Hard Nodes, Ships 2.0, and Stars and Gear.
CG I understand you have to make the money to keep the game running. That being said whatever you set the rng at for hard nodes is abmyssal. 10 runs ona hard node and not 1 shard. Its even worse on the nodes that offed a ship and toon shard.
I dont expect a shard every drop but this is getting ridiculous. Out of the basic 5 run on a hard node over past week on 3 different toons I netted a total of 4 toons. This is not counting the extra 5 I buy from frustration when I dont even get 1 shard out of 5 runs. This is really driving me to stop buying energy refreshes and save them for cantina refreshes.
Ever since ships 2.0 I dropped from 50 to 100 to barely making the 200s. The one thing I noticed is the huge amount of 4 and 5 star capital ships. Sure you could chalk it up to players not having the ships to complete the challenges to level up the capital ship. That is until you see these same guys running 5 and 6 star fleets. So the challenges to level up the capital ships shouldnt be a problem.
I watched a YT video thay says now it pays to have your capital ship at lower stars. I mean this is the biggest baddest ship yet my 6 star exec is weaker then a 4 star home one. My tarkin is also g10. I got owned by a 130k 4 star home one led team of 130k and I am usually sitting between 170k to 180k depending on the ships. Whatever hidden nerfs were put in place has sucked the fun out of fleet for me. Right now as long as I can maintain my 1k fleet rewards for my zeta investments. I have disengaged from fleet anything atm excluding the grueling daily challenges.
I have a 5 star G11 Sion and it wont allow me to place gear saying he has to be 6 stars before it can be placed. I understand this and felt that it wasn't that bothersome. This was right up until I saw a Zeta on a 3 star Bastila. If gear is held back by star level then so should Zetas. It is a trump ability of the same caliber as having a full G11 or G12 set. This is wrong and the arguements that abilities aren't tied to stars doesnt apply here since we are talking about Zetas which are above beyond regular abilities.
Any response about any of this @CG_TopHat
