For me I do love a challenge. I think this community really shines when there is a challenge and people who have beat it give insights to squads, kill orders and such.
But there’s differences right?
I don’t want to Solo the Sith raid out the gate.
But an event that requires my fav faction or certain toons that I suped up I expect to beat it but give props to devs who make me think about and play around with different comps.
Also with mythic events I don’t mind that opponents are loaded with tm or tenacity because it’s a bonus. ESP the legendary mythics. You got the legendary toon 2 zetas can be recouped in a few days.
If my team is g12 max arena mods with a bunch of zetas and I’m getting my keester handed to me there’s probably a bug. But like Kyno my roster is pretty deep over 2 years playing this game. And if I’m having a crazy time that means the forums are on fire. (Not trying to sound conceited here)
I do think the immediacy of this game has changed, the stakes feel like they are so much higher for other players. Idk if that’s the “missing out” factor or just how the game moved along. This started with CLS I think, and then towards LSTB where CLS was required. I think it elevated the stakes of what happens when you miss out. So with one toon released you had the possibility of missing out raid rewards and a requirement with lstb not to mention falling far in arena. But there are always counters. And I think that’s when guilds kind of had those toon requirements come in and have members feeling slighted.
A great example of this was the Yoda legendary (this how I actually learned how to farm correctly)
Wasn’t eligible the 1st time. Unlocked at 5* the 2nd time. When the 3rd time rolled around yoda was nuts! I think there was like a level cap increase or something. I couldn’t beat it at all. Like no shot, it was so frustrating. Devs scaled it back and I played and beat it like way too easy didn’t feel rewarding at all. But there were no stakes to it. My guild didn’t cut me for not having him. Same for palp, I didn’t get him at all till the 2nd time. The counter to that it’s a game and this game has the hard task of trying to cater to a very ranged player base. As a recruiter I would love for a way to have newer players to up theor rosters faster. (Maybe PHX as a starter team) but as a player at my level I don’t want to just sim this latest event for Ewoks I already have 7* and mods that will not even go on pilots I don’t use. It’s a hard balance and I think the devs do a great job with it.
Tldr- time and/or money will advance you in this game, choose which works best for you. Events always come back. We build our rosters everyday, brick by brick.
Ps. Sorry for the long post. I am doing my best to procrastinate studying for the GRE. :)
Good luck on your GRE, oh.. one word, decafe lol couldn't resist.
