I hate grand arena mods

It's part of the mode. TW and GAC have your roster locked when you enter.

If you feel your needing to chnage mods that much, it probably means you need to work more on your mod depth.

Much like building 1 or 2 really good teams wont do everything in game, only a few sets of good mods will not make the cut either

Is there any way we can at least "fix" our mods before Player Lock like we can in TW by exiting and re-joining? For example I noticed after I joined grand arena I hadn't moved mods back over to KRU who had none. I subsequently fixed before event and matchmaking but because mods lock when you enter and no way to exit now I am stuck with no mods on KRU the entire three rounds.

I saw explanation of mods locking on enter so player can then switch mods again to play a raid or TW event without messing up his GAC mods which makes sense. But why not give us the option of exiting and rejoining like in TW and locking on rejoin in case we catch an error we want to fix before "Player Loclk"?

The dev team have stated that matchmaking starts when a player joins, so it's not as simple to add a feature where we can leave and rejoin, as that would mess with matchmaking.

Why can’t I modify my mods in grand arena? It’s stupid honesty, I don’t know who am I gonna face, and I have to stick with the mods I entered grand arena for the entire 3 rounds. I’ve seen yt videos in which mods can be modified, but why can’t my mods be modified in grand arena. Please CG stop blocking grand arena moding.

I think the alternative would be worse.

Depending on what you are suggesting you could either remod on the defensive phase of each round remod at anytime.

The problem with the first is that your opponent would also be doing the same so, you really wouldn't know what they have either so planning wouldn't be much easier.

The problem with the 2nd is that you could save one team worth of God mods and just refuse them on every offensive team. And so could your opponent. So basically removes mod depth as a requirement.

The last problem is th assess t with either option, you could remove all your mod sc from your top 80 characters before matchmaking to be matched with weaker opponents and then put them back on while setting defense or attacking.

The mod lock was put in place to prevent players from tricking the matchmaking. You can not like it but it has a good reason to be that way.

There are so many things that could/should be improved in GAC mods.

1st of all, when you look up your opponent from GAC menu, it should show roster that you are locked with and mods that you are locked with. I had many matchups, where opponents demodded their important toons during def setup phase..Also when you see r7 GAS in their roster and then there is g11 GAS on D...

Also ppl asked for ability to rejoin GAC the same way they can rejoin TW for maybe a year?

Also the game says player lock in :(time missing) for over than a year and it does not work like that anymore (it used to)..so..Nothing done with it for over a year, that speaks for itself..

Btw, i like the idea of being able to remod durring each setup phase. (I saw the issues with it (GP matchmaking etc..) but that can be easily solved..(dont count mods to GP for example?)

Then you just have people with really bad mods matched against those with good mods and complaining about that. Currently six dot mods add more gp that low level 5 dot mods so it at least takes mods into account a little. If you remove mods from the matchmaking, you will have more wild variations in players with really bad mods matched against players with god mods.

And my guess is that if you need to remod during defense, you probably don't have a lot of mod depth. So under your suggestion, you would be more likely to face an opponent that has vastly superior mods.

mod depth has nothing to do with it, different counters need different modding, thats all. Also 6dot mods with 10 speed is still garbage compared to 5dot mod with 25 speed. (mod GP does not give you good matchup)

If you need to remod for every fight or every player you meet, then yes roster depth is your problem.

No its not...for example oponent has SLKR - you want to use that GAS fives chewie thing to counter it, so you want your GAS to be hitting hard and to have low protection. Next match, your opponent does not have SLKR and you want to set your GAS on D and mod him for 130k+ protection... How does that mean mod depth problem?

And I`m not trying to complain here, I have won every single GAC match this season...
