Galactic War requirements for simming

Lol no

Can we please get the requirement to sim GW changed? Either make GW easier or reduce the required number of times to complete to 50. If you consider the fact that 150 completions is the equivalent of at least 5 months of winning every single day, you’re looking at an average of 8-10 months of playing the game before you can sim the table. Ludicrous.

This is seriously NOT an unreasonable request. Don't let anyone discourage you from asking. I used to get flamed for asking about removing SIM tickets... gasp... look what happened.

How is it selfish to expect everyone to progress in the game? GW is a roster test. Letting them just sim it removes that challenge from the game.

Once you hit 82, it is no longer a test of anything other than patients. GW no longer requires zFinn resistance to complete it. It is no great accomplishment or a way to test new teams any longer. There is no reason to require the 150 completions... it is one of the largest, unneeded time-sinks in the game now & this is why they allow us to SIM it. Why would CG want to irritate new (potential long term) revenue sources?

I’m level 85 and have 40/150 completions. It is nothing but an irritation at this point.

We had to do it, you can too.

That is never a valid reason.

I’m not asking them to remove it, just to reduce it. Why “lol, no”? Absolutely no good reason not to.

Actually no good reason to lower it, they chose 150 as the achievement level to sim , simming Gw is to reward players for developing their rosters to the point of being able to consistently handle Gw . Lowering it to fifty is funny, because players that aren’t even mid 70s can hit that target,

Actually there is a great reason to lower to 0. It is only half of the requirement. The other half is being lvl 85. No one at lvl 70 is meeting that requirement, if my math is still solid.

Interesting. I’m 85 and have 40/150 completions. I get what the devs are saying, but 8-10 months of play before simming? That is still ridiculous. The best reason to lower it is to not have 20-30 minute daily mundane element of the game.

Also according to this

Just being level 85 doesn't mean you have a developed enough roster to consistently beat galactic war.

There is also the achievement to consider, you get bonus stuff for completing it 150 times, I don't remember what it is and how valuable it is but it is free stuff.

This would be like me saying my guild has HAAT on farm haven't failed since the first time we completed it I shouldn't have to wait 30 more raids to 7 star GK I should just get him now

It’s obvious that there are a lot of divided opinions on this subject, and I can see that both sides have valid points both for and against reducing the required number of completions before simming.

What about this as a compromise: create checkpoints on the GW table. Say, every 3rd node is a checkpoint. Once you have reached a checkpoint “X” number of times you can sim up to that checkpoint. That would reduce some of the tedium, but still require working on improving teams for the higher nodes, and even allow for focusing on more difficult battles. This is a possible scenario = node 3 checkpoint - 25 completions; node 6 checkpoint - 50 completions; node 9 checkpoint - 75 completions; node 12 checkpoint - 150 completions.

You know what's more mundane? Rancor raid. Takes me less time to solo it than a full run of GW. Might as well let me sim the Rancor too eh?
