item displays incorrect and unclear information. The ingame display should be the standard upon which you trust, not a blog post. 

If you view the LST from the inventory page and go to a unit to apply it, it will show non-zeta upgrades to level 7 and if an ability has a zeta on the 7th level, will display level 6. However, if you go to a specific unit who has a level 7 zeta, such as Shin Hati, Marrok or Master Qui-Gon, it will show in the LST menu that the associated ability will go up to level 7. If you apply it, this does not happen. Not only is this incorrectly communicating what you get (you do not get the zeta and it does not communicate this), it's also simply incorrect, as it only levels that ability to 6 (despite saying and showing 7). If it correctly displayed in all menus, or clearly communicated ingame that you do not get the zeta, this wouldn't be an issue.

This is extremely misleading and for people who do not read the blogs, may well hurt them. The reality is that most players don't read the blogs, so the ingame information should accurately and correctly communicate what it gives in all menus. Regardless of the fact it shows correctly in the inventory, it does not if you go to the unit directly and press the token button at the top, which is the method many players use to assign an LST if they already know who they want it on, myself included. I see no reason to scroll the list of all eligable options in an almost any unit LST if I know who I want it on now.

Attached are 4 images showing what the LST inventory menu shows (the correct information), the unit before the LST is applied, what the LST menu inside of the unit's personal page shows (the incorrect information) and what you get. 

For a compensation, for issues that aren't even fully fixed and regarding a lack of response to overwhelming player feedback, this is really dissapointing. The fact that this compensation is incorrect and misleading is almost insulting. If you're going to compensate for a mistake or failure, you should make absolutely certain that your compensation isn't a mistake by itself, like this one.

  • They have it built in to state if it will provide the zeta or not. 

    Some toons have abilities that don't have zetas on lvl 7, others do. It becomes too wordy to state x toons will get lvl 7 and y toons will go to lvl 6. 

    The clearest way to say if you will get a zeta or not, (instead of assuming cause it brings it lvl 7 you get it,) is stating this LST applies the zeta. Which they do. Could they add the line, this LST doesn't apply zetas/omi? Sure, but currently they dont, and you dont need to be on the forums to see if it will apply them.

    This isn't a full failure on CG's part, this is also on the players for not looking for the "this includes zetas" on the side.
