Food for thought
Relics are great
As a F2P player, I personally welcome relics with open arms as they're seemingly astonishingly easy to farm (from what I've seen in my own guild, shard & GAC) - I haven't actually reached g13 with any characters yet so am playing it by sight/ear.
I've actually seen a steadily easier farm, mainly through guild/TB/TB mk2/gac tokens and shard currency, in g12 gear. G13 can still be evasive, but it's certainly there for active guilds and smart farmers. I've managed to get more characters to g12 this year compared to the previous by far and it hasn't concluded yet.
I think a lot of people on these forums are playing down bad RNG to a fault with the system CG has in place. I'm by no means saying its perfect, as I myself still struggle to assemble a stun gun in less than a week, but its certainly better than it was.
Just thought I would put my 2 pennies in as theres a lot of negativity toward the new updates that I personally dont see as necessary. In understand the "issue" lies more with P2P and the argument being they've wasted their 3/4 year investment because relics is undoing the set 'meta'. Dont mean to tread on toes, but what are exactly expecting them to do? Not release any more updates? Keep the same boring mirror matches? Say no to adding more characters for fear of upsetting people who bot Sith Empire? This opens diversity in the game for F2P AND P2P, if you're roster doesnt already have certain characters or factions up to scratch that is by far CGs problem, youre spending to get ahead at the end of the day and you alone chose what the spend your money on.
Inb4 no whales no game, fairly certain people will still spend regardless of what a few hundred people on here say.
